Sorry, I do not understand what you say. For me this looks like
different routes:

192.168.3.0  0.0.0.0       255.255.255.0 U  0 0 0 vmbr1
10.1.1.0     0.0.0.0       255.255.255.0 U  0 0 0 vmbr0

Packets to 10.1.1.0/24 are set via vmbr0
Packets to 192.168.3.0/24 are set via vmbr1

Why do you think it is wrong?
