    cools lang jasprit!
    Just remember, driving isn't a competition. You gain nothing (other than two seconds and a lot of blood pressure) from competing with other drivers on the road.

    Lane-splitting bikers? Come on through... basta kasya ha.

    Jeeps? Sige na nga. I'll have 2 gazillion more chances to overtake you anyway.

    Buses? You'd be stuck in your congested lanes later.

    Hazard-whores? Baka legit, sige na nga.

    Wang-wangeros? I suggest a helicopter, but go ahead anyway.

    Then again, most of the time I'd be cutting through the traffic in one of those big-ass Rotems.

    pinabasa to ko sa isang instructor taga Honda Riding School at napagusapan tuloy nila ang situwasyon ngayong maraming nakamotor dito na sa Pinas

    unanimous sila- mali yung diskarteng singit na lang ng basta basta

    sa feedback ng mga riders nila maigi pa yung na senyas o sumenyas ng intensyon mo para malinaw na humihingi ka ng kaunting palugid para padaanin

    napansin ko din yung mga taga Mad Dog Rider's club na malapit sa opisina- pag masikip ang daan naka pwesto ng maayos at alam kung saan sila puwedeng lumusot ng maayos

    puwede naman palang pag aralan at pagsanayan

    Sa almost 5 years na pagmomotor ko never nangyari sakin ito at never ako nakaencounter ng ganitong sitwasyon. Ang karamihan sa naexperience kong ayaw magpasingit ay mga kapwa motor. hehehe!

    it happens sometimes, nakagitgit tayo ng ibang driver, di natin sinadya, or baka sadyang ganun talaga tayo magdrive, tapos, magretaliate siya sa atin kasi iisipin na sinadya at magugulat tayo at magreact.

    sometimes, din, nagmamadali tayo, the rest of the world, parang ayaw lumakad sa daan. other times, tayo naman ang daydreaming habang nagdadrive, e nasa gitna pala tayo ng mga nagtatakbuhang kabayo.

    its very difficult to drive the streets of metromanila. if the govt can just stop jeepneys from loading and unloading before and after a stoplight, milagro na yun at masolve siguro kasama kalahati ng problema ng pinas

    from experience, no offense to you, i dont like motorcycle drivers. sabi nga sa quote sa itaas, bikes find it easier to weave in and out, pero actually, theyre cutting into other vehicles kasi nga maliit ang bike. in fact, siguro less than 10% ng bikes ang nagsisignal paglumulusot, and they pass both on the left and on the right. for cars, the rule is no passing on the right, pero seemingly, bikes dont follow this rule, or one way road signs, and i dont know kung may ganoong exception nga sa traffic laws.

    Most drivers naman sa atin don't follow the smaller, less significant rules like no passing on the right, giving right of way, not crossing between lanes (for example, pag traffic masyado, 3 lanes can occupy 4 cars across), etc.

    Actually here in the US, the motorbikes get in between the cars to move to the front of the pack, but, they mostly drive forward and not get in between cars na sumisingit. Given there is enough space between cars, it's also not a problem. However I also see them falling in line, queueing properly even, on occasion, and nobody cuts the vehicle behind those who queue para lang makasingit. In fact it's common here to see 5 cars in one lane on a stop light, kahit 2 lane highway siya or even 3. Yung mga sumisingit, they are frowned upon, at talagang nakakahiya dahil dito people obey the rules talaga (well, mostly). Of course di naman maiiwasan yung law breakers, pero kung within tolerable limits, ok lang naman. Thing is dyan kasi, people often break the law, kaya others think it is OK, when in fact, it isn't. Really.

    idol, what i do is i just stick to my lane. that way mas malaki ang chances na wala kang mababangga or whatsoever. nakakainis sometimes yung mga motorcycle riders na kasalubong, they eat up almost half of the lane that i am using para lang umovertake at makauna sa traffic. i don't know if i'm correct or not, but i do not budge from where i am, and if i do budge, konti lang. i force them to respect other motorists also by going back to their lanes.

    most cagers i know naiinis sa mga bikers, and they tend to generalize na pag nakakita sila ng bikers nabubwisit agad kahit wala pa siyang ginagawa. This is all too common on our roads nowadays lalu na yung mga small displacement bikers(50cc -150cc).Yung mga big bikers pa ang mas may disiplina. Mga small bikers mostly ang singit boys..Now opinion ko lang ito ha pero most (not all)small bikers are from the income groups of c,d,e..mura na kasi mga bikes ngayon kaya lower income people can afford to buy one. and guess what?mga drivers ng public fx, taxi, jeeps, buses and tricycles which majority have low if not no education,barumbado magmaneho and pasingit singit...give them a bike and boom!!chaos on the streets.

    so you are saying now that people with low income and those who are not educted enough or has no eduction at all are the ones most likely to create "chaos" on the streets? i beg to disagree with you.

    its not a question of financial status here. its those who lacks self disipline that are to be blamed, caged drivers or bikers altogether.

    No situation, except for dire emergency, could justify "singit". Remember, there's a big difference with "overtaking" and "singit". If both lanes are occupied, you can't just go and squeeze yourself in between. That's just both plain wrong and stupid.

    Madalas, some bikers would pile up in front pag red yun light, and this just gets the better of me. Why? kasi pupunta sa harapn pero ang bagal naman umarangkada. I find this again, both ridiculous and stupid. Kaya hindi din ako nagpapasingit.

    And just because every other guy do it, doesn't give you the right or excuse to do it yourself. Respect lang sa kapwa driver. If you want to be safe on the road when on 2 wheels, then think as if you are driving a 4 wheel vehicle. You need space and so does everyone else. Pag sumingit ka, you are invading his are space and you can't fault him since you're bringing danger to yourself.

    And before you ask, yes, I do drive a big bike and a car, and hindi ako sumisingit. nag o-over take, yes, but hindi singit.

    kainis nga yan lalo na pag 2 or 3 lanes lang yung road. all the motorbikes sumingit papuntang harapan pag red yung stoplight tapos pag nag go, they hold back traffic dahil ang bagal mag accelerate.

    about the Mad Dog Rider's Club alam ko may kwento si sir boybi tungkol sa kanila.... eto yata yun singit ng singit papunta tagaytay yata at may tinadyakan pa na delivery boy? sir boybi tama po ba? it just shows na hindi sa ride ang diperensya kundi sa gumagamit...

    ang observation ko lang talaga dun sa mga singit ng singit eh yun mga kabataang riders, i guess with age comes wisdom lalo na sa driving...

    I second this. BUT, maturity is not equal to age. Minsan mas mature pa yung 18 years old na teenager kesa sa 25 years old na young adult. Although mas masaraming teen drivers ang agresibo sa daan,very egoistic at mahilig sa karera. In short, immature drivers.

Don't know what's his problem????
