The term bike is used incorrectly, in context it should be Cycle. I don't see that many bike(cycle) users.

In Bengaluru, my car has been dented and damages several times. I have been sued many times for the faults of someone else. People will charge thousands of rupees of compensation from others for one's own fault. I have been cheated multiple times in Bengaluru. The traffic police are worst. Bengaluru is filled with horrible car drivers.
Bengaluru has the worst traffic congestion in the world.

Bangalore has the worst traffic congestion in the world.
People here are worst and only know to abuse the vehicles. Crazy honking, awful bikers, dented cars, pathetic drivers, all trying to play Tetris on the narrow roads filled with potholes at several places. Short distances can take hours, airport is ridiculously far and will miss the flights if not on time. The check-in takes a very long time.
People don't follow any rules on the road. Bangalore is only filled with rule-breakers and zero discipline people.
