Woman smashes bus door with baseball bat in Pasay road rage incident | GMA News Online

The incident reportedly stemmed from a heated exchange between the drivers of a spot utility vehicle and a Jell Transport bus.

I travel C5-Service Rd-EDSA-Roxas to work. Most annoying part of the trip are those Service Road Jeepneys and EDSA-Pasay buses...

I'm upgrading all our vehicle's horns to louder ones once the EDSA Rehabilitation starts!

i commiserate with the lady batter.
naranasan kunarin ang bus bullying.

yes! the bus driver swerved that near!

You always struck me as being mild mannered. I guess everyone has their limits. Ha ha.

I find south plying provincial aircon bus drivers to be more well road mannered than city bus drivers.

Lalo na nung wala pang segregated bus lanes on EDSA... one AM radio commentator was quoted "parang mga dimunyo magmaneho mga yan..."

Sila ba yung madalas bumiyahe sa maharlika hwy to/from bicol?

Dami ring walang-hiyang humahataw na private car drivers diyan sa camsur bandang pili lol.

Yup, biyaheng bicol.
May balasubas din, mga roro buses and ordinary buses.

Maybe after Pili, before Pili garbe traffic dyan, I dont pass Pili anymore I pass thru the GMA highway.
Understantable naman bakit hataw sila after Pili, if your driving from Manila, by the time you reach Pili you are already driving more than 10 hours (depende sa traffic).

Ang pinaka delikado na stretch is Libmanan, at Polangui.

Oo nga, at least 10 o minsan 8/9 hrs papuntang naga at pili galing mm.

Pero maiba lang onte. May nagsabi rito dati na kaya raw 5 hours to naga from manila? How true is it? Eh hanggang batangas lang slex at star, baku-bakong mga daan ang nat'l. hwy (esp. quezon to andaya) tapos walang kamatayang road works lol. Pickup daw dala.

5 hours to Naga from MM ?, a decade ago totoo yan.
In the 2010sssh to 2017, My Bicol trips starts at 9pm from Bulacan (Meyc-Marilao) I will arrive Legaspi City by 5-6 AM with 3 stop overs.
Yup Bulacan to Legaspi kaya ng 8-9 hours, thats a little over 5 hours to Naga City.
My fastest travel time along Andaya/Quirino highway to sipocot is 50 minutes.
Asphalted ang whole portion ng Andaya Highways sa Camsur side, kayang kaya mag 150 kph. Yung Camnorte portion naman ay cemented may mga re-blocking din noon.
Now Andaya/Quirino highway to Sipocot swerte na makuha ng 2 hours, bumilis naman Sipocot to Milaor , dahil lumapad ang daan, pero Milaor to Naga City mas grabe na traffic. Kaya from Milaor turn right na ako sa GMA highway up to Nabua.

Compare mo 8-9 hours travel time a decade ago sa 17 hours today, road rage is real ! lol

Ah mas maayos ba yung maharlika at andaya hwy dati? Sayang di namin naabutan haha. 2021 kami nagpunta back then which was ung first time tapos may covid pa. Puros north lang kasi like baguio, l.u. tsaka ilocos bago nun. How bout ung traffic? Mas ok din nung dati? Kahit may skyway na ngayon pag galing pa northern ncr o bulacan eh wala din pala haha.

Also kitang kita din yung road widening na ginawa sa ibang portions ng bicol gamit ang history sa street view ng google maps. Kaya siguro mas marami na rin nagpupunta since di na makipot yung daan. Pero if ever mapuntahan ulet, usto ko makita dun yung bagong 7-eleven near sa camalig bypass road na may viewing ng mayon. May pagka-lawson/fuji vibes daw hehe.

Is giving the finger illegal?

there's a "hearing," he can defend himself there.

Nakaka asar yung mga rider. Why do they have to stop and "defend"/gang up every time there in an incident with another rider? We don't see cars doing that.

Yeah. And his license is already suspended even before the hearing.

mahirap magparada ng kotse sa gitna o sa tabi ng matrabahong daan, lest they cause traffic.
'cyclists can park their two-wheelers anywhere and don't care.

i already lost count of the number of third digit signs i received, when i inform them what i think of their misdeeds using my horn.

Arguably, flipping the bird falls under freedom of expression. I don't think there's strong legal basis that it in itself is reckless driving.... unless there was actual reckless driving involved.

My thoughts exactly. This is getting out of hand.

You were right in one of your posts about the current DOTr secretary giving arbitrary penalties.
