color coding.. hassle???

[XTO]

naku, why discriminate? if they are undisciplined, strict implementation of laws should be enforced. Besides, public transport have higher occupancy per car space, read: they carry more passengers at given vehicle space therefore, more space efficient for the road. imagine meron lahat sari sariling sasakyan ang mga public commuters, di ba baka di na umandar mga sasakyan sa kalsada?

The "color coding" scheme helps reduce vehicle volume, but I think restructuring the whole public transportation system in our country will truly help in solving the traffic problem.

I can just imagine if we have a public transport system same as in Hong Kong or Singapore, more people will be encouraged to commute. If commuting is very convenient and safe, a lot of people driving may consider taking the bus or train instead of driving their cars since they can do away with parking hassles, fees, stress and costs of fuel. In this way, I believe the volume of vehicles will be further reduced.

There are also a lot of things on the road to fix - stoplight timing, damaged roads, schemes, etc. In registration and licensing - stricter policies (e.g. no garage, no permit to buy a car), stricter screening and harder tests for applicants, etc.

But still, all boils down to DISCIPLINE. Every single one of us should have this.

True, everyone... Including the commuters. Dapat din may fine sa mga taong kung saan saan sumasakay at bumababa. Parang problema ng itlog at manok yan e, kung saan saan humihinto yung mga PUV kasi kung saan saan din pumapara yung mga tao. Kung hindi nila paparahan, may ibang makakakuha ng pasahero. Yung mga commuters naman since alam nila na hihinto yung PUV kahit saan, taking advantage naman. So para ayos pareho na lang may fine. Sarap ng buhay ng taga huli nyan, dami makokotongan.
Habang tumatagal, hindi lang nagiging less effective yung color coding scheme, nagiging cause pa ito ng paglala ng paninikip ng kalsada. E kasi mga tao para makaiwas sa coding bibili ng additional car kahit walang garahe. Tapos itatambak sa gilid ng kalsada. Dito lang sa amin nagsisikipan na yung mga kalsada sa dami ng mga naka tambak na sasakyan.
