    7 ako

    I dont follow speed limits except if I'm inside our village(strict kase)
    I use signal lights (pero pagayaw pa rin magbigay "see your ride at tsikot.com na lang)
    If its early in the morning I don't follow the traffic light dahil wala naman traffic..
    Minsan dumadaan sa one way na street at ginagawang two-way..hehe

    I think maybe I'm an 8.
    -I do speed, but only in the absence of traffic, and I always slow down for intersections. I usually limit my speed if there is cross-traffic or if there are pedestrians... and I never act like I'm king of the road (honk honk honk GEToutOFmyWAY).

    -I follow stoplights, but if it's late at night, I stop, look both ways, then cross with caution.

    -I never cross the double yellow line, unless directed to by an enforcer.

    -I obey traffic enforcers. I used to make lagay lagay, but now I don't. You'd be amazed how many enforcers change their mind about giving tickets if you say "LTO? Monday? No Problem." :lol:

    But, I do have a weakness. Like Marty McFly (in Back To The Future 1,2 and 3) who can't stand being called "chicken", it's the same with me. When the driver on the next lane starts revving his engine and egging me on, I check out what he's driving. If I feel like I can take him, papatulan ko and I'm normally good at picking my fights. If I knew I'm overmatched, I normally backed off.

    I need to learn to back off, period. I'm not a young kid anymore and I also have a family. Pero, matigas pa rin ang ulo ko, e. Someday, maybe when I'm 50, hopefully.
    Same here!

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    i suppose i'm an 8.5

    - i don't beat the red light regardless of the hour
    - always use my signal lights a good distance from my turn
    - i don't hog lanes
    - i stick to the slow lane on the highway
    - i follow traffic/road signs
    - i shift lanes a good distance before my anticipated turn
    - i don't tailgate
    - i don't counterflow
    - i don't throw trash on the street
    - i don't double park

    I do my best to follow the rules for my safety, and not for anyone elses.

    BUT, once in a year I'd sometimes get into an argument with a motorist in violation of a traffic rule.

    Although alam ko naman na ako ang mali. Dahil, ang gawain ko sa kalye ay kabaliktaran ng gawain ng tunay na pinoy.

    I give myself a 7.5:

    - I don't pay bribes.
    - I don't run red lights, not even on deserted roads.
    - I always use my turn signals.
    - I refrain from using the high beams on my headlights, or turn them down once another vehicle is coming
    - I stick to the specified speed limit
    - I take heed of "no left turn" and "no U-turn" areas, as well as one-way streets.
    - I give way to another vehicle when necessary, to the consternation of the vehicle behind me.

    Why such a low score, then? I place paramount importance on my temper behind the wheel, something which I feel I need to improve on, especially when encountering less enlightened motorists.

    9.5

    i follow the traffic rules almost immaculately, giving right of way, never bribing(i never see the need since i haven't been flagged), i reduce my speed at the intersections even in the absence of stoplight, keeping the speed limit, signal my intentions clearly. never tail-gate. keep my lane, even follow the road-markings. in short, i drive defensively at all times.

    pero wag lang ako gagawan ng masama(say, bigla akong ka-cut-in, or tumutok sa likod ko at maninilaw). demonyo rin ako pag nagalit.

    I rate myself at 6. I recognize my shortcomings and limitations which i'm trying hard to correct or improve on as I see fit. Mababa but it's something to start on. In the end hindi naman tayo ang magre-rate nyan.
