BMTC VOLVO Ticket - Overcharging

Hi there,

I had a think about whether I really have to put this down here under a forum. Then I thought may be this will help one of my fellow passengers one day.

I travel from Madivala (Aiyyapan Temple Bus Stop) to Shivaji Nagar everyday. I believe a lot of passengers commute in this route everyday, thanks to BMTC for their rewarding service of not providing enough buses in this route. How can I think of BMTC...

Buses not reaching the actual destination

The bus (#342) starting from Sarjapur destined towards St.John's Hospital, before reaching the destination, the bus driver & conductor asked everybody to get down at Madivala Market. When people asking for the reason since they paid ticket fare, bus conductor behaved rudely towards the passengers. I boarded the bus at Agara Junction at 12.45 pm and paid the ticket fare till St.John's Hospital.

Apart from this,...

Traffic Jams created by the buses

This is Girija

Early in the morning the BMTC busses will be parked in the midst of the road, which makes others to get late to the work. Today the bus KA 01 F3523 was parked in the middle of the road and there were no others i.e either the conductor or the driver around the spot.

Hope the earliest action will be taken in this regard.

Regards,
Girija...

Vulgar words from driver's dirty mouth

Respected Sir/Madam
"KINDLY READ THIS MAIL COMPLETELY"
Every organisation works for getting a good name, so too is BMTC.
For this you have to teach your main employees- the drivers and conductors how to behave.
This happened on Tuesday- 19th of August.
Bus route no. is 272 (a red board bus) and the bus no. is KA-01-FA-552.
I boarded this bus from Shivajinagar terminus at around 8.30 pm....

Ruthless Driving

Dear Sir,
Today (17th July) Morning on my way to office at the BTM water tank I saw a rutheless agression by the driver of a BMTC bus # KA01 3430. I notice that it was a green color bus, thought it was a pass bus. The driver rammed upon a Bike rider in the busy traffic. Shocking, this was done not by mistake but by the sole intention to hit him. I was a third person witnessed the accident, felt so pity for the poor biker whose...

Dear Sir,

I am Mrs.Yashaswini traveling from Kamakshi Palya to
Shivajinagar every day.

The common problem facing is, almost all the bus drivers and
conductors are forcing passengers to get down in the signal itself
and are not allowing us to get down in the bust stop after the
signal which is illegal.

Today i have seen a severe problem. Today i climbed a bus in thebr...

Poor behavior by volvo ticket checkers

I am Sajith Nair, a software Engineer working in a company near St Marks road. I use the Volvo buses to commute to and fro work. I want to put your notice to the degradation in service in these buses. When the service started, there were drivers and ticket checkers polite and very friendly to passengers. Now this has gone to such a bad level people have to think twice and check their purse before boarding the bus. I board from Kodihalli,...
