    First instinct was to ran off which I did kasi there were two people approaching me from afar natakot ako baka kasi kamag anak nya o kakilala,, after 20minutes, me and my friends drove to the site ( using my friend's car) pero ni police cars or tao wala na, so I thought ok sya, we even checked the hospitals, walang nalagay na may naaksidente sa ganun lugar at that exact time.

    In the morning, we have it checked sa police na kilala namin at dun namin nalaman....I hid for a day and had my lawyer settled everything. It was the lowest moment of my life, i dint eat for 3days, walang tulog...

    The family decided to settle coz sobrang mahirap talga sila, the guy drove his uncle's bike na hindi naka register, so if ever they are going to file a case, dami ding loopholes coz wala syang license and it was an accident. Nagulat na lg ako na he was in my lane, yung parang he wanted to do a u turn, honestly, i can hardly remember what happened.

    Ok na ang lahat, they signed the waiver of desistance and withdrawal, they signed sa Hall of Justice here in bacolod, and received the settled amount.

    Ngayon problema ko na lg ang insurance ko. may od naman at tpl...kelangan mo talga lumagay sa mga buwisit na adjuster!

    yep it qualifies as hit and run. pero look at it this way the one driving the motorcycle shouldn't have been there, meaning walang aksidenteng mangyayari kung wala siya doon. Because di siya trained gumamit ng motorvehicle, kahit ano pang nangyari duon laging may kasalanan ang walang lisensiya they were not trained to operate a vehicle legally.

    Kung may kasalanan man siya duon ay iniwan niya at di niya tinulungan. I too was involved once with a motorcycle rider nasagi ko siya. Pero tinulungan ko dinala sa hospital buti na lang minor injuries lang at total yung motor niya. Gamit ko ba naman Land Cruiser Prado. After a day or two nagfile siya ng police report asking me for damages sabi ko sa pulis tinulungan ko naman siya at aksidente pero di ko na responsibilidad yung iba pa kasi he shouldn't be driving one naman dapat.

    Case closed kaagad and siya pa ang kinasuhan for driving without license. (Technically pag di mo dala license di ka pwede kasuhan without license kung hindi failure to bring license lang dapat). Which explains na walang aksidente kung wala siya duon kasi di dapat siya nagdridrive kung wala siyang license. If ever na di ko siya tinulungan or tinakbuhan ko siya in the scene of the accident Hit and Run naman kaso ko. Whether or not he has a drivers license.

    thanks for the explanation. just thought...lol...what if the unlicensed motorcyclist said he was just a pedestrian na nakaupo sa motor (moving nga lang)...diba kung pedestrian hit and run din? so technically what happened when the bacolod accident occured at tumakbo (kahit bumalik) ay hit and run. then would that be a crime? no matter what the circumstances?

    shouldnt the first instinct of any responsible driver be to see to it that the person hit is okay and authorities are informed?

    and what doesnt gel is claimed remorse yet irritation at something as paltry as insurance? tpl pa?

    when driving around the metro and we drop off to a bar, the most that i take is bottle under a full meal, if i didnt have a full meal prior, i take a lot of water while gulping down an alcohol, if tequila, 1 shot is enough, no more than that.

    i only drink much and get a bit tipsy when i know i am not driving, this happens on boracay, hotel parties or a friends place

    whatever the circumstance is, it is a crime... wag lang siguro pagbaba mo eh mga limang tao na may hawak hawak na sibak ay pasugod sa iyo. kahit bumalik ka pa it is still a hit and run. tama yung sinabi na ang first instinct ay bumaba at tignan ang nangyari sa nasagasaan.

    and with the pedestrian with moving vehicle.... para ba yang poste na biglang tumatawid hehehe...

    Yes pero minsan once or twice lang in my 28 days nasa pinas ako. The last was one week ago when I was invited sa party in Victoria's Place sa Pasig. Usually if I still need to drive, 6 bottles will be enough for me. Pansin ko sa sarili ko pag nakainom, much more focused ako sa pagdrive.

    Now i am not versed with the law but would a "hit and run" wherein the victim was killed constitute as involuntary manslaughter or murder?

    and if may limang naka hawak ng sibak at pasugod sa yo i suppose it could be self-preservation?

    eh paano kung poste na naka palda?

    Baka 'reckless imprudence resulting to homicide', since hindi siya premeditated, tapos dead on the spot yung biktima.

    Kung buhay pa yung victim pero namatay eventually as a result of being denied immediate medical care dahil tumakas yung suspect, it might be considered deliberate on the part of the guilty party, so 'murder' na ang tawag doon.

    Tama ba? :confused:
