Right turn dilemma on EDSA

**webmiester** · September 21st, 2007 01:15 AM

Yung Right Turn to Ortigas going to Rosario along EDSA coming from Makati ang labo! (Eto yung intersection with Robinson's Galleria and Our Lady Of EDSA Shrine)

Walang break yung yellow line before Robinson's Galleria, then a barrier comes up.

If you turn right to enter the yellow lane just before the barrier, you can be given a ticket for swerving...

If you turn into the lane a bit early, you get a ticket for yellow-lane violation.

Pero wala naman talagang break yung yellow line! Saan yung tamang lugar? I end up going straight and entering the white plains area where the yellow line break is again a bit tricky...

Right turn ka before Poveda, tapos at the end of the street tapos dun na sa main road, take the first U turn. Derecho ka lang then syempre right ulit yun na yun saves a lot of time lalo na dami bus dun sa Galle

that's what is called a trap... seriously ang gulo ng area na yan. kaya ako sa megamall na ako turn right then just pass into ortigas center. hirap na mahuli dyan mag aaway lang kaoy ng huli-dapper.

muntik na ako dyan mahuli saw the enforcer pointing at me na, ginawa ko pinasok ko sa gale, nung humabol sya, told him saan mo gusto ako dumaan papasok ng gale ha? eh yung mga bus ayaw naman pasingit kaya from the the outer lane pagtapat sa gale nung nagka opening pinasok ko na agad. swerving pa din daw. kung maaga ako tumabi yellowlane naman. told him sige sa crame na lang tayo magusap, para mabuking itong trap ninyo... lumayas ang huli-dapper.

Saan yung right turn papasok ng Megamall? Di ko rin makita to... I was looking for it before, nahuli rin ako for yellowlane violation

Julia vargas st. yung in between the two megamall buildings. but if you're coming from shaw underpass di ka makakapasok ng J. Vargas. dun sa next street ka na papasok the one in between poveda and gale. di ko alam name nung street na yun.

Bayani bayani where are you? Sana nagbabasa ka ng thread na ito at magawan ng aksyon itong hulidapers mo.

Oh well.. sins ng nakaraan yan hanggang ngayon dala dala natin.. Kung wala sanang magnanakaw sa gobyerno at pinagplanuhan ba ng maayos pa ito noong sinauna pa eh di ayos sana tayo...

Once na mahuli, ivideo mo using your cellphone video. Tapos tanungin mo ng masinsinan ano iyong spot kung saan ka pwedeng kumanan na hindi ka mayeyellow lane at maseswerving :D sa tingin ko wala itong mabibigay na sagot.

Pagka video, isubmit ito sa MMDA para matugunan ng aksyon. Putek maganda ipa-Media. nakakaawa talaga tayo sa Pilipinas.. Dahil sa walang maasahan sa gobyerno ang ginagawa ng mga naapi ay "ipamedia". Haay..

That street is Guadix.

Naku, madalas ako mapara dyan sa lugar na yan. Same experience: if you stay out of the yellow lane then turn right, you'll get flagged down for swerving. If you go inside the yellow lane even for just a meter so that you won't swerve, you'll get flagged down for a yellow-lane violation. Eto pa experience ko: even if there are no vehicles from the GH area going to Rosario, you have to stop full before turning else you get flagged down for not yielding. Yielding to what? Ilang beses na akong napaaway sa mga MMDA dito. The worst insult I got was tinanong pa ako kung alam ko spelling at meaning ng word na YIELD - at kung nakapag-aral daw ba ako. The nerve!

The thing is, okay lang naman sa akin matiketan kung may clear violation ako talaga na mae-explain nila ng malinaw at maayos. Kaso, abay hinde maipaliwanag mabuti - minsan ayaw pa ngang magpaliwanag! All of the flag-down experiences ko dyan eh I was asking for a ticket (tiketan mo na ako, wala ng maraming satsat at pangiinsulto sa akin). Abay ayaw naman akong tiketan at bumaba daw ako at "magusap" daw kami. One even tried to board my vehicle! PI na mga yan! So, natiketan ba ako: hinde - kase talo sila sa debate always, lalo na pag si misis ang nakadebate nila - para nilang nakaharap si Sen. Miriam, ahahaha!

I agree with Impulzz: that area is a trap and pardon for my generalization, IMO the MMDA people posted on that area are close relatives of Crocodile Dundee. Dapat siguro naka Crocs sila na sandals para in-character talaga.

Pardon to those who are pro-MMDA Tsikoteers pero wala akong ka amor-amor sa traffic division nila. Kung kayo meron, God bless you kase mababait kayo talaga.
