electronic pass will solve the problem on toll gates

Couldn't agree more.

BTT: I think the most feasible solution is to have ambulant tellers in the gasoline stations along NLEX.

Most people have at least 1 stopover, so while they're lounging off, they could also pay their toll in a kiosk in the station.

MATES in SLEX has actually approached our company regarding this idea. Hopefully it pushes through.

Parang may nabasa ako na pde na magbayad ng toll fee sa selected gas stations ng slex. Along slex mismo ko nabasa.

well, one has to expect that when faced with an exodus of that magnitude.
the americans have something similar during their own holidays..
we can do a singapore, but it might trigger a civil war.
heh heh.

but yes... there is something strange about tingi-tinging bayaran ng toll fees.. and i feel that "tamad lang silang gawan ng paraan".

it's not that those in control are "tamad gawan ng paraan", sa tingin ko dahil hindi naman cost effective at feasible yung all-rfid/tag system. masyado lang maarte yang mga senador, ayaw naiipit sa traffic kaya ganyan agad ang bukambibig.

not everyone who owns a vehicle passes by either expressway on a daily or weekly, no - make that monthly basis. ako personally i make around 2-3 round trips on NLEx and 5-6 round trips on SLEx annually. and those are peak seasons pa.

waiting in line for 1-3 minutes everytime i use the expressways is more efficient that purchasing those tags which costs thousands. iba pa ang tags ng north at south.

BUT if i can use the same tag to use the LRT/MRT system maybe i'd consider buying one. hehehe

i dont remember any senator complaining about the NLEx traffic during the centenary of the INC.

^iwas pusoy mga politiko pag involved taong simbahan.

How about integrating all E-pass tags. Coastal road, SLEX, NLEX, Tplex, etc. Majority naman siguro ng motorist gumagamit ng kahit isang express way.

It also took us 11 hours to get to get to Baguio from Alabang, we probably spent 3 hours in tollgates and another 2 in the traffic in Sison.

It took us a brisk 5.5 hours to get home without any shenanigans

Personally kaya hindi ako nag-EC Tag is because hindi ko mamonitor yung trips. I reimburse my business travels per trip - pag EC Tag kasi buong statement lang diba?

Masyadong reactive talaga mga pulitiko natin

Personally, ang tollgate congestion ay pwede maayos kung lahat ng tollbooth ay gumagana at lahat ng tao ay ready na ang kanilang bayad. Madalas kasi, pag nandun na sa tollbooth, tsaka palang nagprepreapre ng bayad. Mas madalas nagkakatagalan sa pagbayad eh yun class 2 and 3 vehicles.

This year, ang gripe ko eh ang exit ng NLEX going to EDSA Balintawak. This year ko lang napansin na palaging traffic ang side na yan. Then after naman ng Balintawak market eh smooth flowing na.

Exactly the same problem with Nepa-Q Mart, and all other markets situated along main thoroughfares - trucks unloading goods, buses loading passengers, shoppers double parking, and so on.

Di ko gets bakit ayaw patulan ng MMDA yung mga yan, sobrang easy target for obstruction of traffic kung 3 lanes na sinasakop nila.
