Bad motoring etiquette: What you hate the most.

[ekfinder]

pero alam naman natin ang fast lane, sumunod nalang po tayo,

I understand kaya nga for overtaking lang yung lane na yun.Kaya lang minsan oovertake ka din at di ka naman makakaabala sa kanya dahil isang milya pa layo nya ayaw nya nandun ka flash na nang flash nang ilaw para bang sya lang ang pede dumaan dun and sometimes scenario is a group of vehicles is following a slower vehicle in the fast lane and it happens that the car behind you is flashing its lights are you going to yeild? If you know you are also driving fast or faster than the vehicle behind you if not for the slow vehicle in front the group of cars who shouldnt be there at all.I don't just flash my lights if want to pass a vehicle in front of me I understand the situation first, thats just me.

Besides, ilang seconds lang naman syang aapak nang konti sa brake nya di ba? Tsaka oovertake ka din naman.

Pag nangyayari sa kin yun, nasa leftmost lane ako dahil umoovertake ako tapos meron sa harap ko na biglang nagsignal na oovertake din pero malayo pa, brake muna nang konti tapos pagbalik nya sa middle lane saka ko aapakan ulit ang gas... di ba ganun naman dapat normally?

[SIZE=1]The Law of the Garbage Truck[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]One day, I hopped into a taxi and took off for the airport . We were driving in the right lane when suddenly, a black car, jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed the brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. I mean, was really friendly. So I asked, "Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!" This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck'[/SIZE]


[SIZE=1]He explained, "Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you. NEVER take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on with the routine life." Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.[/SIZE]


[SIZE=1]The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so...... 'Love the people who treat you right… Pray for the ones who don't.'[/SIZE]

best story I ever read so far in this site. Lesson well taken.

for example po ba, yung hiway/expressway has speed limit of, say, 100kmh, ok lang ba kung bumabad sa "overtaking lane" yung car running at that said limit?

Sa tingin ko ay depende . . . kung tumatakbo ka ng 100 kph then sa rear view mirror mo ay may nakita mong may paparating na car * an excess speed of 100+kph, then you have to make way. Dito kasi sa P'nas e maraming hindi sumusunod sa mga batas. Ang mahalaga ay dun ka lagi sa safe zone.

you said it yourself... Overtaking Lane yun and not Babad Lane.

basically, nope. di po pwede... unless you're going to overtake or your are faster than those cars na nasa middle lane... & walang mas mabilis pa sa'yo. if ever na meron, like what sir jjm said, you need to make way.. tapos habol/overtake ka na lang ulit. then pagnalampasan mo na lahat.. balik ka na ulit sa middle lane..

merong mga drivers kasi na di nakakaintindi ng "fast lane"... gustong magbabad dun.. tapos manhid kahit nagpa-flash ka na... kaya tuloy oovertake ka na lang sa right side. pero kung bus dala ko.. ingunguso ko sa pwetan nya. actually, pansin ko yan sa ibang bus driver.. palibhasa malaki.. hehehe!

[moQ_]

ahhh.. kasi iniisip ko, kaya siguro ayaw umalis nung ibang car sa overtaking lane is because they are running na on the speed limit.

para sa akin , kung tumatakbo sila ng 100kmh and ayaw umalis sa overtaking lane, iniintindi ko na lang... siguro masyado masunurin sa speed limit.. speed limit of 100kmh na napapanahon pa ba?!

pero kung under 80kmh takbo sa overtaking lane, ahh... ibang usapan na yan.... hehe...

add ko lang po, sa SLEX ba, ang fast/overtaking lane ay yung asa rightmost lane?? hahahaha! kasi dun sa lane na yun maluwag and madali mag overtake! only in the Philippines?!

[roberto_minosa]

papz, ingat.. baka irresponsible gun owner at maiinis sa'yo..

So far, wala pa naman umaabot...Joke!

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>

Really, it's nonsense to stay on the overtaking lane if there's nothing to be overtaken except you yourself.

[tanatej]

Yung sisignal ka na papasok ka sa trapik pero yung nasa harap mo tututok pa para di ka makasingit. LOL kanyang kanya na yung kalsada. Damot.

[renzo_d10]

^^ Ganyan ako lalo na sa mga taong nagcocounterflow or di makapaghintay sa pila at uunahan ka then icucut ka sa harap. Ikaw itong, naghintay sa pila tas sila wala pang 30 seconds, asa unahan na kagad sila.

But, if a vehicle is coming from a certain road then papasok sa main road ... pagbibigyan ko.

[praetor91313]

Me too. Pag maayos naman ang pagpasok nya, what's wrong with allowing one car to merge di ba? I lose a few seconds of my traveltime, that's all.

Pero pag ang haba ng pila tapos may galing sa likod na biglang lalabas sa pila at pipilitin pumasok sa unahan ko, e ibang usapan na yun. Panggugulang na yun. Di ko usually binibigyan ng space para makasingit.

Kahit yung may makiki-merge na sasakyan, papayagan ko yung isa tapos yung nasa likod nya pipilit din sumingit at dinidikitan yung pinauna ko, naku-- naiinis din ako sa ganun. Di ba ang rule dyan is to merge alternately? Karamihan di alam yun e... mas gusto pang makipag-gitgitan.

[praetor91313]

Madaming ganyan lalo na sa skyway, yung pababa papuntang Sucat. Minsan pa ayaw makipag-alternate ng Benz na mukhang very sophisticated businessman yung driver, nakita nang sunud-sunod yung alternate na pag-merge tapos nung turn ko na, aba-- ayaw ako pasingitin at talagang dinikitan yung nasa harap nya, e "merge alternately" nga ang unwritten rule doon e. Samantalang yung jeepney driver nagbibigay, pinauna na ko dahil alam nyang ako talaga dapat ang sunod. Sino ngayon ang mukhang may pinag-aralan?

[tanatej]

Forgot to mention na galing pala akong side street at papasok sa main road... yung main road parating trapik kasi barado ng mga mababagal na malalaking trak. Asa nalang ako sa may mga mabubuting road etiquette para papasukin kami sa main traffic, kaya I factor in that waiting time sa timetable ko.

I also don't condone yung mga nag-counterflow para iwas trapik tapos sisingit sa unahan ng pila pag go signal na. I shake my head in disgust pero pinapapasok ko na rin. Usually mga gumagawa nun mga taxi driver. Pag nabangga niya ako wala naman mababayad yun and my time is very important para i-aksaya sa pakikipag negotiate sa insurance companies, police reports et al. Not worth the trouble. May karma din mga yan.

Iyan ang "Executive Lane"..... :hysterical:

[roberto_minosa]

Ganyan din sa NLEX! Pero minsan mas maluwag yung katabi ng rightmost lane.

[moQ_]

sa South Super Highway, "STAY INSIDE YELLOW LINES".. why cant they stay inside the yellow lines?! ang nangyayari 2 lanes lang e...

[praetor91313]

Yung walang pakundangan kung bumusina.

This morning I was driving along Amorsolo street and had to make a right turn kaya lang may taxi sa left ko na nagleft din at nag-cut ng corner so he blocked my way kaya I let him proceed. Yung lumang pajero sa likot ko binusinahan ako. Di ko lang pinansin.

When I got to dela Rosa street, I was at the rightmost lane and I signaled I was going right towards Adelantado. Aba, yung pajero busina na naman nang busina! After turning right, nasa Adelantado na ko, dumiretso yung pajero ng dela Rosa but before moving on, nagpahabol pa sya ng isang napakahabang busina.

Kaya nga pumupwesto na ko sa right dahil magra-right turn ako e. Natat*e na siguro yung driver at galit sa lahat ng nasa harapan nya. Second, that was a hospital zone with a sign for "no blowing of horns" clearly posted.

I told my wife, natae na siguro sa pantalon nya kaya galit na galit.
