The auto driver covered a dance of 27 kilometres in just 25 minutes. The man shared that he paid ₹2,500 to the auto driver. (X/@Adil_Husain_) “Had a #peakBengaluru experience some days back. I was supposed to board Prashanti Express at 1:40 pm from SBC station, and due to some work commitments, I started 12:50 from Marathalli. The dance was 17 km, and due to traffic, I couldn’t make it on time,” tweeted X user Adil Husain while sharing a video of an auto racing against the time.

I was sceptical; however, he was very confident that he could and asked me to only pay him if I was able to catch the train. I had my friend with me and he asked for 2500 for both,” he added. He further tweeted, “ this time, it was already 1:50, and the Yelahanka stop was at 2:20 pm. I contemplated that if I needed to book a flight now, it would cost thrice the fare, and my 2AC ticket would also go to waste; hence, we decided to go for it.” He then shared how the auto driver sped through traffic and got them to the station in 25 minutes. He concluded his tweet sharing how that particular auto driver waits for people like him who have missed their train and earn ₹2,500 per ride. “Thanks to him, my money and hassles are saved,” he concluded.
