    you have the law on your side. When I think of the driver, I believe we have good lawyers in the PAO. The defense is so simple...I just hope the taxi driver qualifies as indigent litigant.

    I just found it odd for people who may be similarly situated with the taxi driver to be embracing imprisonment...tsk...the law has been in existence for so many years and yet people tend not to know..."Ignorance of the law excuses no one". This is also a legal provision. It is not just an adage but a legal provision. Laws should operate to our advantage when we are in the right. If we immediately ascribe liability to the pitiful taxi driver, then ignorance, I should say, is still prevalent even in this age of the so-called modern tech.

Sa bansa natin, insisting on your right of way all the time while driving is a recipe for disaster, especially sa mga motorcycle riders na mukhang ang alam lang ay paandarin yung motor at walang alam sa road rules. defensive driving dapat.
    eto pa isa o. sige nga try mo umiwas kahit 60kph lang takbo mo. volunteer na ako, ako yung mag-u-u-turn at ikaw ang sa taxi. pero imbes na suv e bulldozer dala ko. tignan natin kung magtaka ka pa.

    (But has some 'degree' of wisdom, IMO....Here's an example,- while I was riding in a vehicle with a couple of class-colleagues in the US, in a one-way street, we chanced upon another vehicle who was driving in the wrong direction. The other passenger was egging our driver to "hit him... hit him... hit him" as we could rightfully claim insurance as we were following "traffic rules", while the other vehicle obviously was not....

    It's high time to upgrade the qualification. This is the reason why I do not give any policeman a passing grade if he does not in fact pass the examination I administer. They will soon have the rank of "major" so the requirement to be intelligent becomes more stringent.

    I think we make a distinction. Lawyers are deemed advocates. Our appreciation of the law is varied and this makes lawyering interesting. Advocates convince the judge to interpret the law according to how the suitor appreciates the law. Then the judge weighs. Trial becomes so interesting when the lawyers are all prepared. Further studies, preparation, and the love for the law makes one an advocate. Hence, not all lawyers are advocate. This, the people should also know,-know the difference.

    sa video parang ang unang intention ng taxi pumunta sa middle lane

    kaya lang since yung SUV occupied the middle lane instead of the left most lane muna, by the time nag decide yung taxi to go to the left most lane (and since mabilis ang taxi), nag pang-abot na sila sa middle lane

    ganun yata nangyari

    Nangyari na rin sa akin iyan some years ago. Inurungan ako ng jeepney driver, tapos ako raw ang may kasalanan.... Hay naku!...

    ^ UP diliman. di na ako pumupunta dun at baka bawiin nila diploma ko.

    ateneo? pumupunta lang kami dun nuon para magbasketball. other than that it is a totally useless waste of real estate.
