Hyderabad:Bengaluru is notorious for its terrific traffic conditions during rush hours. People usually struggle to book cabs via ride-hailing apps like Ola and Uber due to long waiting lines. Amongst this, a commuter named Pathik came up with an unconventional solution of booking a ride on Porter to go to the office. The Porter is an app used for transporting goods from one place to another via bike, tempo, and other vehicles.
Pathik Ghugare a machine learning engineer working at Parspec shared an X post on February 6, claiming he had to porter himself to the office because he couldn't fetch a ride via Ola or Uber. The post quickly gained traction and received over 1 lakh views. Many X users praised Pathik for his unconventional solution for Bengaluru's terrific traffic. Several users expressed their views and opinions in a witty fashion.
One user commented that Porter only allows a maximum of 5 kg weight for parcel delivery via a two-wheeler. Another user asked not to give Zepto any new ideas. Ghugare was also asked whether the rider tied him up to the seat as they do with heavy parcels on two-wheelers. The comment was followed by another user who said, "Modern problems require modern solutions."
