Why does Makati love doing these things on a work day? No one gives a flying **** about this and will just want to get on with their work.

Speaking of Makati. They jumbled up all the stoplight timings this past week so those familiar with the stoplight sequences on Ayala and Paseo de Roxas, be wary as they seem to run on the reverse order from before. :D

I wish they would install ALL stoplights with a large timer display.

Think of all the traffic enforcers who will lose a large chunk of their income if they can't catch guys "beating the yellow light" anymore? :D

true but it is helpful for the motorists when to get ready to move forward.

I agree with this 100%. It also tells you whether you're good to speed up to catch the light or you can save your fuel and start slowing down. It also tells me if the stoplight is ridiculously short timed that it's better to just go to another turn or intersection.

What's crazy though is that even with this timer, some people are still oblivious to it and take their sweet time to move which will in turn, especially if it's rush hour, hold back another two to three rows of cars in the same stoplight when it turns red. I don't know also why but lately i've been getting miffed at people who take too much of their sweet time in driving (meaning they're too slow as against flowing traffic and too slow in accelerating). Yes they may not be in a rush but other people are. That's what i liked also about SG. The people were driving within speed limits and with discipline most of the time but when they accelerate, they really accelerate fast to running road speed so traffic is always moving at a good pace.

mismo. so that you can anticipate when the light will turn yellow. mga mapsa pa naman sa makati eh kunwari tumatakbo ka ng 40-60kph then biglang mag-yellow light (of course you will go instead of stopping kahit eksaktong nakalagpas ka na) ay mahuhuli ka pa.
