No pushing, please
The Metro Rail Transit trains are always overcrowded. People push and shove their way inside the coaches even when these are already full, a situation that may lead to injuries.—Oli, Quezon City

A black Mercedes Benz with plate number XKG 535 was traveling on the southbound lane of EDSA from across SM Megamall. It was followed by an Innova with plate number ZCX 762 with blinking hazard lights and escorted by a motorcycle rider with “wangwang” (siren). The motorcycle rider was in a dark-blue uniform. He made all the motorists stop so that the convoy could pass.

Muntinlupa Police patrol car with plate number SJH 167 just extorted P1,000 from the driver of our truck for an alleged traffic violation.

Rains have washed out the asphalt overlay in some sections of the bridge, an indication that [...]
There are potholes everywhere in Makati City, particularly on the streets of Kamagong, Zapote and Kakarong, the area going to Villamor Base and both lanes of South Superhighway. The presidency may have changed hands but the complaints remain the same. I wonder, where did the road users’ tax go? We taxpayers are not benefiting from [...]
At around midnight last Sunday, September 11, I was in a passenger jeepney going to Sucat in Parañaque City, when our driver had an altercation with the driver of a beige Toyota Camry (XMK 838) in front of Mareclo subdivision. The driver of the Camry got out of his car and placed his hand on [...]
I always report to the LTFRB reckless taxi drivers, drivers who verbally abuse customers and taxi drivers who insist on charging commuters beyond what is on the meter. And if you don’t want to file a lawsuit and attend hearings, all LTFRB does is file a report. They say they will contact the party involved [...]
The driver of a tricycle (San Jose #45) charged us P30 from Parco Grocery on Del Monte Avenue to Igdalig Street, Manresa, Quezon City.
