Ito nga pala point ko: I was positioned more than a car away in front of the first motorcycle and I clearly signaled my intention to overtake pero ayaw nya, una daw sya.

Isn't it a traffic violation to overtake an overtaking vehicle?

I just always remind myself that it's better to drive defensively and avoid hassles. Wala naman pambayad mga yan pag tinamaan ka, tatakbuhan ka lang (this has happened to me at least twice before).
