about 2 weeks ago, sundo ko yung uncle ko na sa U.S. na natuto magmaneho, sya front passenger ko. derecho kami sa Makati from the airport.... sows... halos himatayin sya sa kaka-sosmaryosep, bakit daw ganon ang mga driver dito sa 'tin, bakit daw walang lane markers kalsada natin, bakit daw sira mga stop light o di kaya naman, dami daw lumulusot sa red light... etc. etc. etc. Samantalang ako relax na relax lang.... sabi ko sa kanya, ganyan talga dito... walang ganyan sa STATES!! :lol: :lol: :D :p

Hahahahaa... :lol: :D

I have a relative from the states who'll be visiting next weekend. I'm the designated driver who has to pick her up from NAIA.
I'm already expecting to hear a crapload of "walang ganyan sa states!" type of remarks from her. ;)

When I was in Saudi mga astig ang driver na pinoy sa company ko and my employer then preferred to hire pinoy driver.

Yun din comment ni jensen button when he visited the Manila last year I think. Unbelievable daw tayo magmaneho. Saludo niya tayo. Coming from an F1 driver, that's a great compliment to the Filipino driving skills. Did you guys try to read the comments after that commentary? Yung mga di makapaniwala at yung mga nagdefend sa atin? Good amusing reading as well!!
