    Very unusual to see this, pero may convoy na Silver Toyota Vios (gen before the current one) with a regular plate number at black Nissan X-Trail with a customized Kalinga plate stating "LAWYER" travelling in SLEX yesterday (Saturday).

    Nagkataon lang na nearing the Bicutan Exit, at knowing na maraming pasaway na kahit NO CHANGING LANE na nga yung rightmost lane gawa ng for exiting vehicles lang yun, aba e ang magaling na Vios na naka-wangwang (hehe note Vios ang nasa harap, AT yup, siya pa ang may wangwang hindi yung X-Trail, men... talk about trying to feel VIP) ay nag-cut nung sasakyan directly behind me. So ngayon nasa likod ko siya at sumabay din sa kanya ang ineescortan niyang X-Trail.

    Having NO RESPECT for these feeling VIP's and feeling PRESIDENT/AMBULANCE or what have you for having sirens on their security vehicle, I just blocked his way from squeezing between the half-shoulder lane and the rightmost lane. Oh God did I love his security's Silver car flashing his lights continuously and running his sirens over and over. Unfortunately, I love my sounds even more, so I just turned the nob a little higher and oh, is the car still running his sirens? Well, I don't know, can't hear. Oh he's still flashing his lights, well, I'll just pretend I'm as ignorant as he is for installing a siren for a non-Presidential vehicle.

    So, with still about 800meters to the exit, and in about more than 5 minutes due to the traffic, well, too bad... he got too tired of flashing and running his sirens. I wonder why?

    When I glanced on my rearview mirror, I saw a one-man security/driver using hand gestures as if asking me to move aside. Oh but why? Are you nearing delivery? What's the hurry? Tummy's aching? Then just a little more and he does the unthinkable: he really squeezed himself into that half-shoulder lane! God his wheels are already scratching through the gutter and he doesn't even care! Still trying to get through me, and hoping I'd bulge (like I will), I just let him try and hit my side. I'm more than willing to ask for his insurance and let him pay for any damage he may do to my vehicle. Heck, I may even get a free washover for this mor*n. Who cares if he's being convoyed by a Lawyer, if he dare blames me for not giving way, well what clause in our LAW that mentioned it legal to overtake through the shoulder? And what clause in our LAW did it also mention that he's a president to be able to have the authority to install sirens on his security vehicle? His boss is a lawyer now isn't he? But hey, everyone's gotta chicken out sometimes. Looking at my sidemirror, WOAH! I can see how good his gitgitan skills are! He sure can fit, well, IF only his sidemirrors weren't installed cause it will hit mine and bam! That's the signal for me to go down and wait for an enforcer to arrive.

    So, having his highly scratched front, he just slams on the breaks the moment he realized his silver sedan he uses to act as a "security" vehicle for his boss on the x-trail really doesn't fit in that half-shoulder lane. And in the last 100meters to the exit, I still blocked his path. I passed through a jeep that used the lane as well even if he's not exiting, but I thanked that jeep... why? Well, the mor*n driver of that Vios overtaked on the wrong side, and he simply got blocked by the jeep. Talk about genius. And I thought I was impressed by his gitgitan skills. Well at least this will all be over knowing that I thought wrongly of him: he's nothing compared to the buses plying through EDSA.

    So I exited to Bicutan, and saw in my rearview that their convoy is just one of the numerous pasaways going further south and not even exiting considering that they're on the exit lane. As I ascend through the toll, I left with a grin on my face and proud that I was able to show to these wanna-be's that they gain NO RESPECT to motorists they encounter on the road with their "unique" convoy and security vehicle that has an alarm-type sounding siren installed.

    Ayun, share ko lang. Sa mga nabibwisit sa mga ganito hanggang ngayon, huwag na lang. Masisira lang araw niyo. At kung sino man naperwisyo ng convoy na 'to, well at least alam niyo na ngayon na pati sila in some part e naperwisyo rin.

    I would have given way if that happened to me. You'll never know who carries a gun.

    continuation of the story :

    ...and then my mom woke me up. ma-late na raw ako sa work.. what a nightmare.


    BTT:
    that's a very risky move... as Cathy have said, "you'll never know who carries a gun" and gun plus road rage is a bad combination. Add that the humiliation he's feeling that time.

    I'm not sure whether you're saying that as a joke or you're serious. But if you're serious, might as well know the reason why a lot of people hate seeing these "wangwang" wanna-be's on the road.

    Perhaps Maam, but by the end of it I gave way naman e (when I exited the toll that is) he had a hard time finding a way through that path though.

    Last week after work around 2pm I decided to pass edsa (sabi nila maluwag na daw) on the way to caloocan. Traffic was a breeze from Makati to Guadalupe to SM megamall. Tt slowdown to a crawl after the ortigas flyover. I thought it was cause by an accident. It turn out that just before the underpass of Tuazon in Cubao there were these 10 to 15 mmda who was flagging down motorist (cars and motorcycles) for whatever violation they could slap on them. Everyone was honking their horn in desperation (thank god we didnt have automatic weapons). Such *ssh*les!!!
