Do you face problems while driving a non karnataka car in Bangalore?

So recently moved to bangalore, I have my car back at my old place that I am planning to bring over here.

Apart from this crazy job reservation trend I have noticed almost no cars from outside karnataka in Bangalore. (Atleast not of north) Are we facing discrimination on that front too?

Anyone here who owns a non karnataka registered car? Can you share your experience?

Have been driving one since last year. No issues so far in regards to outside number plate. Have gotten a dashcam installed with the recent hooliganism going on.

Hey, I do not work in BLR but went there with my TS passing car 2 yrs back. I stayed at my friend's flat which is in the Brookfield area. As outsider parking was not allowed inside the apartment hence I parked my car at the main gate entry for 2 nights. I was shocked to see both of my right side tyres were intentionally damaged from the front face of the tyre. Later on I got to know that it happens to many if it is not KA passing.
