A user commented, “I hope they don't make a language issue if a girl is non-Kannada.” Another user wrote, “Such people are just  shaming the real Bangalore. Which company would like to operate from such city ? If company starts moving out, then what is left behind ?? All this for some people whom get the bad name as cops are sleeping ??” A third user wrote, “The driver's do this regularly, especially on narrow roads. Blocks the entire road, pushing two wheelers and 4 wheelers to the point where they can get crushed. Police even if they see it, pretend to ignore it. Unfortunately no one speaks up, just a couple of words exchanges.”

A fourth user stated that the driver should be punished and wrote, “Driver should be in jail. Not just suspend. What's there to suspend. He will do some other junk thing next. He need to be tutored with black and blue.” Another user wrote, “Lol these all bmtc drivers try to run over on someone. Just check any videos you will get to know.” Another user opined that suspension is not the solution and he should be dismissed. Another user wrote, “Mere suspension is not enough. This is attempted murder.”
