**Man Sleeps in Middle of Busy Bengaluru Road, Causes Major Traffic Congestion**
Bengaluru: In a bizarre incident that left commuters stunned, a man was spotted sleeping right in the middle of a busy road in Bengaluru, leading to significant traffic congestion. Onlookers captured a video showing the man lying on a foam mattress with his legs folded comfortably, completely unbothered by the traffic chaos around him.
The footage shows a bus and a car stuck behind the man, unable to move forward due to his presence on the road. His actions openly violated traffic rules and put not only his life at risk but also the safety of others using the road.
The video was posted on X by @karnatakaportf, with the caption highlighting the reckless nature of the act:
“Such behaviour is absolutely reckless and unacceptable. Whether the man is mentally unstable or deliberately engaging in this act, it is an extremely irresponsible move that puts not only his own life at risk but also endangers unsuspecting commuters. If a vehicle accidentally hits him, who will be held accountable? Will it be the driver who had no choice but to use the road, or the man whose actions created this hazard in the first place?”
**Police Response**
In response to the viral video, the Bengaluru Police and Bengaluru Traffic Police have asked netizens to provide the exact location of the incident for further investigation. However, their request was met with criticism, as many social media users argued that it is the authorities’ responsibility to identify the location and relevant details based on the video evidence.
Public outrage has grown, with many demanding strict action against the man for his negligent and dangerous behavior, while also expressing frustration over the perceived inaction by traffic officials and law enforcement.
As of now, no further reports or updates about the incident or the man involved have been released.
