EDSA traffic, always on the leftmost side. Mauna na kayong lahat

Southbound or northbound?

my experience is, "the leftmost lane is the faster lane".
both northbound and southbound.
except for the southbound edsa segment starting from buendia, to magallanes, where i find the middle lane, faster.

This is the problem with LTO. Hindi naman pasaway mga tao. Mostly, unaware sila.

Ako naman as a pedestrian i raise my hand (with a smile) as a gesture of thanks to the driver who gave way to me.

sa sobrang ungas ng mga driver ngayon, pag tumatawid ako sa ped xing kanto namin para kumain ng squid balls; mukha akong engot kung kumaway at naka ngiti sa lahat ng motorista na madaaanan ko kahit naka redlight pa sila. nakakatuwa lang nun isang araw kasi kinawayan ako nun babae at nag smile din, buti nalang maganda ^_^
last year yata yun, may isang 6 wheeler pinilit talaga (sobrang bilis takbo) ako unahan sa pedxing kahit lahat ng auto pinadaan nako, pagdaan sa harap ko hinampas ko yun malaking side mirror nya ayun nabasag as in kalat sa kalye. pagdating ko sa sidewalk inintay ko para iexplain kung bakit ko nagawa yun. di naman bumababa, sayang sana may natutunan sana sya.

I also do this.
Kaya kahit sa ibang bansa nadadala tuloy mannerism. Tanong sa akin bakit ko daw ginagawa yon eh magbibigay naman yung mga kotse sa pedestrian. Sabi ko na lang force of habit. Hehe

Malapit sa roundabout ang bahay ko dito sa Oman at nakakaaliw panoorin kung gaano kaayos mag engage mga driver dito sa roundabout.

Wala talaga natitigil sa gitna ng roundabout, sa pinas pati sa roundabout o rotonda ang gulo.

^ ganyan din when i was in qatar way back mga 2004's, maraming roundabout, and i think its good and serve the purpose na continuous ang flow ng traffic. that is, if motorists understand and follow the rules. mga lokal lang din ang balasubas sa daan, lalo mostly mga naka land cruisers, they try to muscle up their way lalo maliit dala mong kotse.

Hi,

I'm new here and this is my first post.

Isa sa mga frustrating moments sa driving experiences ko, yung may pedestrian lane, traffic light and mabilisang transition ng yellow light to red. I don't tend to beat yellow light kasi and madalas nangyayari when my vehicle is on the pedestrian lane, doon nagkakaroon ng yellow light - I tend to stop on the pedestrian lane kasi kung hindi, I would be beating the red light.

Yung mga pedestrian umiiling pagka ganito. Ano ginagawa nyo sa ganitong situations? Nagsstop din ba kayo?

Welcome to manila, where a 3 second yellow light is designed to catch people either beating the red light, sitting on the pedestrian lane, or by forcing them into an emergency stop where they risk getting rear ended.

I'd normally stop pero this is highly dependent on which city you are in, minsan nanghuhuli sila if you're on the pedestrian lane (Hi, City of Manila).

Tanchahan lang talaga but this makes driving a chore when you know the traffic enforcers are really out to get you.

Yes.. yes.. madalas ko ito maencounter sa Jupiter corner Makati Ave.

Not to mention you get angry stares from pedestrians... Hindi lang nila alam na not everyone wants to block the pedestrian lane... =/

minsan hihinto ka bago pedestrian kasi nga di kasya space sa unahan.. Yung mga nasa likod bubusinahan ka.. Tapos minsan sisingitan ka pa motor at tricycle kasi di ka nag forward.. mapapa-wow ka na lang.. kahit mahirap sinusunod ko pa din yung natutunan ko.. wag patungan ang pedestrian lane kahit matraffic...

Sa mga automatic transmission o CVT drivers, nasubukan ninyo na ba mag Left Foot Braking?

ginagamit ko lang ang left foot for braking dati nung wala pang hill assist ang gamit kong car.
imo, medyo delikado yung 2 paa ang gamit pag matic.

Never.

In emergency braking, MAYBE, both feet on the brakes. But for daily driving, my left foot is chillax on the dead pedal.

I also know how to drive M/T and even though I seldom get to do it now, I want the muscle memory intact. Left-foot braking on an A/T will just mess that up.

delikado yan sir.. kasi hindi sanay sa gentle na tapak yan left foot.. unlike sa right foot, sanay sa modulated na tapak sa brake at accelerator pedal

[bloowolf]

I do it & practice occasionally. Added skill. Lalo ma sa traffic Manila & EDSA. Kung right foot lang kasi for accel & brake, may lag time when moving from brake to accel.

Sa umpisa yes but, you’d be surprsed how east to get used to it. Practice muna sa open road.
