Bengaluru Man Viral Post: Bengaluru’s traffic troubles and cab shortages are a daily struggle, but one man found a clever way out. With Uber and Ola failing him, he ditched the usual ride-hailing apps and did something unexpected—he booked himself as a "parcel" on Porter, an app meant for transporting goods, not people. Talk about thinking outside the box—quite literally.
In the viral post, the man can be seen sitting behind a delivery partner wearing a helmet with Porter’s branding. His unconventional commute has left the internet both amused and impressed
