Ferrari collided with a Truck in Katipunan

[chris_d]

The thing is even if it is a porsche or a ferrari, it is just a car. If you can afford to buy one why not? you earned it. But other people dont realize it for being a car. They see the owner as being rich or flashy. But its just a car. A car you earned.

[BoEinG_747]

root of all cause yata nito ay "INGGIT" .....IMHO


kahit expensive car ang bilhin mo may masasabi or mapipintas ang tao

eh di lalo na kung bulok ang binili mo na kotse ...ganon pa din may comment pa din sila

you can not please everybody

[bilog]

sinong inggit?

mayabang lang talaga ang ferrarri driver! Inggit din ako.hehehe!

It is unfair to say bad things about a person whom you really don't know.

For the enlightenment of everyone who has ever taken the time to read through:

Nowhere in this thread has his character been questioned, nor his lineage, his upbringing, his education or his reputation, so slander is not the issue here.

Neither has his wealth been doubted, nor the manner in which he acquired such worldly possessions, be it through fair means or foul, so envy is not the issue here.

What was questioned, and questioned very emphatically indeed, was the particular wisdom that led him to experience such an inconveniencing situation; driving such a car, in such a dangerous stretch of road, in a country which does not take too kindly to those who are seen to be well-off, as evidenced by the spate of kidnappings the populace has had to endure. True, his safety is his concern, not ours. But if that were the case, what then would be the purpose of the Goon Squad HQ? Merely for show?

It is the driver’s judgment that was in obvious error, and the relatively cosmetic damage received by the poor car is likely to ensure that the lesson is far from learned. Which also explains the remark that the car would have been better off totally wrecked (but not before the driver has escaped unharmed), in the chance that the lesson is further reinforced. I admire him for his taste in choosing such an exclusive marque (don't we all?), but how he took care of it, as glaringly shown in pictures, is another story.

There is nothing wrong with owning such an expensive, if frivolous, automobile. A number of individuals here own pricey vehicles themselves, and yet there is nothing that can be said against them, which certainly speaks volumes of their own well-exercised responsibility and discretion. I believe that “Mr. Ferrari owner” is by all means free to exercise his ownership of his prized possession, provided that it is in the manner that does not compromise the car, his own welfare or that of others on the road. Controlled conditions, such as a track, are turning out to be the most ideal in exercising that ownership as far as this country is concerned.

The very fact that this accident occurred, and a thread devoted to it, simply means that my comments have been justified way before I have even started to make them. In a situation where people see only the car, the owner and his wealth, I have merely stated what is beyond the obvious in providing my own dissenting opinion on the situation, which is my prerogative in the course of this specific discussion, just as it is your respective prerogative to react accordingly. It is an opinion which I firmly stand by, as a fellow motorist on the road.

As a final note, however, I am concerned that this accident may not be the last for this particular little Ferrari, if the owner does not take serious heed. Superficial damage sustained is easily repaired, and the oversight can just as well be repeated. To be perfectly frank, there is absolutely no guarantee that the next accident he meets is one that he will still be able to walk away from.

And that is the only point where I hope to be truly mistaken.

bogey...i got your point..but i hope you got the other's point too.

sa mga posts mo kasi, ang dating was you were judging the ferrari owner...kesyo hindi naman dapat dina drive dito yan at extravagant masyado...yun lang naman..

actually, nagtaka din ako...never expected that you'll say anything lie that..it's kinda.."un-bogeyman-like"..herhehrer...

anyway, let's put it to rest.evryone has his own opinion naman.you posted yours...the others posted their's.

ayos na.sana nalang, mag ingat tayong lahat, naka ferrari man o hindi

[zidane21]

wag na po natin gambalain ang driver nung ferrari, kawawa naman at hindi makakatulog yun dahil sa naaalala natin sya!! pagdasal na lang po natin yung truck company na meron silang maipambayad dun sa italian car! dahil kung ako po yun naku hindi ako makakatulog sa kakaisip san makakakuha ng pambayad! he he, baka isanla na lang lahat ng tsikot namin! :bwahaha:

[mikey_mike]

Wag din nating kalimutan na yung mga nakikidnap sa pinas usually sa auv lang nakasakay kasi nagpapakalow profile sila kaya hindi ibig sabihin ng naka ferrari ka e magiging mitsa na ito ng buhay mo and wala pa atang ferrari na nacacarnap dito sa atin kasi nga sobrang bihira. Sa akin walang masama bumili maski ng eroplano for as long as hindi pera ng bayan ang gamit mo. Wag natin sisihin yung driver ng ferrari coz nabangga nya yung car coz kahit anung kotse pwede mabangga kaya nga accident coz you'll never know di ba?

[Renelmac]

glenn,
ngayon ko lang nabasa to, nope that's not our batchmates' car. hindi yan kay Mr. TT, mas later models yung collection nila ng ferrari. anyways, last i heard about him he works na sa multinational company and is DRiven in an exped on blings. but still he's a good guy, got to know him in one of my classes.

[66bunny]

Well said bogeyman.

hmmm.... :confused:

'Yan ang napapala ng sukdulang yabang.

that's the comment that started it all...don't try to pass this off as people misunderstanding your posts.


sige na, it's your prerogative to question or make assumptions about everyone who owns an exotic car and drives it on philippine streets. those who buy and drive expensive toys because they are successful and would like to have some fun once in a while will just have to ignore those "dissenting opinions"

and aren't we all overreacting much about a simple improper lane change? it's not like he crashed into the side of a mountain at 300 kph. irresponsible na kaagad ang hatol, even though it's something i bet more than half of this forum's members have been through also.

got nothing against you or anyone else, just calling it like i see it ;)

cool man...it's obvious we don't see eye to eye on this issue, but we can do this without flaming or hard feelings

[jayvtec3]

sayang....saan ako nagkamali......

[Djerms]

Good thing nothing bad happened to the owner considering na truck ang nakasagupa niya. Well, based on the pic, the ferrari owner is at fault but who knows, baka naman hindi pa nga siya sanay sa mga supercars like this. Or maybe he fell asleep or maybe its because of the butiki nga. Anyway, Lets not jump into conclusions right away. IMO baka kasi ma pinpoint yung tao because very few owns a car like his. Lets just eb happy nothing bad happened.

Well, I also see the point of bogeyman...sa hirap nga naman kasi ng buhay sa Pilipinas...sana may kaunting pakikisama naman ang mga tao. Lalo na ang mga opisyal ng gobyerno.

Eto ang hindi ko ma-gets. What advice has the owner has to heed seriously? Don't ever drive the Ferrari? Put the Ferrari in a museum? Again to each his own. kaya niyang magmaintain ng Ferrari so let him be. Bakit kelangan ng "serious contemplation" pa sa "wisdom" ng paggamit niya nito. by the way in my book, questioning one's wisdom is also questioning one's character.

By the way for the record, naka-insure po ang Ferrari. and yes may insurance na nag-cover kahit na 12M ang book value kaya nga lang several insurers/reinsurers/underwriters ang involved.

good day to all

[smalltimer]

Bilib ako dun sa may-ari ng Ferrari! Diba maraming requirements bago ka makabili ng Ferrari car?

[rst619]

Bilib ako dun sa may-ari ng Ferrari! Diba maraming requirements bago ka makabili ng Ferrari car?

Nowhere in this thread has his character been questioned, nor his lineage, his upbringing, his education or his reputation, so slander is not the issue here.

slander - a false and malicious statement or report about someone.

'Yan ang napapala ng sukdulang yabang. (from page 2)

Unless you have proof that the Ferrari owner is arrogant, your statement falls under slander.

Which also explains the remark that the car would have been better off totally wrecked (but not before the driver has escaped unharmed)

You could have said this before.

There is nothing wrong with owning such an expensive, if frivolous, automobile.

Honestly, I don't see the point why some people must *absolutely* insist on using rare and expensive high performance cars on Philippine streets.(from page 2)

You were saying...?

The very fact that this accident occurred, and a thread devoted to it, simply means that my comments have been justified way before I have even started to make them.

I don't think so. Your comments pertained to the person, not the accident.

As a final note, however, I am concerned that this accident may not be the last for this particular little Ferrari, if the owner does not take serious heed.

Nagswerve lang siya, nothing serious.

I'm just calling it like I see it. ;) Hehe.

[bad driver]

I don't see that much difference between a 12 m ferrari and the porsches, Landrovers, Benzes and hi-end Bimmers here.... Sa mata ng kidnapper, pare-pareho yan. Unless there is a bill banning euro cars.

we are talking about this PARTICULAR accident, not ferrari ownership in general sa pinas. this ACCIDENT could've happened in any first world country and had nothing to do with economics.

If you REALLY want to be "considerate" to our less fortunate neighbors (squatters and street children), then a car costing more than 1.5m is already excessive. They can't even afford noodles to feed their children (50 petot a day) so really, merely owning a car is already an insult to them. let's not point fingers on who should be spending their dough on charity and who gets to buy their Accords.

tsk tsk.
