    Looks like one of those "VIP" cars that use the bus lane. Mabilis takbo and the left lane narrows and kinks a bit to the right after exiting the divided area beneath the flyover.
    and they still think those concrete barriers are not traffic hazards?

    mukhang nagkamali driver, instead of just getting a ticket lang for passing thru the bus lane eh mas malaki pa babayaran nya.
    damage to property (both the car and barrier) eh may ticket pa yan for sure.
    nataranta sa ambulance sa likod malamang

    Yung part kasi na yan ng bus lane eh dinadaanan na ng mga private vehicles talaga. Di ko pa natyempohan na may nahuling private na dumaan dyan.

    BTW, i find this bus lane effective.. dapat talaga naka kulong yung bus dyan.. kasi nung nasa kanan sila, hilig pa din lumusot sa private lane.. pero sana dagdagan yung byahe at tuloy tuloy lang takbo ng bus.. kasi minsan nakikita ko, nag terminal na naman sila dyan eh.. dapat may oras ang alis at dating para ma disiplina din ang pinoy..

    sa ibang bansa dapat early or on time ka sa bus stop otherwise intay ka sa next

    sa merging end sila hinuhuli bro, minsan makikita mo sa bus stop mismo dahil may bantay din doon

    partially agree bro, only because our infra was not made for it e.g. masikip yun lanes

    LOOK: Marikina Filpino-Chinese Fire Brigade conducted a flushing operation along Marcos Highway, part of Barangay San Roque, Marikina City early in the morning to clean the oil that leaked from the accident sports car. | Facebook



    Thoughts:
    1) Looks like Marcos Highway near Sta Lucia Mall last night. I guess humahataw coz no traffic dahil ECQ?
    2) That's gotta HURT! whatever speed he was doing to zero in no distance at all coz he crashed into the largely immovable poste. Serious seatbelt burns plus a punch in the face from the airbag.
    3) Nice photo! Photoshop out the guys (and the damage to the boxster) and it's such an interesting shot with all sorts of lights at play. May DC5 pa in front of the 7-11 in the background.

    More photos (and discussion) in the link.

    the oil has to have come from somewhere...

    baka write-off as total loss...

    i am curious,
    if insurance writes it off as total loss, and settles with the owner,
    does insurance get to keep the car, to do with it as it wishes?

    Porsches have radiators, power steering and (not sure if all models) oil coolers up front.

    That spilled "oil" is probably a mix of coolant, ATF, and possibly engine oil, but engine and gearbox itself should be relatively untouched at the back.

    If the owner keeps it I think it should be fixable (although expensive). There's a shop in Japan that swapped a full 911 GT3 front-end onto a Cayman (basically everything front of the firewall changed to GT3).

    yes. as far as i know they get to keep the car. as for their wishes i think they sell them for loss recovery as is or for parts as a lot. but in cases where nothing is salvageable i find it highly unlikely that they will spend more in order to restore what is a write off already.

    Yes some that are a write off are fixed and resold.
    i know someone who works with a local insurance company.
    He buys the cars and he has a repair shop that fixed and then sells it for a much discounted rate.
    You can usually ask him ano yung sira/banga. inaamin naman niya but these cars are already prone to future problems that may have been due to the accidents.

    Yung officemate ko declared total loss yung kotse nya 10 months to car ownership. Nabangga harap at likod sa cavitex.

    Insurance paid him and got the car.

    About a year later, may tumatawag sa kanya. New owner daw ng kotse nya. Sariwang sariwa daw kotse nya at ambaba ng mileage. Hinihingi yung plate number sa kanya.

    Sinagot nya na lang yung tumawag na wala sa kanya plaka kasi total wreck yan at binili na ng insurance. Sana disclosed ng insurance at nung pinagbilhan na total wreck yun.

    Wala kasi tayong 'salvage' category sa car titles/registration natin, unlike on other countries where a car previously written off by insurance is required by law to have the event recorded in the title.


    OTOH US insurance will often declare write-off for levels of damage that to us are still repairable, so it's not uncommon to have "good" cars that will have a salvage title.

    Taas kasi ng labor cost sa kanila so oftentimes a seemingly small amount of damage will get a car written off. Not rare for enthusiast owners to buy back their cars to DIY repair after receiving their pay-out.

    When I lived in Chicago, I needed a cheap and reliable ride. I bought an old 97 Expedition 4x4 for a low price. Later did i know that the car had a salvaged tag on it. I didn’t mind as the vehicle proved to be a worthy ride even very useful during winters.

    but we do have salvaged-from-write-offs,
    being sold as "barely-used",
    supported by absurd low-odometer readings...
    heh heh.

    my car was sandwiched in a vehicular accident, some time ago. both front and rear were damaged.
    it wasn't as bad as it initially looked.
    i had it repaired, replacing panels instead of pukpok-ing them. marami talagang piyesa ang toyota.
    i still drive it on a daily basis.
    hey! i can even adjust the headlights as like new, and the hatch opens and closes without fanfare.
