I’m from Baguio City. Rain and
heavy fog are frequent, but I
don’t use my hazard lights when
driving in these conditions. I
just turn on my headlights and
that’s it. I see drivers not from my
place, especially on Marcos High-
way, coming up or going down
with their hazard lights on, and I
say to myself that these guys are
not from here. If you’re travers-
ing a road anywhere in the Philip-
pines when rain is pouring hard,
and you plan to use your hazards,
push the button, slow your speed
down, turn your steering wheel
where the road shoulder is (be
sure you’re safe), stop your car,
put it in Neutral if it’s manual or
shift it to Park if automatic, then
pull your handbrake up. Don’t
turn your hazard lights off and
you’re safe. That shouldn’t be so
hard to do, right?

It becomes extremely hard to do if
you’ve spent your whole motoring
life thinking that using hazard lights
in the rain is perfectly okay—when
it’s really not. We’re going against a
lifetime of habit here. And humans
happen to be creatures of habit.
This is going to take us some time,
but at least it’s now being discussed.
That has got to be better than noth-
ing. Our fellow drivers just need to
know what’s safe and what isn’t.
