In Bengaluru, traffic jams aren’t just annoying, they’re a full-blown lifestyle. But amid all the honking and waiting, one clever resident turned his frustration into something hilarious, giving Newton’s laws of motion a truly local spin.
The Viral Post That Hit Home
X user Lalit Gour recently shared a screenshot from Google Maps showing a now-viral moment: it would take him 48 minutes to travel just 3.6 km near Brookfield. That’s right, less than 4 km in nearly an hour.
But it wasn’t just the traffic that grabbed attention, it was his caption. With perfect Bengaluru sarcasm, he wrote:
“Newton’s fourth law of motion: A Bangalore auto at rest will remain at rest.”
And just like that, Newton was unofficially upgraded, and every commuter in the city felt seen.
X Users Can Relate
The post quickly went viral, with people jumping in to share their own traffic horror stories and dry humour. One user replied, “I just drove to the office, 19 km in 50 minutes,” while another sighed, “No words when it comes to Bengaluru traffic.”
Someone else joked, “When an interviewer asks, ‘Where do you see yourself in 5 years?’ I think… still stuck in Bangalore traffic.”
It’s Funny Because It’s True
While the joke had everyone laughing, it also hit a nerve. The Brookfield to Electronic City belt is infamous for being nearly impossible to cross without losing time, patience, or both.
