An FX taxi experience . . . .
By Mary Palms
I just want to share my experience riding an FX taxi, the one they must fill up all the seats first before they will depart on their terminal. And this experience brings what we are really are as Filipino to my personal opinion.
We are seated at the back of the FX, the traffic jam on the road was too heavy (pasig area), and the driver decided to do a counter flow, after about 500 meters we are stop by a traffic enforcer. The driver push a device of some sort then below the steering wheel smoke started popping out. The enforcer is now at the driver side waiting for the driver to lower the window. When the the driver lowered the window, he was telling the enforcer that there is something wrong with his vehicle that is why he counterflowed, pointing to the smoke inside the vehicle (wow high tech na pala mga alibis sa FX). Then the passengers start making bulungan (hahaha bulungan pero naririnig ko) ” kailangan lang ng pang meryenda niyan kaya tayo hinuhuli”, “talagang mga ito mga abala eh..”, bigyan mo na ng pang meryenda..”
Kudos to the traffic enforcer he did not believe the driver alibis and he did not hesitate taking the driver license and gave a ticket to the driver, since by the looks of it the driver is trying to buy his way out of it.. (buti nga na tiketan ka hehehe).
To the passengers saying all sort of bad things to the enforcer, did you not realize who was at fault on that scenario. Kinampihan pa ninyo yung driver noh.. alam ninyo namang mali….We are 11 on that FX including the driver and almost 82% of the passenger is saying that sort of things to the enforcer on that current scenario. What is happening to us Filipino, we are saying that our government is corrupt, and yet we neglected the facts the we are too are corrupt by the simple things we do. We are always blaming our government about all sort of bad things happening and yet we are not doing something different w/ ourselves.
To change the people in the Philippines kailangan yatang patayin 10 years old up para mawala corruption dito sa Pilipinas just my opinion, dahil wala na talaga eh.
