    Please Drive safely

    Speeding. No one thinks big of you.

    Marami pa yan:

    * Avoid nor reduce speeding in an intersection...
    * Avoid nor reduce speeding and always use signal lights when turning...
    * Avoid texting while driving...as much as possible, find a shoulder and stop before replying text ( in case of emergency )...
    * Always follow the speed limit...
    * Use a headset when answering a call while driving...
    * Always check the breaks before leaving...
    * Always use hazard lights when using the shoulder for emergency situation...
    * Most important " BE ALERT " and " BE A RESPONSIBLE DRIVER " at all times...

    Drive safe...

    add ko lang:

    -maintain safe distance
    -wag mag-aaway sa loob ng sasakyan (emotions may trigger some stupidity)
    -keep your vehicle in a straight line (helps a lot when braking)
    -wake up early.

    it's not the speed that kills, actually it's the stupidity.

    if your speeding, well, that's stupidity.

    +1 on this, speed is relative.

    i've got goosebumps on this video. i felt guilty when i drive recklessly sometimes especially on hi-speed roads. it is stupidity and temptation that kills.

    This is a nice video but reality say's diffrent many of us still drive's fast and crazy at one point or the other maybe it is because of age and mood, now im a little bit old and mature i drive responsible but when i was young im one of the stupid drivers in manila. Buti na lang hindi sa akin nag yari ang mga ganito. The video makes me think of the past and think what will i do if this happen to me or to one of my family.

    Asterisk lang dito. The safest speed is the speed everyone else is driving at. Driving at 80 on a road where people are going at 100 is just as dangerous as going 120, specially if you are in the passing lane.

    When you are dead, it really doesn't matter if you hit someone or if someone hit you ... My .02

    Sorry I just hate those a$$holes crawling and overstaying on the passing lane. Pero totoo po ito.

    Saw this before, but might I suggests the moderator sticky this thread as a reminder for everyone to be careful behind the wheel.

    I agree on the whole speeding thing...

    Just want to add... its not only in the speed... its also on driving responsibly like pup2 said... right now i'm in canada for an extended business meeting and I drive a car everyday... their speed limit here is less than ours... 60 kph max... I'm sure most of us would say that on the open road 60kph is soooo slow... that's how i usually feel, but when in rome do what the romans do... respect their law...

    even with their max speed a little bit lower, they still do have accidents... so better safe than sorry... avoid speeding, drive responsibly and be alert...

    Its always been my tagline to "Assume everyone on the street is stupid so I have to be extra careful" when driving.

    Dami ko nang nakitang sa kalsada, tumatawid ng di tumitingin, lack of common sense will kill you. Kahit sa intersection, kahit na green ako at mabilis ang dating ko, babagalan ko pa rin at titingin, lagi kong ina-assume na may isang mokong na mag-be-beat ng red light.

    Kababalita lang sa TV. A red mitsubishi strada smashed into the railings and double cement barriers around Quezon Memorial Circle before being stopped by a tree.

    It did not kill the passenger and driver (all were badly hurt, the driver screaming in pain) but I bet this vehicle was running no less than 60 to 80 kph in an area with a speed limit of 30 kph.

    yun naman ang mali sa atin eh, yung cement barriers, dapat yan plastic na may tubig sa loob, hindi semento.

    Pareho tayo sir. Idagdag na natin kapag nakaharang ang isang bus sa isang street (so wala ka ng sight kung may papalikong kotse from the street and into the road you're in). I always assume na baka may lumabas biglang kotse na kakaliwa or dederecho that's why I slow down. Also kapag traffic sa kabilang lane tapos katabi mo lang sila sa lane mo, I assume na baka may tumawid or may motor na lumabas at di tumitingin.

    RE: tumatawid ng di tumitingin, guilty ako dito kanina nung tumawid ako ng isang intersection (pedestrian ako kanina). Nagkataon lang. Noong papatawid na ako and go ang signal for pedestrians. Di ako tumingin sa kaliwa because stop yung mga vehicles across the intersection eh. Sakto may papakanang Innova so hinto siya then busina ng medyo may katagalan. Nasa isip ko ako ang may right of way dahil ako ang pedestrian, pero guilty rin ako kasi di ako tumingin sa kaliwa.
