    grabe traffic ngayon nowadays lalo na kapag malapit na yun christmas season. kaya kapag ako na lang magisa, i just ride my motorcycle kahit medyo malayo yun pupuntahan, wag lang umulan. Konting ingat din ako.

    from one end of Annapolis Street, Greenhills (Club Filipino) to the other end of Annapolis Street, Greenhills (EDSA) : 2.5 hours.

    distance from one end to the other is about 1/2 km.

    That was the worst, but on a daily basis, the daily congestion there is caused by:

    My own worst was about 2 or 3 hours along edsa approaching megamall. It was one of the first octoberfests and I had no idea so many people were going to be there.

    re: santolan-edsa

    I think they're not allowed to move away from their assigned post, and since wala namang traffic sa edsa wala talaga syang gagawin.

    Limitation talaga yun ng mga minor roads (minor compared to edsa anyways). They get a lot less time on green than the major road, so if there's a lot of cars minsan hindi maiiiwasan magkaroon ng heavy traffic. Add to that all those intersections along santolan where both you and the opposite lane get a green light and some people have to turn left... Super hassle! Sometimes the green will have turned back to red and only one car in your lane gets through. For that stretch of road I really think they should give separate go signals for vehicles going straight and turning left.

    nung college days ko - yung umulan ng napakalakas tapos stranded na sa buong manila kasi sobrang baha sa altura/dapitan/ust lahat ng route papuntang qc/san juan/etc. hindi madaanan. from there umalis kami ng mama ko at kapatid ko ng 5:00pm then nakauwi kami almost 2:00am na ng madaling araw. almost 7 hrs kami sa kalsada at sa bus na kami natulog hehehe

    then nito nung bagyong milenyo - sa mercedes drive galing ako pinagbuhatan yung nagdadala na ng relief goods sa bicol, lahat ng army truck nakastambay dun sa c5 ayun umalis ako samen ng 6:00am hindi nako makagalaw sa mercedes ave. 8:00am na, tapos bumalik ako sa rosario to try ortigas lalo na kaya umuwi muna ako then pagbalik ko sa route ng floodway trapik pa rin 11:00am kaya un hindi nako pumasok hehehe

    daaammnn!! grabe ang mga experiences niyo sa pagiging stuck sa traffic ha!

    here in the US (San Francisco, Bay Area) na experience ko ma stuck in traffic for like 3 hrs! nangyari nung galing ako sa Daly City, pabalik na ng Vallejo (45 minute drive lang dapat.. ) then nung nasa San Francisco na, jusko.. may Road Work pala sa Bay Bridge!! kasi gabi na, around 12 midnight. grabe ang traffic, 3:30 na ako naka uwi sa bahay.

    also, meron naman dito.. nag traffic ng almost 10 hrs (traffic stretching for more than 15-20 miles!!) due to a multiple car collision.. 4 fatalities.. it was terrible.


    aite, peace.
