For the Gram: The Rise of Motorcycle Narcissists | C! Magazine
I remember a time in Daang Hari after TS Cruz. There was this kamote banking into all the lanes, preventing me from overtaking. What I did was get closer to him & at the next bend, when he was going to bank, I blew my horn long. Ang sma ng tingin sakin, hehehe

that's "fine", if they cause the misfortune by themselves, without any "help" from anyone.
in such cases, they deserve everything that comes their way.
but if we willfully contribute to the cause of their misfortune,
then we are no better than them.
I’ve been thinking of going on a road trip to Nasugbu through Kaybiang tunnel but, with a road full of kamotes, that will just spoil the drive.

Since when did usual motorists force these camotes to an accident? Bus pa siguro. Most of us would veer away from such mishaps due to the hassle of repairs.
Worse of all, masagi or mabangga ka ng kamote tapos kasalanan mo pa. Even more so, wala pa helmet, lisensya, at rehistro yung kamote rider.
Thank goodness wala sa mga expressways tung mga kamote na to!

A friend who lives in the province once related this story to me. He was turning home to his village after midnight when he felt a nudge on his Hi ace. Since it is a dark road, he was scared that it could be a robbery attempt so, he hurried into his village. Once home, he checked the back & noticed a dent on the door. When he opened it, a tooth fell out. Worried, he went back & found a Kamote on the road. He brought the guy to the hospital to be treated then filed a report with the police. The kamote was drunk, driving without a license, didn’t have his lights on & didn’t even own the m/c. He also had the gall to file a hit & run case on my brother. After a few months of back & forth, my brother’s lawyer just told him to pay the Kamote P40k & forget about it. Kaya matapang mga kumag na yan.
When I lived in Bacoor, I’ve seen Kamotes sprawled on the road, without anyone assisting them for 4 consecutive weeks. I won’t be surprised if these were deliberate.

about a year ago,
there was this video on TV.
there was this segment of public road, where motorcyclists inexplicably kept slipping and falling as they passed over this segment of road.
finally, the mystery was solved.
it would appear, a religious procession had recently passed by this road. the participants were brandishinhg candles. the candle droppings on the road surface proved to be too slippery for the motorsiklistas.

Kamote rin pala yung lawyer ng Brother mo kasi wala sya magawa. I wouldn’t pay a peso if it were me. They should have told the court that your Brother had the kind heart to bring the drunk rider to the hospital and it was not his fault the idiot ran into him. That kamote rider practically waived all his rights on the road - drunk, no license, no lights, and not riding his vehicle. He should be thankful to your brother.

I doubt such kamote would want a long and dragging fight in court. Baka wala pambayad sa abogado.
I once heard this from an officemate before. A kamote beat the red light and rammed his Civic’s rear right door in ERod corner Araneta. He brought the rider to the hospital and paid for the bills. A few weeks later, the rider sought an audience seeking money for damages. My officemate brought his lawyer and they said that the rider blatantly didn’t follow traffic regulations and he was at fault. My officemate said he can pay for the damages of the motorcycle but the rider has to pay him for the damage to his car, the hospital bills, and the fee of his lawyer. The rider dropped all his claims. Wala pala pambayad, kapal ng mukha!

Happened to me also, idiot backed up sa car ko (it was a car also) He did NOT have a license and it was not his car. Pati yung pagkaka bangga, talong talo sila kasi rear door ko tama, sa kanila rear bumper! Bumusina ako because I saw him backing up na pero ENGOT. The asshole had the gall to lie pa sa police station that it was my fault. I wanted to punch him because I hate liars! Anyway, ganun na rin, sabi ng exKuya ko, my then BF and his lawyer barkada to let it go kasi mas hassle pa maghabol, and yes lawyers are extremely expensive, acceptance fee, consultation at appearance. Hindi naman lahat can afford to have a lawyer on retainer that they can call every time may legal issueKaya malalakas loob ng mga kamote kasi alam nila bihira ang mag pursue ng case

it happened to me, also.
the tsuper didn't have money to buy me a jollibee dinner, much more pay for my replacement bumper, grille, fender, headlight, and labor & paint job, even if i chopped him to bits. we really wanted him to visit his ancestors then and there. at least, that would have given us some sort of pretzelized satisfaction.

I am not privy to all the details to explain to you guys the reason for it but, he didn’t want to settle first, out of principle. The case was filed in QC so, imagine how taxing & expensive that is: lost income, lawyers expense, travel expense etc... & security had he won (most likely) kasi baka balikan sya. So, P40k is really cheap for my bro but a fortune for a kamote. Akala ng engot nanalo sya sa lotto.

Kung ako yan, I would just let him lie all he want. Baliktarin pa nya buong mundo pagsisinungaling nya. Pag tapos na sya at nakuha na ng police ang side nya, tsaka ko ireretrieve ang footage ng dash cam ko. Di ko na need siguro mag-explain kung anong nangyari. Yung footage na ang mag-eexplain para sakin.
Naisip ko yun kasi nakita ko sa ibang videos, once nagkasagutan na at nagpapasahan na ng sisi, sinasabi agad ng isa na may dashcam sya at recorded ang nangyari. So wala na chance magsinungaling yung isa.
Pero I hope and pray na di ko kaharapin yung ganung scenario ever.![]()
Ang nakakainit talaga ng ulo yung mga sinungaling. The least they can do is apologize. Pero sa case ko since inatrasan ako at rear door ang tama, wala din mahahagip dash cam, saka wala rin CCTV sa area
Pero it's true everyone should have a dash cam, I should really get one

Nung una ko ma experience yan hindi ako makapaniwala. 1st time someone lying straight to my face sa isang pangyayaring kagaganap lang.
A guy backed up into me to swerve kasi may bus sa harap nya. Lagalag rear bumper nya wala naman sira harap ko. Pagbaba namin eh binunggo ko daw sya. I just can't believe what I'm hearing.
After that bumili na ko ng dashcam. 1st time ko maka encounter na ganun ka blatant mag sinungaling.
