Pinaka delikado talaga yung mga TANGA na naniniwalang sila ang tama
This happened a while ago, I was turning left and 2 cars (2 lanes) stopped and gave way already, as I was crossing the road, a STUPID motorcycle went straight ahead (nanggaling siya sa may gilid/gutter side) I had to brake hard, bago ko pa mamura in my head, the IDIOT stops right in front of my car and shakes his head (AKO PA ANG MALI?) Kita na nga niya tumigil both lanes tumuloy pa siya. Ano kaya logic niya bakit naging mali ako?
Prior to that mainit na rin ulo ko kasi I was turning a corner and 2 kamotes, left and right of my car na sumabay sa turn ko. IDIOTS talaga!!! It's so stressful to drive here in the Philippines! I really can't own a gun because if I had one marami na kong napatay na kamote! Sometimes I wonder if there's anything wrong with me kasi if I see motorcycle accidents wala talaga akong sympathy.
meron pala nito thread na ito para sa mga pasaway na motor
iba na talaga perwisyo ng mga kamote

Unprotected left turn very common accident in the US, and our rules more or less follow theirs since our driving system is based on rules set up during US occupation.
Believe it or not you are most likely at fault if that ended up an accident. Just because two cars yielded to you doesn't mean the MC also has to, and as the left turner it's your responsibility to ensure the lane is clear before you proceed.
Kaya people say the best way to handle traffic is to take your turn and don't give up the right of way because that ends up in unpredictable situations.
Left Turn Accidents – Who’s at Fault? | Miami Car Injury Lawyers
Who Is at Fault in an Unprotected Left Turn Accident? | The Brown Firm - JDSupraFlorida Statute 316.122 says that folks turning left must yield the right of way to any vehicle approaching from the other direction. That means if you are turning left, you have to get out of the way of folks coming from the other direction. And, a driver turning left must also yield the right of way to drivers lawfully passing on their left in an intersection or otherwise close by. That means that if you are turning left and someone is passing you from behind, you cannot cut in front of them.
Folks who cause a left turn accident will say they are not at fault. They will say they that you were speeding. They will say that the left turn collision happened at an intersection where they did not have visibility. They will even say that their vision was blocked and that someone waived them through.
It’s one of a driver’s worst nightmares.
You’re approaching an intersection. The light is green, and you’re planning to continue straight through. But just before you get there, a car heading the opposite direction decides to make a left turn—right in front of you.
This scene plays out over and over again on Georgia’s roads. Intersections can be especially dangerous to navigate, and unprotected left turns are a frequent cause of collisions. In these cases, the left-hand turning driver is usually at fault.
I do drive in the US
I already passed the 2 stopped cars. And how could I see him e bumulaga siya from the gutter side of the street. Is he even supposed to be driving there??? Kung ganun kahit pala nakatawid na yung car to make a left pwede ako banggain ng motor or car out of spite and I'll still be at fault.

I'm just going to agree with you that driving here is a mess.
Our written rules are sometimes contradictory with established driving conventions.
As a left turner you're expected to yield to any and all traffic going straight through, but as you said you can't exactly see the MC coming from the bangketa.
On the rider's side naman, it's accepted convention that they have to split lanes. If they try to occupy the middle of a lane sila pa gitgitin ng cars, and especially jeeps.
So there's a direct clash between the accepted convention of MCs having to split lanes and you being able to determine when it's safe to go.
And if you couldn't see him, he probably couldn't see you either. Sure it's good defensive driving practice to slow down and prepare to yield, but far as he's concerned he's going straight and there are no lights, signs, or traffic enforcers telling him to stop...
madami naman na huhuli kung manonood ka sa balita at sa youtube/fb, pero pa ulit ulit lang, nka tsinelas, no helmet, substandard helmet, no license, no registration. magugulat ka pati pulis o mmda din no registration...
sa dami ng checkpoint eh nag rereklamo na nga ang mga riders na bakit sila lang ang tinitignan na imbes na mag pa salamat at may checkpoint at ma huhuli yung nakaw na motor dahil sa checkpoint.
para sa akin, ang init ng panahon sa pinas ang sanhi ng mali pag iisip ng mga riders, kapag trapik eh ang init ng singaw pa din ng makina ng motor.
sinisita nga for absence of documentation or requisite paraphernalia.
but i haven't seen an example of one getting a ticket for any generic "reckless driving".
it happens so fast, kasi,
by the time the TE turns his gaze, the deed has been done and past.
the only time they are caught red-handed, is when they figure in an accident. at which point, they either deny to death of any wrongdoing, or they scratch their head in feigned ignorance, or they are dead and beyond the justice system of mankind.
ang nakaka-inis pa,
sila na nga ang malinaw na may kasalanan,
huhulihin pa yung na-biktima nila.
(dahil daw may namatay at hindi puedeng arestuhin yung namatay, kahit na malinaw na siya ang may kasalanan.)
highs.
meron sa mga riders natin ang mahihirap lamang, kaya aasa pa ba tayo may disiplina sila? kase kung meron sila disiplina eh hindi sana sila nag hihirap. at yun na nga, kapos palad na eh wala pa disiplina at gagawa pa ng kalokohan na mas lalo mag babaon sa kanila ka hirapan sa buhay...

i wouldn't equate mahirap with lack of discipline.
marami akong kilalang kapos-palad, nguni at disente't disiplinado naman.
conversely,
mayroong hindi naman mahirap, may kaya o mayaman pa nga, nguni at barumbado.
so yes,
there are always exceptions, from both sides.
Yung iba nga dyan, naka Toyota RAV4 na yan ha. Di lang binunggo, tutuluyan pa sana yung nasagasaan.
Driver ata ng bus yun. Ganun daw mga bus kung makasagasa. Hehehe
