    I'm really glad that no one uses illegal sirens and blinkers na though I will come clean that I too had those before waay back 02-04 in my black safari and suburban.But never did I abuse it.I know it is illegal thats why i took it out waaay back 04.Sorry guys.. Yes, I never hear sirens nor see blinkers na but is it just me or those son of b*#$%es buses, jeeps , and yes even tricycle became moore arrogant than ever.. I was at edsa earlier and this bus infront of me stopped suddenly almost in the middle of the road outside the yellow lane to pick up more passengers while the road ahead was clear., so I honked my horn bigtime! When I had the chance to pass him he gave me the finger! WTH! (sorry just pissed) Siya pang galit! Boils my blood bigtime but I know stooping down to his level will only make matters worst so i just let him be. But can't hide the fact that thats preety darn annoying! Same with jeeps and tricycle.Had my fair shares too na parang nananadya pa sila. Not all but cheeze! I hope something can be done with this.. Just ranting. up to now im still pretty pissed off.

    Wag patulan mga PUV drivers. Please do not forget that we have an Animal Cruelty Act, so you must avoid being too pissed at monkeys.

    Nothing good can be described to Filipino jeepney, bus, and tricycle drivers when it comes to their driving habits kahit saang lugar ka pa dito sa Pilipinas pumunta (not only in EDSA) or kahit siguro nung panahon pa ng lolo't lola ko for the reason that most of them were, are, will be uneducated and illiterate in the near future. I just hope I'm wrong.

    Just last night I was driving in a narrow 2 way street when a tricycle coming from the opposite direction thought it would okay to overtake the jeep in front of him and suddenly popped out in front of me, I slammed on the brakes and when he passed by my window, he stopped and gave me a "May angal ka?!" look. Funny how these drivers think that they are always right just because they are under privileged..no use reasoning with these type of people.

    the only way to keep these people from being too aggressive is to pass safety standards laws on materials used for constructing tricycles, jeepneys and buses.

    kung ang sasakyan nila katulad ng metal na ginagamit sa private cars, they'd think twice on ramming us kasi mahal din papagawa nila.

    look at the taxi's and fx's, medyo mas maingat naman sila ng kaunti vs. these rolling coffins.

    Actually po, galit sa yo yan dahil di mo daw ginamit ang ESP mo para malaman na padating sya.

    Hayz... dami ko na din na-experience na ganyan. Sila na nga may kasalanan sila pa ang galit! Fault talaga kasi yan ng LTO, issue nang issue ng licenses sa di naman karapat-dapat. Dapat higpitan na nila pag-issue nila, dapat seryoso na ang exams at driving tests.

    Pati mga pulis at traffic enforcers natin dapat mag-take ulit ng exams para suriin mabuti kung alam ba nila pinag-gagagawa nila.

    Sorry but I would have to disagree. Mas magagalang sila dati.

    I remember in my elementary days my Dad just bought his Mazda; mapapansin mo noon na iniiwasan nilang matamaan ang mga bagong sasakyan, lalo na makintab pa. Ngayon grabe sila makadikit kahit gaano pa kaganda sasakyan mo. Ang yayabang pa sumingit, tapos pag tinamaan ka automatic na tatanggihan nila at babaligtarin ka pa. Pag sinabi na ng pulis na sya talaga may kasalan saka lang titiklop tapos parang maamong tupa bigla.

    Tapos noon pag binusinahan mo dahil nakaharang sa daan, aandar kaagad sila. Kung hindi man, pag-overtake mo, tataas nila isang kamay nila sabay "Pasensya na ho." I remember this clearly because my Dad was fuming mad and he rolled down the passenger window and was about to curse the driver, pagsabi nun ng driver di na kumibo dad ko tapos umandar na. Elementary din po yun.

    Then again when I was in grade I, I think. We were living at Makiling street in Mandaluyon then. My sister was running around my schoolbus habang pababa ako. Sakto pagsulpot nya sa gilid, may nakatamang jeepney sa kanya. Buti na lang makapit yung break ng jeepney. Takbuhan na mga tao. My dad immediately checked my sister, tapos nakita nya sugat lang sa labi na maliit, nilapitan nya jeepney driver. The jeepney driver immediately emptied his wallet tsaka yung lalagyan nila ng pera na kahoy, offering my dad wads of cash and saying he was sorry again ang again. My dad just smiled and said, "Okay lang, maliit lang namang gasgas." And that was that.

    Mas magalang sila dati. Yung mga anak nila ang problema. Habang dumadami at tumatagal naiipon ang masasamang ugali.

    *praetor:

    Simple, honest apologies are rare today. Those orangutans have it in their thick-skinned, hollow heads that whoever is the more aggressive is the right one.

    I'd dare say that part of the reason why some people out there pack heat inside their cars is because of fear of unwarranted attacks by apes with bribed/fake licenses brandishing tire irons.

    -

    Also, I would've reported that prick in the Camry to the policeman. Just because of that stunt.

    The fact is just having a "wangwang" in your vehicle is already illegal. Any use of it, even how justified in the situation, is an abuse because you are not entitled to its use nor should it be even found in your vehicle.
