Another bus falls off the Skyway

[lowslowbenz]

The Skyway should be renamed ...... SKYFALL

[Noel Salisipan]

just want to comment, parang OT cguro to.. but i just get annoyed when a mini bus is called a coaster...why cant it just be called a mini bus.. a coaster is a mini bus made by toyota, a mini bus Rosa is mini bus made by Mitsubishi, a county mini gus is made by hyundai. a civilian is a mini bus made by nissan. a combi mini bus is made by Kia. anyways just ranting. heheh.. but i think the MINI BUS that fell off the skyway, is a hyundai county.

Parang "colgate" at "ajax" lang yan.hehehe

Anyway, perpendicular yung tama sa railing kaya tumalon yung minibus.
Kahit anong tibay ng railing pag ganon lang ang design e sisirain talaga lalo na kung bus o truck ang babangga sa ganong speed.

IMO mahina and not properly designed ang railings na ginamit dyan.. it should be higher and sturdier...

sa dami dami ng nalaglag dyan... kitang kita naman na parang walang tibay yan railings na yan...

its not serving it purpose...

Walang matibay sa higway pag high speed at uncontrolled vehicle ang tatama sa isang bagay.
Ang problema yung discipline nung driver sa pagmamaneho. Posibleng puyat at nakaidlip yung driver nung mga oras na yun.

2x ng nangyari sa akin na napapikit ako habang nagda-drive (long drive), buti na lang at naramdaman ko yung mga bato sa shoulder nung pumapaling na yung gulong. Third time, pag may sign na ng fatique at sleepiness, tabi na sa gilid, ikot sa sasakyan o pahinga muna sa isang safe na lugar.

That's the power of marketing and brand recall, and Toyota is second to none in the Philippines when it comes to brand recall.

Just as people say Xerox instead of photocopy, or Pampers instead of diapers, people also say FX instead of AUV and Coaster instead of minibus.

I suggest you just let it go, or you'll end up crazy. Baka sa susunod ikaw na tumalon sa Skyway niyan ��

i know its the power of recall. i just think its sad. that in this day and age, people are still ignorant of simple things. now people being ignorant would drive me crazy..

back to the topic.. na tangal ba talaga ang railings?

[niky]

While that kind of hit may be impossible to guard against without incurring major cost, a better barrier would have stopped the Don Mariano accident.

Even though the drivers are at fault, there is no getting around the fact that portions of the barrier are inadequate, and that the drainage and smoothness of portions of the Skyway are sorely lacking. For a road that costs so much in toll, you expect much better.

According to the DOTC chairman they are now considering to increase the height of the railings as part of the safety measure in skyway. It doesn't look good aesthetically but safety rules over aesthetic.

ganito daw ipapalit para walang hulog, kaso tuhog ang aabutin

[miko101130]

the design of the current skyway or skyfall will again be continued and used sa stage 3...

now the bus/vehicles will fall not only on roads below but maybe on houses and other establishments...

pwede ba dumaan bus sa stage 3? pag nahulog yun sa meh sta.mesa at araneta sigurado dami patay

OT: LOL!!! pinoy tayo. nasanay sa brand names. nong maliit pa ako, inuutusan tayong bumili ng colgate na close-up at bumili ng gasul na shellane. anyway, dapat baguhin ang design ng skyfall. the two accidents should be a wake up call for the operators of the skyfall..

Nice, para matakot mga speed/reckless freak.(hehehe)

[FMJ JHP]

para sa akin wala ng dapat baguhin sa design ng skyway dapat ang baguhin ay ang striktong pagpapatupad ng speed limit at ang pagbibigay ng mataas na penalty/fine para sa mga lalabag dito.
