    And the quality of the asphalt is a suspect. Just look at that portion of C5 designated as Truck Lane right after the slex exit. Parang umaalon sa gitna.

    My in-laws also told me that the cuz of my wife decided to buy a car also (happy for her actually as she worked hard from scratch) but their old house (which is the ancestral house) has no parking so i'm willing to bet their gonna use our garage.
    My brother is guilty of parking his car on the street because he's just lazy to park inside. He comes in and out kasi. One instance our drunk neighbor (who he hates) hit his car The parts had to be ordered abroad and it was quite pricey. I think our neighbor learned his lesson, not so much my brother.

    Okay lang if you have enough for your needs, eh kagaguhan na rin yung dami. They also work nearby so in the morning, labas lang sa kalye yung mga kotse as most of the time they just walk then igagarahe ulit at night.

    If you have a large subdivision road, the issue isn't as great. When we still lived at our family home, I would always park inside and would only leave the car outside when i will only be home for a few minutes.

    heaven forbid, but...
    ma-sikwatan lang yan ng side mirror, and that's probably the last time owner will park outside.

    I think it's ridiculous to use a car as a status symbol if the home doesn't have enough space to park all their cars.

    i think that is precisely the point. they have so many cars, they ran out of garages...

    i have had as many as 4 cars in the garage, years ago..
    it's nothing to be proud of, considering how much trouble i had, cleaning them cars on a regular basis...
    i hated weekends then...

    If you can't provide parking space/garage for your car, hindi ka mayaman. Mayabang ka. At magulang for using the street as your parking.

    hey hey! let's hear it from the government!
    "you want to buy a car, first show me your garage."
    let's make "no parking on public roads" the default rule... punishable by heavy fine... and outright confiscation after strike 3...
    let's start at quiapo.
