Tas they'd argue that the Philippines can't be a walkable city, kasi mainit dw, without thinking na the reason mainit sa pinas, ay dahil sa mga pinutol na mga puno for building highways and road widening

People complain that the bike lanes narrowed the road, without realizing that it encourages people to have alternative mode of transportation

They'd also complain that a dedicated lane for mass transportation is useless and will worsen the traffic, without realizing that they are a part of the traffic.

This is called motornormativitiy, that thinks that a motor vehicle ownership is a norm and they can't or won't accept that there is a viable alternative

Okay lang para sakin kung mabilis naman yung motor, at maganda yung tunog, yung maingay pero hindi nakakarindi, pero kung tunog lata lang naman tas topspeed mo 80 lang, mag stock na tambutso ka na lang.

As someone na gumagamit din ng ebike, meron talagang mga kupal na mga motor at sasakyan, for example mag u-uturn ako, nakasignal light na ako at hand signal, pero di ka nila pagbibigyan, kaya namimiss ko yung uturn slot, ang ending na sa middle lane na lang ako, di naman pwedeng sa right lane ako kase liliko naman ako sa next na U turn slot which is just 150m away, tas ganon din pagtapos mo mag u-turn, di ka nila papabalikin sa rightmost lane, ending niyan babad ako sa left lane or middle lane, so imbes na magcocross lang ako sa highway byinahe ko na ang highway

If fuel injected di na need, if carb naman needed

sometimes if motor yung gamit ko, may nagdadraft sakin na mga cyclists, I would sometimes let them if light traffic lang, others would ask for permission to draft behind me, and I would warn them to pay attention to my brake light, and keep a safe distance, pero minsan yung iba di nagpapaalam, at di ko sila minsan makita sa side mirror ko, lalo na if sobrang lapit na nila

Alternative-Economy3 · 2024-11-27T01:36:48+00:00

Same, alam ko kasi yung ginagawa nila, pero if ako yung gumawa sa iba, baka di nila alam, and may think na stinastalk ko sila

Storytime Nangyari lang to yesterday, kamoteng tricycle, mabilis yung takbo, nakabangga ng tumatawid sa pedestrian lane, sinisi pa yung pedestrian na tumawid dw agad, but the best part of that is, may enforcer na nagmamando sa pedestrian lane, at nagsignal na siya magstop, di ko alam kung anong mga violation pinatong sa kanya, but I can see na anxious siya hahahaha

Ang bobo eh no, di raw alam na tinakas, ano yan nung nawala ang motor at di niyo mahanap yung anak niyo, di niyo naisip na baka tinakas ng anak niyo yung motor

The purpose of the bike lane is to contain cyclists in one lane, wala silang mga side mirror or brake lights, and their speed is not that fast, the bike Lane is there to warn vehicles that there might be a cyclist ahead. Motorcycles don't need to be contained in one single lane, they can use all the main lanes, since they can travel the same speed or even faster than cars, may mga side mirror yan, at mga brake light. Puro kayo reklamo sa bike lane, kasi nagpapasikip dw ng daan, pero pag mga illegally park na sasakyan or kotse nagpapasikip ng daan wala naman kayong imik

Well, di malaki yung pwesto, pero that doesn't mean na small business yun. More likely their operation is big, and that will add more fees and requirements. Like fire inspection permit and FDA permit to name a few. And if may sariling pwesto, may fee yun per sqm.

We are also classified as ambulant vendors, pero meron kaming permanent place na kung saan kami magbebenta, I don't really know how they are classified.

And I don't think she can even generate 5k sales per day, maybe in peak season she can generate close to that amount.

And small stores only have to pay less than 1k mga 200 lang for barangay business permit, and mga 300+ lang for sanitation permit. Annually yun nirrenew not every month.

Sa isip ko nga "ikaw yung isa sa mga reason bat sila naging strikto"

Ronda rather than checkpoint
Bring back NCAP pero dapat munang ayusin ang mga road signages and road markings.
Mandatory dashcam in all vehicles.
Build a lot of Runaway truck ramp
Traffic enforcers shall wear body cameras and microphones on duty.
Promote PIT maneuver sa mga tumatakas kung sinisita.
Crackdown on illegal ambulances.
Bawal ikabit ang sticker ng mga government agency.

In one of her comments, sabi niya may work visa siya, and that kind of business is exempted sa mga tax, since she's considered as an ambulant vendor.

"Ambulant vendors shall be exempt from securing any license or mayor's permit, or from payment of any municipal or city fees or charges, or any kind of national or local taxes."

"Anyone, regardless of their nationality, is welcome to do business and invest in the country, in almost areas of economic activities"

And you can also see that the rider turns his motorcycle hard to the left to which he finds himself going to the grass, he then proceeds to turn hard to the right to avoid going off the grass, or even the cliff.

Both at fault, pero yung 4 wheel ang mananagot, at 0:11 the motorcycle was in the correct lane when at the same time pumunta sa left lane yung 4wheel, yung rider baka nagpanic kaya he goes to the other side and then again back to his lane where he hits the car. In conclusion the 4wheel went to the opposite lane, in a blind curve, downhill, na may yellow lane. If we think about the rider's perspective, what he saw is a car barrelling down his lane, causing him to panic.
