My Issue, like the traffic situation in Metro Manila
Commentator: “Last Friday's traffic was extremely heavy. After a brief downpour, there
were flash floods that rendered some streets impassable. Vehicles stood bumper to
bumper and moved inch by inch. And yet, no traffic cop was in sight. To avoid the traffic
snarl, the jeepneys detoured to secondary routes. This left the passengers stranded in
the crowded waiting sheds. It's simply frustrating. Now that there are too many vehicles
in Metro Manila, traffic management must certainly be improved."
