Auto Driver Drops Woman Passenger Midway, Questions Her Life Choices: 'Why'd You Take The Job...'
Auto rickshaws are ubiquitous in Indian cities and quite popular for cheap short-distance travel. Despite their utility, the autorickshaw rides often become a source of hassle for the customers as the drivers tend to have their share of tantrums. Recently, a woman travelling to work claimed that the autorickshaw driver not only abruptly ended the trip midway but also schooled her about the choices she had made in her life. "Yesterday, my auto driver dropped me off 1 km before my office. Mid-ride. Because madam, itna dur nahi jaa sakta (I cannot go that far)" wrote Aditi Ganvir in a LinkedIn post. She further claimed that the driver questioned her choice of workplace, allegedly asking, "Itni door kyun job liya?" (Why did you take a job so far away?) The driver even started calculating her salary and ranted about how he should have never accepted the ride. "Sometimes, your journey will be inconvenient for others and they will leave you in between. That's okay. Just rate them 1 star and move on." See the viral post here: 'Wonder if it was his own...' As the post went viral, social media users were left amused by the interaction and sided with Ms Ganvir. "When podcasters turn cab drivers," said one user, while another added: "Everybody is extremely clever in calculating the salary of others." A third commented: "18 km of dedication, and 1 km of unsolicited life advice. Auto rides in India really do offer full-stack experience." A fourth said: "While they are ready to do this to a customer. Wonder if it was his own daughter/wife/sister. Would he have dropped her 1km before their destination." Last month, a Bengaluru resident claimed that during a routine commute, the autorickshaw driver started scrolling Instagram -- even slowing the vehicle to stalk an actress' profile. Taking to Reddit, the user wrote: "What made it worse was that he came across a post by Sreeleela(Actor), and instead of just moving on, he actually slowed down the auto right in the middle of the main road to open her profile and scroll through her feed." The man who was in a hurry to reach the office said he was furious but "felt completely helpless" at the situation.

This dilemma recently took centre stage on Reddit, where a financially stable couple questioned whether purchasing a Rs 32 lakh car would be a sound decision at their stage in the post, a 30-year-old man shared that he and his wife, both working in the IT consulting sector, bring home a combined Rs 3.2 lakh per month. Their monthly expenses, which include vacations, family support, and daily needs, average around Rs 1.7 lakh. Financially, they appear well-prepared, with Rs 15 lakh in savings, Rs 22 lakh in mutual funds, and Rs 45 lakh in provident funds. They also maintain a Rs 30 lakh health insurance they currently rent and do not own property, they hope to buy a home within the next decade. With no children yet, but plans to start a family next year, the poster explained that he was drawn to a car priced at Rs 31–32 lakh on-road, and is considering making the purchase next year after accumulating more savings for a higher down response from Reddit users was largely cautious. Many highlighted the risk of investing in a depreciating asset like a car over appreciating assets like real estate. Some urged the user to prioritise home ownership, pointing out that a property not only builds equity but also gains value over time. One commenter even stated plainly that buying a Rs 32 lakh car without a house should be ruled out offered practical benchmarks, suggesting that car purchases should ideally not exceed six months' worth of take-home salary—in this case, approximately Rs 19–20 lakh. Anything significantly beyond that was seen as financially risky, especially considering job market uncertainties and future obligations like raising a users weighed in on the question of whether to buy the car outright or through a loan. Some argued in favour of financing, saying that with vehicle loan interest rates generally ranging from 7–12%, the remaining funds could be invested in mutual funds, which historically offer better long-term returns. However, others pushed back, cautioning that salaried individuals don't benefit from the same tax deductions on vehicle loan interest as businesses do, and investment gains are still the purchase price, commenters also brought attention to the ongoing costs of owning a premium vehicle. Higher insurance premiums, servicing charges, and repair expenses were flagged as important considerations. Several users also pointed out the poor road conditions in many Indian cities and the potential for frequent vehicle wear and tear—factors that could further diminish the value of an expensive respondents suggested buying a smaller, more affordable car under Rs 10–12 lakh and investing the remaining money into long-term goals such as a child's higher education or eventual home interiors.
