Why don't we say 'All India'!?
+1.I Agree with you.Ill tell you how the traffic Jams Start in India

Now theres a Two-Lane Road.Theres a red-light so one side trafic with 1 row is stopped.Now When the green light comes,some cars behind try to overtake,Bikers try to enter in between..and go here and there.That makes the one Lane a 2-3 lane.This is what have seen in many places in India i have visted.,But they most disciplined was Bangalore

maybe bangalore follows the fewest rules, but the people are very friendly most motorbikes stop to give a lift if you flag em down...
delhi has the worst behaved people irrespective of whether they are driving or not... and mumbai people have a big bag of tricks around the philosophy of "me first"... surprise lanes, temporarily using the wrong side of the road as an express lane, or jumping the signal on the intersection just when it changes for someone else

saw like an impossible 40 second wheelie on nice road by some Bangalore biker though wudnt have blvd it if I hadnt seen it

PS read the article, Bangalore is never going to be weelchair friendly... ever... thats because the footpaths all over the city are divided into sections that are exactly one plot or one house long, and these are at wildly varying heights when compared to the road

Well Even in Mangalore.There wont be a single day without some driver or someone screaming ran** Ma**,Bevar$*.
Busses stop where they Like,some times middle of the road :/.Conductors screaming Bega Jepulle(Get down fast).
Traffic Is horror throughout India.
If Indians Start following Lane Rules.Then i guess it would be much better.
Like In Dubai And other Foreign citys.People exactly drive how the marking are given.

Ah yes we have cross cutting motorists and over optimistic F1 cadre auto wallahs in Bangalore, mix that with a very broken and bad infrastructure and yes you have Bangalore traffic. But having the opportunity to live in more than one city, I don't see why B'lore stands out. It's the same in almost every city.

My benchmark for the worst is still my own -pseudo native tier 2 city called Visakhapatnam / Vizag. I told my brother once, if you had learnt driving in Vzg instead of B'lore, you could have driven in any part of the world. :D I would like to quote my lecturer who hailed form a different city at that time, I have a bike but I do not know how to ride in this city. Now I walk but even then I don't know which direction to look while crossing.. Every time you cross a road, you have to look in both directions, even if it is the NH-7; both directions for each lane.

Moral of the story: This survey is flawed. Like all other (most) surveys this one screams of inaccuracy :)

it seems everyone is finding their own cities worst :p
personally Guwahati too is a very bad place in terms of Traffic.
