    Okay, this is another incident caused by poorly maintained infrastructure.

    It was just this night around 9:45 PM when I was driving home with my family at EDSA-Cubao Northbound (Araneta Center at my right, underpass at my left). The queue at the red light was quite long so we were waiting for the light to turn green and then suddenly we got surprised because a railing at our rear right collapsed. This incident scared my little brother and my little sister as well as the taxi driver behind us. The incident also caused multiple scratches on the right side of my rear bumper, tailgate and taillight.

    I am still very displeased with what happened to my car because this is an inconvenience on my part. Not to mention it caused trauma to my young siblings. Ang lakas ng tama eh, sa gulat ko nabitaw ko yun brake at umabante konti yun kotse. Kala ko biangga ako sa likod. My mom said hindi naman, nagulat lang daw talaga ako. Good thing no one was hurt.

    Dito pumapasok ang kasabihan na "kahit anong ingat mo may aksidente parin"

    Almost the same incident happened to me. Nilipad naman ng malakas na hangin kasagsagan ng bagyo yung steel fence sakto sa front left side ng kotse, resulta ay gasgas at dimple.
