    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... =/

    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?
    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

    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.
