Why are you driving?

[Manilablock]

1. you feel relax behind the wheel - your car separates you from the stress (work or family related).

2. you want to race - you enjoy flooring the gas looking at your rear view mirror on high end cars behind you.

3. you don't have a driver - it more like burden for you to drive (if you have the cash you will hire a driver).

4. you are the driver - its your job.


for me, I work from 8:00am upto such time my work allows me to go home, pero max na ung 9:00pm, all the stress nawawala pag nag drive na ako. normally 60kph ang average speed ko, not that slow ako pero un lang talaga ang safe na driving speed sa metro manila (considering traffic at mga lubak sa daan).

Ikaw, ano ang reason mo kaya ka nag drive today?

[R.Paul]

Same. Kasi kailangan pumasok. Although nakakastress nga lang yung mga jeep sa daan saka mga motor na singit ng singit. Minsan gusto ko na lang ng driver para di na umiinit ulo ko sa daan.

Dagdag pogi points pampa akit sa mga chiks

[d'flash]

nakakarelax para sakin pag nagdrive ako, maliban nalang kung puro PUV katabi mo, maiinis at maiinis ka.

[kenzie]

I drive because it takes me and my fam from point A to point B comfortably

Eto na yo!

But really:
1. Necessity (the daily grind)
2. Enjoyment (long trips or a weekend/holiday drive around the city)

Before i used to go for track days and fun runs but that is now a thing of the past.

ako walang choice..... have to drive.
but if i have a driver, ayoko na.

For me it's really for convenience. If public transport was any easier or more efficient, I'd gladly give it up and just be a weekend driver for when I'm with my family.

[joemarski]

Bakit ako nag- drive today? Simple lang, papasok sa opis eh.

Pero dumating sa buhay ko na ang dahilan kaya ako nagmaneho "ngayon" ay isa sa 4 na ini- lista mo.
Marami pang ibang dahilan.... Maraming- marami pa...

But for now... I drive my car because it is my car.
< The feeling is simply... Undescribable...

Re: Why are you driving?

coz i hate public transpo

[cast_no_shadow]

Necessity.

Because i don't have a driver hehe..

Still i'd rather have the stress of driving than enduring the stress taking mass transportation.

And when im with my family? mas confident and i feel safer if im the one behind the wheel.

Kung madali at convenient lang magcommute, like Singapore, hinde na ako magddrive araw araw.

Altho sa choices mo, #1 pa rin. Kahit papano, as long as dein traffic, enjoy naman.

1. I get dizzy when somebody else is driving. Bahala na sila mahilo sa drive ko, wag lang ako.
2. Ayoko may driver, pihikan ako sa mga kotse ko.

Ganito rin ako lalo na pag ibang sasakyan gamit.
Sa driver, meron akong kaibigan sa Manila na sya ring nagda-drive pag maraming asikaso. Pero mostly gusto ko ako nagda-drive.

1. Enjoy ako pag ako nagda-drive
2. Kumportable ako pag ako may dala sa car, at sa family ko.
3. Kailangan magtransport from A to B
4. At pag ako driver, I have all the time during driving & the same with my family.

sumasakit ang ulo ko pag iba ang nagdra-drive. may driver kami dati, parang gusto ko kutusan lagi - sobrang bagal, o sobrang bilis (di ba alam bagayan ang road situation), sobrang alanganin ang overtake, alanganin ang pasok o lusot, o kaya naman e libre na ayaw pa, etc etc. lalo lang sumasakit ulo ko, e ayaw ko naman manduhan ko siya sa driving nya maliban na lang kung sablay talaga. in the end my wife fired him, pati pala si misis ko sumasakit ang ulo hahaha!

i like to drive myself, kahit 12 hours straight ako mag-drive hindi sumasakit ulo ko. pasakayin mo ako sa bus na 3 hours guaranteed sasakit ulo ko at mas lalo pa akong pagod.

ako din ganian! Ano bang meron? Kala ko mas relax pag sasakay ng bus pauwi ng probinsya, yun pala parang mas pagod ako. Masakit ang katawan at ulo pagdating ng bahay.

public transpo is virtually nil here... so no choice talaga but to drive my own! sometimes i just drive without any specific destination, yup stress reliever sa akin ang driving.

I'd like to try that myself sometime. Muni muni. Pero pag gabi, coz driving on rush hours will snap you back to reality. Sakit lang ulo mo.

same here, i really do prefer driving than riding a bus pagpuntang province.
worse bus experiences:
- borongan, samar to cubao. 28hrs. first two hours palang suka na yung kid sa opposite side ng seat ko
- paracale to manila. cramped provincial bus, then pagbukas ng ilaw, wall inside the bus was full of cockroaches

[lowslowbenz]

the bus was full of cockroaches

WTH ... paharap mo na sa akin lahat, wag lang ipis!
