Foggy days at Tagaytay

**cast_no_shadow** · January 5th, 2011 11:13 AM

One time papunta ako nasugbu, nataon may bagyo pa nun..
Salamat sa cat eye, yun na lang ang sinundan ko..
Wala ako sasakyan sa harapan kaya ang hirap, hindi ka rin makahataw..
Scary.. kahit 20/20 vision ka wala din..

Thanks sa response guys! Nasayang tuloy yung byahe namin last week hehe, natraffic pa sa SLEX and C5!

I would assume rin that the fog gets worst pag past 12mn na, when we stayed there before talagang mahirap na pag madaling araw.

At least now I know. Kaya ako siguro napraning is because there was a time that we were going up to Taytay dun sa Sierra Madre resort, di rin namin natuloy dahil halos zero visibility na and di ako familiar dun sa daan e ang taas taas na namin baka mahulog lang sa bangin! :D

I experienced this several years ago though I wasn't driving. I was so scared I hyperventilated. It was around 10 pm on a semi dirt road, no car ahead of us and almost zero visibility.

^that's the worst thing that you can do if you're driving ^_^

I also experienced driving in a super foggy tagaytay road several years ago, attended a wedding in Tagaytay around February, we went home around 9-10pm. It's just me and my gf then(wifey now). Foglights are very useful during this time, you need to be wary of vehicles in front and also at the back of your car and use the cat eyes sa daan. Awa ng Diyos, nakarating kami ng SLEX after 2 hours ata *_*

I'm quite used to it since i'm from Tagaytay and I concur with those who posted that cat's eye is very useful.

I grew up near tagaytay (Camp Castaneda PC Tracom now PNPA). I love that place. Whenever we went to tagaytay market at 4am during wednesdays the fog was so intense that me and my brother would barely see each other inside the jeepney. Funny thing was, it gets worse if we drank hot barako because the smoke that comes out of our mouths add to the fogginess of everything. I remember back then the jeepney's front was full of foglights the size of dinner plates.
