Travelling in India is never short of surprises from the food and festivals to the people you meet on the road. But for one American tourist, the real shocker came during a simple auto-rickshaw ride, when his driver suddenly broke into fluent French. What started as a casual chat quickly turned into a viral moment that left both the tourist and the internet in splits.
A Ride Full of Surprises
Jay, a US-based content creator exploring India, casually mentioned that he spoke two languages French and English. To his utter disbelief, the auto driver responded in French right away, asking, 'Do you speak French?'
Jay burst into uncontrollable laughter, struggling to process the unexpected reply. The driver repeated the question in simpler French, making the encounter even funnier. Jay later shared the clip online with the caption: “When Your Driver Speaks French in India.”
Internet in Splits
The video spread like wildfire, with netizens flooding the comments section. “Bro scanned him and activated the language,” one joked. Another added, “It took him five seconds to download the language.” But the most viral reaction summed it up perfectly: “Bro connected VPN.”
Not the First Viral Rickshaw Story
India’s auto drivers often spark viral moments. Earlier this year, a Bengaluru driver made waves for streaming a Naval Ravikant podcast on a mini screen while weaving through traffic. On the flip side, another driver was slammed after dropping a passenger mid-ride for personal reasons.
