If Bangalore Traffic Had a Personality – A Love Letter from a Tired Commuter

Every city has its quirks, but Bangalore? It has traffic. Not just congestion, not just delays—an actual character that seems to have a life, mood, and ego of its own.
If traffic here had a personality, it’d be the kind that thrives on chaos. The friend who says, “I’m five minutes away,” but shows up after you’ve already left. The unpredictable ex who appears just when you’re finally moving on. It lingers. It tests you. And just when you think you’re in the clear—it finds you again, around the next corner.
Whether you’re trying to reach Indiranagar from Koramangala, or brave the dreaded stretch from Silk Board to HSR, the reality is the same: Bangalore traffic demands time, energy, and an unhealthy level of patience
The Daily Grind: An Emotional Timeline
Let’s break it down:
Stage 1: Optimism – You leave home thinking, Today might be different.
Stage 2: Realization – You hit the first signal and remember it never is.
Stage 3: Bargaining – You check multiple map routes, none of which offer salvation.
Stage 4: Acceptance – You settle into your auto or cab and stare blankly out the window, late… again.
The sad part? Most of us have normalized it. We’ve woven this chaos into our routines. We’ve accepted being late as standard, losing hours each week to a traffic situation that seems immune to solutions.
But here’s the thing: we shouldn’t have to accept it.
