Bengaluru man ‘delivers’ himself to work on Porter after failing to find Ola, Uber

One Bengaluru man, fed up after failing to procure a ride to work, 'delivered' himself to his office!

Hyderabad: Traffic woes of metropolitan cities in India are never-ending and travelling to work amid peak traffic hours is painful, to say the least.

Those travelling to work by booking Ola, Uber, Rapido or any such cab/bike taxi aggregators, have it particularly difficult due to high demand during office hours.

In the photograph he posted on X, Pathik can be seen through the reflection on the helmet of the Porter rider. Porter is an app which offers quick goods delivery services within cities.

Praising Pathik’s ‘creativity’ and ‘problem-solving streak’, Porter re-shared his post and said “Talk about a #BangaloreBrainwave! When life gave you no Ola or Uber, you channeled your inner superhero and self-ported to work! Namma Bengaluru, we salute your creativity and problem-solving streak and kudos to you for sharing this wonderful adventure with us.
