No because if your driving skills is 10% then there should be more accident so its the opposite
As local of Manila, a car enthusiast who enjoys driving (even in Manila traffic), and as a fan of Andrew's show, Canada's Worst Driver, I can say that MOST of the contestants in CWD will be considered a normal driver in Manila (example: Brittany from Seaason 14. She's like many drivers in Manila.) If I win the lottery, I would bring the CWD show in the Philippines and have Andrew host it. That'll be a blast. LOL!

It's a hell hole to drive in the Philippines especially if you're living in cities like Manila or Cebu. Most of them doesn't follow simple traffic rules plus you can't see them using turn lights in their cars.

I'm an Aussie, a big fan of Canada's Worst Driver. I'm going to the Philippines for the first time at the end of this year & after watching this I feel absolutely horrified. No way I'm driving those unsafe vehicles!! How can you get your licence that easily by going around in an empty car lot, that's outrageous & insane! No wonder they don't have any road knowledge
Driving in Manila, easy. Even a girl can do it. Definitely driving the streets made her a better racer than most men.

If you're actually willing enough, the first thing you need to do in Manila traffic is to relax and cool your head. Lean back and actually enjoy the fact that you have a cushion in the bucket seat. The next thing to do is to simply follow the rules of the road that you were taught whichever place you came from because it's practically the same elsewhere due to the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals. The Philippines follows the minimum standard set by the Convention so there aren't any unconventional or weird rules and markings that would confuse you, unlike Japan or the UK. The third thing to do is actually more sensible than you might think; it is to be alert and *drive fast*. Driving isnt a stationary activity. If you want to get from point A to point B in as little time as possible and limiting your exposure to crap driving as much as possible, then stick to the speed limit all the time and you will actually get to your destination with minimal conflict. One of my biggest problems with Filipinos driving is that they're aggressive AND slow, hogging the overtaking lane at 80kph and brake checking you if you flash them to move over when there's nobody in the right lanes. How utterly ironic and moronic. Keep in mind, just because you're driving fast doesn't mean you have to make you and your passengers nauseated. You also have to drive smooth. Be like Jackie Stewart; he even made a VHS about it. Learn how to drive smooth and fast, seriously. It'll save your life. Surviving Philippine traffic isn't about picking up your balls and acting tough like a jeepney driver, it's about actually staying safe and being alert. If you survive Philippine traffic, try doing so without harboring the bad habits here. That's why i can get into highway 401 and into Downtown Toronto within minutes and still be feeling fresh.

I can't believe it was actually that easy to get a license there holyshit lol. Here in Canada it's a whole 3 year process to get your full license. First year you take a knowledge test to acquire your learners or G1 ( you can only drive with someone that has a full license while you're a G1) and with that you have to have it for 1 year before you can finally take your road test and acquire a G2 license. At this point you're allowed to drive by yourself but only after driving for another year after that will you be allowed take the advanced road test to finally get your full license. But the process in Philippines is nuts !! I cannot believe the process was that fast and the actual driving test is in a closed area!! Here in Canada it's actually on the road. Crazy man.

Funny enough when I had my aunt visit me in Canada and I drove her around she was terrified sometimes b/c the traffic here moves so much faster. When I pointed out I wasn't likely to hit something, and it was unlikely someone would hit me, she pointed out that a collision in the Philippines is at least slow. With that mentality in mind I still refuse to drive on visits, even a slow collision can do a lot of damage.

It's safe to drive fast when all the other vehicles with you on the road are obeying traffic rules.
You are a funny guy, I can't believed you managed to do that in the Philippines! I'm proud of you Jon.
Filipino drivers who are not following traffic rules,driving fast should lose their license
I think as of the start of 2019, the number of cars in the country multiplied drastically. The amount of cars you will see in this video doubled (or maybe quadrupled or worse) as of today especially in 2017 when there are more than 170,000 brand new vehicles (that doesn't include used 2nd hand vehicles) released from the showrooms because everyone can get a new car from low down payment prices. Now the city I live in gets longer travel times than before thanks to it
I'm a pro tricycle driver as well. and just like at 11:00 I drive a 1999 Kawasaki HD 125cc, only a better conditiond one.
That has just given me a excuse to get my license in the Philippines as a souvenir
If the traffic isn't bad enough this guy drives like a Canadian.

Christian del Castillo, I learned how to drive in Manila and now I live here in NYC. The traffic situation in Manila and nyc is almost the same. We have pedicabs, horses, pedestrian crossing all over too. Taxi drivers here are just the same as jeepney drivers in Manila, unruly. Practice to drive here in Manhattan first before driving in Manila and I'm pretty sure you can make it.
Well done, a great film.

YggdraSsilL91, breaking every rule, making driving more stressful and killing more people on the road does not mean it's "skill". Death is final and it's better to stay alive and drive rather than be dead and done.
My grandpa said that since the 90s the traffic was already worse. Me, as a grade 9 student, getting to my school in Sampaloc Manila is a bullshit. I'm from Progreso, San Juan and every mondays and tuesdays, the traffic was freakingly bad that i don't want to go to school anymore.

From the same laboratory urine testing office(there are tons to choose from at the time), to the driving area, even his driving examiner was the same guy and I also rented that same car for the examination. The difference at that time was, after the written exam I went to a room were we watch some video.

The population isn't exactly the problem though, comparing to some other neighbouring Asian countries with similar population density, their traffic is nowhere near as close as to this, if ever. It is really the problem that is already shown in this episode. Public transportation is also very ineffective and fragmented that contributes a lot to this traffic problem not just in Metro Manila but the whole, only with lesser issues that can be addressed easier than Manila. The Philippines though indeed not fit to be a "carnation" because of small available landmass with a huge population. A unified and effective mass transportation system is really the solution for people to commute, and needs to eliminate old current "systems".

Do you know that the jeepneys are military jeeps and trucks left behind by the united states military during japanese occupation and some even came from the japanese and the locals use them for public transport then for more passengers to fit they made them longer and put some roof to protect from the heat. FYI
My girlfriend is from Antipolo and she says it's very much like this, and watching this episode she said she's often scared to cross the street alone because of the driving habits there, at least in Manila.
