Too many PASAWAY motorcycle RIDERS on the street

[LexTer]

medyo dumadami nga talaga mga motorcycles ngaun, dami talaga magtitipid sa hirap ng buhay ngaun. mas ok pa nga kasi d na gano sumisikip sa kalsada at all times. be practical.

ako bumili motor mga 1 week na. nalulula ako pag 60kph na. ewan pano nagagawa nung iba yung sobrang bilis. pero tama nga. super tipid. 52km/liter. weeeeeee.

advantage pag kotse ka talaga at nag motor. aware ka sa dapat at di dapat gawin sa kalsada. napansin ko lang yung ibang naka kotse. tingin sa naka motor e para bang walang karapatan sa kalsada. nag me-mentain ka ng distance between you at yung sinusundan mo e bubusinahan ka. para bang sinasabi na hoy alis dyan! sarap sigawan na hoy mas maganda kotse ko sayo! lol

our of 4.3 million registered private vehicles last 2006, more than half ay motorcycles ... palaki pa ng palaki ang percentage ng growth.

So I think it is very clear where the motorcycle is going and it is here to stay. It has virtually become the "poor man's car" today. It's readily available with downpayments equal to only one celfone, the monthly balance are a cinch.

10-15 years ago this must have been the dream of traffic enforcers and planners to decongest our ever shrinking streets. With a motorbike you can save time, money, fuel and, with the right safety gear/attitude, the rider's life.

I believe that I'll never see an end to debates between the 2 and 4 wheeled vehicles. Both parties think that they are better, safer, etc. but in the end both have the same right to be on the road.

We cant blame them if many are now riding the motorcycle because:
1. Mura na ang motorsiklo at may easy installment plan pa. So everyone can easily afford getting one.
2. Masyadong trapik at maliliit ang mga kalsada natin.
3. Madali masyadong kumuha ng drivers license. Meron sa amin, putol ang 2 kamay pero nagdrdrive ng motor (No offense sa may kapansanan). Yung iba yata wala pang drivers license pero nagdrdrive na.
4. Mahal ang gasolina kayat nagmomotor ang ibang kasama natin.
5. Mas madaling lumusot lusot at makarating sa paroroonan.
6. Atbp.

We cant do anything about the rising motorcycle public, all we have to do is be careful with our fellow motorist. By the way, I too am a motorcyclist.

up ko lang. sa pagtaas at pagtaas ng gasolina ngayon, dami ngayon nagmomotor.

[meledson]

dati sa traffic light, ang sarap ang nasa harap. now ayaw ko na sa harap o pangalawa sa harap. daming motor na sumisigit. gasgas ang aabutin ko.

sa mahal ng gas ngayon, lumalabas na mas practical ang motor, kaso mababa ang safety margin nito.

[meateater]

Mahirap mag motor.

Kapag ikaw ang nakabangga, malaki chance na patay ka.
Kapag ikaw ang binangga malaking malaki chance na patay ka.

Pero desipite these, ang daming reckless na motorcycle drivers sa roads natin. Dami matatapang

Just awhile ago while waiting for the stoplight to turn green i suddenly heard a slight thud on my right side mirror and i realized that a motorcycle has hit it and he immediately sped away. (i later saw that there was a scratch on the side mirror housing). It caught me by surprise that i wasn't able to do anything.

Sirs, how would you react and what will you do if this happen to you?

Buy generic replacement side mirrors? Unless sulit i-claim sa warranty ang presyo ng side mirror, malabo ka na makahabol dun. For all you know, di din alam nung MC na sumabit siya.
