    The second provision needs rephrasing. Swerving should be defined as reckless lane-changing. If you change lanes carefully and use your signal lights in the process, then that's not swerving, which makes the maneuver legal.

    Running away is the best weapon against the sky-blue guys. If there's no traffic, they wouldn't bother chasing you, even if they have a motorcycle. My father's logic behind that is because there's always more fish to catch in a certain area, they'd always wait there.

    there is one case where swerving is a legit violation... if you change lanes where there are solid white lane markers. avoid like the plague, particularly in makati.

    Technically, any sudden lane change is swerving, but in practice, the MMDA should only catch you for suddenly changing two or three lanes at once, without signalling.

    If you change two lanes in stages... signal, change, signal, change... they should not catch you.

    But if you change lanes from a lane that's suddenly become a (%&$) u-turn lane, but you signal and move only one lane aside... they should not be able to rip you a new one for that violation.

    There should be a 30-second rule for yellow-lane violations, and it's not illegal if you're going to turn. The MMDA "kotong point" just before Ortigas is illegal... they should be watching for buses that stop in the middle of EDSA (which is illegal) on the other side of the fence... they shouldn't be standing on the corner harrassing motorists trying to get around said buses.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Though this one is a bad and Tsikot non-recommended tip, but it helps a lot especially those "Beating the Red Light" boys. If you think you can outrun them, do it!

In some cases I just speed up and pretend to hit them if they mess with me.


    Im sorry to say this but these guys never really earned my respect.
    Just be careful if they have bikes, baka habulin ka.

    Yung MMDA sa may edsa cubao corner aurora blvd ganyan.

    Pag nasa edsa ka:

    1. Pag nasa yellow lane ka papuntang aurora at kakanan ka. Huli ka kasi yellow lane violation.

    2. Pag iniwasan mo naman ang yellow lane at kumanan ka papuntang aurora, swerving ka.

    If any of these abuses seem familiar to you, Mr. Pagulayan has asked that you call either the MMDA hotline (136) or call the METRO BASE at 0920 9389861 or 0920 9389875 and ask for an Inspectorate. They will send inspectors to the place where these MMDA officers are extorting, even while you are arguing out of your apprehension.
    good one. ano pa ba ibang numbers na dapat nating isave sa ating mobile phone? sana pati yung sa mapsa meron. mas garapal ang mga yellow boys dito sa makati kesa sa mmda
