Counterflow Specialists...

[vindiesel]

ako, cool na lang ako. pinapairal ko na lang ang self discipline. which means, i will not do the same. never agitate other drivers by pressing your horn continuously. 1 to 2 beep is enough. gaya ng sinabi ni number001, may mga taong mainit din ang ulo. ingat na lang ako kasi baka mabaril ako.

[knicks1204]

ako takot mag counterflow.. pero pag may nakikita ako nag nag-cause ng traffic... binubusinahan ko.. so far, 4 sa stock na horn ng honda na ang nabili ko.. o kaya pag inis talaga, binabato ko ng piso.. or kumpol ng 25 cents..

thanks mikey, lesson learned=) pero PSG are what really irates me pati ata di naman importante na lakad they use their alalays with their wang wang, dapat ayusin nila ang daan, thats where should our money go, not in their pockets

OT: speaking oh honking sa san francisco, nun nag honk yun driver ng service namin nagalit yun binusinahan niya, its not that appropriate ata to honk sa kanila, ako i honk crazy jaywalkers, nagbebenta ng kung anu anu sa daan, beggar din nakakainis how wil i know if they are not from a syndicate kaya i give remaining food rather than money

In North America (US and Canada, at least), it is considered rude to indiscriminately honk the horn. But in New York City (Manhattan), its almost like Manila there, with mostly the taxi and limo drivers honking at each other and other vehicles.

Speaking of beggars in Manila, I try avoiding giving to them since they belong to a syndicate esp. the old women. This happened in Adriatico cor. Quirino (beside Victoria Court and Manila Zoo), a driver gives some money to a begging old lady then suddenly all of her "colleagues" suddenly gather around the vehicle. In another separate incident, I see the same old lady along with her "colleagues" hanging out inside a passenger jeepney after a whole day of "work".

I just tailgate once I see these "specialists" from my side mirrors. I usually do this when I see that there's another car apporaching towards the specialist. hehe

isang beses pa lang ako nakapag counterflow pag traffic sa buong buhay ko. hehehe.

pag ako naman ung kasalubong nung nag counterflow tapos hindi naman ako nagmamadali todo tutok ako sa harapan niya. tutukan talaga para hindi siya makaabante o kahit man lang makaliko. hehehe umatras siya! hehehe

ive never counterflowed and barring a life-threatening incident, i have no intention to.
di kasi pwede sakin yang excuse na "nagmamadali". kung ganon lahat naman ng nasa daan nagmamadali a.

i have a personal gripe with counterflowing vehicles. http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showt...erflowing+jeep

[niky]

I counterflow only when my turn is near and the traffic enforcer is signalling me to do so, but at no other times. Those times, though, nag-re-react ang wife ko... "Akala ko galit ka sa counterflow?" / "Eh, dear, sinesenyales ako ng enforcer, eh!". :lol:

I just love killing counterflow and "singit" lanes. Just the other night, I came into a queue that was nice and orderly, albeit twenty cars long. Seeing the empty lane beside me, I left two car lengths to the car in front of me. Sure enough, one jeepney came thundering along the empty lane, looking to do a last minute "singit"... just a slight nudge of the wheel, and I was on the tail of the car in front of me, straddling the queue and the emergency lane, while, simultaneously, the drivers behind me, on cue, bunched up on my tail. Ayun, naghintay nalang siya.

But I'm not solely a blocker. Just minutes before that I had pulled over to let an emergency vehicle pass, even if it meant losing my place in traffic.

ako pag may nakita ako nagcounterflow sa harap ko, what i do is parang i head on ko siya pero iiwas din ako, just to remind them na mali ginagawa nila

My uncle confiscated the license of a 'counterflow specialist'. Pinatubos niya sa presinto.

Of course, you do this when you are well armed and well trained.

[Bogeyman]

I encounter these counterflow specialists regularly, especially sa Sumulong Highway papuntang Masinag. Madami na rin akong hindi pinasingit dun.

Same goes when a vehicle gets lost and finds itself coming head-on into my lane. Flash lang ako ng headlights, balik siya sa lane niya. The latest was two weeks ago when we were going up Sumulong Highway. It was night, and this Ford Lynx probably got impatient with the rest of the traffic and decided to counterflow downhill into my lane. Eh paakyat kami, the Lynx instantly popped in front of us. I immediately flashed my high beams while braking, then the Lynx decided to get back in lane, nataranta pa siya while doing so.

Akala niya siguro tatabi ako para sa kanya. No frickin' way.

I counterflow only when my turn is near and the traffic enforcer is signalling me to do so, but at no other times.

yep, pag sinesenyasan ka na nang mmda or hagad na pwede dapat nga. minsan naman ginagawa talaga para mapabilis ang daloy nang trapiko.
