Peak Bengaluru? Woman Rides Scooter Without Helmet, Parrot on Shoulder—Video Goes Viral, Netizens React

In Bengaluru, a woman was spotted riding a two-wheeler without a helmet while balancing a parrot on her shoulder.

Bengaluru, the Silicon Valley of India, has always been an attraction for notable incidents on the street or road. After a video of a couple romancing on the running bike went viral, another unique video from Bengaluru street surfaced on social media showing a woman riding a two-wheeler without a helmet while keeping a colourful parrot on her shoulder.

The incident captured by an onlooker and shared on X (formerly Twitter) has quickly gained attention online. The video was posted on X with captioned, "Never a dull moment in Bangalore."

In the viral video, it could be seen that two women on the scooter, one who is sitting at the back is using her phone, and the other who is driving while keeping a parrot on her shoulder has no helmet and is sitting in an unsafe position.

These offbeat phenomena have become common in Bengaluru and other parts of India, which draws attention to the traffic culture of the city.

Soon after the video surfaced on social media, it has garnered multiple responses from the users in the comment section. One of the users mocked, "balancing act by all. is it road's test drive passed."

The next said, "This is clearly a peak moment."

Another said, "Will it empower women ?"

The next also said, "This parrot said something.. have you heard?"

Whereas, in another video shared on February 26, a rider without a helmet is seen maneuvering through a busy road while a woman sits facing him instead of adopting a secure seated position. The clip was reportedly filmed on Sarjapur Main Road, with the bike displaying a Tamil Nadu registration plate.

Despite continuous warnings from traffic police across the country, such reckless behavior persists daily, raising serious concerns about public safety and responsible driving.
