    Na pit bump yung coaster kaya nag 90 degree diagonal sa barrier. I dont think those barrier are design for that. They are design for low angle side bump.

    Is it true that this accident happened exactly at the same area wherein Don Mariano bus fell off? Kung totoo man, nakakakilabot!

    If this is indeed true, then it is apparently a coincidence.

    But you cannot avoid that some believers will claim this as some sort of misfortune brought by some paranormal being.

    Different areas, this was near Sun Valley before Bicutan exit, the Don Mariano accident was another 3 kms south.

    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 😁

    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...

    Ganyan nga. May department talag ang mall at mga buildings na ang trabaho ay ayusin ang mga ganyang problem. SO malamang ang family ni fortuner e ganun din ginawa, pinagana nga pera para sa privacy nila.

    IMO, both events had the bus crashing perpendicular to the railing. I don't think those railings were designed to catch that. I would think a heavy wall would be solution to this but unfortunately that is just too cumbersome and expensive to set up.
