    so far, all these things can be accomplished without the benefit of emergency powers.

    It's really enforcement of what is in place. Same with ridding colorum vehicles.

    bakit di nalang isara yung buong kahabaan ng tatamaan ng construction, for a month for example.
    tapos imbis na bidding, eh kunin lahat ng contractors at sabay sabay gawin or salubong. walang delay etc. para tapos agad.

    My solution is cheap and readily available. Electric buses attached to overhead power lines. No big railway expenses, only comparatively cheap power lines. Plus the added bonus of the buses staying in their lane. Then outlaw all the PUVs where these buses have lines.

    The drivers of the disenfranchised PUVs can be hired to drive the electric buses. I just don't know about the operators... Maybe move out to the provinces which need the transport? 😄

    Political will is the only large obstacle for this scheme.

    As James Deakin rightly pointed out as the elephant in the room, we need to start with driver discipline. The lawmakers can pass hundred traffic laws but if the drivers ignore them, they are practically useless. I always share this sad joke with visitors from abroad - our traffic rules are merely suggestions.

    Voluntary discipline to any race or nation is non-existent. Been to europ and america, and we're all the same

    You know how america works, drivers get different insurance charges when they have piled out road tickets.

    Yun lang kelangan, Halibawa si yebo may infraction, charge him 10% more sa next renewal ng LTO, halimbawa sa juts, nag park sa kalsada, charge him 100% more sa LTO sa renewal

    That alone is the single most powerful motivator of discipline.

    Alam dapat ni Deakin yan diba Amerkano sya, those dashcams and daily road violation newsBenefit people like him and topgesrph, kasi may purpose sila over something na hindi naman ma-solve. Imagine reporting everyday

    Sayang lang oras with those half-witted solutions

    ----

    Eh pano mangyari ang computerization sa LTO. Yun nga sa ZTE hindi palusot eh. Corruption or not, sana may sariling network ang government agencies

    So suntok sa pader lang lahat ng iniisip na solution dito. It wont work.

    This made me LOL! hahaha!

    Wala naman discipline majority ng Pinoy. Pero napansin ko sa BGC, majority ng drivers, respect the pedestrian lane and intersection (x mark na don't block). I don't know if it's because there are BGC security all over.

    Yung friend ko nahuli na sa BGC ng beating the red light, sa 32nd street, he came from C5, humabol sa green. Hindi talaga pwedeng lagyan ang BGC police. Ako naman natanggalan na ng plate, sa Makati police nakukuha sa pakiusap, pero sa BGC kahit nagpa awa ako, walang effect

    Napansin ko rin to. Nagiging marunong magbigayan pag tapak ng bgc. Maybe because everyone is giving? Nakakabadtrip kasi kapag may swapang e. Tendency ng tao lalong ayaw magbigay

    Tingin ko dahil klarong klaro ang road markings sa BGC. Kumpleto sa stop line, zebra crossing, traffic lights, meron pang sign na pedestrian priority on ped lanes. No room for ambiguity.
