Re: Re: kashmir? by abc_xyz abc_xyz on Feb 13, 2013 02:51 PM I think you never saw what it is like driving in Bangalore between silk board and Kempegowda bus stand at evening 7pm on a weekday. You will regret every moment of your life.    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Re: Re: Re: kashmir? by abc_xyz abc_xyz on Feb 13, 2013 03:08 PM Well..that was the Outer Ring Road which is signal free on most of the lenght and is quite decongested as per Bangalore standards. I was talking about the other road that heads straight to the old city center. I have also travelled between Bhelapur and Airport (around 50km too) via Sanpada, Vashi and believe me, it quite ok, after getting used to the Bengaluru traffic. I have lived in all the 4 metros - Bangalore, Chennai,Hyderbaad and Mumbai ...and can easily rate Bangalore's congestion as the worst. Traffic sense wise nothing beats Hyderabad (as there are no rules there). Mumbai and Chennai have a good local train system and have managed the traffic congestion pretty decently.    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: kashmir? by There on Feb 13, 2013 07:56 PM Delhi roads are to be considered as practice tracks before you attempt driving on Hyderabad roads. I do not even understand what purpose the red signals serve in Hyderabad. Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Re: kashmir? by Baingan Bharta on Feb 13, 2013 06:29 PM You can go back to Darbhanga/Jaunpur. Nobody invited you to Mumbai and nobody is forcing you to stay either troy.    Forward   |   Report abuse
Re: kashmir? by Solnishka on Feb 28, 2014 09:40 PM Troy Costa and others! Totally agree! Traffic signals in Hyderabad are just for decoration ….. and nothing more!!! Even the road signs are just for the purpose of practising rangoli!!! And btw . i lived in almost all metros and toured major cities in the world    Forward   |   Report abuse
