Bengaluru's traffic woes have long been a talking point, with residents frequently complaining about inadequate infrastructure, poor road conditions and ever-increasing commute times. During the monsoon season, heavy rain and waterlogged roads often make the situation even worse, leading to massive traffic snarls and hours-long delays across the city.Infosys co-founder Kris Gopalakrishnan (ANI)Amid this, Infosys co-founder Kris Gopalakrishnan shared his own frustrating experience on X after a commute in Bengaluru. In the post, Gopalakrishnan revealed that a 31-kilometre trip had taken him nearly 2.5 hours. He expressed concern over the city's deteriorating commuting conditions, pointing to mounting traffic, poor infrastructure and lack of driving discipline."31 km took 2 1/2 hours today. It is only becoming worse. Traffic, condition of roads, and poor discipline," Kris Gopalakrishnan wrote in an X post.(Also Read: Woman calls Bengaluru ‘Europe in India’, says city has everything despite traffic woes: ‘My take? 5/5’)What did social media say?The tech veteran's post struck a chord with social media users, many of whom said that they had endured similar or even worse commutes.One user wrote, "It's turning into a nightmare lately. My 28 KM commute last week took 3 hours !! We need to switch to remote till riads, rules and enforcement fall in place.""Driving in Bangalore is a nightmare. It's a man made disaster," remarked another."Unfortunately sir, that is still not in the top 10 worse traffic timings. The horror stories go as far as 3 hours for 5 km during rainy days," wrote a third user."True sir. I too took over 2 hrs for 25 kms. I was naive to assume that driving on weekends would be less stressful," said one user."31 km in 2.5 hours says a lot about how daily commuting stress is silently eating time and energy. It's not just traffic-it's a mix of road capacity, unmanaged growth, poor lane discipline, and too many vehicles for the same space. Unfortunately, once a city reaches this stage, small delays start compounding into everyday frustration. The hardest part is that people adjust to it instead of demanding better systems-until it becomes "normal." Hope things improve soon, because this kind of commute isn't just inconvenient, it's draining life hours every single day," commented another."You are doing good. Im doing 2 hrs for 8 km," said another.
