Traffic Enforcers Bypassing Active Traffic Lights

[sgt_taga]

I still do not understand the logic behind this

Its too freaking confusing and often times very dangerous!

Why don't they just close the traffic lights first before directing traffic that's not in synch with the lights?

Why don't they wear vissible gloves (in daytime) and glowing instruments (at night) when doing this?

I'm sure most will agree that they just make traffic worse in doing this most of the time

Will they serve as "start witness" for those that obey them if the later figure in an accident with another that obey the lights?

Hay... Pinas!!! Kaya di ka makabangun-bangon dahil sa simpleng mga bagay lang eh di pa maitama ng mga "may kapangyarihan"!

[robot.sonic]

kaya madalas mo marinig sa mga tao na kaya pala traffic kasi may enforcer.

Agree with you bro. sgt_taga,- if they want a manual override (them directing the traffic at the intersection),- then turn off that f....... traffic light!
(Hindi mo alam kung sino ang susundin)...

oo bro cvt. sobrang nakakalito.

i almost saw an accident dati kase me kotse na sumunod sa green niya while yung jeep naman eh biglang umandar sa ka-T intersection niya.

yung jeep pala eh pina-go nung naka-grey na "enforcer" despite naka-red siya.

ang siste, di mo talaga mapapansin yung "enforcer" dahil ng grey ang suot at wala man lang suot na gloves na makikita.

kung nagkataon kaya na nabangga yung kotse, anong gagawin nung naka-grey na yun?

sa makati pa ito, btw!

[Chikselog]

Sa Monumento sa Caloocan yung rotonda mismo. Mas trapik pa kapag may mga enforcer. Mga t*nga kasi di inaalam kung gaano na kahaba yung trapik na naccause nila.

[Sarsi]

Notorious dyan yung area ng amorsolo at party road intersection. K*pal din yung amo ng Mga enforcer na si Agrabante.

[Just]

i totally agree with this. turn-off the traffic lights if they want to do it manually kasi nakakalito.

kaya pag naka GO then hindi umaandar mga kotse, for sure me nag ma manual traffic na mmda/traffic enforcer sa harap.

[_Qwerty_]

dito sa makati parati nila ginagawa yan pag rush hour.. ilang beses na ako nakakita nang accidents.. hindi naman nila sinasagot.. usually naka GREEN yung light tapos may makiki alam na traffice enforcer tapos i stop.. so biglang stop yung nasa harap.. kaso yung kasunod.. hindi naman alam na may traffic enforcer na nagpa stop tapos naka tingin pa din sa traffice lights eh naka go.. so yun.. bangga don sa unahan nya..

[sgt_taga]

kanina naman sa intersection ng makati ave at pasay road, napakaingay ng mga busina ng mga kotse

kase ayaw ipa-go nung nagta-trapik kahit na green na yung papuntang new world

di ko ma-get kung bakit ginawa yun eh maluwag naman yung intersection at wala naman mahabang build up in all directions

parang nag-trip lang yata yung mga mokong

i could just hear the cursing of those who'd be late in their work at 9am

it was really just a normal stop and go on that intersection at that time (cause i happen to pass by)

why those "enforcers" decided to intervene is beyond logic talaga

[cast_no_shadow]

Im thankful binalik na ulit ang stoplight sa intersection ng Q Ave - Araneta ave. Dati mga traffic enforcer din ang nagmamando dun, sobrang traffic and build up ng both side/directions. i agree mas traffic pag may enforcer, Kaya nga may stoplight para lagyan ng sistema. Tapos lalagyan mo ng manual human intervention.

[lowslowbenz]

Hay naku! .. Matagal ng problema yan! Minsan nga pinara ako ng MAPA dahil pina-stop nya na raw ako, bakit ako naka-go pa. Paano, yung katabi nyang MAPSA sumisenyas ng GO ... tapos sya STOP! (intersection of Ayala and HV dela Costa/Salcedo)

Sarap pag-untugin yung dalawang yun ..

Ayoko na ma-highblood ....... Friday ngayon! ...

[_Qwerty_]

kasi dadaan si VP o kaya si mayor o kaya si congressman.. kaya kailangan dire diretso yung dadaanan nila..

Basta ako, kung sino ang pwedeng humuli saakin iyon ang susundin ko. In this case, yung traffic enforcer.

Pero yeah, you're right. Sana patayin nalang nila yung stoplight para hindi malito. Mahirap din yung kapag nasa harap ka ng "pack" tapos naka-hinto ka even naka-green yung stoplight dahil sabi ng enforcer at bababaran ka ng busina ng mga tao sa likod mo.

hahaha dami kaseng bwitre sa makati.

ako naman a few months ago eh pinara rin nung "enforcer" na nagmarunong sa pagdidirect ng traffic sa me ayala.

nung nag-green kase kami, andar ako (sa unahan ako eh)

tapos bigla akong pinahinto nung mokong after a couple of meters of advancing.

di ko pa daw turn. sabi ko eh green na kami chief.

di pa daw kase di pa daw niya kami pinapa-turn.

sabi ko eh dapat pinapatay na lang nila yung traffic light kung gusto nilang magmando. nakakalito kase.

aba akalain mo eh pinatabi ako at hinihingi lisensiya ko!

tanong ko violation ko at ang sabi eh not following traffic signal daw.

sabi ko eh ano ba ang ibig sabihin ng green - di ba go? napakamot si "enforcer".

sabi eh assault na lang daw dahil pinagsabihan ko siya na sundin na lang yung traffic light

assault???? WTF??!!! sabi ko dun sa ogag...

alam mo ba ang ibig sabihin ng "assault"? ikaw, gusto mo kasuhan kita ng harrassment ngayon?

natameme ang loko. then sabi ko, ayusin nyo trabaho at wag mang-abala ng mga sumusunod sa batas.

Our Traffic Enforcers need to go back and take a course in Traffic Enforcement. Anlalabo nila!

It's ok, IMO, for them to take over an intersection and direct traffic manually if the situation warrants it. Some traffic light settings/timing are out of this world. But to reduce confusion, they should really turn off the traffic lights if they mean to direct traffic. They should also wear the proper reflective gear/ gloves so that they are better seen especially at night.

That's the main problem with a lot of the confusion, they don't turn off the traffic lights. In Makati, some enforcers (lalo na kung barangay) tend to favor certain lanes as well, causing a big back-up on other lanes. On Kalayaan after coming down from the Buendia - Fort flyover), the traffic there is always bad because of the parked cars/jeeps/trikes belonging to voting Makati residents (these are never towed unlike in CBD) and the tanod enforcer who gives priority to the tricycles coming from the side street instead of the cars on the main road.

A lot of them probably don't drive or ride private vehicles really so they dont understand the position and situation of the car and the driver.
