Bengaluru woman confronts overcharging auto driver
A video from Bengaluru is making waves after Anya S refused to pay an auto driver more than what her Rapido app showed—₹296 instead of the ₹390 he demanded. When she asked for help nearby, Anya said she felt scared, bringing attention to ongoing issues with fair pricing and safety in the city's transport scene.
TL;DR
Anya said she is happy to pay extra for good service
Rapido quickly banned the driver and promised stricter conduct rules. On Instagram, Anya shared she's happy to pay extra for good service but not under pressure, calling for respect and fairness regardless of language. Locals reacted with both apologies for the city's image and concern about rising aggression—highlighting that fare disputes like this are pretty common in Bengaluru's auto system.
