In a very unusual turn of events, former Indian batting legend Rahul Dravid was spotted having a heated argument with an auto-rickshaw driver who rammed into his car on a busy Cunningham road on Tuesday evening. The bypassers who filmed the video showed a visibly frustrated Rahul Dravid blasting the auto driver in Kannada language.
It is believed that Dravid’a car suffered a minor collision with a goods auto which in turn resulted in the ugly friction between the two. However, it remains unclear whether Dravid was himself driving the car.
Here is how the argument ensued
According to sources, Dravid was traveling from Indian Express Junction towards High Grounds when the incident occurred. Upon impact, Dravid came out of his car and started arguing ferociously with the auto driver. His calm demeanour as portrayed in the crex ad was nowhere to be seen.

Before exiting the scene, Dravid took the auto driver’s number. Besides, conversations about brakes were also heard during the time of the argument. More details are yet to surface in times to come.
Everyone is safe and sound
Thankfully, the collision between the two vehicles did not result in any casualties. No physical damage has been reported to either of the two parties. As of now, no official complaint has been filed by Dravid against the auto driver. Further details about the incident are expected to emerge further as time progresses.
