My wife (filipina) has heard me call other drivers an idjut 100's of times and even mother f__ing idjut a few. When I went out driving once she asked me to be careful of all the idjut's out there driving... especially the one behind the wheel of our car!

What makes me laugh is on taxi's and delivery vehicles they have a little sign at the back with a mob number saying " How is my driving ". I know this sign is really just taking the pi$$ but at times I do feel like calling and telling them their driving is absolute F#*&ing $h.t but I just smile and try to avoid a collision. M.P.in P.I.

I just got a new one to call other drivers.  This one came from a fellow veteran, a retired US Marine master gunnery sergeant: you freaking turd pusher, get off the damn road!

I assume you're joking? The traffic flow in Davao is the same as everywhere else in the Philippines - on the right, not left.

Yes I  was joking and having a shot at the anti American thing that was going on at the time.

When I lived in Spain, the province driving was the same, so I used  what the Spanish think they invented and it worked most of the time

Then again, in many places in the Philippines, traffic will flow on the left if the driver deems it is faster and there is an opening.
