"KEEP INTERSECTION AND PEDESTRIAN LANE OPEN" says the white street sign below the stoplight. The left green light hasn't come on yet and this Innova driver, the ethical and disciplined Filipino citizen that he is, decides to cut in front of those who patiently wait in line on the leftmost lane. Either we have an illiterate driver here or just another douchebag on Philippine streets.
The fact that this is typical and barely newsworthy is sad. We ask our lawmakers to play by the rules and yet we can't. Napoles, if the allegations are true, took advantage of weak law enforcement regarding the monitoring of discretionary funds disbursement. It wasn't a legal loophole; it's just that no one was really watching. That's the same thing this driver took advantage--and that many others do as well.
Don't be a hypocrite. Follow the law, or shush about Janet Lim Napoles and the lawmakers.
