A commuter's hell

We commuters are literally held hostage every time we take public transportation 

One time taking the bus from Las Pinas had me all cross-eyed and dizzy with the maniacal driver thinking we were in the zigzag road. By the time I reached Baclaran, I thought there were two Redemptorist church.

Another time it was this dyipni driver thinking he was some F1 driver racing like there's no tomorrow with another dyipni. Another time it was a taxi driver who, unfortunately for us who rode the cab that day, has an ax to grind against the owner of the cab he was driving. Every time he sees a pothole or a bump on the road, he would deliberately drive over it and seems hellbent on damaging the cab- never mind the passengers. When asked why he was purposely doing that, the idiot even had the gall to answer that he was gonna resign the next day, therefore he needs to exact revenge on the poor already dilapidated cab he was driving.of course, to get back at his masters! He only relented when we told him to bring us safely first to our destination and he can continue his torture of the poor cab later on..

The stress we have to go through! But what can we do? Really LTO and DOTC should have more stringent regulations before issuing any licenses to these drivers.
