I'm proud to say that when I applied for my DL, I did it the right way (no backer or fixer). I was still in HS when I took it and my parents didn't want me driving yet kaya bahala daw ako mag apply :P Parusa mag apply ng license nung 90s. Pipila ka sa labas and it will take the whole day.

Yung exam naman, e nakapaskil na sa wall yung mga sagot, tanga na lang babagsak dun

exactly, yet there's a lot of those who fails the exam still.
the driving instructor simply asked; may dala ba kayong kotse? and so yes we replied. ok,,,, hindi na sya test mag-drive. siguro naman marunong na siya

pero maalam na talaga daughter ko mag-drive, talo pa nga nya yun pinsan niyang lalaki mag-parallel parking eh.

Seriously? May bumabagsak pa? Yung mga signs kasi naka post sa wall so you only have to look around and the exam is so easy.

Di ko alam pwede pala gamitin sariling auto? What's surprising for me is that you have a daughter old enough to drive, I thought we are the same age or you are younger :P

But I'm old enough to remember nung pwede pa mag parallel park sa Taft

yes, meron pa talagang mga bumabagsak. sila yun mga tipong kayang-kayang sigaw sigawan ng mga LTO staff, mga slow lang talaga kung baga

daughter now at 23 but she starts learning to drive at 18 yata. dito dito lang sa village dati.

karamihan sa drivers ngayon parang napilitan lang kumuha ng lisensya dahil sinubukan kumuha ng auto loan, e naaprove...

growing economy

good pay

available credit

madami kaya bumili ng oto

infrastruture didn't keep up

trapik

--

many people moving up the socio-economic ladder (higher standard of living)

dati nagcocommute, ngayon car owners

once a car owner, won't go back to commuting

govt doesn't get it

I'm sick and tired of administrations telling us taxpayers to sacrifice and suffer. Its time they sacrifice and suffer by returning all the kickbacks and corrupt money they have enjoyed through the years, and forsaking all of it in the future. Then maybe we can afford nice things such as good infrastructure and qualified government workers.

Isa isang problem lang

They can leave the car at Trinoma... They can ask someone to drive them to the MRT (I honestly tried both options, pero sa SM North ko noon iniiwan sasakyan ko)...

Pero instead of taking an Uber to Makati/Ortigas... People can take an Uber to North/Q. Ave station then take the MRT from there.

My Indian colleagues told me that their trains have a "premium section" it was followed by a joke na mahihiya ka daw sumakay kapag di ka naka-neck tie...

Wtf that is common pala?!?

May napanood ako Filipina YouTuber exactly that scenario! Yung husband 40s yung wife 30s, pareho di marunong mag drive! Nag apply ng loan, na approve sa hilux. Saka pa lang nag driving lesson. Wala pang parking. Hay!
