**falken** · May 30th, 2007 11:33 PM

Dilapidated cars, vehicles without tail lights, vehicles with worn out stoplights.(the tail lights are working but no stop light)

Whatever you think is dangerous.
I'm just interested to know what people think of other cars on the road. Personally I see a lot of econoboxes weaving in and around other traffic on the SLEX, but other people are probably acquainted with a completely different demographic of reckless tools.

Based on experience and observation, here are my profile for reckless drivers:

1. Some truck and a few bus drivers
2. Teenaged-Young Adult male driver with a girl (trying to inpress) usually drives an econobox that tries so hard to look like a supercar, aka rice. Like Civics, Lancers and Corollas with huge spoilers that looks like it would fly and has stupid stickers that you can barely see the color of the paint.

Sorry pero galit lang talaga ako sa mga rice. Sobrang KSP kasi eh! Pakitang gilas pa sa tollways natin! Tunog syento, takbo bente naman! :fire:

Isuzu Crosswind that kissed the ass of my Santa Fe...Nakatutok sa likod, tapos di naman pala kaya ng break. Kung di lang kasama yung parents sa Crosswind, malamang nabugbog ko na yung teenager dahil napaka-arrogant sumagot! Kesyo nag-break daw ako bigla, kasalanan ko daw! hehehe!

Agree with you. Marami ngang ganyang klase ang reckless sa kalye.... Marami rin outside ng expressway,- lalo na sa mga overtaking maneuvers. Grabe talaga,- halos bungguin na ang kasalubong, maka-overtake lang....

OT: At 'reckless' din pag umuuwi sila ng madaling araw... Napakaingay,- gising ang buong komunidad pag sila ay dumadaan,- At hindi pa nagpapatay ng makina kaagad,- at pati ng kanilang stereo...... Hay hay hay, naku...

IMO, it is not the car that is dangerous - it is the driver behind the wheel. As I've said so many times here in this community: the car is just a tool and as with all tools, it is ony as safe as the person who is using the tool.

One may be driving a dilapitated PUJ on the expressway buyt strictly adheres to rules and exsiting laws - and knows the limitations of his vehicle, IMO that driver is less dangerous that a teenager or speed junkie driving a Merc whos snaking and tail-gating all the way, making the road unsafe for fellow motorists.
