Getting out of the Jeepney

Hi there! You are right there could be some drivers, who are always in hurry and don't bother if all the passengers have alighted safely. They need to be taken to task and should be taught the importance of safety of passengers.

hi simplyd! Many people experience same cases as you but except for people's who are always riding in there own car wherever they go some times i hate driver's especially when they are not looking to there passengers if they go down already one day when i am going to school because i have a summer class i am already late so i run so fast and get a jeep immediately so that i can go to my school asap. when it is my turn to go down i already tell to the driver "PARA" to stop a jeep . he didn't hear so i told again in a loud voice but he didn't here it so i shout!. the jeepney that i ride is full all of them didn't help me to say that "hey stop someone will go done" so i just shout because no one is helping me when i go down i like to tell the driver that if you are deaf then better not to drive anymore, i told him loud and clear but he didn't here it. I was so dis appointed because the place that suppose to be i will not walk any more it made me walk maybe 1km away and it mate me late, i was so happy because my instructor that time is not yet in the class.

hello simplyd, Oh i also hate when this happens. As i am always with my 4 inches heels and the jeep starts moving slowly that i haven't get out ...i could yell actually. I pitied when some kids or elders went off with their balance when jeepney drivers doing such thing..they're really mean ugh! have a great weekend

Yes, I agree..I have seen some situations like that but haven't really been in one. I hate drivers that don't even think of their passenger- always in a hurry. They shouldn't start the jeep at all before the passenger has fully gone down.

i hate it when drivers do that too. It seems that they are always in a hurry when the passenger is getting down and they wont care if the passenger gets injured while going down. this is the reason why i dont stnd up yet when the jeep is not completely stopped when i say "Para".

yeah i agree with you that is really a very disgusting feeling and I am a witness of that case many times, as much as possible I tried to scold the driver for doing stupid manners like that and there were even cases that they reason out that it was the woman's fault for being slow knowing that it's not a loading area. hahaha! such a rubbish reasoning. drivers especially jeepney drivers must have a proper manner or etiquette when it comes to their job.

Hello Simplyd, Just a question; Have you said the magic word (PARA!) before going down from the Jeepney? because i do go down too when the jeepney has stop. Or Another magic sentence could "Mama, sandali lang po" (Mister, Just a moment). Because there are areas where Jeeps are not allowed to pull over and yet "some" passengers wants to the jeep to stop when ever the place is "exact" to their location and not near. Anyways, it's indeed rude if you have said the magic words and the driver seems to be in a hurry. remember their Plate number and text LTFRB (*that's why there is hows my driving? question) Have a Nice day.

There's really a lot of rude drivers out there and I have lots of different experience riding jeepneys. If only there's a law about those abusive drivers...

Yes i hate it when they do that. Some drivers were also deaf. You must shout it at the top of your lungs before they hear u. And u were meters away from your drop zone. Those for who doesnt have conductors assistant.
