Potholes, and the ever-present standing water that comes with those are slowly eating the asphalt. Effectively there's only one lane, unless you're willing to stake your undercarriage on it.

THE president of the largest international retailer of Oakley is facing criminal charges after he was involved in a road accident wherein a man was killed and another was injured.
Makati Police chief Sr. Supt. Manuel Lukban Jr. identified the suspect as Rajiv Dargani, an Indian and president of Sunglass Hut, the retailer of world-renowned eyewear, Oakley.
Lukban ordered the filing of criminal charges of reckless imprudence resulting in homicide and physical injury and abandonment against Dargani.
The case stemmed from the vehicular accident involving Dargani on April 20 at 3:05 a.m. along the East bound lane of McKinley Road, Barangay Forbes Park, Makati City.
The accident resulted in the death of motorcycle rider Henrix Bernardo, 31. His companion, Glenn Nacion Jr., 30, was hurt in the accident.
According to the police report, Dargani, who was driving an Audi Sports Car bearing plate number JVV-88, left the victims lying on the road pavement after the incident.
“This is a clear hit-and-run incident. That’s why we also charged him with abandonment,” Lukban said.
Prior to the filing of the charges, the Makati police chief said that Dargani’s camp tried to settle with the victims.
But Lukban said settlement is only applicable on civil liabilities.

For a road that passes through one of the, if not the, most exclusive and prosperous enclave in the Philippines, the traffic prone, pothole ridden, uneven and flooded (during typhoon season) road that is McKinley is a big disappointment.
A fitting microcosm of the Philippines

Indian in hit-and-run charged

Luxury car not under suspect’s name
MANILA, Philippines - Police yesterday filed charges against an Indian-Filipino businessman who allegedly figured in a hit-and-run that killed a motorcycle driver in Makati City after he failed to surrender.
Rajiv Ramesh Dargani, president of Sunglass Hut Philippines, was slapped with charges of reckless imprudence resulting in homicide, physical injuries and abandonment of one’s victim with the Makati prosecutor’s office, according to city police chief Senior Superintendent Manuel Lukban.
Lukban said a representative of Dargani requested that police not directly file the case as he would surrender, but he failed to show up.
Dargani was identified by witnesses as the driver of a luxury car that crashed into a motorcycle along McKinley Road at past 3 a.m. Saturday.
He was driving along McKinley Road on his way home to Dasmariñas Village from the direction of the Bonifacio Global City when he allegedly overtook another vehicle and hit a motorcycle on the opposite lane.
Motorcycle driver Henrix Bernardo died on the spot while his passenger, Glenn Nacion Jr., was critically injured, Lukban said.
He added that after the accident, Dargani allegedly did not stop and instead drove to Dasmariñas Village. However, Dargani left the village and has not been seen since.
Lukban said police officers went to Dargani’s house but neither he nor his car was there.
He said the relatives of Dargani’s victims told police that they are not pursuing the case and have executed an affidavit of desistance.
Porsche, not Audi
The luxury car driven by Dargani was not an R8 Audi but a Porsche, a check with the Land Transportation Office (LTO) showed yesterday.
The LTO said the black two-door Porsche Carrera was not registered under the name of the Indian-Filipino businessman. Its registered owner is a certain Joey Valencia of San Juan City based on LTO records.
Its last registration was April 12 this year.
Dargani’s name appeared twice on the LTO database of holders of driver’s license without his photo.

Dapat pala i-check din ni Kim Henares si Mr. Hit-n-Run. second rich kid it and run na yan these past few weeks ah. Baka magkasama na si Rajiv at Baldwin.
Makati CBD is another fine example of bad roads. Premier district eh? Ganyan sila sa Makati indeed!
Nice pa naman to drive under the trees. Few roads in Manila have such trees overhanging.
