Selective treatment of traffic rules.

opo, nakakainis sa area na yan. lalo na pag nandyan yung mga school bus/service gamit na yung long stretch facing Waltermart

medyo OT, pero nightmare na din recently dun sa ilalim ng magallanes bridge, to go to edsa extension (evangelista, malibay, pasay rtd). walang pulis, meron hukay hukay, sangkatutak na jeep wala pakundangan sa pagsakay/pagbaba ng pasahero. may curve naman dun for jeepeneys to drop/pick up passengers pero HINDI ginagamit. nasabi ko na ba, WALA DIN TRAFFIC ENFORCER! grrr ...

that intersection has always been like that eversince the skyway was built. I remember my family used to visit kamayan resto along pasay rd. hundreds of years ago and the roads were wider then going towards the superhighway. Well aside from the bottlenecking condition, it has given birth to more problems like puv's habit of loading and unloading, horrendous road condition, occassional road construction, floods are deeper, etc.

head towards the Arnaiz side parking entrance of Waltermart during rush hours and you'll have quite a bit of an adventure. your usual road laws posted or unposted are inapplicable on that intersection. therefore to maintain a smooth flow when authorities aren't present (rarely they are) is to just proceed with caution and stay within your lane. gridlock often occur when vehicles change lanes during a turn. from my experience, stopping bec of the red light often holds up the traffic rearwards as far as the intersection leading towards plaza fair's parking lot. I hate this style but until them traffic boys around the area do their fre*kin job, it's better this way under these circumstances. where's superman when you need him...

Damn! Nahuli ako dyan last year and it was a Sunday at that. Was approaching that intersection coming from Pasong Tamo then I saw the light is red (stop). So naturally I stopped. But then sobrang tagal na nakastop kaya I made a left turn na to Pasay Road. Meron palang MAPSA dun (actually di sila MAPSA, naka gray sila) na nag-aabang. I really do believe this intersection is a huli-trap talaga. :mad: :mad: :mad:

Pag ang stop light ay hindi right arrow, at walang sign na stop on red signal, puwedeng mag right basta full stop muna, check for pedestrians and those with right of way (naka-go sa lane nila). Ilang beses na akong nakipag-talo sa humuli sa akin.

And as it turns out, thanks to the Internet, it is clearly defined in http://www.lto.gov.ph/traffic1.html.

haaaayy, talagang nakakainit ng ulo ang lugar na ito. Nandyan pa yung mag PUJs na nag counter flow sa lane ng galing buendia kaya isang lane na lang ung papunta ng buendia area. Masusunod ka pa sa nga ogags na puj na ang tagal huminto sa harap ng Makati Cinema Square

Yeh, matagal yung stop light pero inantay ko talaga kasi umuulan baka kung anong mangyari sakin pag nag go ako kahit hindi pa go. So si bumbay nag overtake, binaba niya yung window niya, dumikit sa right side ng car ko tapos nagalit sakin. Sabi niya " can you not move?! there are no cars, the road is free!! tapos sabay nag gesture siya "use your brain". Ah, pinatulan ko. Minura ko siya sabi ko a$%h0IIe! hahahahahaha, Ayun, nag U-turn siya pero nakastop pa rin ako nun kasi red pa. How i wish na nabangga siya

Bumbay kasi eh! Ibang klase rin sila magmaneho. Punta ka sa YouTube search mo yung Clarkson Motoring India ang gulo rin dun. Sana nung tinuro niya yung head niya (like "use your brain") nag gesture ka na "mabaho"
