Reducing road rage

[falken]

I just think happy thoughts, but it's getting harder as there seems to be more *hole drivers every year.

Ako iniisip ko nalang na natatae na sila kaya siguro siningitan nila ako.

Pag karag-karag yung magulo, iniisip ko na lang I'm in a nicer car. Kaso pag nag counterflow na naman si Tongressman in his LC...

Pansin ko lang, yung mga kups kung makasingit sa traffic, pagdating sa open road parang walang alam sa high speed driving.

Sinabi mo pa. Kapal ng mga mukha sumingit tapos kung biritan sa open roads, tameme naman.

I encountered one kupal Swift driver gusto mag cut sa harapan ko pero di talaga sya makasingit. Nung open na yung daan, ayaw makipag hatawan.

karamihan sa mga arrogant driver they drive slowly when you overtake them saka bibilisan, kakainis 😤

Yup. Ganyan nga. Sabagay I don't think they'll get far on the highway if they drive the way they do in traffic.

So many douches on the roads these days that I try to make extra effort to give way to people who use turn signals. Still hoping positive reinforcement will somehow disarm these thugs.

Yan ang pinakaayaw kong ugali ng ibang driver, yung ayaw pumila and then pilitin pang sumingit and then pag open na ang road babagalan ang takbo that he's causing traffic na.

Madalas mangyari ito near toll gate sa coastal road...sisingit then paglampas ng toll gate di alam kung saan pupwesto na mas lalo nakakapag cause ng traffic.

Nakakainis dyan malayo pa lang pipila ka nang maayos tapos pagdating sa dulo yung linya mo pa ang lumalabas na singit dahil may gumawa na ng panibagong pila.

nakakalito talaga dyan sa coastal toll gate, if you'll notice paliko kasi yung daan papunta sa toll gate kaya nagkakalituhan talaga sa pagpila ilang beses na din ako nagkamali dyan, akala ko nasa exact change lane ako nung malapit lapit na ko nasa ibang linya pala ako! too late to change lane...

perhaps if they follow the slex arrangement.

On reducing road rage, I force myself to think that the driver or the occupants of the other car could be someone I know.

If you follow through with that assumption, you can condition yourself to avoid an awkward situation. For example, how would you feel if the other guy turned out to be your boss or somebody you're trying to impress or respect?

Kahit hindi na yun.... For example, you shout or make rude gestures at him for an altercation, but when he/she rolled down the window, friend mo pala sa FB.

Relax nalang and detach yourself, emotionally, from the chore of driving. Keep your mind busy with something else. Listen to a podcast, for example.

Angas naman ng Adventure na yan. I recently had a run-in with an *$$ driver of an Adventure. On my way to the office, I switched lane in preparation to make a left. I had enough distance from the Adventure on my rear but the driver was flashing his lights and honking his horn. When he came along side me at the stoplight, he gave me a bad look of sorts. Hinayaan ko na. Kung hahamunin nya ako ng stoplight-to-stoplight sprints, ipapamukha ko sa kanya gaano kabagal yung Adventure nya. Hahahaha

TPLEX, southbound - saludo ako sa naka Crosswind,- aba e tumatakbo ng tantya ko ay 120KPH sa fastlane,- at very minimal ang usok!

Nuong napansin niyang dumarating ako,- pumunta siya ng middle lane (nagbigay)...

Ako rin, a few moments after, pumunta ng middle lane,- dahil may paparating na mukhang 180KPH ang takbo...

That's one way of doing things right. Keep the left lane open to faster vehicles.

I normally cruise just below 120kmh on NLEX/SCTEX/TPLEX and just go to the left lane to pass. There are times though I am in a hurry and I just seem to pass almost other cars on the road.

Scooby/ie iyong nag-overtake sa akin, bro...

This is what I do too. I assume it might be a (most probably very distant) relative.

I just can't shake the idea that giving way all the time encourages such reckless behavior.

Ideally the LGU should be responsible for enforcing driving laws. If it can be done in BGC, Subic and Marikina? I don't see why others can't follow suit.

Nope, di ako yun, bossing. Nasa Paranaque at Alabang area lang ako whole weekend. Next month na ako punta dyan sa TPLEX area.
