The Philippine Jeepney...

safe ba yan, walang pinto at bintana
safety feature ba yung maraming stickers?

SAFE na SAFE yan, until something bad happens.....



Remember, tinalo pa natin yung TITANIC.

At natuwa ka pa. tsk tsk tsk... teka lang pansin ko lang. Jeep ba talaga lagi nadidisgrasya sa daan?hehehe. Palagay ko hindi... lagi kasi balita sa TV at Radyo e mga naka motor at mga kung di kaskasero e lasengong driver ng kotse, AUV, SUV at iba pang mamahaling sasakyan. Yan ang dulot ng yabang, ehehe.

I have nothing against you guys or have anything to do with the jeepney business here in our country. My point is, if only the government would support our own product, in no time these jeepneys would also be at par with the standards of those international manufacturers. Masyado lang talaga corrupt bansa natin at masyado lang tayo pakitang tao. Pansinin ninyo pag may sumisikat na Pilipino sa ibang bansa. Lahat nalang nakiki kamag-anak kahit di naman. hahaha. Pinoy talaga. . Example lang ha, Nung kinalaban ni Manny Pacquiao si De La Hoya madami sa atin di naniwala sa kanya, kahit mga sports comentator nagsasabi nasisiraan siya ng bait para kalabanin si De La Hoya na mas malaki at mas mabigat sa kanya. E aba, bakit nung nanalo siya e nagkabaliktaran na lahat ng comento nila? Kesyo nadaan daw sa bilis at dahil sa agwat ng edad, kung di ba naman kayo balimbing! Aminin natin, maganda ang konsepto ng jeep, di nga lang maganda pamamalakad sa transport sector natin. Kahit damihan pa mga flyovers at road barriers, gawin man nating lahat ng public transport natin e BMW, Chev o Benz kung wala organisasyon, bale wala din. Opinion ko la-ang ire.

As far as I'm concerned, those things won't be safe until I can manage to ride in one of them with my balls intact.

ps If they have CRDI, then all is well.

wala naman yata talagang doors at windows ang typical pinoy jeepney? ang ilan merong pinto. may bintana pag aircon jeep. i think you were referring to these



i think "fully open" window are part of the design


though those "windows" are useful to rest my back on hehehehe

Try to ride one, you might forget and leave your balls sticking on the jeep's upholstery.

???? CRDI? Sorry bro, didn't get you're point on that when you are discussing about safety.

I have read the whole thread, and this thread was supposed to showcase our very own locally produced Jeepneys. How it evolved from a simpleton to a now more modern look. But sadly, as far as this forum goes, posts have become sarcastic and no where on the point of this topic, no wonder some already deleted the photos they posted. Might as well do the same...

Pinoy talaga, wala na ginawa kundi manlait ng kapwa. Pero kapag sumikat, sila namang proud nila, balimbing talaga. Nung kasikatan ng Sarao motors, even know to other foreign countries because of its design, everyone was proud of it. Nung nawala, siya namang panlalait, kesyo wala na daw sa uso, unsafe, yada.. yada... di ka ba naman balimbing...

MD Juan is now becoming famous and making it's name even to the US because of it's restoration of WWII military jeeps (note: the Jeeps are the predecessors of our jeepneys) but how come no one is ranting on it? Kasi sikat, kasi gawang pinoy at gumagawa ng pangalan abroad. But wait, what if MD Juan's jeeps didn't click? I'm sure madami na tayo narinig na negative particularly dito sa tsikot. Hay... pinoy kelan ka magbabago...? Kelan ka aasenso...? hehehe

di lang nababalita sa TV ang mga aksidente ng mga jeepney kaya masasabi nyo na bibihira ang ang aksidente ng jeepney.
Pero dito po sa amin na ang daan eh palusong, di ko na mabilang sa dami ng jeepney ang nawalan ng preno at ayun kumitil na din ng maraming buhay at pinsala (tao at ariarian).

kayo na po ang humusga kung safe ba o hindi ang mga assembled jeepney.

pano ba ang solution dito? dapat participation ng mamamayan at government to improved assembled jeepney and restriction in part of government agency.

just my two cents.

Jeepneys in our country is getting the bashing it deserved.

For 50 years, the basic design has not been improved upon except for the borloloys.

The riding public deserved more.

*borz all jeeps ba sa inyo sa iloilo naka hydrovac brakes? is this a mandatory requirement for jeepneys? if then, dapat gayahin ng every city ang requirements ng LTO.

to be honest i also found those old jeeps unsafe. yesterday we had an ankle-deep flood in my place and the jeepney's brake was grinding or screeching
