June 21st, 2009 07:08 PM #63^Good point. Hindi naman makakareklamo yung nasa likod kasi 100km/h lang talaga ang speed limit. Pero pag nababagalan ako sa nasa harap ko, naghahanap na lang ako ng ibang lane na maluwag. Ayoko na ilawan. Tutal makukulit din yung ibang nasa overtaking lane. Maluwag na nga sa kanan, ayaw pa rin tumabi kahit mabagal.

IMHO flashing to high beam is a preventive measure and a way of informing the oncoming or vehicle in front of you to be aware of your presence. Subjective kasi yan. May mga nag flashers just for the sake na gusto nila humarurot na wala namang available lane. That happened to me in the wee hours of last week at q.ave. A silver Nissan Patrol 3.0L was flashing me starting from Q.ave cirlce hanggang nandun na kami sa ilalim ng q.ave underpass kaya nagtataka ako kung baket ako ang flina flash niya ng multiple times eh free naman yung katabing lane? So after 10 seconds of tailing me with continous flashing eh iniwan ko na siya, he was doing 160kph+ I was doing almost 200kph. Dun ko siya iniwan sa ilalim kasi clear ang visibility ko na walang obstruction or mga taong tumatawid kaya safe to go at speed.
On the other hand may times na justified ang pag flash mo like these scenarios:
1) may mga trust-fund kids sa Guilys na hinihinto lang mga auto nila erpat and ermat sa gitna ng kalsada just to show off their riced out civic or lancers. Problem is that they feel like they own the road at parang walang mga naka hilerang mga sasakyan sa likod nila and worse, Audi Q7 ko ang haharangan nila!
2) may mga mababagal magpatakbo sa high way. Train of thought nila na if you drive below 50kph eh that's considered "safe driving" pero ang alam ko nga sa high way eh minimum 60kph.
3) mga lane hoggers. Those drivers who use two lanes at sa gitnang white grid line sila pumupwesto.
4) those who use their cellphones while driving. Kitang kita mo sila kaya you either honk or high beam them. There were a few times na biglang prepreno sila or pag katabi mo sila or if you're beside them they're not aware na they're starting to swerve.
The using of horns and high beam is a passive safety feature of your vehicle. It's actually a preventive measure. That's the reason why it's there.

July 1st, 2009 03:08 AM #66well I feel the opposite way. Actually I have beaten 3 Santa Fe already in NLEX. Isa yung maangas na tumitingin pa tapos iiwan ka na akala mo kayang kaya kang iwanan pero in the end siya pala ang iniwan ko. nung pinauna ko na hindi na makatingin siguro sa hiya na niya... hehehe
second yung nag flash ng lights. What I shared in my previous post...
third yung may sticker na Tsikot.com sa likod. nakikipag unahan sa akin. in the end naiwan din...
bottomline, wala yan sa pamahalan ng kotse. nasa performance na iyan at sa driver. :-)
peace
