The sight of a tanga trotting along a cutting-edge, double-decker flyover left commuters stunned and amused in equal measure.

The unusual moment quickly gained traction online, with many users dubbing it yet another example of “Peak Bengaluru”.

In a separate news, a Bengaluru man has shared an unusual late evening encounter that has quickly captured the attention of social media users. Taking to X, user Vaibhav Gupta posted a photograph of his Rapido rider taken from behind as they waited at a traffic signal. The image shows the rider seated on the bike with a phone mounted on the handlebar, its screen glowing in the night.

Gupta explained in his post that the rider was not watching entertainment or navigating traffic, but instead listening to a Node.js tutorial. Sharing the moment, Gupta wrote, "Yesterday my @rapidobikeapp rider was listening to a Node.js tutorial. Upon asking, he told me he’s already a developer and is preparing for a switch. Crazy grind and a @peakbengaluru moment for me."
