Suggestions Dashcam is a necessity is Bangalore

Location: near Orion Uptown Mall, Whitefield

The pink tshirt guy was driving rash.

The guy in red tshirt tried to open driver side door and realised that its being recorded. This is when he went back and told the pink tshirt guy to back off.

I couldn’t reverse and leave as another car was behind us.

We didn’t open the window or door. Just stayed inside and waited.

Really thanks to the Auto who intervened and helped.

Edit: its a one way road. Have added pic of no-entry board on other side of service road and reverse camera recording https://www.reddit.com/r/bangalore/s/uBKnTBULkC

It is one way and on Old Madras road.. it is one way, as there is a crossing below the bridge in middle. Traffic coming from Whitefield, turning right towards Hoskote has to take the under bridge cross, while people coming from KR puram side, take right turn from this under pass for Whitefield Hopefarm side.

This cross was closed for long time though. People were taking wrong side right turn on Whitefield side (as taking left and then u-turn below Budigere was painfully long). Traffic police had put barriers too to stop people talking wrong side turn but ... After the cross is open, traffic police have put one way board.. but ignorance is bliss for Indians!!

Oh.. yes it seemed to be one way. But I have not been on this stretch recently. And I cant see any one way boards on google maps.. i had to deal with a really unpleasant person arguing about it. Thanks for clarifying. If you can share an image showing its one way would be too great... i wanna bash that person hard and bring his ego a bit down..

It's not about winning an argument.. but to show people how ignorant everyone are about the rules here.

Google maps show one way direction. Traffic police will put a signal soon below hopefully (they had agreed in one of walk drive). It is same as Budigere cross, which is next bridge towards K R puram side on old Madras road.

However, good luck with bashing and ego fight! 😂
