RANT! Slippery driveway at Galleria

[mazdamazda]

A few months ago... Galleria rehabilatated their parking facility... this included the painting of their driveways and parking areas.

Shortly after this was finished, I took a corner that I usually go through and I was surprised that my tires weren't holding up as usual. The car oversteered and if not for the ABS I would have slammed into another parked car.

Just this morning, after I exited a tight 90 degree corner at a very SLOW speed, my rear right tire broke traction. The painted driveway was a bit wet / moist. Since the speed was very slow, I didn't anymore try to recover (by steering to the right) and just let the car come to a full stop under the aid of the ABS.

I admit that my right rear tire is due for a replacement but still the "paint" job on the Galleria driveway just screams road hazard...

honga pre. dyan ka naman nagwowork diba? baka one of these days sumablay ka maski may abs...

Try Raffles Bldg. here in Ortigas parking. 30-40 degress angle.

[pissword]

ang magandang paint sa parking yung sa megamall and sa greenbelt.

hindi rubberized yung paint? tsk tsk.. very dangerous.

[mazdamazda]

Parang rubberized yung paint and makapit kapag tuyo... pero kapag may tubig na medyo madulas na.

Sa incline / decline walang problem namain since parang checked metal yung surface so makapi and dumadaloy yung tubig between.

Ganyan naman yata yung rubberized paint eh. Yung sa basketball court namin dito sa village na naka-rubberized paint, makapit naman pag tuyo at bagong punas pero pagka nabasa madulas talaga.

One guy on our boards loves the Galleria paint... he uses it to "drift". :lol:

But that is hazardous... I'm pretty sure there have been accidents already... bakit kaya di pa pinalitan?

[gearspeed]

hehehe! maraming "marks" nga ng mga sumabit na dun sa B3 parking...

its not only galleria who has that kind of paint-rehabilitated parking lot. sa robinson's manila ganyan na rin. ang ingay ng tires namin pag tuyo..walang grip. pag basa, sobrang gaan naman ng steering mo..tapos naka-power steering ka pa...delikado talaga.

at least you confirmed my observation... maingay kapag dry... low-grip kapag wet.

I've already sent an email to their customer service.

Actually boss kasya pajero pa-exit sa B3 "for cars only" passage. Yun lang nga nakaka-trauma yung experience. Also, may diskarte. I saw more than a few Pajeros doing the exit.
