Bad motoring etiquette: What you hate the most.

[Macmon]

Just like to ask the rest of the tsikot members, What are the things that irritate you the most with drivers or cars with bad etiquette?

For those who are adding just copy and paste the itemized list.
Thanks

1. Not turning on the head lights when it is already dark. Especially the taxis, jeeps and motorcycles. - Nagtitipid ba sila sa bumbilya?
2. Brand new cars/SUV etc who don't know how to use their signal light.

mga nag counter flow pag traffic

[ghosthunter]

Cars driving in the middle of two lanes and going slow. You honk at them and as you overtake them, they give you the evil eye.

Motorcycles & scooters who have the habit of going to the front at intersections and then when the light turns green, can't even manage to speed up beyond 30 kph.

I noticed some motorists:
- turning without using the signal lights
- driving in the middle of the lane even if they see the car behind trying to overtake them
- doesn't yield the right of way on private roads

comments ni GH + shadow and kame

eto dadag ko: bikers na biglang oovertake sa KANAN(RIGHT) ng sasakyan..lalo na sa provinces, huminto na nga ang bus, oovertake sa kanan!

i hate people using the overtake lane(innermost) and drive as slow as a turtle! pag binusinahan at sinenyasan mo, ayaw tumabi!

people na madami pang orasyon bago umalis ng parking slot--hello sana ialis na muna nila sasakyan nila para makapasok na ung susunod na gagamit!

[blacksun25]

mga jeep at bus na nagaabang ng pasahero sa kalsada kahit nakakaabala na sa mga kasunod nila.

sobrang bwisit nga mga ganito...

parang utang na loob mo na aalis na sila, at tatagalan pa nila bago lumabas..

Oh yeah! Especially jeeps.

I also hate people who switch lanes often. Pag umandar yung kabilang linya sabay switch lanes. What does 5 second take ba? Nauna yung kabilang lane, relax gagalaw na din lane mo. Tapos sabay bumabagal na lane nya balik nanaman sa kabilang lane arghhhh!!!

Motorcycles that suddenly comes out of nowhere then cuts you abruptly.

[falken]

1. Drivers who block intersections.
2. Drivers whose headlights are always on high.
3. Drivers who honk their horns as soon as the light turns green.
4. Drivers who stop on the pedestrian lanes.

[roninblade]

- drivers who take up two lanes
- drivers who don't use signal lights
- slow drivers in the passing lane
- puv drivers in general hehehe

1.Drivers who tailgate with headlights on "highbeam". Di naman nag oovertake at visible naman ako in front, bakit kailangan na mag bright ng ilaw? Pinaoovertake ko yun mga yan tapos tututukan ko ng headlights ko, on ko pa foglights ko para magtanda. .

2.Yung mga ogag na ayaw magpa overtake kahit mabagal na takbo. Pag oovertake ka tsaka bibilisan.

3. Mga driver who stay on lane when turning left, kahit mahaba na nakapila sa likod, hintay pa rin sya ng libre sa kasalubong para makakaliwa. Bakit kaya di muna itabi, at mag left turn pag free na? Gusto pa nakaka abala. This one especially done by drivers up north.

4. Going full stop on provincial highway before turning right. pag nasa likod ka at mabilis takbo mo, wala ka lusot kasi kakanan, di mo magagamit shoulder - head on collision. Dami ganito sa provincial highways.

5. Yung mga nag park ng sasakyan na naka align na yung sasakyan sa isa sa mga lane ng parking.

3. Drivers who honk their horns as soon as the light turns green.

i read a coffee table book several years back and there's a term for the speed by which that action is used. if we have second, millisecond, nanosecond, etc. that, according to the book is called a "taxisecond".

[compact]

mga dura-sik na driver.

walang pinipili kung magpakawala ng dura.

(excuse me po)

[praetor91313]

Drivers who cut corners when turning. Dapat kasya kayo pareho kahit sabay pa kayo sa pag-turn on a two-way street, yung iba kukunin ang lane mo ayaw bumuwelo na lang.

Passengers of jeepneys who give you the evil eye dahil binubusinahan mo yung jeepney na nakaharang sa kalye.

Jeepney na humaharang sa bottle neck ng kalsada nakita ka na nga na padating, aandar talaga sila para humarang lang tapos di naman pala aandar talaga... magsasakay muna. Ano ba naman yung padaanin muna yung mga dadaaan tutal di pa naman pala sya aandar...

+1 on this. ang hirap hirap at saka ang tagal mong pumila tapos sisingitan ka lang. grrr...

-yung hindi gumagamit ng signal lights
-yung mga bumubusina pag green light na kasi gusto nila jack-rabbit ang acceleration mo
-yung mga bumubuntot sa ambulansiya para makadaan lang; may makita lang na paparating na ambulansiya or fire truck, biglang mag-hahazard na rin para kunyari escort
-yung mga ayaw magpagawa ng brake lights nila
-yung mga naka-bright kahit bumper-to-bumper na traffic

[alwayz_yummy]

naalala ko-- ung mga drivers na tatabi/papark, pero alanganin, tipong pagpapawisan ka ng malapot para makalusot...

*kung gusto nila makaabala, sana gitna nalang nila paa trapik kung trapik!


-yung mga sumasalubong sa yo sa 1-way streets..tapos ikaw pa paatrasin--katwiran nila, dyan lang sila at alam nilang 1 way!

*Slow moving vehicles partially occupying two lanes and wouldn't yield to anybody faster or overtaking from the back.

*Vehicles entering a one way street in the wrong direction. Unyielding and sometimes with their high beams and hazard lights on.

*Vehicles (esp taxi) who like to snake into my lane. I have a habit of leaving a car length or less of space in front, for momentum purposes.

*Vehicles who like to counterflow and when incoming traffic arrives, they suddenly force themselves back into the proper lane, at the annoyance of others religiously waiting in line.

*In lieu of the ban on siren/wang-wang in private vehicles, some drivers use their high beam and hazard lights and driving as if they suddenly attained special powers.

*Drivers who don't use their turn signals.

Police escorts of VIP's entering Malacanang via Ramon Magsaysay Blvd. they hog the middle of the streets just to let the convoy pass, they believe they own the roads not minding others that if they are in a rush to get to Malacanang, so are the other motorists whom they stop.
