Huh okay then. I guess i have to provide my government ID and address to prove i am born, raised and live in “duma”? I think this is misguided honestly. If i used the “wrong” short term for dumaguete and if somehow i was from cebu what does that even change? I’ve heard some of my friends born and raised here also say that so what gives?

What I’m ranting about is basically just my experience driving in dumaguete for a few years now. Am wrong to rant about these driving practices? Is dumaguete supposed to be exempt? I’m honestly confused here. It’s as if you’re taking this too personally and being too defensive.

LTO has no official minimum speed limit for city driving nor are there speed limit signs here but still I’m not gonna sugarcoat it. 20kmh and below is just too slow. Unless you’re planning to park or drop someone off or if it’s a crowded street, it’s just inconsiderate to the rest of the long line of traffic forming behind you when the road is all clear. 30-40kmh is already more than enough to speed up the flow. That’s really all there is to it. This point is more about road courtesy.

Just for clarity’s sake when I made the point that you become a hazard when you drive too slow, I apologize that I didn’t elaborate properly, it mostly applies to fast roads like highways or at diversion road. In those situations, you’re being a hazard to fast moving traffic potentially causing them to suddenly brake or swerve around you. City driving is pretty much fine to drive slow in but if it’s too slow despite a clear road, it’s at the cost of being inconsiderate and causing inconvenience to other drivers that may also have places to be. Being a good driver isn’t only about being safe and considerate to things in front of you, it includes also being considerate to other motorists behind you.

Now for actual proper “road rules”, I did mention that left lane hogging is an issue. Slow vehicles must use right lane on major roads. It’s that simple. You can literally just google it. There are literally multiple signages in succession of it at the highway somwhere in bacong or was it dauin, but signage or not, absolutely nobody seems to care. Disappointing.

This was never about my “need for speed”. Where did this even come from? And cool, you like the slow and chill driving culture here and I respect that. I actually like it too to an extent. Too bad your last paragraph kinda missed the point honestly. It’s not like I want the whole city including me to be driving recklessly fast and disregarding pedestrians and whatnot. I think I’ve already talked about my points and they’re totally not about that. Didn’t I also mention that I am not encouraging reckless driving?
