    If they do the same to the sira-ulong PUV drivers then i'll be quite happy.
    yun naman pala eh, mukhang ayaw na rin niyang mag drive kaya hinde nag attend ng hearing sa LTO

    Too harsh but considering na hindi nga sumipot sa hearing si Blair, aggravating circumstance nga malamang as vinj pointed out. Pero sana hinabaan na lang. Precedent case din kasi ito. But it does serve a purpose. From now on, all rage drivers will have to reaalllllllllllly think long and hard before cofronting another driver.

    If there is one thing about this, maybe it can indeed help save life and limb later on by preventing road rage from occuring. If Mr. Carabuena is really sorry for what happened and wants to do something about it, perhaps he can make that his calling by giving his time to promoting road users education... it's not about how hard you fall but how you get up right?

    In as much as he became the poster boy of all road rage drivers, I guess this should be the proper punishment for him. Sure it is harsh, specially for all of us here that can't imagine not driving our cars anymore. But if you think of it, how many times did we wish of some drivers na "dapat di na nagmamaneho yah eh". Well, eto na yun panahon.

    it may be a knee jerk reaction for the unfortunate fool, but if it means one less a-hole off the roads, then so be it.
