[Resolved]  Bangalore Auto drivers — Bangalore (auto experience)

People are talking more about North Indian being harassed at mumbai. But has anyone ever talked about harassment of non Kannadigas at Bangalore ?

Ask the people who are living there. I am going to present the series of few short stories here and inviting discussion / comments.

Last post was regarding Driving license issue problem.

This is in reference to Auto drivers


Bangalore auto driver is world famous for their cunningness (sorry but I thought it is the best word to describe them.)

once you talk to them in Non-Kannada, they will never ready to go at meter fare. always twice or more than twice to meter rate. Here is a small incidence
One of my known person were going to Chennai on Thursday, was with his wife and 1 year. It was 9.15 pm. They wanted to have an auto from Koramangala, Sarjapur road, Bangalore. They have asked 3 people all said Rs 250/- (whopping 3 times than meter fare). At last we got an auto who agreed to take us to railway station for 1.5 times fare.
They reached station at 10.15 pm and found electronic meter showing Rs 90 /-. The guy taken out two notes of Rs 100 each. Auto person suddenly started asking for Rs 200 /- more than double fare. He denied and auto person started quarreling. He asked for meter card or / and police. Auto driver started threatening and called other auto drivers to join. Seeing many auto driver gathering, He asked his wife to go little far from the place as daughter was just 1 year old. His wife stood 50 meter away from the place. After 5 minutes of quarrel, auto driver snatched both notes and ran away with auto. They were not able to do anything except noting number of auto i.e. KA 02 AA ****.

Auto Drivers — Auto Drivers

Hello Sir,

Me and my colleagues took an auto from Gaondevi to voltus compound,but 2-3 auto drivers came and
stopped the auto. They forced us out of the auto and asked us to take the share auto.
We were in the auto which was taking us by meter fare.These people are not doing dada giri.
I even asked a traffic police men on the duty to help us,but he denied and asked us to go and write a complaint in the office.
How is common man going to survive.

Please help.
I have face lot of annoying incidents with the autowallas. They are number one Bloody S****ers of money and BOP raiser I would say.
They charge money in too injustice way.. One day it was raining(drizzling actually) I asked one autowalla from Ejipura(near Koramangala VRR homes) to Silkboard, normally meter is 28-30rs, I used to give 30, I travel daily twice.
but that day that autowalla asked 150rs!!! is that fair???is that not illegal?
and othe normall day also they charge 50-60rs unnecessarily. That to they threaten us, talks rubbish.
one autodrive came to hit me also once. That too they dont stop where we want to getdown, they stop somewere where they are confortable, ask us to getdown in a harshway.

Their reason for charging more is too silly.

Are govt taking care of there uncultured behaviour of Auto wallas>??????
When they gonna learn lesson???

Atleast they should behave in cultured way with passengers instead they are doing rowdism. They dont ever elder, women or some reputed citizen.

Atleast if they behave in good way, we may feel to give extra if needed.

They just demand money ..jut like criminals ransom!!!
Is there any Justie for citizens????????????????????

When they permit auto driver their license, why dont they train them culturely??

This goes to Bus condutors as well.
Hi i faced problemn yesterday nly...One auto wala was wearing a scarf around his half face i hve to go domlur near dell office from Baghmane tech park dat auto waala agreed wd metre n as soon as he started, his metre started @27rs instead of 17rs. den v arued he didnt responded.When i reach my destination i offered him rs.50 as metre was false n was showing rs.64.den he started misbehaving with us.finally gave him 60buks... i noted down his no.B-9639...Plz anybody should tke sme action against such people who r not honest on deir duty
Its a normal practice that auto driver do not want to talk about meter if your destination is below Marathahalli towards Whitefield. If you know to the local language, you could be lucky, else you are at their mercy.

I took an auto from Kundanhalli gate to BEML layout at 09.30 PM on 18th June. Its is hardly 2KM, the auto driver started withRs 40 and I agreed . We started, the moment he saw me with packets and I told the actual destination in BEML layout the true colour of the auto driver came out.The auto driver was so rude and abusive, and it leaves with a very bad experience about the place and practice.The Auto number was KA 05 3418. Surprisingly The unruly auto driver was using abusive communal comments.There was no
I- card inside the auto to get his name and license number. I strongly believe the government can do a better job to control the never ending story of mis behaving auto driver, after all this is supposed to be cosmopolitan state.
Recently I came across http://excessfare.com seems like someone is trying to do something about these auto drivers. Best part is you can complain using sms too! I have already started using it... I have been harassed by auto drivers of bangalore. If this site will help to reduce such problem, it would be a great help for community.
Today Morning-6th July, 2011, I hire a auto driver to drive from Kodihalli main road to outer ring road.
He asks me to pay Meter + Rs. 20 more and when I denied, he started abusing me.
I appreciate your quick action on the same.

Name : Ameer Ahmed

Today 14-Mar-2012 I took an auto from Old Air Port Raod to Electronics city, Infosys. The guy intially said only Rs. 10 extra. Then after Sony World instead of going straight wen to Jyothinivas college saying he doesnot have gas. Then he went to electronics city. Usually, the meter comes around 160/-. His meter showed 251/- . On top of it, he said, he had an old meter so he showed me up some chart and demanded 350/- + 20/- as he'll not get any passenger on the way back. When I refused he started abusing me like anything infront of Infosys gate. Some of the bus drivers in Infosys supported me and said him he is cheating so, he agreed infront of them to take only 251/- as per the meter. Once they left, he refused to return my change and finnaly took 300/-. Through out behaved very badly with me.
Driver Name:- Umesh
Vehicle No. :- KA 03 A 6218

License No :- Cant took. When he saw me taking snap, He tried to snatch my mobile.
I took an auto from Silk Board Bus stand to Jayangar 9th block (Ragiguda bus stop) at 10 PM. The auto walla asked for double meter.
To my surprise he asked Rs 150 and the meter is certainly tampered. The usual fare will be max Rs.40 for this distance.

Auto No : KA02 6570

The auto driver behaved in such a rude manner and he started quarelling and he was about to man handle me as well.
He was drunk as well.

Please take ncessary actions against this auto wallas.
