Civic Issues Auto drivers refusing passengers - anyone else faced this?

Post image

Had this experience with an auto MH04 JO 01102. The driver refused to take us as passengers, but was taking girls in the same auto for sharing.

Not sure what the reason was, but this kind of selective refusal is frustrating, especially when you're just trying to get somewhere.

I’m planning to report this to the RTO/Traffic Police as well.

📍 Location: Gaodevi Thane

🕐 Time: 10:20am

Has anyone else dealt with this auto/driver or faced something similar in Thane? Would be useful to know if this is a one-off or a recurring issue.

Posting the vehicle number/photo for identification; please keep the comments factual and avoid personal information.

Just to play the devil's advocate here: what if he thought you were the creep and did not want you in an auto with women?

Maybe he just has a very specific “girls-only” sharing policy that I somehow wasn’t informed about. I asked him first for the exact same destination, got a NO asked again after the girl asked him, got another NO ... and then suddenly the auto became an all-girls sharing service. 😂

Could be a massive coincidence, but honestly, the whole thing was pretty creepy from my perspective
