GO SLOW

This was one experience I often recall whenever there was heavy traffic. By all indications the traffic was heavy then so instinctively my son who was driving the car turned to Bicutan overpass to the service road thinking that it was easier there. Midway, we were obliged to turn back as we saw other motorists doing the same. The Superhighway was still go slow, so my son decided to try the opposite service road and realized what a big mistake he did. We only moved at turtle's phase.

Drivers are analogous to newly wed couples who were trying to find way through a marital traffic mess. They tried to go this or that way through any vacant space just to find out that they were entangled in more difficult traffic jam.

Like a cautious couple, drivers should drive carefully and rightfully to reach their destinations on time.

My daughter whose class starts at 9:00 a.m. arrived La Salle at 11:45 a.m. while we reached Quiapo at exactly 12:00 noon, an hour late for my regular time to return to the New Alabang Village Medical Specialits' Clinic.

We heard from a radio announcer that a truck full of coconut spilled out on the road causing the hell of a traffic.

Even in real life one bad or unlucky "driver" can contaminate all others. Our duty is to hold on tightly and calmly on our own motor vehicle---in the case of our analogy---the matrimonial car, because we are traveling daily in a very difficult traffic jam of life.
