White Pajero tried to drive me off my lane

[bender]

Last Sunday Aug 31, After fetching my girlfriend from her house, we were driving in edsa just after the end of the flyover from ayala avenue and before the bus lanes when a white pajero (fieldmaster type with chrome mags) suddenly moves into my lane from the right. I was forced to move to the left to avoid my driver fender and headlight being hit. my girlfriend became somewhat hysterical because of the sudden movement and told me if i did anything to provoke them or didn't I see them? she blames me for somebody trying to drive us off the lane from behind? well, i got angry and basically caught up with them, went in front of them and left them in the dust while she keeps on telling me to stop it. :whoa:

I was going to enter the street at the corner of the Aristocrat lamps building when we caught sight of the Pajero again. It seems that the driver kept on swerving and it was really his style of driving. I can tolerate bus and taxi drivers but reckless ones like him can really get on my nerves.

not a single day pass, that i dont encounter such things here in phils. stay cool, and let him pass na lang. masasanay ka din.

Mahirap talagang magpigil ng sarili pag nakatagpo ka ng mga balasubas na ganyan. As much as possible wag kang papatol sa mga bastos na motorista pag kasama mo gf/nanay/lola/ate mo, sigurado pagkatapos nun butas ang tenga mo sa katatalak nila.

[XTO]

pinanonood ko na lang ang mga ganyan. and hoping may makatapat na ka-parehas niya para magtanda. makate siguro paa

[aga_cruz]

ewan ko lang kung makaasta sya pag expedition hummer o kaya bmw x5 ang gaganyanin nya baka kaya matapang dahil akala nya bigtym na ang dala nyan pajero

[daimengrui]

Did you manage to get the plates ?

let it pass. daming ganyan sa kalye. everyday, i encounter morons too like that.
na-pressure ka lang siguro dahil kasama mo gf mo. hehehehe.

[ghosthunter]

Another example of road bullies (simply because he is driving a big SUV)?

Bro about your Gf going hysterical. I sympathize with you

[Autobeat]

Fieldmaster type? Baka driver is improperly trying to compensate for it's difficulty to accelerate. No offense meant to decent Fieldmaster owners/drivers.

It seems kasi typical 1600 or even some 1300 cars can out accelerate this version of the Pajero, especially in Edsa's stop and go traffic.

It is not right for a passenger to fan the obvious flame of a driver, just like what your GF did to you, bro. If somebody did that to me, I'd tell him or her to stop as I am already hot. If he or she does not stop,- I'd pull over and offer him or her the driver's seat....

After you get the plate number, what next?

I usually tell her to shut up. heehehe :D

I think what you did was right, just avoid them and leave them behind. Or if suspicious sila, you be the one to slow down and observe, then try to lose them so long as you know the area. If not then be extra cautious.

Drunk driver or not, avoid any confrontation at all costs. Seeing eye to eye with the driver is enough sign to intimidate them, lalo na kung mainit na ang ulo.

Tell your GF not to worry, and that you can handle it.

Stay cool, be cool. Not worth your time dude. Ignore drivers like that. There will be idiots like him and that's what makes driving in this country so interesting. Your girlfriend should know better than to berate you. I guess she doesn't drive?

[j_avonni]

Always be cool when driving. I just ignore and avoid drivers like the one you encountered. And, in such situation, ignore your GF too and request her to refrain from nagging you while driving and just keep quiet.

[yebo]

next time to avoid encounters like that, you should find a new GF

kainis yan marunong pa sa driver e!

Normally i keep my cool and take very few risks when it comes to driving here. When the white pajero basically tried to nudge me off, i reacted instinctively and moved the right to avoid the accident. However, i really lost my cool because the driver was a bully. The last time I had an encounter with somebody like that, it resulted in an accident with a drunk driver. It was a waste of time and effort, going the police station, talking to the cops, my employer's security officer, my gf whos also a lawyer, my dad to let him know what's happening, etc. So when I overtook him, that was it. I wasn't going to actually hit him because it isn't worth it.
