Why driving is such a pain in Manila
I love my car. I love to drive my car. So it annoys me that I cannot enjoy driving my car because there are too many idiots on Manila roads. If you thought Paris was chaotic place to get behind the wheel, well you’re right but it’s worse in Manila.
My house is only 10km from my office and it takes me 20 minutes on average to get there. This is ridiculous.
Where else can you see passengers getting on and off public vehicles in the middle of a highway.
Where else can public vehicles pile three lanes off a five lane highway to load passengers.
Where else can you see public vehicles stopping and unloading/ loading passengers at anytime they wanted to.
Where else can you see drivers driving on red.
Where else can you see cars parked anywhere and no is towing them.
Where else can you see cars driving at 40kph on the highway and they think they’re saving gas.
Where else can you just cut into someone’s lane.
Where else can you see public vehicles not use their headlights at night.
I can go on forever but it still doesn’t hide the fact that Philippine roads are filled with inept traffic cops and idiot drivers who can’t read but somehow got a driver’s license. Just goes to show how badly run and lived this country is.
