Ewan ko ha pero with Makati's traffic condition, okay nga to eh. But most I see, nagbabranch out yung innermost lane ng isa pang mini lane para sa turning left. So parang 2 lanes na yung allowed magleft.

I used to take that mini branch out lane going left to paseo then I realized, if sila lang ang allowed to go left pipila talaga sa flyover yung traffic. Usually pag nagsanga yung lane, the lane next to it allowed din magleft. Confirm ko to sa ayala going left to makati ave. Di kasi traffic so I can see the arrow. The 2nd lane to left is allowed both left and straight.

Ganyan yung tinutukoy ko for Buendia Flyover going to Paseo na 2nd lane. Kaya kung hindi familiar sa area baka mataranta sa arrow

Yung sa Manila Pen allowed ata talaga straight and left turn.

Obviously, and rather incorrectly, they thought they’d put that two-headed arrow in the small area you can move from lane 1 to the left-turn only slot.

If you ask me, that two-headed arrow is unnecessary. If any, it should be several meters further back.

This is the area in question...

Ah gets ko na. So when you see the two headed arrow akala mo pwede left and straight pero sa unahan, straight na lang.

In reality, yang 2 lanes pinapayagan mag left to paseo.

Kaya sobrang nakakalito for the people not familiar sa area. Inatras nalang sana nila yung arrow na may left turn para maka-decide ng maaga yung mga motorists. Minsan nangyayari takot sila mag-left turn dini-diretso nalang nila. Napapansin ko yan on sunday drives.

i wonder,
has anyone ever contested that confusing signage?
