Counterflow Specialists...

Chalk up another win for seatbelts indeed. Looks like more damage came from the barriers too.

galing pala ng Buendia exit yung Vios. diba lagi namang may tambay na guard doon?

Geez, ito pala yun! I remember posting sa badtrip thread about an accident on top of skyway, creating a traffic pile-up.

HTF did the Vios or Altis driver climb up Buendia exit ramp?

Its beyond comprehension, really.

OT:

Skyway towing crew in Crocs? ... Standard uniform? ... Nevermind ..

The license of that Skyway counterflow guy should be revoked permanently!

I wonder what speed the video poster was doing though (also noticed that he was staying on the leftmost lane even when the roads were open... but that's beside the point). Could the accident been avoided had he been driving slower (if he was slower and saw the swerving CUV earlier, he would have probably went behind the Starex he passed instead of ahead of it)? The CUV ahead was barely able to avoid the counterflowing black Altis (hirap pa to tell the direction that idiot car/driver was travelling at, it's dark color doesnt help either).

The mazda is traveling at around 120kph, if he is slower at 80kph he would have time to avoid the altis.
He only had 2 sec to react by the time he saw the altis and the actual impact. At 100kph for the approaching altis and 120kph for the mazda, the 2 sec feels like millisecond.

Yeah, at their combined speeds, it's basically a blink of an eye (so imagine kung nag text while driving ka). I agree though that at a lower speed he would have still been behind the Starex by the time the Altis came into view (although he may or may not have seen it to be counterflowing). Well, hindsight is 20/20 as they say. Lessons we're learned by a lot of drivers (thankfully with no fatalities) and this just adds another notch to the bizarre accidents on the Skyway (buses, SUVs and trucks flying off, men getting run over after being thrown out, etc...).

Ang balita nagsusuicide daw yung nasa Altis, broken heart.

And when you need the MAPSA and other crocs... nowhere to be found eh.

Or he did a U-turn from SSHWAY (at grade) and climbed up Buendia exit. We can only speculate on what that clown actually did, but I hope he gets jail time for it.

They're all trying to be part of the ASBU
