★ ★ ★ ★ ★ After all, it has royal approval! As per temple priest Subramaniam Deekshit, the Maharaja of Mysore Jayachamarajendra Wodeyar was travelling in his Rolls Royce from Mysore to Bangalore, when his car broke down nearby. Forced to abandon his vehicle, the king started off on foot and saw the roadside temple.
On performing a puja here, his Rolls Royce mysteriously sputtered to life. This happened a few times. Even the Diwan of Mysore, T Ananda Rao, after whom the Anand Rao Circle is named, stayed at Cantonment and regularly prayed at the shrine. When TVS opened its showroom in Bangalore, it brought its new chassis and vehicles for puja. With the opening of the Benz and Nissan showrooms on Kasturba Road, the practice caught on.
The belief that an accident can be averted if you perform a puja is so strong that people come in the thousands for vahana puja during Ayudha Puja. Two-wheeler owners believe that they would upgrade to a car and small car owners think their aspirations to buy a bigger car would be fulfilled. Whether the vehicle is old or new, a cycle or a Merc, Traffic Ganesha’s fame only increases each year.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the most famous places to get Pooja done for new vehicles. You will see some rush there. It's right next to Sundaram Mercedes Benz showroom. Really small temple but with the crowd there it's hard to miss. Temple opens in the evening at 6. Be there early to get a parking spot on the street and complete the Pooja for your vehicle.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Believed to be over six centuries old, this temple is conveniently located right on Kasturba Road. Although its widespread popularity is not just because of its central location. Often called the Traffic Ganesha, Vahana Ganpati or Accident Ganesha, the deity here supposedly has the power to bless new vehicle owners with an accident-free life! In fact, stories go on to say that the Maharaja of Mysore, Jayachamarajendra Wodeyar, got his Rolls Royce to come back to life after it broke down and he stopped by the temple to seek blessings. Apart from those who come with new vehicles, the temple also sees nearby automobile showrooms bringing their vehicles for pooja
