SO not done.

trust me, haggling with auto drivers is the last thing you want to do if you are in Bangalore. and its sure going to be a nightmare if you end up in a situation when you have to do it after eight in the night.

these are the times when you SO miss a city like Bombay. where you know for sure, that the system is in place to facilitate your movement and not to take advantage of the fact that the distance you want to cover is not something you can do by yourself or don't have the time to just walk it up.

just landed in Bangalore and cant find a prepaid stand?

car's just broken down and you need to go to a place near by?

getting late to work and your bus stop is alteast 15 mins by walk?

ITS RAINING!!!????

got one extra 2 kg bag with you???

rest assured you are going to be charged 1.5 times the standard rates if not more.

and of course the icing comes if all this happens after 8 in the night. God help you if there is a combination!
