This celebrity takes a bike ride from a stranger in order to keep to his appointment. The irony is his garage is filled with the most expensive vehicles on earth but the traffic jam makes it impossible for him to go by his own vehicle. It is time commuters think about owning four wheelers as it is proved that they only block traffic on roads raising tempers and tension. It would also be a good idea if public transport is resorted to. This way the congestion on roads will disappear overnight Do you take public transport? Image credit:
While most of his colleagues and fans praised Bachchan's decision to opt for a bike ride to reach on time, some pointed out that the film star and the biker are not wearing helmets.

There is no public transportation in our part of the US. No taxis, no Ubers and no buses... We either drive our car or we could walk and that isn't happening. This morning, I took Pretty to a doctor appointment in a not-so-close city. (The drive one way was 161 km and we had to be there at 7:30 am. It was fun.)

@allknowing My eyes are swelled partly closed. I didn't like driving like that but she needed to see the doctor. We were worried on the drive there and back again.

I always take public transport. Being in Manila, traffic is very common.

There really is no public transportation close to me. I would have to walk about six or seven miles to get to the nearest bus stop.

@allknowing I can on occasion. But for the most part, I plan everything I do around times I know traffic won’t be that bad. Certainly I can’t always avoid it as you can’t plan for accidents or unexpected roadwork, but I have a feeling your traffic is more aggravating on an every day basis than mine is. For a lot of places, I can even take the side roads, which is a lot less stressful.

I may be used to walking even 10 kilometers, I was stuck in a traffic jam in 2015 for 2 days holding back to relieve myself.

@allknowing Fuel was running low at that time so the queues were so long that causing that, you can imagine millions of people using vehicles at the same time.

Funny that. Yes if I have to I will take public transport. I do not own a vehicle and do not want to.

One does not have to own a vehicle if being on the road is not frequent.

@allknowing We are ten minutes from a train which can take us to the city in much less time than it would take to drive and now we're pensioners we can travel for free apart from peak times.

Here the public traffic is convenient and I like to take advantage of it. Besides, sometimes I will also use sharing bike if it is not a long journey.

Traffic jams are always "crazy", and public transports are easier when it comes to this problem. Also, people violating traffic rules should be fined or jailed, even a movie star as popular as him.

I think he will be fined for not wearing a helmet.

I prefer to walk if the place I have to go is not too far, public transport is slow and if the road are crowded they also are stuck in the traffic.

@allknowing We should need more bus. I cannot see bringing through the border 80,000 Italian workers every day with the few bus we have now. When I go grocery shopping my husband drives me to the store. I know how uncomfortable it is to load your grocery on a bus, I did this a few times when he was not well.

Yes I am taking the public transport specially those days that I am studying and then when I started working before. Everybody experienced traffic jams these days because of production of cars it can be prevented if some car owners and each government would agree to some ways ...
