[scharnhorst]

now, maybe it's time for bus companies to keep a close watch on their OWN drivers?

Maraming kaskaserong bus drivers di lang sa Jayross. At least Jayross got a taste of how wreckless some of their drivers are, though tragically.

Sa ganito paulit ulit na problema sa mga bus drivers. Meron kaya device para hindi lumagpas ng 60kph yung bus?

I'm not surprise anymore of the fatal accident since this bus company garage is near my place. There are more fatal accidents not being reported on news but was happening almost few kilometers along Quirino Highway near their garage. Same story.....the bus driver would fled (SOP na yata ng mga bus driver yan)

Jason was a tsikot forumer killed when his motorcyle was over run by a Jayross bus.

LTFRB Alberto Suansing is pushing for the abolition of Boundary/Commission payout system but these bus companies are hard headed.

Just wish that a hard sanction should be impose to this bus company.

The bus company that I hate the most is ... NEWMAN GOLDLINER.

Grabe sila magpatakbo. Reckless, super. Kabig dito, cut doon.

Anyways, regarding the topic. Proper discipline is lacking in most bus drivers, especially kung ordinary lang.

Recently nga, when I was driving in SLEX at 125 - 130kph, Gordon's bus was at my side then biglang nag left siya going to my direction ! Muntik niya na ako mahagip, buti nalang eh busina ako ng busina at narinig naman nung driver.

Ewan ko ha. It seems that having super uber disciplined and careful bus drivers in each and every bus company is hopeless. :sigh:

[scharnhorst]

then again, nameless employees yung natodas nung lintek na bus driver na yan.

kaya walang mangyayari.

dapat siguro anak ng may ari or something.

Since reckless a-hole bus drivers na ang pinag-uusapan.. Post ko na rin yung plate number ng uber reckless red bus dito (Mariano transport co. yata).. Kagabi lang ito! Light traffic northbound EDSA Q.Ave

TXY 681

Watch out for this prick. Muntik na akong mahagip niyan sa edsa, cruising speed lang ako (50-60kph) he was fast approaching from my rear papuntang kanan ko, obviously swerving, biglang kabig ako ng konti sa kaliwa, konti lang kasi may approaching na kotse rin sa kaliwa ko.. My guess is he's running at more or less 100kph.. Kung tinamaan ako nun karambola na kami nung kotseng nasa kaliwa ko

BTT:
LTFRB should really do something about this.. Minsan nakakawalang gana na gobyerno walang magawa gawa.. I remembered sa HK lahat ng drivers na nakita ko mapa taxi, bus, private.. DISIPLINADO. Napakatahimik ng kalsada dahil very rare ka lang makakarinig ng busina. Sana SANA talaga maging ganoon din dito.

whatever happened to the plan of activating the speed limiter sa buses... Talk of the town ito last year nung susnod-sunod ang accidents sa EDSA involving PUBs. as usual, ningas-cogon!

[BLUR-RT]

dapat nga may speed limiter sa mga PUV

malabo naman ata to for provincial buses... pero for city buses, kelangan nga ito. but then naovertake na ako ng bus habang 140 ang takbo ko

sa city buses dapat ata walang power steering para hindi sila nakakapag swerve.

bus drivers don't need to be angels on the road, but can't they be less of *ssholes too? I bet without the boundary system ungas parin mga bus drivers.

[innoBOB[09JmtG]]

bus driver's are even trained to kill

so driving wrecklessly is just a past time to them

[a3n3as]

na karma lang sila

[Monseratto]

The Jayross driver didn't even care that his family was aboard that bus. The driver's kids will be traumatize cuz nakita nila na walang hiya at duwag ang tatay nila.

Human nature naman kasi yun. Power corrupts. Kung malaki ka, mambabaraso ka. Kung mabilis ka tulad ng motor, singit ka ng singit. Wala kasing nanghuhuli. At certain periods of time during the day marami pang masyadong bus kumpara sa dami ng pasahero.

The only way we can make bus drivers disciplined under the current setup is to make it lucrative for traffic & LTFRB authorities to go after reckless drivers.

Tutal sa pera lang naman sila interesado, doing their job is just secondary.

hopefully mabawasan na ang bus sa edsa sana magwork ung lrt-mrt..

[gongrhey]

sabi nga nung taxi driver na nasakyan ko wala na daw tatalo sa mga bus driver pagdating sa gulangan sa kalsada. kung magkarera ang mga yan sa commonwealth to regalado hanggang SM Fairview, iwas ka na lang at kawawa ka. pag naka-ulo na palampasin mo na... siguro maganda kung sabayin yung speed limiter at alisin yung boundary system.
