Don't you just love those people who park stupidly?

[patmobile]

sinita ako nito ng subic TO. gumilid ako malapit sa kanya para magtanong ng direction, sabay hazard. masama tingin sa akin at di ako sinasagot. nung nilakasan ko boses ko para magtanong, saka nagsabi, "paki patay yung hazard... bawal yan!", sabi ko, magtatanong lang kasi ako.. para di ako i-tailgate. mali daw yun, pang-emergency cases lang dapat. so, pinatay ko hazard, saka nya ako sinagot. kaya siguro ang tagal tumingin, baka nag-iisip kung titicketan ako o hindi.

ano ba ang emergency cases? hahaha ung emergency kase sa ibang tao, hinde emergency sa iba.. like dyan sa subic.Paano kung sa tingin ko emergency, tapos ung TO tingin nya hinde, eh di huli na!

OT:
May illegal use of hazard ba na violation?

[trackers888]

Hazard light na pala topic dito

Regarding Subic TO, iba ang batas na pinapairal duon kaya wag ka na magtaka. At least sinabi nya kung anu ang tamang pag gamit ng HL ayon sa training nila. Got this info and seems may sense ang sinasabi nya, batas US parin gamit nila sa loob ng Subic

Eto iba iba rin ang alam nila about HL

hmm.. no general rule? isn't falling in line a general rule?

ang mali nya ay inunahan ang ibang kotse (1 with flashing hazard lights, two who were waiting in line). sumingit kumbaga.

ang ugat ng lahat neto ay ang flashing hazard light. maraming mga motorista ang ginagamit ang hazard lights para sa kani-kanilang mga rason. hindi mo na talaga alam kung alin ang talagang emergency or nasiraan talaga ang sasakyan. meron pa ako nakatabi last week sa nlex shell station, magrereverse paalis ng parking slot ay i-on pa ang hazard lights.

sigurado ako kung gagawa ako ng listahan kung ano ang naiintindihan na paggamit ng flashing headlights, magiging mahaba eto.

[SIZE="4"]Bakit mayron bang LINE sa parking area? Kung mayron talagang LINE eh kailangan talagang pumila...KASO wala eh...Gaya ng sample ko kanina, hindi ko kasi talaga gets yung sample kanina eh, kung sakaling may nakahazard at nag-aabang ng lalabas tapos nag-overtake ka sa kanya kasi hindi naman tayong pwedeng ma-stuck up na lang sa likod niya, tapos pag lampas mo sa kanya eh saktong lalabas yung kotse sa may bandang harapan mo,,,sabihin na natin na 5 cars away dun sa naka-hazard,,,hahayaan mo pa bang pumasok yung naka-hazard?

*sgt_taga: senxa ka na sa font ko...it's just my style...hindi naman sila na CAPS eh...[/SIZE]

Point ko lang ah. Yung ibang nakapilang kotse ay hindi sila nakapila para mag park kasi dami pang parking slots. Nakapila sila dahil hindi na sila mkaatras or makaabante dahil nakasara sa isang lane yung naka hazard light na kotse.

[Leviticus2]

Haha. Leviticus, what's your point ? To use hazard lights on emergency cases only ? Then you're wrong.

People use their hazard lights when they back up. Or when they're waiting for someone. Or yet, when closing to a stop.

Why ? Cause its an added safety. Imagine if hindi mapansin yung reverse lights mo habang umaatras ka ng dahan dahan. Then, there's a possibility na mabunggo ka. While kapag naka hazard ka, sa dami ng ilaw nun. 2 for the rear, 2 for the cheek lights & 2 for the headlights then it's close to impossible na hindi ka mapansin unless tanga lang talaga yung nasa likod mo.

Second, para hindi ka i-tail gate kapag pahinto ka na or papark ka na. I particularly hate those people who don't turn their hazards on when parking on a street. Yung tipong sinusundan mo siya sa traffic then when the traffic moves eh hindi siya gagalaw kasi naka-park pala siya dun sa spot niya. I either honk on them, cause they're stupid. Or flash my lights on them, cause then again they're stupid.

Hazard lights are there to serve as a " warning " for whatever you'll do. If nakahinto ka sa traffic w/ your hazard lights on ( for whatever reason ) then iiwasan ka na ng tao. Less chances na makaencounter ka ng horn happy people.

Ako I turn my hazard lights on these following cases ...

1. When I'm backing up ( pag magpark ako )
2. When I'm about to stop sa gilid ( pero kasabay ko traffic para di nila ako i-tailgate )
3. When I'm just waiting for someone ( like sa GH, so that guards wont think na naka park ako dun )
4. For emergency purposes ( pag nagmamadali talaga ako kasi may nangyari na kung ano )

OT na tayo ha. maybe we need to move this into a separate thread? 1 page pa lang ang lumagpas, dami na interpretation ng paggamit ng hazard light.

simply put, whenever you use your hazard lights for reasons other than in an actual emergency, you are disabling your vehicle's signal lights-- you can't indicate or signal to other motorists if you are going left or right.

your #1 and #2 reasons are prime examples, lalo ang #2. When you are about to stop sa gilid, you NEED to use your turn signal to indicate to other motorists. kung ikaw ay nasa harapan ko in traffic and nakita kita nag-hazard lights, ang unang papasok sa isip ko ay nasiraan ka. the first instance that I see a space between traffic that I can pass you, I'll take it whether it's to your left or to your right.

when you're backing up, isn't it more defensive to signal to motorists behind you which direction you are backing up to? kaya ka nga may "backing up" lights precisely to signal to other motorists that you are going in reverse.

using hazard lights does not equate instant parking in a no parking zone or in a place where you will become an obstruction to other motorists. madalas eto ang nakikita ko sa harap ng pwesto namin: binabarahan ang driveway tapos irarason na "naka-hazard ako". so what kung nakahazard ka? all the more reason to move your vehicle to another place since you/your vehicle should not be there. actually, using your hazard lights for this reason (waiting for someone) is inconsiderate of other motorists-- and bad etiquette.

and finally, as stated by other posters, what you consider as an emergency will not necessarily be considered as an emergency by others.

addendum: "it's for added safety"-- kung ganun, bakit hindi constant naka-on ang hazard lights mo? I've heard of always on headlights (for added visibility/safety) but I have never heard of always on hazard lights.

Point ko lang ah. Yung ibang nakapilang kotse ay hindi sila nakapila para mag park kasi dami pang parking slots. Nakapila sila dahil hindi na sila mkaatras or makaabante dahil nakasara sa isang lane yung naka hazard light na kotse.

uhm... di ba yung nakahazrd light na kotse ay papasok ng parking slot? so the two other cars na nakapila are there para magpark. hinihintay lang nila na makaparada ang nasa harapan nila. malay natin, maspreferred ng nakahazard ang slot na babakantehan ng ibang sasakyan kaya inisip nya hintayin.

bakit hindi ka na lang nakipila?

anyway, two in a row na OT post ako. I apologize for this, tigil na ako sa OT that is not related to this thread title.

Hindi naman siguro ako tanga na paparada sa gitna diba ? Natural pag paparada ka nasa leftmost or rightmost side ka na. It will be pretty stupid to put your righty or lefty signal light on kung wala ka na kakananan or kakaliwaan.

Natural gagamit ako ng signal light pag tatabi ako. Pero pag hihinto na ako for whatever reason, tapos nasa pinaka-gilid ako, maghazard ako para iwasan na ako ng tao.

when you're backing up, isn't it more defensive to signal to motorists behind you which direction you are backing up to? kaya ka nga may "backing up" lights precisely to signal to other motorists that you are going in reverse.

Siguro nasa states ka ? Or baguhan ka magdrive ? Aren't you aware that FILIPINO drivers use their hazard lights when backing up ? Hindi ka pa ba sanay dun ? Mas mabubunggo ka if you back up, with your left or right signal light is on. Mas nakakalito.

using hazard lights does not equate instant parking in a no parking zone or in a place where you will become an obstruction to other motorists.

Well, kung bobo ka nga talaga paparada ka sa no parking zone. What I said was, I turn my hazard lights on kung naka-park ako FOR A WHILE sa isang tabi so that the guards wont suspect na walang tao sa loob ng kotse.

Eto tanong ko, if you're gonna pick up your girl sa GH tapos sasabihin niya " hey, wait for me in front of the theater mall for 2 mins. CR lang ako ", magpapark ka pa ba sa carpark ? Natural hindi unless you're stupid enough to waste your 35 pesos. Magiintay ka lang sa gilid at MAGHAHAZARD.

madalas eto ang nakikita ko sa harap ng pwesto namin: binabarahan ang driveway tapos irarason na "naka-hazard ako". so what kung nakahazard ka? all the more reason to move your vehicle to another place since you/your vehicle should not be there. actually, using your hazard lights for this reason (waiting for someone) is inconsiderate of other motorists-- and bad etiquette.

Why can't you tell the driver to simply move away cause lalabas ka ? Is that HARD ? Bad etiquette yan kung iiwan niya kotse niya sa harap ng bahay mo. Pero hindi. Andyan lang siya, sa loob ng kotse niya, waiting for someone. I'm sure kapag pinalayas mo siya dun aalis naman siya.

addendum: "it's for added safety"-- kung ganun, bakit hindi constant naka-on ang hazard lights mo? I've heard of always on headlights (for added visibility/safety) but I have never heard of always on hazard lights.

Hello. Bobo ka ba. You take things literally. You need to read between the lines. You need to understand things DEEPER.

Syempre safety yun if you're backing up since you don't have full visibility pag paatras ka compared to when you're moving forward.

Safety yun pag nakapark ka, especially at night for the people to see you that you're parked there for whatever f*cking reason. Para maiwasan ka na rin.

Of course you wont turn your hazard lights on when you're moving " normally ", kasi you have full control of what's happening. Pwede mo iwasan 'to, pwede ka kumabig dito. Maganda ang visibility mo sa mga bagay bagay. Unlike pag paatras ka, may ulo ng tao sa likod. May upuan. Etc. etc.

May side mirror ba sa trunk ng kotse mo para makalkula mo lahat pag paatras ka ? Syempre wala diba. Kaya you turn your hazard lights on to warn people that you're backing up. Kasi minsan baka hindi nila mapansin reverse lights mo.

Anyways, back to topic. I just can't help answering posts of people that can't FULLY understand what you really meant. Parang lahat kailangan i-explain.

[dale323]

*renzo, pademanda ka na rin. tapos hihingan ka na rin ng statistics regarding sa dami ng tao na gumagamit ng hazard sa parking.

Sorry po OT

Sa SBMA ata bawal kapag bukas ang hazard. Nung nag-convoy kami sa loob ng SBMA headlights on lang kahit may escort na.
