Too many PASAWAY motorcycle RIDERS on the street

[Leviticus]

How do we beef up or strengthen traffic enforcement when we can not even flag motorcycles (traffic offenders) to stop?
^^^ we always say we can, but how? We have "too much motorcycles on the street".

Take for example a few instances below, between cars and underbones:
- number coding to regulate traffic density; most often, riders get away with this.
- beating the red light; most often, riders get away with this.
- disregarding lane or road markers; most often, riders get away with this.
There are cars who get away with these too, but compare them to the number of underbones guilty of these every single day.


We are not going to get these unruly riders' attention if we can not apprehend a significant number of them. Do you get what i mean?
It is not even possible to apprehend more than 10% of them on our busy roads - ganito sila kadami.
A number of traffic apprehensions won't stop a hundred or more of these local unruly riders from doing what they do best, breaking the law.
Hindi lang siguro ako ang nakakita nito sa mga kalsada na hindi mapahinto ng traffic enforcers ang mga riders na parang kabute kung sumingit, sumulpot, at lumabag ng batas trapiko. Ang dami nila talaga.


Some thoughts on why banning underbones on EDSA and C5 won't hurt Pinoy's lives so much:

1. Banks and couriers have network of branches that allow them TO NOT REQUIRE the use of motorcycles on EDSA and C5. Vans and armoured cars are still in use, if you don't notice.
2. For the rest of the riders, one of the main reasons why we have viaducts on EDSA and C5 is for these viaducts to serve as alternatives; creating or keeping more routes for those not using EDSA and C5.
3. We can NOT expect that underbones will still proliferate and clog secondary or minor roads if ban is implemented. Pinoys are great fans of convenience, riders would most likely keep their motorcycles parked at home (or sell them) if they can't use them on EDSA and C5; and, will opt to alternatives like going back to using PUV's or car pools - it was not so long ago when riders use these. Yes, the number of riders using secondary and minor roads will be affected too.
4. We have more than enough PUV's (buses, jeepneys, and etc.).
Public transport franchises were not closely regulated (irresponsibly handled) resulting to excess (an issue still to be addressed by the government). This is one of the reasons why buses clog EDSA - we have more than enough. They take their time to get their buses filled up with commuters (THEY WAIT FOR PASSENGERS FOR TOO LONG); this is why they compete for passengers; this is also why they load and unload anywhere; nag-aagawan sila sa pasahero.
5. We will have significantly safer highways, streets, alleys, sidewalks, and even foot bridges (not the elevated ones on major roads). This alone IS ENOUGH to ban underbones on EDSA and C5.
6. Lesser deaths and injuries related to motorcycle accidents.
7. Relief from stress raised by worrying for your families and loved ones who ride motorcycles.
8. Lesser unreported and undocumented road mishaps.
9. There are more, but I will have to leave them to you guys - i've done my share.


Please don't dare raise implentation on regulations in US, Europe, Singapore, Subic, Clark, and provincial highways with the situation we, Pinoy's, have on EDSA and C5.


How do we beef up or strengthen traffic enforcement when we can not even flag motorcycles (traffic offenders) to stop?

Take for example a few instances below, between cars and underbones:
- number coding to regulate traffic density; most often, riders get away with this-- motorcycles are exempted from number coding
- beating the red light; most often, riders get away with this. most often? is this merely a personal assumption? what is your basis for this?
- disregarding lane or road markers; most often, riders get away with this. this is called lane splitting. currently there are no specific rules to apprehend lane splitting vehicles.
There are cars who get away with these too, but compare them to the number of underbones guilty of these every single day.

I find your question of "how to" amusing. let me ask you this: how often do you read or hear news reports about kotong law enforcement officers?

in a company setting, when an employee doesn't do his/her job they get the pink slip.

set an example. get rid of rotten eggs. doing their most basic job and duties would beef them up.

now with the rest of your post (obviously copy-paste to overwhelm), you're so drammatic.

let me ask you this one single question: have you ever traveled via a motorcycle in metro manila?

and by the way, I DO DARE raise implementation on regulations in Subic, Clark, and provincial highways with the situation on EDSA and C5.

what makes you guys different from the rest of the philippines when you, me, and any other motorist in this country carry a license released by ONE government office (namely the LTO)? are the laws different in EDSA and C5 compared to commonwealth avenue? in pasig? in pasay? in bulacan? cavite?

disregarding municipal ordinances ha.

nag-post ako ng reference/link, before, on lane splitting (i'm not just on lane splitting this time).
wag i-defend ang mali, please lang.

[eojlin]

LOL! May napanood ako na news last year na meron nagpplan na gawing batas yata na gawing organ donors lahat ng nagmomotor. Ano na kaya nangyari dun?

hehehe... na-offend mga riders. we still listen and consider them.

[Leviticus]

let's make it simple and not overly drammatic.

Problem --> Mga Pasaway na Riders/Drivers (which causes common accidents)

Solution -->

A. Salain ang pagbibigay ng lisensya. Dahil kapag walang lisensya ang isang hindi marunong at walang respeto sa daan... wala sila doon.

B. Di na kelangan ng bagong batas. Enough ang existing laws. Ang kulang ay proper implementation.

ewan ko....I've been saying this over and over again....but it seems some people just can't get it...

ang problema ay ang mga pasaway sa daan and not the vehicle itself. pasaway sa daan brought about by poor licensing and nonexistent enforcement.

The problem of accidents and road hazards does not entirely fall on the riders alone... Maintenance, enforcement, other road/vehicle users and pedestrians are equally responsible for what is going on...

If they want to put us on our lane, they should reduce the number of vehicles on the road drastically... Do you think the other vehicle owners will like this as much as the next guy? I sincerely doubt it...

umayos ako compared sa naghahalungkat about doggie parts. or do you need me to use simpler terms for you to comprehend?

shortage ng traffic enforcers does not mean we have to "make do" with what we already have.

you posted a reference/link before about lane splitting? so what?!? I can post countless references and links defending lane splitting.

nobody likes kotong cops, or cops for that matter. they have been stereotyped as incompetent and criminals themselves. we no longer respect them as it is perceived that they are the law breakers themselves. so what's the solution to our ailing law enforcers? me? I don't know since I'm not a police officer or affiliated in any law governing agency. the ball is in THEIR court. what I can do as an individual is to follow the rules as best as I can.

let's forget the first three sections you said above. i think you need to read back (and read back some more).
on the latter...
are you saying, you raised ideas that you yourself don't know? don't know if workable? don't know if possible?

it simply means I AM NOT IN AUTHORITY

paulit ulit ko na sinasabi but you can't comprehend: proper licensing and law enforcement. yan ang kailangan. how to go about it is NOT MY JOB.

is it your job?

the ball is in their (LEOs) court.

[chyll2]

Didn't know that a thread like this exist here.

Sabihin ko lang yung Rider's side ko. (I both drive and ride)

Wag sana kayo mag generalize, personally, galit rin ako(kami) sa irresponsible rider.

How do we beef up or strengthen traffic enforcement when we can not even flag motorcycles (traffic offenders) to stop?

I still agree na beef up or stregthening ng existing laws/regulation ang susi para mabawasan ang pasaway sa daan.

*LTO has been giving away too much license, and renewing motorcycles that are not road-worthy
*Traffic enforcers scares the violator to give them cheaper kotong as compare to the hassle of going to the municipality/LTO office where you commited the violations and paying higher fines (if people, riders and drivers, just experienced this, they will never want to do some violations, at least for the next few weeks/months)

And just to give you an idea, kaming mga riders eh madalas ma-flag down. In fact, I never got flag down in a checkpoint while driving a car. Every checkpoint kami yung hinaharang.

anyway, why ban underbone? eh marami rin naman types of MC (why so specific, why not ban all types of two-wheel vehicle). and why a certain part of the country(and not in the rest of the country)

and my last cent. when driving a car, I dont have a problem with rider's behavior since more or less, alam ko na may gagawin silang mali (defensive driving/riding)

the same rin yung approach ko when riding a motorcycle. Ilang beses na ako muntik bungguin ng PUV and private vehicle even though I am just running 50-60kph in those road that you mention while taking the center of a lane.

the thing is, both groups has it share of the bad eggs (yes papayag ako na mas maraming pasaway na riders) kaso wag nyo i-single out yun isa dahil mas marami sila. ang pasaway, kahit ano gamit nyan, pasaway pa rin.



and +1 ako na gawin organ donor yung mga motorcyclist, basta no cost added on our part.

^^^ alam na natin yan e... kahit bata isasagot satin na ganyan ang dapat gawin. pero ano...

"overly dramatic"... what a term.

you still owe me an apology.

an apology? for what? for me stating an opinion? this is starting to get childish. I wasn't aware that you needed an apology.

teka nga muna.. all you do is complain and whine and generalize but you also fail to present an acceptable solution.

your idea to ban underbones is FLIMSY and is unreasonable. try presenting that to the DOTC, tignan natin kung pakingan ka nila.

try to know when to appropriately use the words flimsy and unreasonable. (may dictionary o kaya google)
in this particular thread we're in, the idea of banning underbones on EDSA and C5 is reasonable.

it's flimsy.

you want to know why? that big list of yours is speculation at best. you specialize at generalizing but in fact, the incidents on your list are from PERSONAL experiences and the product of an over-active imagination. you cannot even quantify your (flimsy) reasons. as I said, try going to the DOTC and let's see if they will listen to you.

and most of all, that big list of yours covers too many issues, all of which can be remedied by PROPER LAW ENFORCEMENT.

---------------------
take for example this reason as being flimsy:

we have more than enough buses?!? what's your data on this? let me guess, you thought of this while sitting in traffic and noticing empty buses, am I right? fyi, even if traffic is not that heavy and even if passengers are plentiful, the buses will not travel faster. in fact, the buses will become SLOWER due to the multiple stops the bus needs to do to let out passengers.

hay, too easy. when was the last time you commuted in a bus?

-------------------------
eto pa:

We will have significantly safer highways, streets, alleys, sidewalks, and even foot bridges (not the elevated ones on major roads). This alone IS ENOUGH to ban underbones on EDSA and C5.-- again, what data did you base this on? panay ang THIS ALONE ka but you can't back it up. and safer from WHAT exactly?

Lesser deaths and injuries related to motorcycle accidents. this is a laughable reason. sure.. deaths and injuries will be less or NONEXISTENT because you banned it! but looking at the CURRENT data, did you know there are more accidents involving private vehicles compared to motorcycles?

eto link about cars and road accidents: http://article.wn.com/view/2010/12/08/Cars_still_figure_in_most_road_accidents_says_PNP/

see, even the PNP agrees with me based on their statistics and data.

yours on the other hand is FLIMSY.

----------
We can NOT expect that underbones will still proliferate and clog secondary or minor roads if ban is implemented. Pinoys are great fans of convenience, riders would most likely keep their motorcycles parked at home (or sell them) if they can't use them on EDSA and C5; and, will opt to alternatives like going back to using PUV's or car pools (this is not impossible) - it was not so long ago when riders use these. Yes, the number of riders using secondary and minor roads will be affected too.

I wonder how you came up with this reason. in order for a ban to be effective, there must be viable alternate routes, or else those affected by the ban will rise up. the possibility of riders selling their motorcycles is FLIMSY at best. keep motorcycles parked at home? are you trying to be comedic?

what with today's rising gas prices and traffic situation, I'm betting that more and more cagers will leave their cars at home and opt to ride a motorcycle.

going back to PUVs or car pools?!? hahahahaha! when was the last time you commuted via PUV or car pool? if you will answer that YOU DO CAR POOL, congratulations-- but not everyone share your ideals.

and buses?!? do you really want THIS to happen to you while you are riding a bus?





or worse:



again, when was the last time you commuted in a bus? riding a bus is MORE stressful. plenty of stress in a bus. you're putting your life in the hands of a sleep deprived driver that is paid on commission basis, and probably obtained his license via dubious means.

--------------
see? your list covers too many side-stories. if you want to discuss about them properly, let's do it piecemeal. one by one. if you want to discuss about banning of underbones then stick to THAT topic.

hehehe.. me needing to look up what flimsy and unreasonable means? these two words go together in this discussion with regards to your stance on banning of underbones. let me demonstrate with a simple sentence construction:

[SIZE="5"]Your reasons for banning underbones on EDSA and C5 is FLIMSY and UNREASONABLE.[/SIZE]

see? they flow together nicely

and finally, allow me to echo your last sentence:

There are more, but I will have to leave them to you guys - i've done my share.

[Leviticus]

there are too much motorcycles, but motorcycles do not take up too much space in traffic.

I can also say that traffic congestion is due to private cars. most of the time I see cars or SUVs with only a single passenger inside-- imagine the space that car occupies compared to a lone rider.

here's a nice comparative poster/picture:

Yes, I have had the chance to ride a motorcycle within metro manila and in our province...in manila...the driver wasn't me...was riding in the back...but what made the ride fun was that the guy who drove made me use a helment and shoulder/knee pads...just in case. And he drove very well...no zigzagging...easy ride lang and we got to our destination, in my opinion without pissing off other road users.

In other words, this particular MC driver was very disciplined and he also shares my sentiments about undisciplined MC riders and car drivers...any kind of drivers...as long as they are undisciplined on the road.

And about your statement...my suggestion or comment/s was not encompassing...it was meant to be selective...which I will again clarify should only be done with careful planning and study...again iho...I'm not arbitrarily saying that we ban MC on all roads...only on those that their HP isn't enough (<400cc MC) and the lanes on selected roads...if its not EDSA, then it could be somewhere else.

Lighten up...and again...let's just hear each other out and hope that our ideas and suggestions somehow end up as reality.

Safe driving everyone...so happens I witnessed a 1 car/2 taxi pile up along Buendia last night...so be careful all the time when your on/off the road.

Happy Weekend to all!!!

I sincerely admire the passion of both sides and the ideas that flowed in this forum/ discussion. However, we have a long way to go to solve our problems - particularly the ones discussed in this forum. Having said that dear moderator, May I request that this thread be closed so that the forumers involved can concentrate in finding a viable solution based on the exchange of ideas in this thread. Thank you very much.

Please don't dare raise implentation on regulations in US, Europe, Singapore, Subic, Clark, and provincial highways with the situation we, Pinoy's, have on EDSA and C5. Very different - not everything is applicable everywhere.


How do we beef up or strengthen traffic enforcement when we can not even flag motorcycles (traffic offenders) to stop?

Well said... malaki ba mawawala sa mga MC riders pag binan sila sa EDSA/C5 or in any HIGHWAY requiring minimum SAFE speed?! Kung maka-react kasi yung iba nakakagulat e. Parang laging naghahanap ng away... Parang sa forum pa lang alam mo na kung paano umasta sa kalsada. Hay...
