Manila Traffic .. on a good day !!

I visited the Philippines this past summer, and traffic in Manila is nuts. The video is shot from the back seat of a taxi, and towards the end of the clip, you can hear my fiancee singing. She is awesome, and hopefully we shall be a "duet" eventually.

great you visited in manila, nice love song , who is the artist of that song?

[thecrooner4jc]

several songs are sung during the taxi ride, and I don't know who sings the song "You take my breath away". But the last song where my GF is singing is by Boz Skaggs, and it is on his "greatest hits" CD.

In Manila, the traffic is bad because the drivers of cars and jeeps drives soooooo slooooooow . . . . . zzzzzzzz! :-)

[thecrooner4jc]

yes .. and they drive so slow because there are almost no traffic rules and everybody hogs the lanes. Thanks for checking out my video :)

But I think you enjoyed your visit to Manila? Actually for me, all in all, Manila is not such a bad place. :-)

[thecrooner4jc]

yes indeed, I enjoyed my visit very much. Most of the people in the Philippines are very friendly and hard-working, and Manila has such beautiful sunsets too !!

[mitsupitsu44]

that's just normal traffic in manila..when i was there the first time in 1993,to marry my sweetheart,i had to travel for several days through manila ta arrange papers for the visa, i had nothing bu traffic jams

[thecrooner4jc]

I agree .. horrendous. No lanes, rarely a traffic light, and virtually no rules. Thanks for checking out my video.

Manila's traffic is horrendous, probably even worse than Los Angeles. I've been to Manila and you can't escape the traffic and the pollution.
