Manila Traffic

Manila, one of the worlds tourist destinations, ranked tenth in MasterCard's global top 20 fastest growing cities for international visitors from 2009-2013. But, as great as this city is, there is a major problem that needs to fixed, overpopulation.

With a population of almost 12 million people, Manila is partly known for its frustrating traffic that can last for hours to get to a destination. During rush hour, traffic in the main roads barely move at all, and with an accident that occurs the vehicles are at gridlock for hours.

Some of the problems are that there's just too many vehicles in Manila. They all can't fit in the roads that we have anymore. Another problem are the officials that we have. Violators tend to bribe the officials and pay off their sanctions. Obviously this is a major deal in Manila and should be taken care of by the government properly.

Here in Manila it is best to strategically plan out before you actually go out such as going out only on Sundays or going out only before or after rush hour. Knowing the different times when the roads are not as traffic may save you hours of your lives.
