I would say I am one of the female bike commuters in Manila and Makati. I bike to work almost everyday. Commuting using my bike helped me save time and money.
Last November 13, one of the most remembered incident in my bike commuting going home. Me and my bike buddy Marlon Ricafort went to Camp Aguinaldo to do some loops as part of my preparation in this upcoming Nuvali Dirt Weekend race. We were able to chat fellow bikers Wreachelle Cordova and Joseph Cuison who just won in this recent Xterra Philippines: Putik Pare under Mixed Category. Wreachelle and Joseph gave me some tips and advise on best trails in Metro.
Marlon plotted our route on our way home to Manila. On Club Filipino Ave cor Ortigas Avenue, while waiting for the traffic light to turn green there were vehicles both in front and the back of me. When the light changed to green, before the vehicle in front of me could move forward, I was hit in the rear part of my bike when the vehicle behind me lunged forward. The force of the vehicle moving forward caused his vehicle to ride on top of my rear tires, and crush it with the weight of his vehicle, folding it in half. I retrieved the bicycle from under the front side of his car.
At this point, I waived at him signaling him to park his car so we can figure out what to do about the accident when he, instead of stopping, left he scene of the accident.
Since the normal Ortigas Ave. traffic stopped him from going far, I was able to approach him to talk to him about the accident. He mentioned that he will just park his car along Wilson St. But, again, he left the scene for a 2nd time. I believe he did so purposefully since a) he did not stop as he said he would b) he sped off so fast, running away as fast as he can.
After the accident, I deposited my bicycle at Life Cycle, Greenhills, then looked for the police within the premises. They informed me that it should be reported to Traffic Enforcement of the San Juan Police station, where I filed my complaint. There they advised my what to do, including medical and police complaint procedures.
Yesterday morning, November 18. I was called by the Santolan Substation in San Juan, to report at 7:00pm Nov 19, 2010. regarding the accident. I asked the police if the person who caused the accident will be there. He informed me that he has been summoned. I plan to be there tonight with some of my Bike Commuter friends.
I asked some media sources if they can provide me info about the erring person/vehicle owner, I was provided the following:
Registered to: Jozel Francisco Santos
Address: 5353 Encomienda St., Bo. Olympia, Makati City
Plate no: ZSS107
Make: KIA
Model: Sportage
Year: 2009
Color: Black Cherry
Registered as of 11/17/2008
Luckily, I got minor scratches on my legs then went to Cardinal Santos for cleaning my wounds. I am appealing to all motorist, please give us little respect. We got two wheels and legs to go to work or home.
I would like to thank my bike buddy Tina Zamora of I Love to Ride my Bicycle and her husband Dennis for accompanying me at the Police Station and driving me home.
Do have have same experience as mine? Please share it to us and tell us the things you do after the accident.
I almost experience the same scenario last week. It was a sign of relief when the jeep stops before it hit my rear wheel. Aside from that, some motorcyclists seems to discriminate bike commuters, especially when I heard one of them telling me, “bike kasi may bike dito”. I just thought “anong problema neto?” hahahaha
Pretty great post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wished to mention that I have truly enjoyed surfing around your blog posts. After all I will be subscribing on your feed and I’m hoping you write again soon!
I’ve learned a lot from your blog here. Keep on going,I will keep an eye on it. Two thumbs up *wink*
I stumbled upon this I have found It positively useful. Were you able to catch the driver?
Hi Biloggirl, bilib ako na nakakapag-bike ka sa trabaho. Ako rin, balak ko ‘yan gawin pagdating ko ng Pinas. Kahit na may karapatan nga mga bisikleta sa kalsada, ang problema, kakaunti lang ang nakakaalam nito. Kaya lalo na rin siguro na kailangang hikayatin mga tao na magbisikleta, para hindi na minority ang mga nagba-bike.
Sana ok ka na, at sana ma-resolba ito nang maigi. Pag binabasa ko mga comments dito sa post mo na ito, naiinis ako at naiisip ko na mahirap nga maging Kristyano tulad ng sabi ni Joey Camou.
Ewan, basta nag-post na lang ako dito para suportahan mga nagbibisikleta dahil marami talagang nagagawang mabuti ang pagba-bike (pagpapababa ng polusyon, fr one). Ingat!
Qamatis, kita tayo pag uwi mo dito. email mo ako i.am@biloggirl.com
Ano na ang balita dito sa kaso, Nanagot na ba yung salarain?
pa update biloggirl..
Hi Sir,
Hindi naman po dumating sa invitation ng San Juan Police Station. Nasiraan na po ako ng loob at nawalan po ng gana nung bumili po ako ng bagong wheelset. 21K yung bago kong wheelset at sa tingin ko kahit humingi ng dipensa hindi po nya gagawin.
Nakita naman po ng mga anak nya at asawa kung paano po nya ako tinakbuhan dun sa Wilson Street sa tapat ng Caltex at Zircoh Bar. Sana po, hindi abutin ng mga anak nya ang ginawa nya sa akin.
Just file a criminal complaint for damage to property thru reckless imprudence. Why wait for the idiot to appear at the police station? You already have his name, address and photos.
parang kilala ko si wilabaliw a hehe
raise your hands if you think ibeam is the driver of the kia that hit biloggirl.
Mahirap makipagtalo sa DRIVER na hindi naman nagbike katulad ng MTB na talagang naging hobby na ng karamihan sa atin dahil sa kaibang saya na idinudulot nito.. o kung may bike man siya siguro yung tipo lang na pede nya sakyan dahil may bibilhin sya sa street nila..
Kung may bike ka man.. try mo kaya na sumama sa group rides para malaman mo ang kaibahan ng pagbibisekleta na may bibilhin ka lang sa kalye niyo..
try mo rin magsuot ng pang bike na outfit talaga para ramdam mo na siklista ka..
pag nagawa mo yan siguro magkakaroon ka ng respeto sa kapwa mo siklista at maiintindihan mo na hindi lang para sayo ang kalsada..
Hindi lang ikaw ang may auto.. maraming siklista na mas mamahalin pa ang auto kesa sayo.. ang kaibahan lang siklista din sila kaya ramdam nila ang hinaing ng bawat siklista..
@ibeam, ano ba ang punto mo? ang pag basa ko sa punto mo eh wag na mag bisekleta kaming mga siklista. ang punto mo rin yata eh dahil delikado ang bisekleta sa kalye wag na mag bisekleta. eh hindi mo ba nakikita ang sarili mo? dahil sa galit mo sa mga siklista IKAW mismo ang dahilan kung bakit nagiging mapanganib ang kalye. walang kang karapatan maghari o angkinin ang pangpublikong lansangan. baka nakakalimutan mo na ang mga siklista ay TAO. hindi katulad ng iba dyan na makahawak lang ng manibela ng kotse eh akala nya kung sino na syang HAYOP sa galing “daw” mag maneho.
@Mr. Bean,
ang dami mong EK EK EKLAVU CHORVA CHENES . . . eh iisa lang naman ang pamatay na tanong mo na akala mo Tama? Paulit-ulit . . . Haist . . .
Ito ang Sagot ko,
Matino akong Tao at marami akong Pera, hinding-hindi ko tatakbuhan ang kasalanan ko . . . At kahit kelan hindi naging Tama kung galing sa likod yung bumangga . . . Malamang may Lahi kang Takbuhin . . .
gaya ng sinabi mo . . Makikipag usap ka kung nasa TAMA ka . . Eh hindi mo pala alam, malakas lang ang TAMA mo kaya akala mo TAMA ka . . Tulad ngayon Boy Tama!
hehehe! FLIP TOP na lang oh! Palag? Haha!
DETAILS *
I have a Biker Friend na nabangga din sa likod . . Lipa sya, una tuhod . . Foreigner yung nakadisgrasya . . Maraming saksi . . Tocino ang tuhod at hindi makalakad ng maayos . . . Maga pa yung lulod nya . .
sobrang haba ng discussion nung araw na yun dahil sa mahadera at etchoserang Pinay na asawa nung foreigner na wala naman sa pangyayari kung makialam ay sobra, sa presinto na luminaw ang lahat . . .
after 3 hours. pa nadala at naipa check up yung Biker Friend ko.. Syempre sagot lahat nung naka-bangga . . .
and then ang damage sa Bike ay sirang wheelset, at rd . . Lahat yun ay sasagutin “daw” nung foreigner . . . KASO, sa insurance pa ata . . . Last February pa ata yun . . . Wala din binigay na Daños . . .
suma-tutal, hanggang ngayon wala nang nangyari . . .
kuha ko yung punto ni Mr. Bean, este! Ibeam . . . Kaso Comedy yung dating nya . . . Masakit sa tyan at panga nung nabasa ko mga comments nya . . LOL
ang gusto siguro nyang iparating ay, mauubos/masasayang lang ang oras ni Ma’am Biloggirl sa paghahabol ng hustisya . . . Lalo na’t walang saksi etc etc . . .
pero anu’t-anu pa man ang mangyari . . Sana magwagi ang kabutihan sa kasamaan \m/
@Mr. Bean, pwede ka nang ipalit kay Pidol !! King of Comedy . . lol
I love it! Well, we’ll see bilog naman ang mundo.
Ramdam ko sya…. hahahaha.
Wilabaliw poser .. yun bang friend mo e nasa tama? i mean NASA TAMANG DAANAN? baka naman naka DROGA Friend mo? buti hindi namatay? hays sayang.. anyway IBABALIK KO SAYO MGA SINABI.. DATAILS MO MALI MALI.. ISA PA NAME MO AY NAME NG WORST BAND SA PILIPINAS. TEKA ILAPIT NATIN SA TOPIC. KUNG MAGKAPALIT KAYO NG POSISYON ? IKAW NAKABANGGA? ANONG GAGAWIN MO? O BAWAL MAG SINUNGALING.. ALAM NG DYOS KUNG ANONG UNANG GAGAWIN MO.. 😉

CYCLIST IS LIKE SWIMMING WITH SHARKS!
CYCLIST IS LIKE RABBIT BEATEN BY PITBULL
The bicycle occupies a legal position that is at least equal to that of other vehicles lawfully on the highway, and it is fortified by the fact that usually more will be required of a motorist than a bicyclist in discharging his duty of care to the other because of the physical advantages the automobile has over the bicycle.
…………Accordingly, while the duty of using reasonable care falls alike on a motorist and a bicyclist, due to the inherent differences in the two vehicles, more care is required from the motorist to fully discharge the duty than from the bicyclist. – tapos ang usapan!!
@ ibeam – kung disenteng tao ka at may pinag-aralan, at totoong may silbi ang IQ mo, maiintindihan mo ito. ms.biloggirl is not pusuing the case because she wants to extort money from mr. santos. she’s pursuing the case kasi tinakbuhan siya ni mr. santos na naka-aksidente sa kanya. yun lang. gaya ng sinabi ni micoy, “The bicycle occupies a legal position that is at least equal to that of other vehicles lawfully on the highway.”. di lang motorized vehicles ang may karapatan sa kalsada. may cyclists, pedestrians, at kung anu ano pa. at sigurado akong lahat ng nasa kalsada ay aware sa mga peligro dito. kaya ka naging “out of line” ay dahil sa na hit and run na nga si ms.biloggirl, e papalabasin mo pang parang kasalanan niya. gino-glorify mo pa yung nanghit and run!
jimmy kung hindi ba tumakbo si mr.santos anong mangyayari pag tapos?
anong mangyayari? maraming pwedeng mangyari. pwedeng nadaan sa mabuting usapan. pwede ring hindi. your guess will be as good as my guess..di na natin malalaman yun kasi nga nanakbo si mr.santos.
mas katanggap tanggap pa yung nangyari sa friend ni wilabaliw. at least yung naka-aksidente ay huminto, sumama sa presinto, at sinagot yung pagpapa-check up nung naaksidente nya! at least ginawa niya yung kung ano yung tama. yun pwedeng patawarin at palampasin. dun naman sa bike na di pa sinasagot ng insurance, katanggap tanggap din. ganun talaga pag nagke-claim ka sa insurance. pero di mo pwede sabihing walang mangyayari.
nakakatuwa ka Ibeam. edukadong edukado ang arrive mo.
@ ibeam, you are getting the ire of the people here. i think you are a rich but a short person. are you?
UNCLE BOB LETS FACE IT.. KUNG IKAW YUNG NAKA AKSIDENTE? ANO GAGAWIN MO? KAYA PINAYUHAN KO NALANG SI MISS BILOGGIRL DAHIL WALANG MANG YAYARI. MALIBAN NALANG KUNG SUMAMA SAYO YUNG NAKA AKSIDENTE.
Hi ibeam, i feel your support for your fellow motorists just as much as i feel the warmth support of my fellow bikers to the alleged victim. With the intention of knowing the outcome and fair decision on this incident we bikers will show up on each hearing\invitation\mediation. I hope you can extend your support as a motorist by showing up also. Nothing to hide when your on the right and fair side of things.
eto yung pinaka may sense na reply na nakita ko.. well miss jen pag nasa tama ako i will show up.. pero pag mali? well dun tayo mag kakatalo.. EVEN YOU. MALIBAN NALANG KUNG TALAGANG MAY NAKA KITA SA MGA PANGYAYARI. MARARAMDAMAN NYO SINASABI KO. WELL SA NGAYUN HINDI PAKO NAIINVOLVE SA AKSIDENTE
hindi ko maintindahan ang gusto mo sabihin dito. Ang ibig mo bang sabihin, kung wala ka kasalanan at sa tingin mo ay tama ka, sasama ka or pupunta ka sa presinto. Pero pag alam mo na may kasalanan ka, hindi ka pupunta. Kung baga, kung wala nakakita, at mali ka, tatakbuhan mo na lang or hindi mo aaminin ang kasalanan mo?
lokalboy NAPAKA SIMPLE NG SAGOT .. (PAPAYAG KABANG MAKULONG?)
kung ganun, iresponsable ka nga. Kung may kasalanan ka, panindigan mo. Kung may pagkakamali ka, panagutan mo ang kinalabasan. Kung hindi, ikaw ay iresponsable. Kaya nahihirapan umunlad ang bansa natin gawa sa mga tao na katulad mo. Basta makakalusot, lulusot. Magbago ka na.
Pangalawa, sa pagkakaintindi ko, gusto ka ma meet nun JayCL sa taas. Pero ano ang reply mo?
“We’re willing to wait you there”
which only means that you dont have the guts to meet him alone. No guts, no balls….
Pangatlo, there is no such thing as 12AM. 12MN meron. MN stands for midnight. So who is the brainless now, Dufus?
Guys wag niyo na patulan si IBEAM.. Bumababa nga level ng IQ natin jan.. Based sa comment niyo tumahimik na lang po kayo dahil wala po kayong naitutulong.. nakakagulo pa kayo sa sitwasyon Manong. Kung gusto niyo magpa bangga lumabas na kayo ng bahay niyo.. pahiram ko sayo bike ko.
mamahalin ba bike mo? para may pursyento ka ren? kung yung bike mo e nagkakahalaga ng 12000 usd bakit hindi? 😛
Hi Biloggirl, Will Mr. Jozel Francisco Santos pay the damage? <- GUYS is this the reason why? well akala ko tama mga comments nyo tssk tssk kung ganyan ba e PWEDE NA REN AKONG MAGPA BANGGA SA KALSADA GAMIT ANG BISEKLETA.. PERO MAY UTAK AKO.. HINDI BISEKLETANG MUMURAHIN ANG GAGAMITIN KO.. MAG PAPABANGGA AKO SA MGA MAYAYAMAN PARA.. TSSKK ALAM NYO NA? AHAHA GANYAN PALA MGA HINANAING NYO. 😀

EEWWWW!!! SQUAKS!
whehehehe
ibeam – bobo ka na tanga ka pa!
edwardo 😀 ano yun?
Hi Biloggirl, Will Mr. Jozel Francisco Santos pay the damage?
If he is truly connected with DMCD (http://www.dmdcpa.com.ph), I hope his company learned this incident. The reputation of their company is at stake if more people and company seeking their service will know they have a professional who is not acting as one. His action on the incident is certainly not acceptable.
If we are looking for a service of DMCD, I will recommend to get anyone qualified from DMCD. Mr. Santos should not be on the list of qualified because certainly he is not someone we can trust.
San Juan Police-Traffic Enforcement Div sent him a summon letter to report to the station last Thursday as expected, he didn’t appear. Kung, alam nyo lang how much I wanted to see this guy not just to pay the damages but also to give him a lesson.
That’s terrible, i believe there are still many bikers out there who in one way or another have experienced like just what had happened to you.. The good thing is you went through the pocess of complaining..marami talgang undisciplined drivers kahit saan ..more often they don’t recognize road etiquette. lalo na yung mga home grown drivers natin who learned driving through experience and made it their profession with out taking into consideration of others.
To ibeam : I just sincerely hope that nothing like what happened to Ms. Biloggirl happens to any of your loved ones. Your comments are uncalled for and line of thinking is way out of line. One thought though : KARMA.
glad to hear you’re OK Jen. kasuhan na ng HIT and RUN (reckless ekek…) yan kumag na yan!!! do i smell an upgrade or better… a new bike Jen 🙂
dyan kayo magaling.. mam-bully sa upgrade.. btw, ano kaya magandang wheelset hahahaha.
not only are you a lucky biker since you only had minor injuries, you are also a brave biker for pursuing the case. best regards!
Thanks Jack.
The bicycle occupies a legal position that is at least equal to that of other vehicles lawfully on the highway, and it is fortified by the fact that usually more will be required of a motorist than a bicyclist in discharging his duty of care to the other because of the physical advantages the automobile has over the bicycle.
At the slow speed of ten miles per hour, a bicyclist travels almost fifteen feet per second, while a car traveling at only twenty-five miles per hour covers almost thirty-seven feet per second, and split-second action may be insufficient to avoid an accident. It is obvious that a motor vehicle poses a greater danger of harm to a bicyclist than vice versa. Accordingly, while the duty of using reasonable care falls alike on a motorist and a bicyclist, due to the inherent differences in the two vehicles, more care is required from the motorist to fully discharge the duty than from the bicyclist. Simply stated, the physical advantages that the motor vehicle has over the bicycle make it more dangerous to the bicyclist than vice versa. (G.R.

what he said. Second the motion na lang ako. Ano may hihirit pa?
nice one!
Nice one atty micoy!
patawarin sana ako ng Diyos baka makita ko yan hindi ako makapag pigil masuntok ko sya!
Sorry miss if sobra daming comments ko. This is a sore issue for me too. specially since I encountered the same thing today. Though fortunately not as disastrous as yours. I was waiting in line in a one way street, dutifully waiting behind another car since no other space available. Take not I was well at the side her para di makaistorbo. When I started to move forward. Bigla akong binangga from behind. I looked back it was a taxi. Buti na lang he was apologetic. Or else was ready to give him a good pounding.
I think the morale of the story is this. Its a dangerous world out there. We try our best to be courteous but meron pa din jerkos out there. Whether biker or motorist I strive to be the rumored courteous pinoy that the Bureau of Tourism touts about.
Sadly I cannot bike in the Philippines as I would probably do in Copenhagen or Singapore. So I do it ala Pinas din. But try to push it to better ideals. I am a big fellow so I think that factored in when the guy apologized. But I have encountered jeeps trying to run me off the road. I am not still not successful as a christian to turn the other cheek. As in this situation the jeepney driver in question was confronted with an inconvenient stoplight and the biker in question reaching him and asking ” WHAT NOW ?”. Hope you turn out okay sister biker.
bat kase nakaharang ka sa daan? alam mo naman ang consequence pag nasa kalye ka tama ? yung mga biker dapat nasa gilid lang kung walang bike lane na makikita pwede shortcut nalang.. hindi naman kase motorista ang maitatawag sayo kundi bisekleta. payo ko lang sayo
So using your logic, pag nakita kita na tumawid sa kalye pwede kitang banggain ha. Pang kotse nga lang di ba. O sige partida na lang. Pag wala ka sa pedestrian lane dedo ka agad sa akin pag nakakotse ako.
Most of the riders who bother writing. Are responsible riders so your comments are way out of line. Specially with most bikes of these people costing above 10 thousand. I don’t think they would put themselves in harms way. Knowing how much they could lose.
tumawid ng ano? ni kailanman hindi ako nag bibike sa KALSADA. kung yung mga motor nga nadidisgrasya dahil na sasanggi e. bisekleta pa kaya? OUT OF LINE? yung BISEKLETA ATA DAPAT ANG SABIHAN MO NG OUT OF LINE.. kung PURO TRAILER TRUCK AT MALALAKING BUS YUNG MGA ANDUN ANO PA KAYANG MANGYAYARI SA KANYA? HA? MISTER OUT OF LINE? TSSKK ISIP ISIP MUNA
motorista lang ba ang pwede sa kalsada?
mga driver na kagaya mo magisip ang dapat tanggalan ng lisensya at turuan sa road courtesy!
WALA AKONG SINASABING MOTORISTA LANG ANG PWEDE SA KALSADA. PWEDE REN YUNG MGA MUKHANG HAYOP NA GAYA MO. IPAPALIWANAG KO SAYO PARA MAINTINDIHAN MO.. BABA KASE NG IQ NG UTAK MO. NABABASA MO BA YUNG MGA SAFETY SIGNAGE? OR SIGNAGE NA NAKA BALANDRA SA MGA KALYE?
ano ibig mong sabihin dito sa sinabi mo?
bat kase nakaharang ka sa daan? alam mo naman ang consequence pag nasa kalye ka tama ? yung mga biker dapat nasa gilid lang kung walang bike lane na makikita pwede shortcut nalang.. hindi naman kase motorista ang maitatawag sayo kundi bisekleta
– ako pa mababa ang IQ? ikaw pala ang bobo e, meron bang signage na nakabalandra sa kalye? tanga ka pala e..
basahin mo maigi ung sinabi mo ungas
Stupid comment! Roads are not only for motor vehicles. And it doesn’t mean if you’re driving a car you’ll hit non-motor vehicle(this includes bikers, pedestrians, and animals) in front of you without care! You’re attitude shows that your not a human being, perhaps you’re satan’s angel…
PARA SA NAKABANGGA: Be responsible enough, pare! Admit you’re mistake. Babae pa yung nabangga mo.
Roads are not only for motor vehicles. ANUNG GUSTO MO? ROADS ARE FOR BICYCLER NALANG? AND SO PANO YAN KAILANGAN SASAKYAN ANG IIWAS SA BISEKLETA? WALANG PWEDENG I BLAME DITO. PAREHAS MALI PERO MAS LAMANG ANG TAMA NG ISANG MOTORISTA. MALALAMAN MO YAN PAGNAGKA SASAKYAN KA.. SANA LANG
May sasakyan at may bisekleta ako, pero hindi ako mangbubunggo ng biker. Utak ipis ka. wag ka mag drive baka makaksidente ka.
Based on your comment your such a stupid and ignorant guy! LOL! Check the laws dude or better yet ask the lawyer as per her situation and you’ll find the answer as to who’s fault is it.
And by the way, please read carefully… your answers are totally out of line. Perhaps we’re talking english, that you don’t understand much, do you? LOL!
By the way, do you know KARMA. Sana hindi mag bike ang mga anak at apo mo. hehe… matakot ka. haha!
mabuti na lang you’re ok. dapat makulong mga ganyan na driver
Time to organize and ride a monthly Critical Mass, if you guys don’t ride one already.
same thing happened to my son about a week ago along maharlika hi-way, bulacan. a white mitsubishi lancer with plate number PHC297. luckily, my son wasn’t hurt. upon follow up, the vehicle is being owned by a policeman in guiguinto and sadly, his comrades won’t speak about the suspects identity.
Maam . Blue wall po yan. I think best recourse ninyo media or if you know the license plate proceed to sue them na.
Meron ako konti exp sa mga singilan, kadalasan di sila sumisipot. Kahit na sa fiscals office na yung kaso, di pa din sila sumisipot. Kung pupunta kasi sila, mapipilitan sila managot sa mga nasira nila at magbayad. Legal demand letter na ang kailangan.
Isang bote ng gin na may kerosene lang ang katapat niyan. iikutan ko minsan ang haybol niyan.
mali pare pinost mo na pangalan mo. Dapat ginawa mo na lang. hehehehe
Glad ur safe ma’am, I’m a female biker too… hope motorist would learn that roads are for bikers also. I’am also wishing and praying that we could have bike lanes here in the Philippines 🙂
if im not mistaken dyule is one of my student in swimming.to bloggirl:right! i have experiences too… way back 2003,gamit ko rin ang mtbike araw-araw papasok sa trabaho at pauwi. tricycle naman na colorum ang bumanga saakin sa subrang bilis ng tricycle at nataohan ako ng tumutulo ang dogo ko sa ulo at nakahang ang katawan ko sa manobela ng bike ko at ang gulong ko nakaipit sa harap ng tricycle. black-out noon ng sakto naman harap ng pinangyarihan ay meurn muniting clinic at tinatanung pa ako kung sino daw magbabayad ng pagamot ko. kinakausap ako habang basag ang bungo ko.(shit) sabi ko pagtatalunan pa ba yan kung ginagamot nyo na ako? nawindang ang babaeng attendant at agad ako xray at nilinis ang mga sugat ko. at 5 tahi sa tagilira ng ulo ako at sa nuo.(sira na nga mukha ko sinira pa?!) badtrip talga! 2 weeks wala akong income dahil indi ako makapasok sa trabaho. at nagpabayad lang ako sa sa hospital bill at gamot.(SSS,PHILHEALT,SICKLEAVE ect. HINDI KO NA PAKINABANGAN!!!) HIRAP NA NGA NG BUHAY MAY TAO PANG WALANG PAKIALAM SA KALSADA!!!
TO ALL BIKERS ALONG THE ROAD, HINDI KA NAG-IISA!!!
bute na lang ms biloggirl hindi grabeh yung nangyari sayo. tried to search his name sa website and i found out he is a CPA well kng sya nga yun tsk tsk tsk…
kurak!!! tapos hindi nya pa ako sinipot noh… bad driver
Miss biloggirl, what time po kayo dadating sa Wilson? Sabi kasi ni Miss Tina 5:45. I will be biking in the area kasi, mangangamusta lang po sana.
thanks guys! hindi naman sya dumating.. nag iisip siguro ng alibi.
Don’t worry jen, we’re all support.
But I’m still glad your safe. Sana maresolve na ang isyung ito. And give justice to us bike commuters and cyclists as a whole.
Bunny, thanks! touched ako sa lahat!
The photo of the guy with the same name was removed from the website shown. Baka siya nga yun.
let me see.
Babae ka Kasi, kung ako yun baka basagin ko pa mukha nya kahit matanda na sya!
I will update you guys tonight. Wish me luck! Justice for Bikers
Still glad that you are safe sis…hope this issue be resolved asap….
Take care always..
Hi! I am also a female biker and I dread being in any accident involving my bike. I’m sorry about what happened to you. I agree with you that motorists should have more respect for bikers. We share the same roads with cars and other vehicles and we should have equal rights to these roads. I hope you can finally resolve everything in your meeting tonight. But I truly doubt if that asshole shows up! The fact that he just drove off and left you like that shows what kind of a person he is. Makakatagpo din sya ng katapat nya!
Anyways, all the best to you and may we all have safer roads to bike on! Ride on fellow siklista!
Thanks Chiqui, just wondered kung ako si Shimanong diba… ano kaya ang gagawin nya… nakakalungkot talaga.
Matanda na ba yung driver?
Check mo to:
http://www.dmdcpa.com.ph/news1a.htm
nasa 40’s na sya siguro
Sayang wala yung picture nya dun!
Nakakahiya naturinggan ka pa naman na professional. Don’t you think suspicious that a site that showcases the rest of the partners. Biglang wala si RECKLESS DRIVER. DUMUGIN NANG COMPLAINTS.
I found this email address on their website, perhaps we can bombard them with complaints:
