Many passengers often pay their fares to auto drivers before reaching their destinations. Sometimes they willingly do so. Many times, even the drivers ask them to complete the payment. In other instances, several people even end up paying the cost twice. While some drivers do not bother stopping the commuters, some kind-hearted ones take a step to stop them from paying twice. In Bengaluru, a passenger came across a similar experience in interaction with an auto driver.
