Oo kung dun inatake. Hindi na malamang nakalabas.

As much as possible,avoid kennon road during rainy season as it has a very long history of mishaps,falling rocks etc.

Stepped on the gas pedal.

it is conceivable that from a stopped position (P?), he wanted D so he can go forward, but went to R instead, and the car started moving back,
and when he realized his mistake, panickedly pulled up to D, or wanted N but went over to D instead,
and instead of stepping on the break, he stepped on the gas...
so SUA!

i grieve for the motorcycle rider. so many ways to get bumped and still walk away from it... minalas lang talaga't na-fatal attraction siya.

Well, despite the convenience and ease of use of automatic transmissions, it also has its drawbacks in freak incidents such as this (mas madali rin magkamali).
Rather than accept responsibility for their error, its always easier to claim that the car went haywire though.

well,
... hard to blame the car if one can not reproduce the error, or prove that the error exists, if even remotely...

years ago, i made such error.
i thought i had placed my foot on the break, but pressing it only made the engine noisier. buti na lang, the AT shifted down. it gave me a few fractions of a second to...
fortunately, i suddenly remembered that second break pedal to the left of the break pedal i was stepping on.
buti na lang!

That's why those drivers who put their A/T cars in park while waiting at a stop is a pet peeve of mine.

IMO leaving it in drive and holding the brake removes all possibility of gear confusion (it's already in drive) or pedal confusion (you're already stepping on the brake).

what if the driver leaves it in D, presses on the break pedal, but is momentarily distracted by an insect or a child, and he un-intentionally lets go of the break pedal?
in my opinion, whether putting it in P, N, or D, there is always a potential disadvantage
leaving it in P or N, then engaging the handbreak, is probably the safer, albeit more annoying, choice.
heh heh.

me too. I can't understand why some people do that.

ever since I learned how to drive, I always put my gear to N and engage handbrake. but right now, thanks to auto brake hold, it became a little bit easier for me now.

haha same. when i see the reverse lights flash, i keep a farther distance in case they mistakenly shift to R when it's go. kung alam kong matagal ang stop (>1 min), I put it in N then handbrake. pero sometimes, kung more than 15 secs na nang naka stop sa gapang na traffic, i put it in N for safety lalo kung medyo ngawit na paa ko. 9 yrs na and wala namang issue sa tranny yung madalas na paglipat from D to N.

Ma-aalarm pa yung driver sa likod minsan kasi bigla iilaw yung reverse lights

Pag sobra heavy traffic and nangangalay na ako from stepping on the brake, I put in in neutral + handbrake. Nagkamali din ako minsan nung nag "go" bigla. Nag rev lang yung car but it didn't move dahil naka neutral pala

I don't know if automatics are actually better in really heavy, snail's pace traffic. Nakakangalay din.

Dyan maganda iyong EPB na may auto brake hold.

Eto yung navlog ni Autorandz na kadalasang dahilan ng pagkasira ng automatic transmission.

That guy has no credibility. Dami nyang "advice" na wala sa hulog. He's been called out by other mechanics... even his own guest mechanic of sorts, didn't agree with him.

Such BS as; Masisira daw TCM dahil "malilito" or due to electrical surge if you shift between N-D every time you stop.

I gather that he's good at repairing transmissions, but that said, I wouldn't take his "advice", however good-intentioned, as gospel.

Same sila ni Scotty Kilmer.... mas mataas lang batting average ni Scotty.

in my opinion,
in heavy traffic, AT is superior to MT, pagod-wise.
the former has only one foot and two pedals to worry about, while the latter has two feet and three pedals, not to mention the intensity of the stepping and the flicking strength of the hand and wrist.

Si authrhandz din nga biglang pumasok sa isip ko. Baka gumawa sya ng content regarding this accident dahil sa antipolo nangyari ito.
Para sa akin mas maayos sya mag advice kaysa kay wrar wrar ryan.

Napansin mo din pala boss.
Yung response lang ni wrar wrar tungkol dito is parang binigla nya kasi with some a little disrespect kay Autorandz at naivlog nya right away w/o seeing the explanation of autorandz on why it can destroy the transmission.
Lumalabas na siya pala mali kaya nag release ng follow-up vlog to clarify his stance regarding this topic.

Hindi ko napanood tong part na to, but indeed it didn't make sense.

Yung vlog niya lang explaining the movement of gear teeth during N and during D yung may sense sa explanation nya.
