A Bengaluru woman has sparked a discussion on social media after sharing a video showing heavy traffic on the city’s roads at 3.20 pm.

The video, captioned “3hrs of time, energy and fuel waste”, shows vehicles packed on the road, highlighting the frustration faced by commuters during their daily journeys. Kavya said she had tried different timings and combinations to determine the best time to leave the office and avoid traffic, but eventually concluded that working from home was the only way to escape the congestion.

‘Best Time To Leave Office Is To Not Go’

In the video, Kavya said, “As a person working in Bangalore, I have tried every permutation and combination of what is the best time to leave office to avoid traffic. And after a lot of research, I have come to the conclusion that the best time to leave office is to not go to office at all. Work from home, people. Work from home. Because what the fuck? It's 3.20 in the afternoon and look at the damn traffic. Look at it.”

Another user commented: "Can’t agree more."

The reactions highlight how flexible working hours and alternative office timings are increasingly being discussed by Bengaluru commuters as possible ways to avoid peak-hour traffic.
