The post quickly racked up 85,000 views, sparking a flood of reactions online. Many users liked the cab driver’s blunt approach, finding the situation quite humorous. One of them commented, “The cab driver thinks the ladies can’t resist his charm.” Another joked, “An ethical & essential message for the Cab passengers.”
A few users even took a playful jab, suggesting it could double as a clever marketing strategy for OYO Rooms.
A similar post from Bengaluru on taxi etiquette attracted notice last week, when a traveller posted a picture of a notice with a set of rules that was fixed behind a front seat in a cab. The straightforward yet humorous instructions immediately gained attention.

‘Don’t call me bhaiya’ 😮😁😂Some of the guidelines read- ‘You are not the owner of cab’,
‘You are not the owner of cab’, ‘Put your attitude in your pocket’, 😂 “Calling them uncle from now on.”#cabdriver #ViralNews pic.twitter.com/jUy9LgLAP4— I Tweet Everything (@comedy_whatsapp) October 15, 2024
Among the highlights were a reminder that the driver is the car’s owner and the instruction for passengers not to call him “bhaiya.”.
