^ Yan yung mga bwisit. :hysterical: Sila na nga nagcocounterflow sila pa may gana mag-flash flash ng headlights.

Kung ganito lang kotse ko ...

.... aba langya walang atrasan. Diretso kung diretso. Bangga kung bangga. :hysterical:

Kaso hindi eh.

Just yesterday sa may E.Rod (na naman) may nagcounterflow na motorcycle sa harapan ko eh hindi ako makakabig sa kanan dahil may sasakyan, binusinahan ko ng matagal hanggang sa magkasalubong na kami. Aba, ayaw talaga tumabi at nagstop din sa harap ko. Pinagbuksan ko tuloy ng bintana at pinagsabihan ng "counterflow yan brad ah!", hindi man lang nagsorry, tinignan pa ako ng masama at sinagi pa side mirror ko. Ayun namura ko tuloy siya ng malutong.

Sa driver ng motorcycle: Natatae ka na dre? Pasalamat ka at di kita sinasagasaan! BOBO MO, NO READ NO WRITE KA ATA KAYA DI MO ALAM MGA TRAFFIC RULES GUNGGONG! Maswerte ka at kasama ko gf ko kundi bebwelta ako at hahabulin kita! TANG*NA KA!

i think this driver was trying to impress his female companion since they are the only ones inside the vehicle thinking that i was a newbie since i still dont have my plates with me. as the saying goes, "pag pumatol ka sa gago, mas gago ka.." and it may have been a bad decision on my part to went toe-to-toe with him. but it would be beneficial for me that time to be out of that situation at that moment rather than endure his so called "machismo" driving habit.

Because 60-70 kph was too slow for sqt-clark. It was that simple.

What would you have done? Bore out the slow speed until you reach Manila from Bataan?

BTW, sqt-clark, you were not on the southbound lane of SCTEX, you were on the NORTHBOUND (since SCTEX goes up north from Bataan to Tarlac).

Just saying.

sir,as I stated, it was a bad decision on my part but I was forced to do it. what i shared was a simple story of a driver cruising peacefully but was harassed by another driver who doesn't want to be overtaken in a highway running at a city limits speed. no offense meant sir, apologies if i have offended you but i was merely sharing my experience. but to say that we are of the same nature, i beg to disagree on that and i guess it was uncalled for. as the saying goes, "ang aso kahit anong bait pag nasukol mangangagat din.."

+1. btw, thanks for the correction sir.

Pasikat lang nga yan. I would've done the same thing. You've humbled yourself twice but he kept on being a nuisance. Pasikat nga siguro sa pasahero nya or they could be having a fight and he was taking out all his aggressions on you. Ha! But na lang pinahiya mo sya.

**renzo_d10** · June 4th, 2011 01:08 PM

Hindi yan pasikat, may topak yan. :hysterical: I would've done the same thing, even if it means to exceed the expressway's speed limit just to go ahead of f*ckers like him. Baka madisgrasya pa kayo sa sobrang bagal niya at sa sobrang " unstable " niya magdrive.

And besides 60kph in SCTEX ? Oh boy, are you kidding me ? Atleast go a hundred.

Iyan ang mga g*go at ung*s sa kalye.... Mabagal ang takbo, given the road condition, time of the day, weather etc. pero, ayaw namang magpa-overtake... Aksidente ang hanap ng mga iyan... Dapat, iyan ang hinuhuli for provoking other motorists...

people who steps on the throttle in intersections for the sake na mauna kahit pa ang layo pa niya sa kanto...hay, no.1 cause of collisions

This is the reason why, even if I have the right of way as I'm inside the intersection or yellow box, I still proceed slowly because at any moment an idiot twenty meters away would accelerate instead of slow down in an attempt to overtake me.

Perhaps the Philippines has a lot of drivers with arthritis of the foot as they find it difficult to move their feet from the gas pedal to the brake pedal.

Eto mukhang wala pa nakabanggit: pag nasa rotonda ka, ikaw ang may right of way. Kaya may mga linya sa labas ng rotonda para mag full stop muna bago pumasok ng rotonda. Eh mga asungot, dire-direcho. Yung mga nasa rotonda pa yung hihinto at papadaanin nalang yung mga asungot para gumalaw yung traffic.
