Afaik in the Tagkawayan video you can pass through a solid/broken line if the broken line is on your side IF the way is clear.

When in doubt I'll just wait for the next straight.

yung l300, ang bagal bumalik sa lane nya ulit pagkatapos mag overtake. Mga dalwang sasakyan na yung gap nasa gitna pa din kahit kita na na may kasalubong

Yung van naman pinilit

Don't expect the L300 van to handle like a car. It does not even have that much power to speak of to make a quick pass.

The van may not have seen the L300 when it was starting to pass. When he was already passing, he was in for a big surprise. He could have braked hard and slowed down.

Tumitingin sa kanan nya yung driver ng kabanggaan ng L3 para bumawi pakanan, nalingat split second lang kaya hindi na nya naiwas, sa POV nya truck lang kasalubong.

Ganyan gusto gawin nung matalinong nakaisip sa mmda. Ang 2 lanes gagawing 3.

Around 2.5m ang lapad ng bus. Gusto nilang gawing 2.8m ang lanes. So may ~0.15m naman daw yung bus on each side. 😂

my rule number one:
never overtake at a curve, whichever direction you are in.
you do not know what's hiding in front of you.

in standstill traffic, we can whip out the checker board and challenge the adjacent car to a game.

Agree in most cases doc. But there are also some curves that are so wide and the terrain clear that you can clearly see hundreds of meters ahead and overtaking is possible when it is clear.

In the video clearly the line of sight was obstructed by the trees so those guys were really just rolling the dice.

It is common for normal drivers to slow down when approaching a curve or a corner. The thinking yet aggressive driver will capitalise on this to pounce on the slow driver and take the chance to pass right before making that turn on the corner.

As Randy Pobst would say, you need to have the power, skill, timing, and guts to execute a clean pass.
