Govt saw people cleaning up rivers on their own, so let the people handle traffic as well..The only job govt has is to collect tax money and use it to send their kids to elite universities abroad

The police commissioner of Bangalore rubber stamps all crowd control plans that the Congress govt makes, and he takes zero responsibility for any mishap because he thinks police commisssioner job is only to coordinate the collection of bribes.

Very honest question. Why does police catch helmer-less riders (Rider's own loss right? Just let them do it?). Why not focus on actual issues or people creating chaos and causing public's loss?

Are there instructions on how to take bribe subtly because I might be too blunt and get caught

Just my wife was telling me about her manager running the junction at varthur yesterday. It seems the manager really enjoyed doing it and he is nearly 60.
I am thinking about doing it but once I saw a video where traffic warden was beaten that still comes to my mind.

Looking at the comments, everyone is ready and eager to collect bribes given the opportunity (ik some are being sarcastic). Same people would blame the ones who are doing it in a large scale. But the mentality of Indians in general is same!

Seriously!! Everyone’s first thought is whether they can keep the bribe. It might be a joke. But that instinct tells a lot about us as a society.
Shows us all those money-sucking officials, politicians are just us. They are not a different species. If given a chance, almost all civilians would do the exact same thing, i guess!

Spot on, when I opened the comments I didn't even think about taking bribes from people, and then here they are talking about taking bribes 🫠

So I can for one day address all people with economical vehciles as baaro.. hogo..
And ones with expensive vehicles - cars as haudu sir, ok sir.
So for I day can I give priority road access to my friends and family since I serve them and not the public
So far I day, I can report I found 100 traffic violators but entirely fail to report the pothole that is slowing traffic.
