    3. Ang mga pedestrian, di marunong magpahalaga sa buhay.

    ~~~~

    Saw a dead pedestrian the other day, the cause hit and run. The ironic thing was he was around 5 steps away from the sign that says. "Huwag Tumawid, Nakamamatay"

    In other countries if you're the erring party the courts will not rule in your favor, that's why people take care in crossing the street.

    Doon sa may ortigas, near the new Medical City, there's a nice clean pedestrian overpass. The good thing about that overpass is that it's nicely situated in front of the hospital, and hear the unofficial, favorite stopping areas for jeepneys.

    Yet, people still want to cross the street, and scale up the island, sometimes trampling and killing the plants in the process. The energy they spent in dodging cars, climbing the island and trampling on the plants could have been spent on liesurely walking up the stairs and crossing the road safely.

    Oh yeah... and they seem to have a knack for going under the overpass.

    I think the best thing to do is to REMOVE the islands and replace them with water or mud-filled gutters. That way, unless you're a long jump athlete, you won't be able to jaywalk without getting wet and dirty. Mapipilitan na rin gumamit ng overpass.

    ever noticed that pedestrians in general tend to slow down whenever they pass directly in front of your rides, kahit green light na? it's as if they're flaunting their "right" to become traffic obstructions B).

    ang sa akin lang naman, mutual courtesy naman; if pedestrians somehow end up in the middle of the road or somewhere we're they're not supposed to be, e di pagbigyan -- ano ba naman ung mag antay ka ng ilang segundo for them to pass? -- pero on the side of the pedestrians, they should also respect the motorist's right of way as well, so they should probably walk a bit faster, if not avoid jaywalking altogether

    2. Ang mga pedestrian kapag ka baba ng PUV e, bigla na lang tatawid kahit may paparating na sasakyan.

    3. Ang mga pedestrian, di marunong magpahalaga sa buhay.

    4.Kapag nag-signal ka para mag lane change, lalong binibilisan ng nasa likod na sasakyan. Punyemas, kahit na malayo pa, magugulat ka kasi mabagal, tapos split seconds, babanga ka na.

    5. Wala na yatang matinong driver sa Pilipinas. Kahit na nag-iingat ka pa.
    I agree to 1,2,3 and especially 4. Pero doon sa #5, hindi. Marami pa ring matino lalo na kung Tsikoteer.

    remove the island and replace them with electric steel fences..

    kaso knowing the filipinos.. ang gagawin ng mga squatter e magtatap dun sa kuryente ng fence at yun ang gagamitin nilang kuryente sa bahay!..:lol

    bwiset talaga...

    alam nyo dito sa NZ, kapag mali ang gamit mo ng crossing tapos nabangga ka ikaw ang may kasalanan.
    say; bigla kang na lang tumawid sa pedestrian. thats misuse of pedestrian pupuwede kang i-sue ng nakabangga sayo..

    its retarded huh!.
