‘Felt Safe In New City’: Bengaluru Woman Thanks A Rapido & Bus Driver For Helping Her At 3 AM

A woman’s 3 AM arrival in Bengaluru- allegedly a new city for her- ended up turning into a rather wholesome welcome after she got help from two unknown men, in the most unexpected way possible! Taking to social media, she shared a video, where she recalled her late-night arrival in the city, along with her journey from the airport to her destination. Allegedly, she was able to get a bus from the airport, but failed to find an online ride from the bus stop to her destination. She claimed that not a single online cab or bike was accepting her ride due to it being “3 AM”, leaving her stuck at the bus stop.Eventually, it was a Rapido driver who offered her a ride and dropped her off at her location. As per the woman, not only did the driver assure

her of her safety, but also did not tell a definite fare– stating that her safety was his “responsibility” anyway. The bus driver, on the other hand, had also waited with her until she finally received help from the Rapido driver.Ultimately, the woman hailed the two unknown men who ended up coming to her rescue in the emergency situation in a “new city”. Needless to say, her late-night arrival in Bengaluru became her “best thing” of the day.Times Now could not confirm the details or the authenticity of the post.Check out the viral post: “Not all men. It might not be the most beautiful thing you saw today but it is for me!! Not one but 2 completely unknown men, who were kind enough to make me feel safe in a new city at 3am. As a woman, (thankfully) you know the relief I’m talking about and as a man, (sadly) you know how lame it is!” the post read.

Internet’s reactions: “Why is every man saying it’s not safe! Why don’t you educate boys and men about keeping women and girls safe instead of asking women to not travel at 3.00 AM?” a user asked in the comments.ALSO READ: Bengaluru Man Pays Rs 150 For ‘Chilly-Dusted Gold Fingers’- Only To Receive ‘Pipe Papad’ “Hats off to both of them.
