    Well, its a fact that there are no traffic rules in place.
    Dumaguetenos will drive or overtake wherever is enough space for half a bike. They tend to cut into your way when you are supposed to go, they will give you gently way, when they are supposed to go and you stopped already to give them their right of way.

    But then again, maybe you have noticed a set of traffic rules posted on a huge poster, when you drive from the capitol south heading into the city. When you are at the Y split, there it is all layed out :D

    No Tickets

    Isn't it nice to realize you will never get a ticket for running a stoplight, or a stop sign here. There are none to run here in Dumaguete.
    I went through a motorcycle check point with no PH drivers license. With confidence I handed over my California Driver's license, which was acceptable to the officer, even though it had expired 16 years earlier. I also did not have any paper work on my motorcycle as I left it at home, but I passed the critical question by the officer: "Are you going to marry a beautiful Filipina?" I am still trying to figure out how that related to my motorcycle or my driving ability but I am happy I answered it correctly. There is no question I will marry a beautiful Filipina, who wants to marry an ugly one. :D

    Hey it was a joke, the point was that this is the best question these guys could put forth to me, while I drove with an 16 year expired foreign drivers license and had no paper work on the motorcycle. I did not even asked whether there was an eligible relative available or if she was beautiful or ugly of if she was a she...lol.

    ACR Card Ugly

    Tom, when I went to pick up my ACR card, the lady asked my name....funny I thought because my picture was on the card, and I was standing in front of here. Then I got the card. I understand why she does not look at the pictures. My head looked like it have been put in a vise and squeezed until my ears were ready to burst... great thing photo shop. So when I want to see the possibility of how ugly I could really be, I look at my ACR card. We can always resort to distorted mirrors or alcohol to get a better perspective on how beautiful we could be.

    An old American joke: "How do you make a four (lady) look like a ten Consume a six pack of beer."
