Death traps naman talaga ang most public utility vehicles dito.

I once took a Nagtahan bound bus from Makati in the mid 90's - Southstar ata yung bus company. Somewhere between Buendia & the S. Superhighway, biglang nag amoy nasususnog na electrical. Nag panic ang mga tao, problem was, there was ONLY ONE WORKING EXIT- up front, katabi ng driver.

Fortunately, nothing happened. Everybody managed to get off (despite the stampede, iba sa bintana nakadaan), and they snuffed out the fire somehow because they caught it early, but nobody re-boarded the bus.

Take a look at 95% of the buses on EDSA, and you'll see no secondary emergency exits, and if meron man, sealed up. What's even worse? Yung mga naka body wrap (parang tint film) ng advertisements so even the windows are sealed shut.
