Ortigas Ave, near Medical City

[Emong3]

If you happen to pass by Ortigas ave, coming from rosario, paglampas lang ng stoplight sa green meadows may dalawang MMDA na nagtatago sa ilalim ng overpass.



Yung stop light dito parang pre programmed na sandali lang yellow light, and if you are too fast to stop, sigurado beating the red light ang case mo sabay hingi ng pera ng mga mokong na to.

There are times na nababarahan ng rosario bound vehcles yung kabilang side and since nabarahan na yung incoming trafic na naka go, akala mo go na din kayo. Imbis na ayusin ang traffic nandyan lang ang mga yan nag aabang ng maiinip sa stop light sabay huli.

Muntik na din ako dito pero nung nakita nila na kumanana ko sa medical city di na ako hinabol...

[theveed]

Most of the time hinuhuli nila mga nagUu-turn dyan sa spot na yan which is bawal...

[mazdamazda]

I pass by that way regularly for the past 5 years and I don't have a problem with the stoplight there....

[Bogeyman]

Wala din naman akong nae-encounter na problema diyan, especially regarding the stoplight. Then again, madalas sa Julia Vargas ang daan ko papuntang Ortigas.

[j_avonni]

Not my regular way. Just in case na madaan ako dyan, I'd be extra careful.

This is the problem here when going to Medical City, if you are on an emergency, you would definitely take the chance of a U turn on that stoplight but then again it is prohibited so you would still go straight up to use the U turn under the flyover of C5 (ang layooo!) , then if you go Valle Verde bawal din U turn... , haaay yung emergency mo sana umabot pa, then heto pa tong mga pulis sa ilalim ng tulay (overpass)??? D*mn

Kapag emergency cases, ok lang mag U-Turn along that intersection.

Valle Verde allows u-turn in front of the 2nd gate from the intersection (just read the signs).

Siguro nga since nakita nya ako kumanan papunta medical city di na siya tumuloy on his motorcycle na private naman. The stoplight saglit lang mag yellow, red agad so if ma chempuhan ka mga 5 meters from the line and you are driving around 60 kph mejo imposible na maka stop unless hard braking talaga. Then may nag aabang sa ilalim ng overpass na bigla susulpot.

Sabi ng mga driver ng taxi minsan kahit 2AM nandyan pa rin sila. Tyaga.

[Emong3]

Grabe naman ang tiyaga! pag tanghali may lusot dahil mainit ang araw pero at night... :o

[theveed]

Hmm, I've been using that road since the early 90's never pa naman ako nagkaproblem sa stoplight na yan... The ones crossing EDSA bothers me more, quick yellows + wide stretch of road to cover pa...

Kung masunurin mga driver, edi sana kahit umaga wala mga MMDA dyan hehe. Sana nga manghuli din sila sa may harap ng Autocamp, dami nagUUturn dyan sa harap ng Meralco/Autocamp.

Nakikita ko rin iyan, imbis na mag-mando ng traffic nagtatago sa ilalim ng overpass. Yung motor tinatago din nila. Ayos talaga sa style. Nagtago lang sa lilim may dilehensiya na.

[oldblue]

dumidilihensya talaga mga yan, i've seen them many times na pumapara ng sasakyan coming from rosario, valle verde. and also dun din sa next stoplight in front of Meralco, madilihensya din.

pero usually mga bagong salta nahuhuli nila

[Horsepower]

Thanks for the heads-up. Medyo weird nga yung stoplight na yan kaya alalay ako.

In light traffic, those light-blue guys won't come after you because of a 'violation' you're running away from. Even if they had a motorcycle, they'd deem it useless to follow you. If one of them rides the motorbike and chases you without a helmet, then he has his own violation, a real one this time. If he puts on a helmet, the time it will take to do that and start the motorcycle would be enough for you to come loose. My father said they'd rather wait there since there are dweebs who stop anyway even if they have all the means to escape. One more thing, the road's uphill, so all the more you can get away.
