    i just want to give praise to a biker, and it was more like a scooter and definitely not a big bike, i saw this morning along santolan from c5-katipunan turning left to white plains.

    it was a crawl going up from marikina but he stayed in his lane like a car would and never weaved between lanes like most of his counterparts. and when the light turned red, he stopped and still maintained his lane, right in front of me. some of the bikers who passed by actually looked at him as if he was a wierdo.

    and when we were finally in white plains, he stayed on the right side but still didn't try to squeeze through other cars. hope we have more of you! he's just the 2nd biker i've seen in my whole life who actually drives properly! kudos!

    agree, ito rin ang basa ko sa mga tulad nila.... i've seen some na for registration pa ang plaka at napaka cautious. sana nga di maging bulate este magbago.

    he is probably more used to driving a car and he knows how annoying it is when bikers weave in and out of traffic. kudos to him.

    i wasn't able to guage his age because of the helmet and that he was wearing one of those long-sleeved "yamaha" shirts. pero mukhang sanay na rin magmotor kasi yung pagupo nya habang naghihintay ng go e yung parang relax na relax e. not the tense or conscious way new drivers would act. hindi rin sya yung matutok or pabigla bigla yung andar.

    well, whether he's new or not, hope nga na hindi sya magbago at turuan pa nya yung iba ng tamang pagmaneho. baka nga nakapagproper schooling or training on how to ride a bike.

    actually 'scooter' ang term na nakasanayan kong gamitin for those small bikes na uso ngayon. mas malapit kasi itsura nya sa scooter kesa sa mga motorcycles na usual na nakikita ko. para sa akin kasi ang 'motorcycle' ay yung pang tricycle up to the big bikes. yung 'scooter' are those smaller ng pang tricycle. anyway, hope i don't offend anybody.

    I've seen some na talaga namang halata na ang katandaan ng motor, parang ilang giyera na ang pinagdaanan -- tapos "For Registration" pa rin ang plaka.

    i am one those MC riders guilty of overtaking vehicles who are stucked in traffic (as in pag pila na). dati mejo asiwa din ako sa kanila pero nahwa na din nung nagka MC kami

    pero pag iniisip ko, kapag ndi naman talaga sikipan at kapag marahan ang pag overtake ng motor, may benefit din sa mga kotseng na-traffic. kasi pag kotse dala ko then from stop ay nag go, ang bagal ng arangkadfa pag may motor sa harapan mo unlike kung lahat ng motor ay andun sa dulo ng traffic. minsan dahil sa motor aabutan ka uli ng stop. hehehe

    yan naman ay kung standstill ang traffic. pag umaandar naman at singit ng singit, ayaw ko din ng ganun at ndi ko ginagawa yun.

    nway, almost all vehicles are allowed to overtake as long as the drivers do it properly. and i hope i do.

    motorcycles are getting prolific nowadays, and you can't help notice bad habits.

    unfortunately we don't have the infrastructure to instill discipline and order, unlike in china where they actually have separate lanes for bikes and cycles. so if you're driving in a car, you won't bump into them.

    the downside to car drivers is, since we're generally defensive around them, it's stressing. one small bump could be a major accident for a biker. where i live, when it's traffic, some bikers even drive against their flow just to overtake. e pag kasalubong mo na, alangan namang di mo iwasan. tsk, tsk.

    hope they do something about that.
