Skyway Stage 3

[ice15]

I have relatives living in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Japan. With their families. They don’t have cars and don’t see the need to buy one.

galing din ako dun. first 6 months was ok ("honeymoon period")... tapos maghahanap ka din ng sarili mong kotse (nandun din family ko)

Singapore - mas madali mag cross ng border kung may car. mas madali din magikot ikot (5 mins away by public transport house to office ko, mas matagal pa yung paghahanap ko ng parking)
Japan - may timing ang express trains, iba pa din kung may sasakyan ka
Korea - naiinis ako na ang hirap kausapin taxi drivers nila
HK - ewan ko kung bakit, pero mas convenient pa din may sariling car
Pati US and AUS -> iba pa din umikot kapag may car ka

(No sure if I mentioned it here or on another forum) kahit overseas holiday namin, unang hinahanap ko is car rental na sa airport ang pick-up. except sa Phuket, may contact na akong driver+car dun

Nakaka-inis sa Singapore and HK nung may Uber pa. 1 year driver's license lang kasi requirement nila... pati mga fresh grad na officemates namin nagkaroon bigla ng kotse.

as mentioned earlier... iba iba naman tayo...

pero

yung may kotse
yung mahilig sa kotse
mahilig mag drive

gagamitin natin kotse natin, kahit ma traffic pa

ngayon, kung wala nang traffic... iiwan ba talaga natin kotse natin sa bahay?

Maganda rin ang chikot if gusto niyong pamilya mag-away away privately during your trips.

Make sure lang may garahe kayo, kaysa sa kalsada niyo lang ipaparada.

Mahirap mawala yung habit na may sariling sasakyan. Pero kung lumaki na using public transport, you will not see the need to have a car. Sanayan lang kasi yan. Kaya ang target dapat ay yung nasanay na mag commute, hindi na mangarap bumili ng sasakyan kasi mas maganda na ang transport system. Yung may sasakyan naman, ang maka trigger din na hindi gamitin yung sasakyan nila is pag na perfect na yung autonomous self driving cars. Subscribe ka lang ng service nila and para ka na may sariling driver. No need for buying car. Anytime may available.

the issue kasi sa current bikelane eh ginawa yan nung enhance community quaranteen dahil bawal public vehicles para hindi dikit-dikit hindi maghingahan ng covid veerus.

Sa current siutation ngayon na allowed na ulit eh mali talaga bicycle lane kasi lalo sisikip. Eh sa aurora boulevard nga two lane road so magulo.

Ang proposal ko eh ELEVATED, COVERED, GUARDED BIKE LANE sa edsa. May napicpicture na ako sa isip ko.

Paikot ng abad santos-caloocan bonifacio shrine-edsa-quezon-avenue-espana-legarda-recto-mendiola-quiapo = Paikot yan malaking tulong sa university belt. TApos pwede iextend yung edsa quezon avenue all the way sa makati-pasay.

Isa pa napipicture ko eh from gilmore all the way sa cainta dulo yun may nakalagay sa bus na tikling.

A safe mode of bikelane eh madami blue collar/student ito na lagn gagawin kasi malaki menos pamasahe.

Sa bisikleta umiikli ang food chain. MAtagal magpalit ng parts and the most important eh no fuel or electricity requried. . BAkit ayaw ng mga namumuno konti gastos gusto merry go round nakakahilo.

Unahan na kita. Saan graduate mga leaders?

Ang problema kasi sa leaders na graduate ng top school eh wala sa reality puro pasosy. Ang alam nila pagbabike eh yugn akyat antipolo at meron pa isa sikat na dangerous trail kasi tigok ka talaga pag nagkamali. Tapos may convoy pa pickup truck na takot malubakan. Ano alam nila sa bike cummuting. How luhtang talaga.

Again hindi gagana biking sa pinas kung same flat road kayo ng monstero na nagwild, jeep na anytime baba-sakay, alega gang motorcycle, feeling schumi na civic, taxi driver na tutpk ng tutok, bus na mahilig mangpina . at 18wheeler na nawawalan lagi ng brake.

Again ELEVATED-COVERED-GUARDED BIKE LANE

Cars are optional in HK and Singapore. They are also too expensive for the average person.

A vios in SG is PHP 3M, a BMW 3 series is PHP 7M.

All the countries you mentioned have fantastic public transport

If I lived alone in any of those places, I wouldn’t bother getting a car even if I could afford one.

If youre in California or Miami, you need a car

In most parts of the USA, you need a car to move around. Lalo na if you live in the suburbs. Sa Chicago dati, may toll road (I88) connecting the western suburbs to downtown.

Sa lahat ng major US cities napuntahan ko, New York City lang yung massive yung public transport system. Marami pa rin kotse within the 5 boroughs but pahirapan parking sa Manhattan.

Pinaka magandang transport train system na nakita ko ay sa Ontario. Yung mga train may support na bus na ka timing ng train schedule, may malaki din parking area kung gusto mo mag dala ng car up to the station. May strict urban planning sila, na wala dito sa pinas.

Could be a similar solution here in Metro Manila.

Train and Bus stations in the outlying areas with provisions for vehicle parking.... Then trains and government-controlled buses are the only ones entering the Metro without toll... You can drive your car in the Metro, but be ready to pay expensive toll... NYC has a fairly similar setup...

never ending joke sa SG and HK...

after drinking, everyone are on their phone.
Singaporeans, Chinese and Indians are booking for a drive home service
Pinoys are booking for Grab/Taxi

same sa Sydney... but is only works if your an hour away by train sa work mo. if less than an hour, napaka-mahal na lang ng parking if the person decided to leave their car.
