    Anyone notice the signs they have for u-turns lately? One of them I pass by everyday near the EDSA-Timog intersection says,"U-turn LIKUAN YU (LEE KWAN YU). MMDA humor I guess. Pero parang ang babaw. What if some Singaporeans or other ASEAN expats see this sign? Revered ng mga Singaporeans ang former leader nila. Para tuloy ginagawa nating mga Pinoy na katatawanan. Kagagawan ng branch ng gobiyerno pa mandin, damay tayong lahat.

    I'd rather they set-up a U-turn sign 100-200 meters before the actual U-turn so the motorists who are not familiar with the area don't get confused and end up involved in an accident with those damn concrete barriers. Bakit nga ba hindi na lang gawing hard plastic barriers na may tubig sa loob? Hay...

    I agree with you on your idea about where to place the signs... unfortunately dealing with the MMDA with correct ideas is like dealing with contestants for Battle of the Brainless.

    it's not MMDA humor, don't you get it? it's an early campaigning again for the chairman, gusto niya i compare siya sa great Singapore leader...diba?

    kapal ng mukha noh! pwede pa siguro i compare siya kay Kim jong Il? ayaw niya mas sikat siya kasi nasa news nanaman ang North Korea ngayon....in fact kalat na nga yun pics niya na katulad sa North korean leader

    ito ayaw niya gamitin?

    ang tagal na nagpapapnasin na pwede siyang maging standard bearer ng LAKAS and yet inalis na siya sa list ng Presidentiable ng LAKAS...hehehe

    Kulang nga yata sa taurine yung mga traffic "geniuses" ng MMDA. Dito sa Commonwealth Avenue, nilagyan nila ng speed bumps at concrete roadblocks yung lane-approach mga 20 meters before the U-Turn slots. So yung mga motorista, forced ngayon na medyo pumihit pakanan ng konti, decreasing the over-all road space.
