Thank you for taking the time to study the beginner’s guide to driving in the Philippines. This handbook will help you survive driving in the Philippines and will make sure you cause as much traffic and inconvenience as you can on your journey to becoming a certified Pinoy driver. Everything in this handbook will be based on two principles. Learn them well and commit them to heart. The first rule of driving in the Philippines is: You are more important than other people on the road. The second rule of driving in the Philippines is: There are no rules. Ready? Step on the gas, pull out without looking, and let’s begin. Right-Of-Way Courtesy and common sense dictates respecting the right-of-way of others, vehicles and pedestrians alike. However, you are driving in the Philippines. Remember our first rule? Nobody is more important than you. Here, whoever yields loses. So go ahead and block everybody! - See more at: The beginner's guide to driving in the Philippines - InqPOP!
Last year i had my first go at driving in Dumaguete Can you imagine i picked up my car at Kia and had to drive to Valencia at 4.30pm my wife said i was screaming at the other drivers to get on their own side of the road by the time i got to the city from sibulan i had decided it was either them or me so i became one of them as NO one obeyed the road rules i found out later there are no rules after three weeks of driving i felt right at home But when i got back to Australia the first day i got a ticket for speeding 54 in a 50 zone.. cant wait to get back to Dumaguete
