Video of Bengaluru traffic situation goes viral

This video has been shared on Instagram by a user named Pankaj Huriya. He told that he had left home for office at around 9:15 in the morning. Normally this distance should have been covered in less time, but due to heavy traffic his car could move slowly on the road for a long time.

In the video, he says while sitting inside the car that even after more than half an hour had passed, he had covered very little distance. Long queues of vehicles were visible on the road, which were moving at a very slow speed.

Traffic jam is an everyday problem in Bengaluru.

In the viral video, Pankaj also showed Google Maps running on the screen of the car. According to the map, they still had about 4.4 kilometers to travel and the estimated arrival time was 10:16. That means it could have taken more than an hour to cover a total distance of just 6.5 kilometres.

After watching this video, many social media users also shared their experiences and said that traffic jam in Bengaluru has now become an everyday problem. Rapidly increasing population, number of vehicles and limited roads are considered to be the major reasons for heavy traffic jam in the city.
