Bad motoring etiquette: What you hate the most.

[istan]

Mga motor na sisingit sa kanan, i cut ka, then turn left. Maraming ganyan sa Villamor exit.

[dishcom]

Naku kagabi. Yung innova na asa NLEX wala naman sinusundan pumipitik ng brake then asa overtake line pa. Tas ang tagal lumipat sa regular line, makaka accident.

Iniilawan na namin e gumigitna pa sa dalwang line.

Uwian nanaman sa probinsiya, dame volume sa nlex kanina.

As usual madami nanaman left lane hoggers!

Ang fast lane nanaman eh yung 2 outer lanes!

I really avoid NLEX driving on a holiday weekend. Dyan lumalabas yung mga ogags na hindi marunong mag maneho ng maayos sa highway. Either kating-kati humataw or kulang nalang mag-camping sa fast lane.

True.

Gaya last night, pauwi kami from Pampanga naman volume of vehicles is in the 2 innermost lanes.

Bago mag bocaue toll plaza may accident pa sa fast lane, wasak yung alterra ata yun (not sure).

at syempre madami oto pipila sa ec trip lane, not realizing wala booth dun.

sulit ang easy trip pag ganitong holidays, passing the long queue like a boss

Madalas ka ba sa Pampanga?

Sarap sa EC Trip lane pag dinadaanan mo yung mga humahataw. Sarap mag-wave.

For those of you who regularly pass through by the Commonwealth overpass during the evening, I am sure you know this.

You will never fail to see drivers that cut everyone at the overpass just to skip the line. Most of the time, they are UV Express. The drivers of UV Express vans never seem to give a single damn about what others think about their driving. Less common are taxis and private cars, but they are still caught in the act. It causes way more traffic than just waiting in line. I say the police should seriously monitor and fix up that area as soon as possible.

Me I use nalang underpass... Lalo na pag mahaba Ang pila.. Pataas...

Minsan I was tempted to cut in na din.. Parang mas madali kasi pumasok pag Nandun ka mismo sa hiwalayaan...

They should put extended barriers like what they've done with C5 Elevated U-Turn. It works and that implementation alone helps ease traffic quite significantly on that stretch.

What I do there is to just stay in the leftmost lane early on, habang nagkakagulo yung second lane fending off those who are cutting in.

From market market to c5 bro, ganyan din pilit ko dumiretso sa leftmost. Ayaw ko makipagsabayan sa ilalim ng elevated uturn.

[soulfly023]

Beast mode yang mga fx/uv van na galing ng kalayaan pa c5/ uturn konting sundot lang nasa unahan na, minsan dyan ako sa market market dumaan grabe bagal mas mabilis pa din dumaan ng kalayaan exit ng uptown

Last night at Rockwell, Black Kia Carens:
- First refuses to let me through and blocks the intersection (since puno yung pa-deretso)
- Proceeds to go to my intended lane (which is for vehicles turning right) and makes me wait for an effing 5 minutes as he's going the other direction and is trying to squeeze into his own lane.

Drop me a line pag napa-holiday ka sa Pampanga minsan.

Hey guys, I hope you can help me out with my inquiry.
I was exiting an area perpendicular to Commonwealth, so I had to pass through a road wherein one part is the large sidewalk along the highway. Before turning right and merging with the highway traffic, I was already looking left to see if there were any oncoming cars. Then from my right, here came these two men on a motorcycle counterflowing on the sidewalk... I was probably a few inches a way from hitting them. It did not help that the sun was brightly glaring from my right side, so I did not see them at all. Good thing I was able to stop before there was any contact. The guys gave me a bad look and I just gestured a sign of apology and left to proceed with my own business.

Now my question is, was what they did even right? Counterflowing along the highway's sidewalk where people are supposed to be walking? A short while after that close call, I thought about it and even considered that they would have been the ones wrong all along. I know I would have been partly to blame if we did make contact, but I think that their act of counterflowing on a highway sidewalk could also be a ground for argument.

Sidewalk is for people walking. Not people riding a motorized vehicle. Either way, you will pay regardless na kasalanan nila or kasalanan mo talaga.

My thoughts exactly...
If it were walking people or someone riding a bike, I would not have protested one bit. I guess your stand is the two guys on the motorcycle were at fault. I guess I should have told them of their wrongdoing after all.

As for the paying though, the system we have really does irritate me. I really think we need to amend our laws to protect ourselves from undisciplined motorists (and even pedestrians). Why should we just let things be? If other countries can do so, so can we.

To answer my own question (haha), I saw this from a Canadian website that advises not only motorcyclists, but even cyclists.

I quote,
"Is it OK to ride against traffic?
No.

Riding against traffic may seem like a good idea because you can see the cars that are passing you, but it's not.

Cars which pull out of driveways, parking lots, and cross streets (ahead of you and to the left), which are making a right onto your street, aren't expecting traffic to be coming at them from the wrong way. They won't see you, and they'll plow right into you."

^ I was in the exact same situation as the one mentioned above.

Second nature na natin na mainis na mga nag momotor. Sa sobrang dami, sweeping generalization ang nangyayari. Tama ka, kung ako nasa lugar nyo sir, di ako magproprotesta kung mga taong naglalakad lang yan sa sidewalk.
