Road Discourtesy

[rna800]

How about if you make an overtake in a safe distance and already in the middle of it, while the vehicle on the opposite lane flashes his light instead of slowing down!
Is it a discourtesy on their side?
Or, is it a recklesness on my side even I knew I can pass ahead of time?

I believe it's reckless if you still forced your vehicle to enter the lane given that the other driver isn't willing to give. But if more than half of your car is already in the lane but the other driver still kept on flashing his lights or worse with matching horn, then it's already discourteous for the other driver. Remember that turning on your signal light doesn't mean you could enter or change lanes right away. You should always make sure that it's safe before changing.

yea bro, nakakairita. nakababad yun bright sa likod mo. ako ang ginagawa ko, sa inis kasi nakakasilaw talaga sa rearview mirror, pinipitik ko yun switch sa rearview mirror para sa night mode. para hindi nakakasilaw. pero minsan pag tinotopak ako, pinapauna ko sya tapos bababaran ko naman siya sa likod. sorry alam kong mali pero siguro twice or thrice ko lang ginawa.

sa tingin ko kapag nag flash siya once, it's a reminder na get back to your lane immediately kasi mejo malapit na siya. it's now your job to go back to your lane na. kapag nakabalik ka kagad sa lane mo, no harm against the driver na nagflash, pero make sure na hindi mo din naagrabiyado yung inovertake-an mo at hindi mo siya na cut or sideswipe. dapat calculado lahat. speed ng oncoming traffic, speed ng nasa harap mo, required speed mo para makaovertake ng safe, at minsan yun mga gusto din umovertake sa likod mo. gamit na gamit to sa mga biyahe sa province, yun mga national road na two way lang.

As for my opinion at this situation, if I see a overtaking vehicle at the opposite lane, I would not flash headlight for him because I know he His aware and instead of speeding up, I would slow down and calculate the speed and space from my side to let him go back to his lane safely to avoid accident, if you do not give way even his fault if accident happen it is a waste of time to involve

This is my thought also.
Flashing of light doesnt help the situation, but giving way makes both MV's back to their respective track safely.

Thanks for your Opinion Mr K.

i also hate this one!
kahapon i was parking sa may kalsada since holiday naman,naka hazard ako,medyo mahirap kunin yung parking tapos there's this aluminum van na binababaran ako ng busina,considering wala namang traffic at nasa hospital zone kame because i work in a hospital.so alam mo yung feeling na napepressure ka magpark,hindi man lang makapag antay!

[F-14]

I think Im right.
People do the flashing of light or honking while you are in the middle of the road situation, seems they like to take away your momentary right of way!
Selfish people...

para sa kin, very discourteous yung i'm crusing *120kph sa SLEX (which we know na 100kph lang ang limit) e biglang may tututok sa likod mo while flashing their headlights na parang minumura ka na "tumabi" ka. considering na napakaluwag din naman sa right side. IMO since 100kph lang naman ang speed limit, i have the right to be in the outer lane. kung gusto mo lumusot e di lumusot ka sa kanan na maluwag naman. kaya gagawin ko pag may tumutok na ganun e tatabi na lang ako...... palulusutin ko na sya....... tapos hahabulin ko hanggang maiwanan ko ng milya milya para lang ma realise nya na wag maangas sa kalsada.

basta wala ka sa left most lane ok lang hindi tumabi at stay on your lane. pero kung nasa left most (overtaking lane) dapat po tumabi tayo. i remember nung break-in ng auto ko naka 160 na ko pero may tumutok pa rin sa akin at nagflash, kaya no choice at tumabi ako. balak ko sana habulin kaso ang tulin eh :-)

I'm sorry but you have no right to cruise and camp on the leftmost lane even if you are driving at the speed limit.

Basic road rules and courtesy dictates that the outer (leftmost lane) is for passing only. After passing a slower car, you switch back to the center or right lanes. If a person is faster then you, irregardless of speed, you have to move from the passing lane to middle or right side of the road when it's free to allow them to safely pass you.

If you hog the left lane because you are running at the speed limit, even if the middle lanes are open, huwag ka magtaka kung bakit may mga nagagalit sa iyo. Its also unsafe as that kind of driving forces faster vehicles to have to pass on the center and right lanes.

e di ba nga't tumabi na ko at pinalusot na sya. kasi ako pag lumulusot ako, at alam ko naman na yung oovertake an ko e di naman mabagal but i'm faster at maluwag naman ang right lane, why bother? let them stay where they are and ill do my driving. ang di ko lang kursunada e yung parang nang haharass sa likuran na di makapag intay.

sir para di ka na lang ma-harass next time tumabi ka na lang sa middle lanes kung maluwag naman. sabi nga nung nabasa ko dati sa topgear.com.ph, "right of way is overrated".

[F-14]

Yup, unless you are presently in an overtaking mode even he flashes his light he must wait until you return to normal lane.

Be courteous in using the innerost lane or "overtaking lane", thats why it was called such!

i see... ito pala ang isa sa mga reason ng mga nag-i-stay sa passing/overtaking lane.

yung mga nagbabright sa likod mo, hindi ba kayo naiirita sa ganun?

sir, baka nakababad ka sa passing/overtaking lane.

Correct ka riyan bro.,- and, even if the vehicle is already at the speed limit......

Maraming gvngg*ng na katulad niyan dito sa SLEX.... Walang pakialam,- drive lang ng drive....

yung mga naka hazard sa tabi na mga sasakyan pag gabi tapos habang nasa tabi sila at naka hazard, naka ON pa yung headlights nila. ang masama pa sa iba, naka high beam. eh di masisilaw muna yung other driver na kasalubong hanggang malagpasan itong mga sasakyan na to diba.

common sense lang naman to pero dami pa ding gumagawa.

oo. nakaka irita nga ito, minsan pag di maiwasan o nakakabastos talaga kahit pinitikan na ng high beam, binababad ko, tas titigilan ko sa tapat at matinong sabi ng "lakas ng ilaw mo pre, sakit sa mata" pag umasta na galit sinasagot ko na "sinasabe ko lang, wag ka magalet", pag nagwala, either pinapatulan, o pinababayaan na lang.


speaking of babad sa nlex overtaking lane, nakakapikon mga ganon, kahit pa 100++ speed mo, wag ganun, kase minsan may mas mabilis sayo at di mo pwesto yan "overtaking lane nga eh"

last year, convoy namen to subic for a reunion, 7 rides nag overtake kame, then balik ulit sa lane dahil may hilux na babad mode sa overtaking lane, yun pala panay na flash at bipbip nya sa innova na cruising at 100 kmh. imagine, yung abala na nagawa nung innova na yun sa mga gusto lumusot? nakakairita diba? saka yung mga nangangarera sa nlex.


isa pa sa mga nakakainis.

mga naka HID na 8000k pa yata. low, hi and fogs. ano kayo? bulag? sobra naman kayo. pinitikan kayo ng hi dahil nasisilaw, tapos bababaran nyo ng ilaw na ubod ng sakit sa mata? ala sinko pa lang ng hapon, naka ilaw na kayo. ala syete na, naka ilaw pa, delayed ba sinag ng araw sa paningin nyo? ok lang sana kung isang beam lang eh, eh kung lahat naka HID, di na pwede pag bigyan.

[redeemed]

di kasi nila alam na ang passing/overtaking lane is para sa mga kagaya nito:



kahit ba 140KPH na takbo mo.

[renzo_d10]

Kaya natatawa ako sa leftmost lane hoggers na yan eh, para bang 1st time magdrive sa expressway?

Yung leftmost lane kasi is clearly the OVERTAKING lane and you should not be in it unless you are faster than everyone else.

Naalala ko dati I was speeding at around 150kph, so dun lang ako sa OVERTAKING lane. Pero once na may makita ako sa likod ko na palapit na, I automatically go back to the middle lane and let him pass.

Parang yung isang Honda City na nakita ko before, feel na feel niya na ang bilis niya at around 120kph. Tinutukan siya ng Ford Escape sa likod, nagfflash ng ilaw sabay busina ng sunod sunod. Nataranta siguro binilisan nung City at lumipat sa middle lane. Lapit nung Escape sa likod niya eh. :hysterical:
