Bengaluru Man’s Rapido Safety Check Message Sparks Laughter
A Bengaluru man’s humorous post about receiving a safety check message from Rapido while stuck in heavy traffic has gone viral. The man, who was caught in a traffic jam on a flyover, shared a screenshot of the unexpected message asking if he was safe, as his auto had been stationary for a while.
In his post, the man, seemingly amused, clarified, “Rapido just asked if I am safe because apparently my auto hadn’t moved in a while. Brother in Christ, I am not in danger, I’m just on Marathahalli bridge,” before adding, “Calm down, it’s just a Tuesday.”
App-based cab services typically send safety checks when a vehicle has been stationary for too long. In this case, the heavy traffic caused his auto to be at a standstill, prompting the message. The post quickly caught the attention of social media users, with many finding humor in the situation. One user shared a similar experience, saying, “Uber asked me the same thing two days in a row while I got stuck at Marathahalli.”
Others joined in with their own stories of being stuck in traffic, calling it a “peak Bengaluru moment.” Some even joked about the irony of reading the post while being stuck on the same bridge.
The lighthearted interaction has certainly brightened up social media feeds, turning a common traffic frustration into a shared laugh.
