    Siya lang.

    Apparently he was drunk and took the off-ramp kaya naka-counterflow.

    Here's the car of the driver with the dashcam. I guess matibay rin ang Fiesta at he got out safe.





    Don't drink and drive!

    Ilan stars ba yan sa NCAP? Tibay.

    Malamang nasa 50kph pa siya at impact? Mukhang mabilis pa rin eh.

    Bilib rin ako sa Fiesta. Matibay. Ano kaya nanyari doon sa kabila. Was it an Altis?

    I think he was driving a bit fast. When I started to look a the group of cars up ahead, I would lift the throttle na and start to slow down but I guess he kept on going. Then again, you wouldn't be expecting this on the skyway.

    malamang gusto rin nya sanang iwasan yung oncoming kup*l.
    kaso may starex (ata) sa kanan nya.

    no choice na, kaya di na nakaiwas........

    It's a Mazda2, not a Fiesta.

    And the counterflowing car was an Altis.

    Closing speed was well above 100 km/h. The counterflowing driver was speeding.

    Dapat na talaga i-reform ang traffic laws. Reckless endangerment should be a non-bailable offense pending investigation and filing of official charges.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    ^ Woops, I stand corrected.

    Mazda 2 pala. Couldn't distinguish, pareho sila ng body halos...

    100kph, Niky? So can we say that he's just lucky to get out alive or it's just the car that saved him from death? Frankly pag sa Vios ko nangyari yan I think I'll have a one in a million chance to get out with just a minor bruise.

    Yep it is indeed a Mazda 2. Galing! Na-deploy yun airbags kaya taas ng survival percentage nito.

    if you count how many seconds nung umiwas yung nasa harap nya, thats the time he saw na may kasalubong sya, i think thats less than 3 seconds, and at that speed, less than 3 seconds reaction time wouldnt be enough.

    Yes true. I've noted the group of cars in front, not yet swerving to the side, around 0:26. Around this time I would've lifted the throttle. Problem is the Starex on the right played a factor. Not sure if I would be able to brake and swerve to the right behind the Starex. I wonder if the Starex had some damages as well.

    medyo matangkad yung starex. kaya palagay ko, mas mauuna nya mapapansin yung incoming altis kesa sa mga sedan na tulad ng mazda 2 kahit na hindi level yung ground (which is evident in the video). kumbaga he has a second or split second more to react than the shorter cars around him. nagtaka lang ako na parang hindi napansin nung starex yung side mirror nya sa kaliwa. kadalasan kasi sa driver eh malikot ang mata and vigilant to their surroundings.

    The impact is so strong/the material used in the road is so soft that the tire buried itself into it.

    Or did that part of the wheel/tire just disintegrate?

    um naflat lang ata sir, kaya mukhang bumaon sa kalsada.

    Looks like asphalt, could have gotten scraped when other metal parts struck it

    Look like sawdust/sand to absorb the brake/hydralic fluids from the wreck...
