    andami din sa NLEX nyan... 60 ang takbo sa leftmost "fast" lane... wtf??

    pag inoovertake mo na binibilisan, parang na iinsulto. ilawan mo ayaw tumabi. it seems people have forgotten the rules of old, andami na din kasi bagong drivers ngayon with none of the old school training.

    wala ka na magagawa jan dre... if i were you i'd get the fastest, most powerful engined car you can buy. sa expressways, you have no obligation to follow anybody for miles and miles just bec they're slow. as soon as the way is clear, put the pedal to the metal and punch that baby for all it's worth. your reward is a dozen or so miles of clear, open road anyway...

    But on NLEX, if the Patrol car spots you you're canned (Seen this several times, a friend was also caught for staying on the leftmost lane too long).

    Sa Star Toll based from my experience, pag nag flash naman ako umaalis sila sa fast lane but sometimes may ilan na walang pakialam. Kahit mag flash ka pa ng 4 or 5x, dedma. So instead na magpakahirap ako at mainis, overtake na lang ako..E di naiwan siya.. less stress. pwede ka pa nga mag over 100 if you like..120..140.. kahit 160 pa dahil walang pulis but pangit naman daan kaya di rin enjoy. Tama nga, meron lang pulis pag may accident.

    Ni wala ngang lanes sa SLEX.

    IMO, what's more dangerous are those drivers who speed up when you try to overtake them on our 2-lane national highways.

    I've encountered such drivers going north and south. pahamak talaga.

    TS, agree! yan ang sagot and wala na remedyo dyan, kita mo bagong bago ride niya di alam gamitin ng tama

    instead of isipin ang mga katangahan ng ilan unahan mo na lang ng biglaan. kung ayaw tumabi sa labas mo kunin.... now kung gusto mo gumanti dun ka naman sa harap niya pumwesto but for me no need na lang - di ko naman siya kilala para antayin eh

    fully agree. noong unang panahon, me mag flash lang sa likod tumatabi na mga drivers. i still do. pero karamihan hindi na.
    kesa mabuwisit ka, mag slalom ka na lang sa expressway at 120KPH

    You also need to check kung may "pupuntahan" yung nasa harap mo.

    Yung iba kasi flash ng flash, kahit may katabi yung nasa una, at mahaba linya sa harap.

    Those who do are mostly bus and red plate drivers who seem to expect you to drive onto the median to your left or fly up to the sky above just to let them pass.

South highways filled with uneducated motorists
