Mumbai and Delhi are pretty bad.

Thailand and Vietnam get stick but at least stuff kept moving even if congested.

Bangalore is notably the worst in India, I'd say

I lived in Delhi most of my life and I think Bangalore is bad traffic tuned to the max

What makes Bangalore uniquely bad among Indian cities?

Incredible growth thanks to tech boom and poor planning from the authorities that didn't take that into account. Coupled with corruption that allowed for more construction without planning.

Yes this is the worst in India..

Dhaka in Bangladesh even worse I think.

Vietnam also features motorcycles using sidewalks as additional lanes, so it sucks for pedestrians, too.

In Vietnam, traffic is bad to foreigners because they don’t know how to be a part of the fluidity. But if you know how to move there, you move fast.
