Do you need a driver?

I've been here for two months in Bangalore. I hired an excellent driver. Now I'm starting to drive myself and would like to find him a good job. He's very trustworthy and knows the streets well. He charges 5000 rps per MONTH!!! That's $110 to drive you around 10 hours per day, 6 days a week!!!!

Very worth it if you're new. You need your own car.
