stevewool Posted January 10, 2020 Author Posted January 10, 2020 Well we shall have a car this coming Wednesday , we have hired a car for a few days or longer depending on how I get on plus where we want to get too. We are paying 1800 a day for a Mitsubishi G4 with GPS , so I have been watching everyone perform driving and I recon as long as you keep following the car in front I should be ok until I get use to the car , I just hope the car I am following is going where I am wanting to go too, anyway wish me luck.

graham59 Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 Good luck Steve. Don't forget... they drive on the wrong side of the road here ! (even when it is the 'right' side). Looking forward to the future posts on this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emma has suggested we have a swear box on the dash board and it’s 20 pesos a swear word, some how I think she’s onto becoming a very rich lady after this trip. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my wife would be the major contributor. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevewool Posted January 15, 2020 Author Posted January 15, 2020 Well it is easier then I thought , very little swearing by myself and I just listened to your great advice and follow the flow and it was enjoyable, a little busy at times but just keep going and leave no gaps . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevewool Posted January 16, 2020 Author Posted January 16, 2020 Well we are back from our road trip to Bongabon from Marikina and it was enjoyable, no problems at all but we did managed to get behind a funeral procession which must have took us a good thirty minutes to get through , the amount of trikes on these roads was amazing plus lots of ladies riding these too, like I have said in my earlier post I just followed what everyone else was doing , no stopping at crossings no letting folk out unless I had stopped and so on, but I did managed to get to waves of thanks from other drivers/ riders , I am sure air con helped to keep me cool for driving and staying cool about driving too, and yes I will hire the car again and go to different places . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
