Corrupt(?) Pasig TE

[beni23]

To clarify "swerving":

Swerving is when you cross the solid white line.

I'm sure you've noticed that about 50m before intersections, the lane markings change from broken to solid lines. That means you are no longer allowed to change lanes, turn signals on or not. If you're turning right, then you're supposed to have queued up on the right lane at least 50m before the intersection itself. Turning in from the middle lane shouldn't be acceptable.

There's a lot of ignorance on the road here, not just on the enforcer's side but on many drivers' as well.

Honestly, hindi ko alam yang mga yan. Kung kakanan ako pupunta ako sa pinaka-kanan na lane, pag kakaliwa ako pupunta ako sa pinaka-left na lane, except siyempre sa edsa yellow lane alam ko yung broken lines.

Mga hindi alam pumila ginagawa to (not referring to the ts na sinasabi naman niyang walang sasakyan sa kanan niya when he did the turn) from middle lane bigla na lang kakanan o kakaliwa. Lalo na sa mga u-turn slots, usually hindi ako nagbibigay sa mga ugok na yan.

hindi po ba ang "swerving" eh ung biglaang pag liko ng walang warning at senyales? ang pagkakaalam ko din eh wala namang violation na swerving...hehe!

nangyari na din sa akin to. kung naghuhuli sa yo pasig enforcer lagpas ng meralco ave.. ang isa pang pedeng ibutas mo sa naghuhuli ay jurisdiction. they dont have right to flag you down sa mandaluyong. tsaka bagitin mo lng ung mayor ng pasig tutupi ng mga yan.

traffic enforcers kasi sa atin hindi rin alam ang batas trapiko, walang standards na kailangang ipasa. kaya mali-mali ang huli at mga hinuhuli lang nila ay yung may chance silang mangkotong. Mas maraming lantarang traffic violation na kitang kita ng mga ugok na ito pero wala naman silang ginagawa kaya grabe traffic sa atin.

Example:
1) Bumabaybay sa gitna ng lane separators, laging may ganito sa EDSA.
2) Parang ahas sa daan, palipat lipat ng lane, is reckless driving. Sa US bubuntutan ka na ng unmarked highway patrol kapag ganyan ka mag-drive at kapag tuloy pa rin yung driver in a few minutes $250 na ticket na.
3) Nagpapalit ng lane sa heavy traffic ng sapilitan, yung di pa nagbibigay sa kabilang lane isusuksok biglaan yung sasakyan niya. Reckless driving rin ito.
4) Not giving way to pedestrians on pedestrian lanes.
5) Driving through a red light, yung mga PUB (especially tricycle) ang major violator nito. Sa Kalayaan road araw-araw tumatawid itong mga tricycle during a red light.
6) Driving with no lights at night. Main culprit tricycles and jeepney, pero meron din mga private vehicles na gumagawa nito.
7) Driving with a busted tail lamp. Di mo malaman kung nagprepreno.
8) Slow vehicles driving on the fast lane.

to name a few. Ito di nila hihuhuli, pero yung mga non-violation swerving pinagiinteresan nilang huliin kasi di sila maalam sa traffic law.

dapat monthly pinagtetest ang mga traffic enforcer sa LTO at yung nakaka 100% sa exam lang yung binibigyan ng karapatang magticket. At yung mga di nanghuhuli ng violators dapat kinakasuha ng DILG ng dereliction of duty.

THIS! ang nangyayari, nagiging collector nalang ang mga nagTE, hindi na nageenforce ng traffic. actually oo, traffic enforcers sila, ineENFORCE nila ang HEAVY TRAFFIC. tulad ng coding, nalutas ba ang problema sa coding? hindi. hinuhuli nila mga imbentong violation imbis na hulihin ang mga lumalabag talaga. kung hinuli nila mga puvs(dahil sila halos lumalabag sa sobrang daming batas trapiko) edi sana walang traffic

kasama yata sa traffic signs yung mga painted signs on the road, which ang hirap makita or mapansin especially kung bumper-to-bumper like when crossing an intersection or coming from a stop light or at night. ang usual sinasabi ng mga TE eh swerving, which wala namang violation na ganon

yung DTS (disregard of traffic sign) eh violation code 003 pag MMDA (The Official Website of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority) at equivalent sa code 154 sa Makati (disregard lane markings, Makati Traffice Enforcers (MAPSA) Violations List)

it's abuso time!
wala ng puwedeng mang-api sa mga yan kasi may bayani na silang nasampal.

Guys, just whip out a video camera. It works all the time specially if 'kotong para'. Ive experienced the same incident, where i was flagged down by changing to a lane, near where TE's tambay, but I didnt stop, didnt sped away just drove normally. One of them followed me to the next stop light. Whipped out my digi cam and rolled down the window. The moment he saw the camera pointed at him, bumait sya.

Bringing a camera and recording arguments in any situation is a big help. You can use the record againts them. Deters anyone being recorded to do something bad or say something wrong.

^ basta sa maliwanag na lugar or daytime. mahirap pag sa secluded place gawin, baka ma-salvage pa

[confused shoes]

Pasingit na rin mga goons.

Papunta kasi ako sa PSE Center sa may San Miguel Ave. Nakakapag-alala ang post ni TS. Hindi ako sanay sa area na yan baka masabat ako ng Pasig TE(corrupt?).

Kung manggagaling ako ng ESDA from Makati, ano ang best na route? Kung mag refer ako sa Google map, it looks Pioneer is okay pero paano tumawid sa Shaw papuntang San Miguel Ave?

from pioneer before reaching shaw intersection turn left at unilab going to edsa crossing; next intersection after end of unilab compound turn right; go straight, cross shaw blvd all the way to san miguel ave, turn right (where the old medical city block on your left), turn left then turn right until you see PSE bldg main entrance on your right. the dreaded intersections near megamall and san mig bldg are now far behind you..

[confused shoes]

Thanks bro, pag naman tutumbukin ko ang Julia Vargas from EDSA, then turn left ako to San Mig, pwede bang mag left turn to PSE from San Mig?

[tagalnasaabroad]

I doubt if you can turn right from edsa to J Vargas..otherwise you cannot go straight to san mig intersection..iikot ka sa megamall then turn left at Lourdes School where you'll end up wtih my previous directions..buti pa take shaw from edsa crossings then turn left sa san mig..again ending up with my previous suggestion..

You can turn right to J. Vargas/Megamall coming from EDSA as long as you're coming from the EDSA-Shaw ibabaw and are not cutting in from the underpass.

When i go to PSE Center from the Makati area, i usually take Pioneer then left on Shaw then right on Escriva drive (or whatever that road is that goes behind UA&P) and straight to PSE.

His name is TE Delos Santos, Van Nikko. Dep.903

I just got apprehended by the same TE yesterday (Sept. 30) corner of meralco and ortigas. same modus, same reasons. Were you able to claim your license back from the Pasig City Hall? My fear is that he might be a bogus TE and doesn't really turn over confiscated licenses to the office.

Not yet, cause I don;t have money I'm just a poor student. I plan to pay within the week.

I was also waiting because I have a cousin who was able to get something done about her complaint about a Pasay TE. She pointed me towards Yves Gonzalez and I tweeted him about the issue and he said he would forward my complaint to OCAI and Pasig TPMO, though it looks like my complaint won't be acknowledged.

Anyway, how much is the fine? and how much is the penalty for late pay? Is it too late to contest and do people really have a chance at a successful contest?

Also, according to the LTO sms service, my license has no apprehensions.. so, should that factor into all of this or not because the enforcer who got my license is a Pasig TE?

I doubt if a complaint would really be acknowledged. It's not really as serious as kotong.

I also have no idea about the fine and penalties. I cannot find information about the rates in Pasig.

Is there a way for us to check if our license was already turned over to their TPMO? What I don't like is coming over to their office only to find out that the license is still not there. That's too much of a hassle for me. If that is the case, then this is probably a corrupt TE and only then can a valid complaint be made.

I got my license today. Wasn't penalized for being late two weeks. Fine is 500.

So, yeah, it will most likely be there. Just not sure how soon though.

Thanks for the info. Will just probably get it next week.

How efficient are they over there? Do I need to spend a whole day or going there in the afternoon would be fine? Thanks again in advance!
