The other day, HSR resident Suresh Bhaskaran's car was damaged due to an errant auto driver. Captured on CCTV, it clearly shows him colliding with his white car neatly parked in front of his house. His wife is also seen in the video. Before she could raise a voice, the auto driver takes a U-turn and flees.

Says Suresh: "The auto rickshaw fellow was probably looking into his mobile navigation and crashed into our parked car. Sensing that only my wife was there, he just drove away." He has also lodged a police complaint. However, even though the act was captured on CCTVs, the number plate was not traceable due to the sun's reflection. "The police officials advise that the moment such guys crash into your vehicles, you should take off their ignition key. I don’t think it’s practical with their rough behaviour. All I would say is that it is a thin line to be human, legal and ethical."
