Bad motoring etiquette: What you hate the most.

Dapat baag hazard habang nag back up? Parang nasa kabilang thread na dapat hindi. Or mali lang basa ko.

Didn't get to see that thread you are referring to.

Pero kasi pag nakasunod ka sa isang sasakyan at biglang nag hazard, for sure, mage-effort ka na iwasan kasi its either mag park cya or nasiraan and needs to stop. In that way, the parking/stopping vehicle dont get to be honked relentlessly by following the vehicle who gets to stop suddenly.

Experience ko kac lalo na sa mga car parks sa mall noong teenager pa ako at walang konsiderasyon sa ibang motorista, ikot then pag may nakita or nalagpasan na vacant parking slot, hinto den bigla backing (baka maunahan pa eh. Kaya madalas nababad trip at busina to the max ang mga nasa likod ko. hehehe).
Pero I observed (not sure though if it is really the right and proper way to do) that there are motorists na pag magpa-park na or hihinto cguro nasiraan or just need to momentarily stop while traversing a street/highway. Since then, ganun na din gnagawa ko and di nako binubusinahan ng mga sasakyan sa likod ko. Kaya cguro ganun na din naging expectation ko since it worked for me.

I really hate idiots who counterflow then later on try to cut into you lane. This guy nearly sideswiped my side mirror

kapag mga ganyan di ko talaga pinapasingit. dikitan ko yung sa harap ko para hanap sya masisingitan dun sa harap. okay na yun sa akin kesa harap ko mismo.

Depende na lang I guess, this is more forgivable than turning it on during heavy downpour.
I do it too pag paatras ako mag park tapos may nakita ako parating.

Usually though, lalo na pag may sumusunod sa likod, I just signal either left or right (kung saan yung park slot) and most people get it naman at di na didikit masyado.

Problema kasi dito sa Pinas yung iba ayaw gumamit ng Signal light. Minsan kabago bago pa nga ng kotse biglaan na lang kakaliwa-kakanan wala man lang ka-signal signal. Kasama sa bayad ng kotse niyo yan gamitin niyo naman.

Friday the 13th!

Some close calls, but thankfully nothing more than that.

FX decides to swerve to the side and do a full stop to pick up passengers. Bonehead driver then automatically opens his door. WTF?! At least he had the presence of mind to close it in a split second knowing I was there.

MC decides to overtake me, and then slows down as if he were just taking a slow Sunday ride in a backwater town. He was probably asking to be run over. Grrr!

Red Innova takes his time along Boni in Mandaluyong. Alanganin. Slow enough to hog the road, making you want to contemplate overtaking him, but just fast enough that you can't, with all the jeepneys moving here and there.

Jeepney along Ayala is weaving left and right -- parang nagbabakasakali kung may magbibigay sa kanya. It's a packed street you mor0n!

And my favorite of the day, a dark gray Hyundai Getz. We're in two adjacent Makati Ave lanes. I'm diagonally to his left about a foot behind him but about to get beside him. He has the gall to cut into my lane. Ok, sige lang, I wasn't being aggressive anyway. So I end up following him thru Makati Ave, past jeepneys and pedestrians, etc. He takes the rightmost lanes as we are about to reach South Ave so I thought he was going straight. I take the leftmost lane, overtaking a Pajero that didn't seem to know what he wanted to do. Then here comes Getz. Cuts about 3 lanes of traffic to get in front of me and turn left. WTF?! Ayaw ngang maunahan.

^Happy Friday. Hehe...

Dumadami na yung mga nag counterflow along Santolan every morning. Yung isang madalas nakikita ko mag counterflow, aside from the GTExpress vans, isang red two door Pajero with a sticker of a car club (same as club as the BMW 1 series with no rear plates).

And yes, i also never give way to those who counterflow in traffic. When i see a single vehicle is coming out from a side street or establishment and on the other side of the road and maayos yung signal niya, those i let in.

Yung magagaling na maghaharang ng intersection.

At Jupiter cor Polaris earlier, white delivery van blocks intersection to turn to Polaris. Stop pa naman sila. Tsk tsk! Taxi driver behind van stops but room isnt quite enough.

Nasigawan ko yung driver ng van. Binubusinahan ko na iabante nya pa at malayo ang nasa harap nya. Ayaw tumingin. Nag-aayos pa ng tshirt. Ayun, na "Hoy abante pa!" ng di oras.

Parang alam ko rin 'yang red Pajero na yan.

Speaking of the BMW, have you seen him lately, Vinj? Di ko na kasi nakikita. I wonder if he already placed his RP plates back to where it should originally be -- at the back of the car, not somewhere inside the car or inside the house covered with dirt.

*IMm29: Guess you're not alone. Marami rin ako close calls yesterday.

1st: Grabe traffic sa Northbound EDSA kahapon kahit mga 4pm palang, and it's due to the Santolan underpass.

Anyway, was merging sa leftmost lane and this idiot on a stock green Civic EK VTi decided not to give way. Okay, pwede sana kung bumusina siya or nag-flash ng light man lang. But no! He decided to creep towards my side, on a slow-pace.. due to that, akala ko magbibigay. But then, when I was so close getting into his lane he decided to speed up at umambang babanggain talaga ako sa gilid. Syempre since yung bagong kotse ko dala nun I immediately swerved to the right and let him pass. When I got into his lane, he did the same with the other cars that wanted to go into our lane.

Oy manong kingina ka. Alam ba ng amo mo ginagawa mo sa kotse niya.

2nd: I was cruising along Tomas Morato yesterday then an idiot on a grey CRV stopped in front of me. Akala ko naman mag-uturn, so nung nag-left na siya I decided to accelerate slowly then nung almost pasok na hood ko bigla siya umatras. I halted. Backed up a bit, then let him park. Grabe, kaya nga nauso signal light diba. Kahit hazard, signal left or right wala!

friday the 13th and late post.

i was about to go to parking C ng megamall and palagi kong way is kakanan sa st. francis kasi minsan nadale na ako sarado yung pasukan pag dineretso mo going to edsa from st. francis eh kaya kumakanan ako para sure.

before palang sa dulo traffic na kasi lakas ng ulan that time gabi na eh and super traffic na din yata edsa.

so ng makapasok ako sa left aba akalain mo itong FX driver na singal ng signal at pilit sinisingit yung FX nya hanggang sa dahil wala sya paki alam masagi eh give way ako para iwas perwisyo.

aba ang gagong driver lalabas pala ng edsa pero pumasok doon sa left papuntang way ng parking C ng megamall.

at syempre dahil traffice going to edsa di ako makalabas papasok sa left kaya busina ako ng busina pero wala sya paki alam.

pati guard walang paki alam kaya yun ng maka lusot ako sa unti unting andar nila at andar ko binaba ko bintana minura ko guard sinabi ko na wag mo titigan mga sasakyan mag traffic ka kaya ka naka assign dyan.

at minura ko din yung FX driver aba binusinahan pa ako kung di ko kasam misis ko non bababain ko pa yun para sapakin.

kakainit ulo mga gagong driver na di nag iisip minsan nakaka istorbo sila sa ginagawa nila na kahit hindi ka ma traffic eh nadadamay ka pa sa kanila.

Why is it that some people have the nerve to get mad at those who are "slow" to move out of their parking slots. Just last week, I had to remind a spoiled brat that he had no right to harass me because I was still arranging my groceries. Long story short, I went back inside the mall to get some coffee & relax. I already paid for the slot for the entire day. I can't be obligated to rush myself just so I can accomodate a stranger who lacks manners. If you can't wait, go find another slot. 😡

Right move

Those impatient parking slot seekers should be caught a lesson
