    dapat i-print to sa tarpaulin at idikit sa lahat ng wall ng LTO, para habang naghihintay mga driver na-eeducate sila.
    last time na nagrenew ako, ang palabas sa TV nila "AFV" non-sense, kaya mga driver puro kalokohan natututunan.

    thumbs up Sir!

    malinaw give way sa ambulance or any emergency vehicle lang...

    eh ang govt vehicle na may mga motorcycle police escorts?

    eh ang mga private underbone na may LED flashers/blinkers na white and blue / red and blue?

    sa panahon ngayon di mo na alam sino gagalangin mo, di mo naman ma determine kung legit yan sa pag tingin sa side mirror/rear view mirror...

    Let's sticky this thread.

    1. When parking, do not block another car or a driveway. You could obstruct a vehicle needed in an emergency situation if you do. If you really, really must, at least have the mind to leave a contact number on your windshield or with a parking attendant in the area. You’ll prevent any nasty deed that might be inflicted upon your car by the incensed owner of the vehicle you blocked.
    And if you are awakened from your sleep by the homeowner you blocked, please don't forget to follow #20.
    Wag yung ikaw pa ang galit sa inabala mo dahil naisipan niya lumabas ng paradahan niya ng madaling araw.

    2. Never block an intersection. Whoever is guilty of this should have his driver's license revoked. Seriously. One of the most infuriating things that could happen to anyone on the road is to get barred from crossing an intersection by a vehicle trapped inside the intersection box because its lane is already full and it can’t move forward. The caustic remark you want to tell the stupid driver is best rendered in Filipino: "Wala ka naman palang pupuntahan, hinarang-harang mo 'yang kotse mo dyan." In English: "I didn't know they gave driver's licenses to people with an IQ of 20."
    Sometimes, the traffic enforcer himself is guilty of doing this. He'll override the traffic light. Then he'll keep on allowing one lane to cross the intersection until:
    (a) that lane is emptied of cars
    (b) the intersection gets clogged up


    13. Always fall in line. The biggest pricks on the road are those who give no regard to the neat line of cars before them, and attempt to jump it and get ahead of everyone else. We see this a lot at expressway exits and parking entrances. Who the hell do these people think they are?
    You'll see more of this in the Kalayaan interchange elevated u-turn. Dapat lagyan ng steel barriers yung mga lane markers doon sa ingress point ng elevated u-turn para mapilitan manatili sa lanes yung mga kotse.

    20. Offer a friendly wave of acknowledgment or apology. When another motorist politely gives you the right of way, wave at him to let him know you appreciate his act of kindness. And in that rare instance when you absentmindedly commit a blunder, wave as well to tell the other driver you're sorry. From experience, a good-natured gesticulation never fails to dissipate anger. Try it. You'll notice driving--even in hellish Metro Manila--can be a lot less stressful.
    BUT don't use/abuse this apology to justify being a douchebag on the road.
    How many times have you been bullied on the road by a car whose driver always has his left arm dangling outside the window, with his hand reflexively giving you an apologetic wave after he bulldozes his car in front of you.


    If I may add:
    Do not use HAZARD LIGHTS and HAND SIGNALS (Foot signal for tricycle drivers) as excuses to violate traffic rules.

    When you're dropping off passengers, please just drop them off and move out. Wag ka nang mag bigay ng last minute instructions and last minute goodbyes and last minute beso-beso. You had plenty of time to do those things while driving the passenger to his/her destination.

    this is from tgp ph fb page. anyway i thought those were pretty basic road courtesy, can't believe that a lot of people needed to be reminded by that.

    that depends...
    some hand signals are still legal.
    but i think you refer to "individualized hand signals" that are the driver's own design..

    im kinda happy na mas madami na gumagamit ng signal lights nila ngayon dito sa amin. though most use it when they are just about to turn...some bike riders forget to turn off the lights too.

    hand signals...meh. i once saw a trike driver use his pinky. his hand on the bar and the pinky goes up, down. i was surprised when he did make that turn. wtf.

    that puddle thing...i still remember that plateless red innova. i slowed down cause i didn't wanna splash him when he sped up and played moses.
