    Hello po mga brothers and sisters of tsikot, ingat po tayo, the rainy season is here at grabe ang lubak o potholes sa edsa. Almost fell victim of this mysterious pothole.

    I was driving edsa southbound going to makati last night,and it was raining hard, driving carefully, of course, when out of the blue, muntik na ako madali ng pothole na malalim, grabe na talagang etong mga daan natin, grrr, buti na lang nailagan ko, whew! ingat na lang po kayong lahat baka madali kayo niyan.

    The said pothole if your going to south if your coming from munoz, it's right before Kamuning flyover, slow down na po kayo at nasa 2nd lane eto from the left, baka kayo magulat at masira ang beloved rides ninyo. Sana matakpan na eto at baka pagmulaan pa ng accident eto.

    Who knows where the other mystery potholes will crop up......

    Watch out na lang po tayong lahat, ingats po!

    Hahaha... Dito naman sa SouthMM,- sa loob mismo ng BF,- ang daming potholes dahil sa hukay ng Maynilad na hindi sinisimentuhan. Iyong dating malambot na tambak na lupa,- isang ulan lang,- wala na.........

    It's an environmental thing => biodegradable roads :D

    Makati CBD roads are made of the same material. Binay places a new layer of asphalt and after one strong rain, everything is gone (prime example is Paseo de Roxas). He doesn't notice it though as his SUV pretty much eats up the bad roads unlike the conventional sedans of us lowly wagers.

    There's also a set of new potholes on the middle lanes of EDSA - Greenhills near the Petron Station.

    Sa City of Manila naman, biglang dumami ang mga manholes na nawalan ng takip.

    One location is at the SLEX-San Andres Intersection South Bound Outermost Lane. Tsk tsk tsk.

    Iyan ang delikado bro.... Nai-report na kaya iyan sa mga autoridad? Ang problema, mahirap yatang mapalitan ang mga ito kaagad....

    Grabe talaga etong mga potholes, saw 2 more yesterday again same route, Munoz going to makati, one malapit a may SM city ,a taxi just went over it while nakikipagsingitan sa jeep na pampasehero(do not know if i willl be happy, joke lang po, hehehehe ), another sa may camp crame sa left most lane, a private car went to it, poor guy and from the look of things nadadagdagan pa nga ata.

    Haay, whats the use of our so called, road user tax na sinisingil sa atin every registration, asan na ba yung mga departments na dapat magmaintain ng roads natin? malamang napunta nanaman ang budgets sa kanya kanyang bulsa.

    Everyone here can really attest to what the state of our roads are, haay, only in the Philippines, ingat na lang po talaga tayo.

    Di ko lang alam kung na-ireport na 'to.
    The locals have placed a marker by placing a tree branch on top of it.

    Kaso minsan nawawala. Araw araw akong dumadaan diyan.
    Minsan may marker. Minsan wala.

    Delikado pag may dumaan don na medyo mabilis.
