accident DelaCosta-Ayala intersection

[margaux]

Saw this accident just now.....

Nagkabanggaan yung isang car and motorbike at the intersection of ayala and dela costa... Mukhang ok naman yung naka-motor kasi hinabol nagtaxi sya and hinabol yung car na nakabangga sa kanya...See, iniwan nya yung motorbike nya and bag at the middle of the intersection just to follow the car...... Umalis na kasi yung car eh I think hindi naman talaga nabangga yung naka-motor... I even saw him na umiwas eh kaya nag-slide yung motor nya.....tsk tsk...too many accidents happen talaga dito...

i'm not against motorbike riders or anything but in the recent months i'm finding them too aggressive when around the metro. on the roads they always seem too close(for comfort) to my vehicle only to be able to overtake one or two cars. Are they in that much of a hurry? A lot of these riders don't seem to mind road rules/signs. The only time i see a rider being reprimanded is for a lack of head protection or if the check point police are doing random checks.

difficulty with this situation is since they are in the two-wheeled vehicle it is more likely that they will sustain the injury if they come in contact with a car. so in cases that it's not the car driver's fault he has the burden of helping out the rider pa din(even if the rider was the "stupid" one).

Ipinagdadasal ko ang mga bikers na ganyan.


























"Taning kunin mo na sana silang mga pasaway sa kalsada"

Ako rin I'm not against motorbike riders.For me masyado silang aggressive sa pagmomotor madalas pa sa gitna sila ng dalawang sasakyan nagoovertake na parang gusto nilang maipit.Mahilig pang magdive sa pagovertake.Hindi ko maintindihan sa kanila bat sila ganun.Kaya ako nagbibigay na lang.
Meron din akong nakita isang pick up at isang motor nagkabanggaan sa intersection malapit sa festival mall.Nakita ko yung motor niya nasa ilalim.Nakita ko nagaargue sila.Sa tingin ko magleleft yung naka pick up humabol yung motor.

Hindi ko rin nilalahat ng MC riders, pero everyday for the past 2 years, I've noticed this (I work near the area kasi):

Sinarado ng MMDA with concrete blocks yung intersection ng Mindanao Ave & Quirino Highway, so vehicles have to make a U-turn dun sa legal U-turn located about 100 meters from the intersection. Actually may isa pang slot just 50 meters lang ang layo from the intersection, pero sinarahan din mg MMDA yun. Pero pilit pa rin ng pilit yung mga MC na dun tumawid sa illegal. So naglagay ang MMDA ng nylon ropes to prevent them from crossing. Aba, may pumutol the following day, kaya dun ulit sila dumadaan. Tapos, nilagyan ng steel bars, para di maputol. Lintek, a week after, may lumagari yata, kasi malinis yung putol, kaya malaya na naman silang tumatawid.

For the past 2 years, wala pa akong nakita na MC rider na dumaan sa legal U-turn slot, even if the distance is a mere 100 meters away. NOT A SINGLE ONE. Kaya may bottleneck sa intersection ng Mindanao Ave & Quirino Highway is because of these riders wanting to cross. Eh pedestrian lane dapat yun. Tapos kung mahagip mo, ikaw pa may kasalanan.

they come from all directions. they appear all of a sudden beside u.

one wrong twitch of the steering wheel matamaan mo na sila.

parang mga insects... buzzing all over the place...

we motorists need predictability from fellow motorists so we can avoid crashing into each other. those motorbikers are unpredictable. That's why many of them end up in the hospital or in the morgue.

some even have to be scraped off the pavement with a spatula.

it is really alarming since motorbikes can easily be purchased.... the problem i believe is the licensing procedure.... now imagine if these reckless people uses cars or trucks or buses or jeeps..... more chaos on the streets i guess.... better attack the problem with the lto rather than going around it....

[Syuryuken]

Yung ibang biker walang lisensiya pero antatapang sa daan

[vhenok]

Tsk tsk tsk....its the rider ang problem not the ride

OT: Nice to hear from you again Margaux

a friend of mine witnessed an accident involving a motorcycle a few weeks ago. the motorcycle had a passenger. it overtook my friend's car, then overtook again a trailer. the friend didn't knew what happened, but after a while, they just saw the motorcycle lying on the road, the driver's head was detached from the body and spinning on the road. the passenger, a lady, lies unconscious. both were wearing helmets.

madalas tayong makakita ng mga accidents involving motorcycles and how tragic it was for the riders, but still, these motorcycle riders still drive like hell.

ang dali kasi kumuha ng lisensia dito sa pinas lalo na kung sa province .kasama ko sa work di totally di talaga marunong mag drive ..may licensia tatlo pa restriction code nia (2,3 & 8) biniro ko nga may nakalimutan ang fixer nia ..
idagdag ang RC 1 (para sa motocycle)

sa LTO main naman may nakasabay din ako .nag practical exam sa motor.. di rin marunong mag alis sa pag ka center stand ng motor..tinuruan na lang ng guard after niya mag motor di naman alam kung paano gamitin uli ang stand..
ang ginawa hinintay na lang nia ang susunod na applicant para ibigay ang motor...take note nakapasa iyon sa exam at umuwi na may dala licensia

agreed with you, brod vhenok:

it is the RIDER that is the problem and not the ride.

thanks..
Oh yeah, another thing, dun din sa The Fort...particularly McKinley, madami ring accidents dun...I pity those girls I see there na umaangkas .... it should be a big no-no :nono:

[van_wilder]

yeah yun mga riders, everytime nagcounterflow sila iilawan ka pa... too bad di ko sila pinapalampas, head-on kung head-on... tatama naman sila sa bumper ko eh... ayun lagi silang iwas or kung hindi nahuhulugan nila yun car sa right nila... bwiset... kala mo kung sino...

[swimstroke]

Hehe, speaking of U-turn slots... Napapansin niyo ba na nauuso sa karamihan ng mga nakamotor ngayon yung lumulusot sa mga nakaharang na bato? Ikaw pa ang bubusinahan/iilawan kapag hindi mo sila prinenuhan. Hanep diba?

Hehe, sila naman ang umiilag parati...

sa place din namin(Malabon), nuknukan ng dami ng naka motor. Pag pumapasok ako sa morning at mejo traffic, etong mga nakamotor lalampasan ka lang at magsisi singit sa unahan mo. Kahit sa stoplight sa amin, bago mag GO, umaandar na mga motor, kala mo tuloy may karera. they're too aggressive when driving, laging nagmamadali, cguro ang thinking nila is okay lang sila umalis ng late sa bahay tutal naka motor sila, hindi sila matra trapik, in effect tayong mga naka 4-wheel ang nape perwisyo sa pagmamadali nila. In my opinion, kahit naka 2-wheel or 4-wheel ka pa, basta ganyan ang thinking mo sa driving, maaaksidente at maaaksidente ka. May mga motorcycle riders din nman akong nakikitang matino, pero konti lang sila talaga

[mazdamazda]

Sa subdivision namin... maraming naka motor dito ay puro overtake & counterflow ang gawain.

Dati may muntik na ako maka head-on... mag turn right ako malapit na sa amin... bigla ba naman may sumulpot na motor (going around the corner) using my lane! Amp!
