hazard light

[Alpha_One]

Sorry. Miscommunication. Sayang dami pa namang nag-react. I meant to say pag malakas ang ulan at nakakita ako ng hazard light sa NLEX na ina-assume ko na gumagapang pa-abante ang sasakyan at hindi necessarily nakatigil. It's not a stupid assumption naman kasi kahit nakatigil siya talaga, I can still stop in time since I'm assuming nga gumagapang eh.

I don't think EDSA speeds would necessitate hazard lights for visibility reasons, except for certain hours ng new year (specially in the early 90s).

And by the way, yes, I've lived in the US east coast for several years kaya nga may karugtong na Trucks/PUBs yung last sentence eh -- hindi lang ulan. May close relative kasi ako na inararo ng 20-footer na inaantok yung driver bulok pa yung truck. I don't think those things would even be on foreign roads and I think those are even more important to implement than mere driving courtesy.

I've been driving safely over 20 years and just driving over 30 (buti di ako nadale nung pagitan ano?). hahaha. Kayo?

Yun namang sa EWD, nagtataka lang ako kasi past 6 vehicles ko nabibili lahat may libreng EWD na. Eh kung madami pa din wala nun eh di lalo na yung rear fog lights! (Sabagay jeep nga madalas walang ilaw eh ano -- what do we do then?)

Yung mga ayaw sa assumption ko, eh di huwag niyo. I'd rather risk confusing you than being rear-ended by a 20-footer anyway.

The keyword in your post is "not necessarily". Of course you got us confused, you were practically saying (before saying "not necessarily") that any random lunatic with hazards on will be moving.

True, I could assume that "he's not necessarily stopped". But then again I could just as safely assume nothing, other than he's being a hazard of course, and prepare to avoid him. Which amounts to the same thing.

Oh yeah, 90% of all drivers think their skill is "above average". Which is of course, impossible. I make no qualms about you being a better driver than I am. Of course you are! I'll be the first guy to admit that I'm a rubbish driver, and ten times as bad when it comes to parking. I haven't exactly been living for thirty years you know, let alone drive for that long. I'm sorry, but I really have nothing to brag about in the end.
