Di Pa Tayo Tapos
Today I blew my top over a stupid traffic situation. I was dying to get home because I haven't slept since I woke up last night and I was so tired from walking around the mall awhile ago. The minute I got into my car I was looking forward to finally getting my much deserved rest. But I knew there's going to be some slight traffic since the road leading to our subdivision is currently under construction and it's mostly one-way, kumbaga antayan ever ito. There are parts on the road that you really have to stop and give way for vehicles driving on opposite direction.
It was a smooth drive from SM City to traffic-striken Ampid. I was even telling my mom that it was so rare that there was no traffic in Ampid. I was very thankful. Then yung kalye going to our subdivision, walang dumadaan na vehicle or any tricycle. Nice! Almost close to our subdivision's entrance, there was a tricycle na makakasalubong ko. But the tricycle stopped to give way for me. To my surprise, may isang SUV na nag-overtake dun sa tricyle. Yes, sasalubungin nya ko! I wasn't about to give in coz yung aatrasan ko would be about 100 meters back. I didn't move yet hoping he'd move back. Pro gago yung driver. Since i didn't move, he was the one who moved forward. As in head on! Tinutukan nya talaga si Teepee! He was so determined na paatrasin ako or else bubungguin nya ko! I turned my engine off and swore not to move. Patigasan na 'to! Because I knew I was right. I know I'm not the best driver in the world and I have my katangahans when it comes to driving but I knew kanina I was right. Sabi ng kuya ko, in any traffic situation, kung tama ako I don't have to give in. He also said that girls won't always get special treatment on the road even if I flash my sweetest smile because most people think that lady drivers are dumb. Anyway, my mom got off from Teepee and talked to the driver of the SUV. He was insisting na tama sya. Nakita na nga nya tumabi na yung nasa una nya, sumige pa din sya! Soon enough cars and tricycles were filling-up the road and it was already a scene because the driver had the guts to raise his voice at my mom. That was too much! Much to my dismay, my mom decided to give in and moved the barricdes so that I can let the stupid SUV pass. Paksyet! I was shaking with anger. I wanted to punch him or kick him in the groin. Actually hanggang ngayon nanggigigil ako sa galit. Usually when I'm that angry, I burst into tears. But not that point. I won't give him the pleasure of seeing me cry. Grrrrrr I'm so angry!
RMK 429 driver, di pa tayo tapos! I know it's a waste to get angry over traffic. Senseless killings have been reported due to traffic misunderstandings. But Pinoy drivers have to learn!
