Buses are one of the main transportation in the metro. Especially going to my Makati office, its one of the mammoths ruling EDSA. After spending a lot of time riding this transpo, I came to a conclusion that these buses are the primarily cause of heavy traffics. They do a quick right turn, change lanes, harrass with big horns and sudden stop for passenger pickups/unloads.
Standing on the Bus
It's probably one of the annoying things to see when I first came here in Manila. People standing should not happened. These buses have a max passenger capacity located near the entrance and just right above the tires. And those numbers represent something which the conductor ignores. Moreso, the worst part of is that those bus conductors try to squeeze in as much people as it can just to take all the passengers going to makati. It's just not right.. It's greedy, selfish and troublesome. What happened to Filipino's 'dangal' in this case?
Roaring Horns
I have lots of experience wherein I'm beside a bus and they tend to push their very load horns. I don't know what's up to them but as you know, those horns are so horrible in the ears. I bet if there is a research study on bus drivers, non-aircon bus drivers would probably have a high hearing loss. This has to be regulated.I think there are plenty of buses for everyone. If these buses don't tend to pickup more passengers when it is full, i'm pretty sure that metro would be not be as congested as it is now.As for the passengers, pakiusap naman if you see buses that are full. Don't ride on it just step down the bus. I noticed some drivers are rude. As soon as you stepped the bus platform, you are not allowed to go down because its loading zone? Geez, karma to those drivers. Have experienced a lot of cases like these.
