    I did not get that impression.😎

    Oh of course, max speed limits are "suggestions"... Just be ready with the associated penalties...😉

    We should drive with the traffic... Limited by the Laws of Physics...🤔

    Again, problem here in our country is that we are fixated with the max speed limit... Rare occurrence with anyone being apprehended because of obstructing the traffic....🤣

    Although it doesn’t happen often, I hate it when the car in front of me goes below the speed limit in a city road with no room for overtaking & when a chance for overtaking comes along, they speed up just to prevent us in the back from overtaking then resume their slow ways.
    Another are those in an open road who speed up then brake for no reason then speed up again then brake.

    I am with you bro!

    I think that the speed limits on our expressways are lower than they should be. Some roads can be placed at 70 to 80mph (110 to 130 kmh).

    I admit that I mostly drive over the speed limit but I am not rude to block or impede someone on the expressways. I just pass the slow ones on the road.

    I just think that expressway enforcers should also apprehend those idiots driving below the speed limit. Even worse are those people driving slowly on the passing lane (leftmost lane). These guys impede the traffic flow. If you guys drive like a lazy grandma, stay away from the passing lane.

    Lots of tourists on our roads. IDK why, but for a country that has such bad traffic, we have the most relaxed drivers. A lot drive so slowly even if there is no traffic in front. Sometimes it feels like they have so much spare time. This would be ok if they weren't blocking other drivers like in the slow lane on expressways, but on single lane roads it really blows.

    si ted failon ng dzmm ang nagpa-uso sa ere nang "laws are but suggestions".

    my colleague was driving in the usa.
    he noticed that while he was driving within the speed limits,
    almost every car was whizzing past him.
    even the police helicopter above seemed unmindful.
    "sige na nga...! mag-ala expressway nga tayo..!"
    brrrmmm...
    heh heh.

    Delivery truck park at side street with hazard lights on that cause traffic because a 4 lane street becomes 3 lanes.

    "para raw hindi ma-discharge ang baterya."
    heh heh.

    what car horns on motorcycles?
    personally, it confuses me.
    when i hear one coming from my right rear, i expect a car.
    but when a motorcycle whizzes by,
    i am temporarily confused.

    years ago,
    i almost died that night!
    there was this large container van truck, without container,
    stalled along the outermost lane of then-two-lane slex,
    with out any warning sign or ewd whatsoever.
    not even the regueur lumiliyab na lata.
    along the inner lane beside it, was a slow-moving, poorly-lighted vehicle (provinciano jeep?).
    i swerved to the center divider, which at that time was nothing more than a long strip of depressed ground paved with wild grass.
    whew!

    Next pet peeve - yung mga nakikipag-unahan pa pumasok ng kalsada or eskinita. Tapos it will take them ages to cross or merge into your lane. Pagkapasok nila, napakabagal pa na akala mo may binabasa or may hinahanap. Usually kung may mga passengers makikita mo parang nagdi-diskusyon pa sila. Wala silang pake na hindi maka-overtake yung mga kasunod kasi pwedeng 2-lane road lang siya, or maraming naka-park sa gilid kaya naging one lane na lang. Kung ganun din lang, dapat pinauna na lang muna sana nila yung incoming traffic hanggang medyo lumuwag.

    Ganundin yung mga galing ng side street na may katapat na u-turn slot. Wala silang pake na nahaharangan nila yung incoming traffic instead na sa next u-turn na lang para makapag-merge ng maayos.

    Yung mga PUV like jeepneys at yellow cab na ayaw pa una sa mga private vehicles. Pero hinto naman ng hinto dahil baba sakay. Ano logic nila? Mas marami na istorbo mas maganda? Hindi naman competition sa kanila private vehicles.

    Once may suv na pa merge, etong mabagal na yellow cab at malayo pa eh todo babad ng busina. Then few meters later nag baba. So hinto din yung suv sa likod nya.

    Once may gumawa sa Wife ko nyan sa Longos, one lane each. Nag bababa at nagsasakay jeep sa harap nya. Longos is one lane each direction lang. So she counterflow to overtake since malayo pa yung opposite direction. Yung nag bababa eh biglang humarurot habang naka counterflow na wife ko. She wouldn't make it na kasi malapit na kaalubong. Yung pasalubong na jeep eh nagalit dun sa humarurot na jeep dahil nga delikado ginawa nya. Di ko maintindihan bakit, ego ba?

    Ganyan talaga ang utak at ugali ng mga bano na iyan... Makahanap na lang sila ng katapat... Maghahagis ako ng bente...

    In the two situations where I was tagged for speeding, they were not at the level of speed usual of me. I felt bad about those times.

    124kmh near Luisita at SCTEX
    74kmh at NAIAX

    The NAIAX ticket was not quoted as speeding. The enforcer gave me a DTS - disregarding traffic signs.

    That’s what the shoulder lane is for… but somehow people use it as overtaking if its on the left and parking if it’s on the right… tsk tsk
