I drove to Cavite once around 97 or 98 in Aguinaldo highway and traffic was horrible. I swore to myself that I am never passing that route again. I could imagine how much worse the traffic is more than 15 years after![]()
Stop with the stupid schemes...start with cracking down on colorum buses and errant drivers.
Agree ako sa proposed new coding, basta EDSA and C5 lang.
Dagdagan na rin ang railcar ng MRT.

Bago iimprove yung batas, make sure na plantsado na yung alternative, which in this case is the public transportation system. Ngayon pa nga lang na madami na may private vehicles jampak na yung mga public transpos eh, lalo pa kung iimplement tong batas na to at lilipat to commute yung mga fellow private motorists natin.
Mahal pa rin pala.I hope hindi matuloy to, in fact I'm praying na tanggalin na yang coding na yan. Very risky kaya magcommute. Ok lang sana yung maghahalo halo amoy niyo o nakatayo ka buong byahe sa bus o maging itim ang kulangot mo, pero yung maholdap ka, nakakatakot yun.
There was this friend of mine na nagkwento saken na yung kaibigan daw niya na babae pinatay dahil ayaw niya ibigay yung hinihingi ng holdaper, she was dragged down the jeep and the holdaper shot her in the face. Sayang, cum laude pa naman from one of big Universities here in the metro.
That is so true. Yung officemate ko na fresh grad na holdup ng cab driver. He bargained for his IDs lang kasi napakahirap kumuha ng sss, prc, license etc ulit. The driver said he only needed money lang naman. So they dropped him off somewhere.
Sa MM hindi lang basta mahirap mag commute, delikado pa. Tapos sasabihin ni Tolentino sa TV na konting sacrifice lang. Uminit talaga ulo ko!!! What does he know about taking public transpo anyway?!?!
Muntik na ko maholdap twice. The first time, tutok ng ice pick but I managed to run away. Second time I had to jump off a moving bus to escape.
Considering the years I've been commuting, mababa talaga probability ng holdup unless malas ka or sobrang flashy mo. But when it happens, yari ka talaga.
But I still commute anyway lol.
Napakabano ng public transport system sa Manila.
Bakit maraming gusto magkakotse? Refer to the first statement.
Bakit may colorum? Refer to the first statement.
I don't know why MMDA's solution is so idiotic. Humans would always evolve or adapt to find solutions. Kapag mayaman ka, buy another car. Kapag mahirap ka, buy a fake plate number, dala calling card, pretend to be the police, blah blah blah. Kapag nagcocommute ka, good luck sa pakikipag-agawan sa bus.
Yung nagsasabing mahusay na idea ito, panigurado babawiin nyo yan pagkayo eh natyempuhan ng mga pusakal ng kalsada. Wala ng safe na public transpo. Unless they make it safe and convenient, saka lang ako maniniwalang may pakinabang yang kokote ng attorney nagpapanggap na engr.

Kaya namimiss ko si bayani fernando dahil ito ang nakadisiplina sa bus at jeep.
Nung college nasanay din ako magcommute para matuto hindi na hinahatid sa school. Pati pagsabit sa jeep kung walang makakapitan under the roof pinag-aralan ko.
Nakakatakot maholdup. Tapos sinanay ko wag huminga pag meron mabaho sa loob ng jeep.. Nung natuto ako magdrive ayoko na i-asa ang buhay ko sa jeepney or bus driver lalo na dito metro manila.
Yung sinasabi ni tolentino na isa or dalawa daw passenger ng kotse. Eh kaya nga bumili ng kotse para comfortable dahil ayaw makipagsiksikan.
Right now nga pumupunta ako gym hindi dala kotse pero ang gamit bicycle. Hindi ko talaga feel yung amoy sa jeep at bus.
kung may systema lang sana ang mga public tranport natin mas maigi pa commute na lng kesa dala ng car if straight forward ka lng from office and home.same as other country ayaw nila dala car dhil matrapik daw kay mrt na lng sila hehe.
good point. Bakit nga ba traffic sa c5 pero walang buses/jeepney except for the front of Eastwood, ang garapal ng jeepney drivers dun. They literally create the trafiic from ortigas flyover and blueridge.
anyways, maybe MMDA should test run if this will work. Sobrang traffic na nga ngaun. people will definitely buy a 2nd car or a 2nd hand car or just buy a condo near place of work. on the brighter side, this will increase spending & more business for the Philippines, Why not implement the ordinance na din dapat may garage for this and not park on the sidewalk.
Sadly, this sounds unconstitutional but sobrang congested na talaga. I have noticed commuters too, ang dami na din so to limit the number of PUVs on the road will also be a problem. Exponential din ang rise ng daily commuters as is the cars.
Akala ko sa biglang tingin lang mukhang bobo ito si Tolentino, totoo palang bobo ito.
Kung gusto nya ng walang traffic, bawasan nya ng 50% ang mga bus sa EDSA at bilisan ang turn around ng mga MRT trains.
At ang importante, magdagdag/widening sila ng daan, at i-connect na ang sky/slex sa nlex. Inuna pa yung NAIA-1 to NAIA-2, hinayupak, ilan lang ba lumilipat ng NAIA-1 papuntang NAIA-2/3.
Sa c5 walang puv, pero lahat ng exit meron at andun ang sandamakmak na mga tangang kalahi ng nagpauso ng ganyang sistema ng coding. Kung babawalan niya ang sasakyan sa kalsada dapat i compensate ng gobyerno ang mga may sasakyan by means of providing safe, secured and "healthy" PUV's. Taenang yan ibabawal ka sa kalsada ng twice tapos magbebenta lang pala ng plaka na pang exempt sa pesteng coding.
