my brod in law (german) when he started driving in the phils was the typical european type i.e. law abiding, no sounding of horns, and obsrves the right of way... but it is not applicable here with our drivers in fact his cars are always in and out of the casa because of collisions as he doesn't give in to those mahilig sumingit and insist of his right of way. fortunately ala pa namang gabe aksidente at lagi namang collect sa insurance kaya lang suki na siya ng dealer.

kaya lang maybe because of our driving conditions sa 'pinas my brother in law had changed his passive driving and become more aggresive... now pag nahuli ng mmda for small violation like swerving "pagbukas ng window ngiti lang siya" tapos dahil foreigner inglis naman yung officer ng sir! you are swerving sir!!! pero filipino culture kaya "no repeet next time"...
