Imagine sa loob ng bakuran nila makakakuha ka ng pekeng Car plate at Pekeng registration ( source TV patrol) at pekeng driver license sa recto (source XXX). Bakit kasalanan nila... kahit nakikita na walang tail light,brake light,pundido at bulag na headlight,signal light, sama mo na rin yung di naka align na headlight at mga naka HID binababayaan nila. Dapat bago ilabas ang mga sasakyan sa kalye dapat nsa working condition para di sila hazard sa kalye sama mo na rin ang competency ng driver. Buti na lang kung sila madidisgracia sila na lang kaso mo makakadamay pa sila... di ba naiisip ng LTO at DOTC yon? o sadyang wala silang isip na di nila iniisip na hazard yon sa kalye. Kung maghihigpit sila mababawasan ang mga hazard at mababawasan din ang aksidente sa kalye. Yung criminal offense nga sa mga lasing o nakainom na nag-mamaneho ang tagal tagal na yon wala pang nangyayari... mabuti pa nga yon kay katrina halili ora mismo nasa senado agad at ora mismo nasimot nila ang mga dvd sa quiapo... hahaha mga pulitiko talaga. Isa pa imagine yung mga naka SUV naka HID? Ang taas taas na nila HID pa... ano ang mangyayari sa mga kotseng mababa na nakasalubong nila? dapat ipagbawal rin yon... Imagine araw araw may aksidente sa kalye... ewan ko ba kung kasalanan ng bulok na batas o sa kayabangan ng ng driver o sa kakulangan sa kaalaman ng rules and regulationS.... TEKA MERON BANG RULES AND REGULATION? O Sadya bang ganito ang mentally ng isang 3rd world country?

Nevermind the rules, yabang pa lang bulok na talaga ang sistema.

My top ten:

1. Motorists who occupy two lanes unnecessarily when turning right (jeepney linggo=buwelo).
2. Motorists who try to get ahead of everyone (singit) and don't merge alternately in ending/merging lanes
3. Motorists who don't use their turn signals
4. Motorists who flash their lights or honk their horns for no apparent reason.
5. Motorists who use hazard lights during downpours
6. Motorists who leave their lights on highbeam
7. Motorists who counterflow
8. Motorists who follow ambulances
9. Lawless motorists with back-up cars/police/ambulances
10. Left-turning motorists who occupy the outer lane in single-lane streets and cuts in at the last minute.

You couldnt have enumerated it any better!!

[huggybear]

Eto naman hindi about sa mga PUB drivers, but sa mga bus conductors that use/stick-out their leg sa pinto to signal!
Kasama na din dito yung mga tricycle drivers

[roberto_minosa]

5. Motorists who use hazard lights during downpours

I differ. I noticed that when the hazard is on when there's severe weather, visibility of the car with it on is improved compared to just the tailights on. But that's on the NLEX. Dunno if it's useful in the Metro.

[Lady_fox]

^^^ I also agree, we are using hazard lights only on heavy rains specially in SLEX. I noticed that some cars taillights are not visible enough. This is just for safety reason and awareness to some rude drivers during rains.

[Horsepower]

Before, I used to turn Hazard lights on during downpours pero naisip ko, nakakalito kung ako nasa likod ko. So I just turn on the lights. Ito rin ang silbi ng rear fog lights.

Sa F1 cars, they use flashing red lights pag downpour, I'm thinking of adopting the same pero iniisip ko pa. Mura lang kasi cost ng pag-gawa nun. Pero thing is, not everybody can understand what it is for.

I really hate drivers who are braindead. Yung habang nasa daan wala sa sarili.

I also hate drivers who don't give way. Yung parang mababawasan pag nag give way. I mean, what the heck, it won't even cost them 5 seconds!.

On the other hand, I admire drivers who drive properly. I'm not an angel on the street either but at least I follow traffic rules and drive properly 99.9% of the time. I also give way whenever possible because I want to be a good example for others.

If there's one thing that people might hate about me, it's that I drive fast when the road is clear. I also stop to let pedestrians cross (a lot of drivers hate that).

gumigitna lang ako after over taking a jeep with same driving habit, pambawi..

ung signal lights i don't use it when not necessary, pag walang cars sa area, or near me. para kang nagsasalitang walang kausap

[flakez]

ngayon madalas to kasi maulan. nakakairita yung mga gumagamit ng hazard kapag umuulan. haha.

This makes perfect sense! I've also seen drivers who signal left or right when the road's just bent 90 degrees. There's nowhere else to go but turn that way for crying out loud! They have no common sense.

hai naku! sa sta rita exit almost everyday traffic! ang nakakabwisit pa siga ang mga bus kahit na nasa gilid ka na iipitin ka pa na magcause para sa kabilang lane ka mapunta,, at yung mga truck ang tindi humahataw pa traffic na! at yung jeeps! arg! kaya naguumpisa ang traffic dahil sa kanila.. bibili ng basahan sa gitna ng daan! tapos kunwari nakahinto sa isang kanto dahil magbibigay sa tatawid na cars pero un pala nagaabang lang!
one time naalala ko, mainit ang ulo ko then biglang natyempo yung jeep nakahinto sa gitna.. talagang busina ako! hanggang mabingi siya.. hehehe

sabi ko sa sarili ko pagikaw pumalag patay ka sakin..

hehehe
and eto pa
ung biglang preno ung nasa front mo ng walang dahilan.. at ung tipong di alam kung saan pupunta..

sa BULACAN ang dami!

sa may bandang bulihan malolos , ung mga pulis manghuhuli ng nakapark na trucks or etc sa umaga at tanghali pangkain! nakakaasar!

[buriroy]

What I hate most are the tricycles inside our village who insist
on running in the leftmost lane forcing cars to overtake on the right.

Alam naman ng mga tricycle drivers na mas mabagal sila sa kotse so
they should stay on the right. Pag binusinahan mo dedma lang sila at
hindi man lang mag-transfer sa right lane, pag overtake mo sama pa tingin sa iyo.

I'm thinking of talking to the TODA officers and point out this glaring
traffic ignorance (or is it "just don't care") of their members.

Traffic talaga jan Sir, except on Sundays. Pero usually hanggang WalterMart lang naman..after that ok na uli going to Pulilan. Try mo Sir magleft turn sa gilid mismo ng Tabang Elem School. Maluwag po dun.

people na madami pang orasyon bago umalis ng parking slot--hello sana ialis na muna nila sasakyan nila para makapasok na ung susunod na gagamit!

my wifes guilty of this, she's a new driver, she prepares everything before leaving the parking lot, exact toll fee, playlist/music, air conditioning, seatbelts, adjust seats, side mirrors, rear view (pag may ibang gumamit ng kotse). just to make sure that when she leaves the parking lot, her 100% attention is on driving. i guess you cant blame people for making sure she has full attention on his/her driving.

dagdag ko na rin yung isa sa ayaw ko, yung sumisingit ng lane tapos di pa nagsisignal, nakakawala kasi ng momentum ng car, mapapabreak ka kagad, sayang sa gas.

sa sobrang sanay na ko sa mga sumisingit, eh di pasisingitin ko na, kaso mo di naman pala sisingit, babalik ulit sa lane nila, then maya maya aamba na naman pupunta sa lane ko, tapos di din naman pala, nak ng weteng naman, nakakasira ng momentum, di ko naman pagaari yung lane eh kaya pasisingitin kita, pero pare naman, make up your mind, sisingit ka ba o hindi?

[BratPAQ]

Sa F1 cars, they use flashing red lights pag downpour, I'm thinking of adopting the same pero iniisip ko pa. Mura lang kasi cost ng pag-gawa nun. Pero thing is, not everybody can understand what it is for.

if ever youre going to adopt it, wag tulad sa F1 na isa lang, dapat dalawa, kung isa lang kasi baka mapagkamalan ng tao na motor yun :D

which reminds me of another thing i hate is people who dont lower their headlight pag kasalubong mo, minsan ang sama pa eh pundido yung isang headlight nila kaya aakalain mo motor, yun pala kotse, mahirap ito kung makipot ang daan

If there's one thing that people might hate about me, it's that I drive fast when the road is clear. I also stop to let pedestrians cross (a lot of drivers hate that).

madalas din nagpapadaan ako ng pedestrian, nakakabwisit yung mga driver sa likod ko na bubusina at flash ng headlight dahil nagpatawid ako, mga potak kayo sana pag kayo tumawid barahin kayo ng sasakyan at pinahan pa, para maintindihan nyo.

[BratPAQ]

hehe

sana kahit walang sasakyan pero may mga tao, lalo nat tumatawid, para di sila nakikipagpatintero sa yo dahil di nila alam kung saan ka papunta.

Red light in an intersection.

Of course, you'd slow down while approaching it. Your lane is one more blank space further than the lane beside you. Just when you were about to go into that space, the idiot who's already stopped on the other lane beside you, sometimes a private car, but most of the time a taxi, suddenly swerves rapidly into your lane, claiming that blank spot you were supposed to be in.

Now I don't really mind having the blank spot taken-it's only a few meters. What I do mind is some moron swerving quickly into my lane without warning.
