[Shikaku]

Waley, nganga.. change is scuming.

Agree

Hahaha! These occurrences are far between, compared to your idol's time when it was almost everyday.

 

Eto yun incidents nun kay Kalbo:

January 20, 2011 – A southbound train stopped near the Santolan station after a break pad got stuck. Passengers noticed a foul odor from the break pad, causing them to panic. Some sustained minor injuries.

March 21, 2011 – A coach of a southbound train suddenly got detached as it approached the Kamuning station. No one was hurt in the said incident.

February 7, 2012 – Only the northern half of the MRT was operational for two hours in the morning after a technical problem was found at the Guadalupe station.

March 19, 2013 – Trains were prevented from turning around and heading north from the Taft station, paralyzing the whole northbound trip. The move was implemented as a safety precaution due to disruption in electricity.

March 26, 2014 – At least 8 passengers were hurt after a southbound train suddenly stopped at the Guadalupe station. The sudden hard stop caused passengers to lose balance and trip or fall. Most of the passengers were rushed to the Makati Medical Center. (READ: Driver lapse causes MRT 3 accident)

June 3, 2014 – Lightning struck in the Kamuning area and hit one of the MRT's power lines, partly paralyzing operations from the North Avenue to the Shaw stations. Repairs were made and the system was restored after almost two hours.

2011 at 2014 lang ang may 2 incidents per year.

True mas madami kaysa sa naunang administrasyon, pero kung padamihan lang ang usapan at araw-araw na sira, eh panalo yun Dutete administrasyon dun, o di mo ba napapansin dahil sa pagka narrow-minded mo? Ang normal nga ngayon sa MRT 3 diba laging may sira at ang binibilang na lang yun mga araw na tumatakbo siya na walang problema?

In 2017 there was an average of 10 breakdowns PER WEEK.

January-March 2018 - 44 breakdown incidents.

Deterioration isn't an overnight thing. It started from somewhere and it started with the Dwende.

Duterte inherited a problem that began with the imbecile's administration due to changing of service providers, from a competent one to an incompetent one. Edited December 17, 2018 by will robie

[Dark Omen]

As of now I've seen the new wagons of MRT ay ginagamit na nila I hope magtuloy tuloy na at sana iimplement na nila ang bawal bumili ng sasakyan pag walang parking space

And which in turn started from the previous admin.

Because you said so? No basis at all.

[tk421]

Not just because I said (and experienced it so), I already gave proof that the problems began during the dwarf lady's time. But I wouldn't bet on someone with a memory span of a bee to remember that far.

[camus]

you want to solve the traffic problem within 1 month? its easy.

 

just remove ALL the special privileges of politicians and their families. walang vip treatment. make them go through life like the rest of us ordinary citizens.

make them wait through hours and hours of gridlocked traffic.

make them line up at LTO to renew their license, line up to get their nbi clearance, line up at DFA to get their passports,

line up at city hall to get business permits, line up to NSO to get birth certificates, and so on....

 

politicians dont know and dont care because they dont have to suffer like we do.

make them experience our pain and i guarantee you, solve lahat ng problems natin within 1 month.

Sa kayabangan din ng Pinoy kaya nagtraffic. SUVs amp tapos kakasikip ng kalsada rito. Tapos bibili ng malaking sasakyan at iilan pero walang parking.

 

Nung nasa Australia ako, walang number coding. Kahit may saskayan ay public transport ginagamit. Di rin puro SUVs kahit na maluwag mga daanan. Di rin bili ng bili kung ano bago.

Malaki ang Australia pero konti lang ang tao doon. Population density is low. Iba ang situwasyon nila, kumpara sa Pilipinas.

 

Hindi sa dami ng SUV ang dahilan ng pagsisikip ng mga kalsada.

 

Kulang ang kalsada, kulang ang MRT/Commuter Trains, kulang ang bus, at kulang ang Pasig river ferryboats. Sobra ang karag-karag na jeepney, tricycle, padyak,, etc...

sjdm bulacan is getting there

When Tolentino was interviewed by ABS, he mentioned that he will push for the emergency powers for traffic. I hope he gets the chairmanship of the public services committee. The former chairman was useless as the chairman of that committee.

[dungeonbaby]

What is Tolentino's plan for Manila traffic, though?

 

 

I wish there was a system whereby we could report erring drivers easily. Where I live, there are two intersections where everyone complies with traffic rules because enforcers are stationed there. A couple of blocks away from those intersections, people get away with illegal turns and speeding. If everyone could report a violation, having proof of said violation with dashcam footage, and receive a small incentive for this I bet drivers would fall in line.

Its not his job to have a plan on traffic. He failed during Pnoys time, now as a Senator people from DoTr just need his support to give them power to implement their plans which was deprived by Poe.

[dungeonbaby]

That'd explain why people vote on loyalties versus platforms.

 

If he were to chair a committee maybe he should at least have some idea how the government might fix the problem. It's not like the DOTr has been free of issues.

 

Anyway, Tolentino did relaunch the Pasig River ferry system and he did stop oversize advertising beside roads; I'd say he has a vision in his head of how to approach this monster of a problem.

Poe was a disappointment even though she did seem to be asking the right questions. Whatever happened to the case against Abaya, I wonder.
