abusive diplomatic vehicle

[Bud_wiser]

I was on paseo de roxas, approaching the corner of paseo and makati ave. and paseo de roxas, heading to ayala, passing the citibank building. time was 7.50 am

I saw a white range rover, a newer model, with sirens blaring, speed on the opposite lane heading toward ayala. the idiot didn't even bother to slow down, not to mention that he was counterflowing. He counterflowed just when the light turned green in that lane. There was a rush of cars heading down the street and he met them at full speed. the idiot could have caused and accident. He got passed the light and kept going like he had a license to break the law or kill someone without being liable for it.

His license plate was white and blue, number 1000.

I guess he does have a license to do as he pleases..:mad:

[bardigones]

most likely a pinoy driver. .

that plate number is "untouchable". maybe they're in a hurry.

[mazdamazda]

plate 1000?

that's the car of the ambassador him/herself!

and yes, most likely the one behind the wheel is a pinoy driver - as I don't think that an ambassador would drive like that (but the staff might).

[ian_rex]

oo ambasador's vehicle yan pero ang driver nyan, lech*ng pinoy. saka sa tingin ko, takot din mag maneho dito ang mga foreigner. naku, pag ganyan e dapat pinababayaan na lang e. di na pinapatulan yan, useless and pointless e. may araw din yan. :D

[hagiber]

Covered ba yan ng diplomatic immunity ? Saka kung wala naman yung flag nung country sa labas nung car, ibig sabihin wala sa loob yung ambassador. Baka school service lang yan ng anak ng ambassador, baka late nagising yung mga bata kaya ganun mag drive yung driver para hindi sila ma late sa school .

[ian_rex]

hindi nga yata covered e. mga walang hiya talaga e. kaya hindi umaasenso ang pilipinas kasi maraming walangya at abusado. mantakin mo, ka simpleng bagay lang ang pag sunod sa batas trapiko, di pa magawa! :D

[dyelibins]

hay naku...

noong una, military truck driver, now, diplomat vehicle driver. and maybe many other previous related threads.

saan kaya ang problema. kapag nandito lang naman. kapag nangibang bansa naman, mga behave naman sila. dahil kaya alam nila na di naman sila mahuhuli? and if mahuli, pwede naman maglagay? or kung di pwede maglagay, mababa lang ang penalty?


OT!

[Altis6453]

Just to clarify, under our laws, the staff of a diplomat is likewise covered by diplomatic immunity --- kahit pinoy pa siya. I think the rule holds true for other countries who are members of the UN.

Diplomatic immunity notwithstanding, that does not give them the right to violate our laws with reckless abandon.

Pinoy driver or not, that guy should've been at least reprimanded. wala yata magawa mga yellow boys ni Binay pag blue plates na katapat.

[amacatan]

pinakamaganda sana na nangyari e nakabangga sya ng bus o kaya dyip tapos away sila. pare-pareho kong kaaway ang mga yan e =)

[tagalnasaabroad]

hhmm..dami pang training at training kilangan traffic enforcers..alisin na 'yong ugaling parang alipin ka sa sarili mong bayan..!!..maging tunay kang pinoy na mamamayan at kesehodang diplomatic paeekekeek payan..

persona non grata ipataw dyan..! kung pinoy ang driver..naturuan ng magyabang 'yan ng amo kaya kalaboso din ang bagsak dapat para magising at mahimasmasan ang sira tuktok..!

So far may nakita akong plate na 1000 sa may costal mall kaso ok naman magdrive may escort sa unahan at likuran black yung naka 1000 na plate.
Pero yung nasa batangas ako may feeling VIP talaga Mga 7 yata sila.Naka Expedition na black at tinted two way traffic na nga nagcounterflow pa sa buti nga sa kanya naipit sa na parang sandwich dahil two way traffic...Sayang nga eh hindi natamaan ng truck at bus yung Explorer kundi tatawa talaga ako ng malakas pero ang lapit na talaga siya..

[OTEP]

Dapat ipatapon sa Iraq yung mga ganyan. Dun sila mag wang-wang at magcounterflow hanggang gusto nila.

Masagasaan sana sila ng Hummer.

Asar din ako sa ganyan. 1000 is the license plate of the Ambassador. Dapat indicated yung country dun sa license plate. And kung hindi displayed ang flag, hindi official lakad yan.

Nonetheless, delikado pa din ang ginagawa niya.

[Hero33]

Sad everyone thinks that just cause the driver is nuts it must he must be Filipino!

Believe it or not, many diplomats in our village are escorted by people from their own country, especially the americans!

The white range rover I believe i have seen before belongs to the embassy of Britain.

If I were a diplomat from a first world country, especially one that is part of the "coalition of the willing" I wouldnt want to get stuck in traffic and make myself a sitting duck.

It may sound self righteuous, but I'm sure any one of us put in that situation on a daily basis, be it the ambassador or the children of the ambassador, would rather avoid the risk of such a thing happening.

[OTEP]

Rather than endanger other motorists in his quest for self-preservation - MAG HELICOPTER NA LANG SIYA!

Or at least get something with armor plating.

[knight23]

meron din dito sa cebu, black navigator with 1000 plate and with huge SPINNER WHEELS. palagi rin nag sa-siren.

[sirmykel]

magkano ba maging ambassador?
try ko nga maging ganyan

[lm723]
