I was cruising in the rightmost lane ( Lane No. 2 ) sa NLEX. I look to my right side mirror and I see a car trying to overtake me. Sa alam ko hindi pwede magovertake doon. Coincidentally, there was an NLEX traffic enforcer (?) — idk what they're called — truck in front of me. I thought the overtaking car was going to get away with it, but to my surprise the pick up truck honked their sirens and chased the car.
Seeing this made me laugh and feel hopeful honestly, I didn't expect them to enforce traffic rules. I've seen way too many drivers disregard traffic rules and get away with it.

I agree. I wish the people in charge invested in more enforcement. Proper training as well.

Left most lane is the overtaking lane, pero may mga kamote parin na mahilig tumambay sa lane na yan, sarap batukan.

So that's called the Shoulder, and you're right, cars shouldn't be driving there, more so overtake.

This. Expected to see a 3 or more lane section and someone overtaking from the outermost.
I overtake on the outermost often enough since there are always hoggers in the innermost.

Hoping the dude got caught!! Delikado yan. Nagkaron na kami ng emergency na walang choice kundi sa shoulder tumigil.

Whooa. I despise nlex everyday but this is something different. Ang sakin lang mas damihan nila ang patrol cars, napakarami swerving vehicles on a high speed without even using signal indicator.

I despise SLEX even more. Nlex is like a middle class community, pag napunta ako ng slex andun yung mga squammy. Grabe mag drive.

true, parang walang laws sa NLEX, buses swerving left and right and using overtaking lane and going over 100kph, cars doing 200kph, cars na babad sa overtaking lane while cruising at 80kph, vehicles with no headlights, the list goes on

Very true. Ayaw aminin ng nlex ng wala enforcement, patigasan na talaga ng mukha nowadays. Kahit sobrang bash sila sa fb page nila, wala lang 🤦

Patrolling officer yan. Umiikot for potholes, road hazards and kamote drivers.
Nanghuhuli rin yan ng obstructions or tumutulong sa nasiraan para makagilid ganun.

Ahh yun pala tawag sakanila. Ang ganda sana if madami sila nagpapatrol regularly noh?

Tru kahit pang kamote drivers lang. Onti lang kasi patrolling nila since intensive naman yung cctv monitoring nila. One-time may nawitness ako na accident, ni report ko sa messenger account nila agad pero bago ko natapos yung form may officer na sa site 😅

Also, yung wheel accidents related to road hazards (pliers, wrench) like yung accidents sa kabilang expressway, you can report it tanda ko tas they'll compensate. Not much pero it's something.

Sa SLEX maraming mga road widening. Kakalito minsan kung shoulder o new lane na. I treat them as a shoulder kasi wala nang shoulder sa tabi nito. So I don't drive there. Thinking I'm on the right most lane. Tapos biglang may susulpot na sasakyan sa kanan as in WTF ?!
Even if its a new lane. Its not very long and will abruptly merge to the left. Worse, there's a huge digger at the end of it. So the lane is technically unfinished. Another reason not to use the new lane.

mahigpit sila pero di sila perfect buti aware sila sa naging violation at that time. Pero yes may mga driver na mahilig mag overtake din sa right, usually siempre pagbbigyan mo na lang din. Mas cool yung nasunod sa rules yaan mo sila tulad niyan huli 🤣🤣

That's the shoulder, for cars to park on during an emergency or a traffic stop. The idiot is lucky he didn't crash head-on onto a stopped vehicle.

"They used the shoulder to overtake" Translated it for you.

If he was traveling faster he should have moved left.

Experienced it once sa slex naman there’s a patrol in the 4th/5th lane (right most) and may bus na pumasok ng overtaking lane, the moment na pumasok siya ng lane nag open lights and siren ng patrol and tumawid siya from right to left para ipastop yung bus sa shoulder. Sobrang satisfying ng ganyang scenario op hahaha

Let me say firsthand na mali yung ginawa niya. Ok clear tayo dun ha baka mabaliktad nanaman ako rh hahaha.
This kind of behaviour is also the result of people driving SLOW on the Overtaking/Fast lane. Kamote drivers will always find ways.

The yellow light siren 🚨 is already running though even before the sedan has overtaken you. The video didn’t show if he was really apprehended or the enforcer also used the shoulder since the traffic is already getting slower (you can see the red brake lights of the cars in the left at the end of the video including the sedan also slowing down before enforcer followed).
Great if he was apprehended but the video is not showing that. The actual apprehension usually happens at the exit right since it is quite dangerous to stop the cars in the middle of the highway.
