Challenges faced by Two Wheeler Riders in Bangalore

• Unplanned for the current population: The city can be termed well planned but was factually never thought to flourish at this level. Consequently, with the mass migration of job aspirants from the entire nation in the silicon city of India, created huge pressure on the city infrastructure, whose modulation pace could never really match the growing population density. The resultant effect is a huge traffic problem especially in silk board, Saint John’s, Outer ring road, Whitefield, Electronic city, among others.
  
• Rising income, easy instalment option, increasing traffic: With the rising income of the city dwellers in Bangalore, every individual is inclined towards owning a vehicle which is massively supported by all vehicle dealers through easy instalments, online payments and many other schemes. On an average, Bangalore RTOs register over 1,250 vehicles daily! 
  
• Poor road infrastructure. Unplanned city landscape: Bangalore city infrastructure constitutes umpteen number of roads, flyovers, bypass lanes, underpass and bridges to manage the traffic issues across the city. However, average rainfall caused drainage overflow and massive traffic congestion during rainy days. With changing governments or new implementation of constructions, the roads the always blocked in addition to the never subsidizing traffic.
  
• Adventure hub. Irresponsible driving: The city is jammed with young generation job aspirants and they never seize any opportunity to explore the city which has a bounty of adventurous sports and getaways. Most of the times, the late-night party and drunk driving result in accidents, the victim of which are mostly innocent pedestrians or other bike riders.
