    There are a lot of reasons why they flagged you down, namely:

    Tinted plate cover...
    Expired registration...
    No seatbelts...
    Commemorative plates...
    Etc...

    It's pretty much pointless to ask US why they are flagging you down... if they gave you a ticket and believe that you have done no wrong you can contest it at the MMDA Adjucation Board and even report there if was an attempt to extort money from you.

    If we expect other motorists and traffic enforcers to be courteous and law-abiding we should with ourselves.

    Sorry this thread is not meant to ask forumers why they are flagging me down I know no one would know and its pointless unless we have madam auring reading this thread. It was not my intention to create a guessing game thread as well.

    Im just asking what are their business and who are they because it seems like they are flagging down every car they have on sight. The situation was pretty unusual.

    This could also serve as a warning to other people passing that area.

    Beating the red light daw yung violation ko.

    I told the policemen what really happened that the light was green when I crossed the intersection at naabutan lang ako ng red dahil may sudden build up and the cars ahead of me were moving naman when I crossed the intersection. Hindi ko sinungitan yung pulis kahit inis na inis ako. Small talk and I told them to please let me go already coz I was late for school. Buti lumusot at hindi na nanghingi ng kotong.
    Malambing siguro itong si Ms. Cathy

    I was driving last night along Kalayaan Avenue towards C5. After passing the intersection (of the road going to Bonifacio) there were blue boys with yellow boys flagging down vehicles. I saw they have the smoke emission test equipment.

    Sir sana po huminto ka para nalaman mo di ba?

    Seriously tho, sana hindi maging norm na pinapara na tayo e ayaw pa natin huminto porket sa tingin natin e wala tayong violation. Insulto din naman kasi sa authority nila un. Granted na marami talagang rotten sa ranks nila, e wag na tayong gumaya sa kanila. If we can not respect the person behind the uniform, at least e ung office being represented na lang ang igalang natin. Otherwise lalong wala na talaga tayo patutunguhan.

    I was flagged down yesterday around 6pm on the same spot, along Buendia, EDSA bound, just after crossing Paseo. I was in my CRDI Carens at that time. Stopped my car a good 50 meters past him, turned on my hazard light and waited for him to come to me.

    Traffic Enforcer (TE1): Sir, lisensya nyo po.
    Me: Bakit po? (emphasis on the "PO" para medyo magalang ang dating)
    TE1: May violation kayo Sir eh.
    Me: Ano po yung violation ko?
    TE1: Ah, eh,, (Sabay tingin dun sa kasama nya na nasa likod ng kotse ko na parang nagta-tanong ng: ano nga ba violation nito?).
    TE2- itinuro yung tambutso ko. (saw his gesture via my rear view mirror)
    TE1: Boss, smoke belching kayo.
    Me: in a sarcastic tone of voice: ako? smoke belching?
    TE1: yes sir, smoke belching kayo.
    Me, again in the same sarcastic voice: baka itong kotse ko ang smoke belching, di ako.
    TE1- umiling & ngumising aso.
    Me: boss, bago lang itong kotse ko, imposible naman na smoke belching.
    Then I revved my engine to 3k rpm and said:
    Me: ayan oh, wala ngang usok eh, amuyin mo pa, amoy langis ng niyog.
    At that time TE2 approached and said in a sternly manner:
    TE2: Sir, nakaka-istorbo na po kayo sa daan.
    Me: in my most poker-faced impression: Baket? Ano ba talaga violation ko?
    TE2: Medyo pagalit pa: Sige na umalis ka na, makulit ka pa eh!
    Me: in my ngising-aso face: thank you ha!
    Then I waved to them as I slowly speed away.

    Hehe guilty nga ko. Hindi naman halatang tinakbo ha ko sila kasi hindi naman ako nag speed up. Normal cruising speed lang habang pumapara sila. Sobrang alanganin kasi talaga and I was infront of the pack of vehicles coming from the stoplight. Inisip ko lang yung mga nasa likod kong kotse vs dun sa pag stop ko sa wala naman kwentang violation na sasabihin sakin. Its just a waste of time. Tsaka ano kaya yun, pumwesto sila dun para manghuli ng vehicles? Hindi na lang kaya sila magtraffic sa edsa, mas may pakinabang pa sila.

    Galing boss! This shows na nanghuhulidap lang talaga sila. Ang kakapal! As I said kung nagaayos na lang sila sana ng traffic, mas may pakinabang pa sila. Bulok ang style nila.
