Tickled Pink
I could say that there have been some "considerate" improvements to driving around Metro Manila these days. Some streets are even showing some little improvement and organization. Now, we've got road safety signs, barriers and dividers to make driving a little easy for us. Of course it does take a while to get used to them but at least someone's making an effort to make them aware to the motoring public.
What's gotten my irk though is the current color scheme they're following. Heavens, PINK?! BLUE?! What are these people thinking about? At least they should have the decency to color the concrete barriers/fences in yellow. That color's easier seen whether in a dark road or during foul weather.
We regularly tune in to the morning shows on TV every morning. Road accidents concerning cars being flung from concrete barriers or ramming on to the steel fences have somewhat become a regular feature on the shows. Whether it may have been the driver's fault or otherwise, the severity of the accident may have been brought to a lesser degree had the warning signs or structures been more visible. Heck, nobody can see pink at night.
Lets just hope each and every local government office sit down and finally tackle this problem.
Just my two-centavos' worth...
