Interesting documentary about driving in Manila. Apologies if it has been put on the forum before - although I haven't noticed it.

Uploaded to You Tube in 2013, 45 minutes in length.

Also features a Pinay racing driver. Get in there Graham. :biggrin:

I've driven there. At least he's used to driving on the 'wrong' side of the road !

The only foreign country I've driven in is Greece and that was on a motorbike. Getting used to driving in the passenger seat of a vehicle using your right hand for gears in a city like Manila would just be too much.

Well I've managed to do it Jamie, AND I'm left-handed. :doh

Give it a go sometime. Challenging, but fun. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Oh, and you could always rent an auto-trans model. :smile:

I've never felt the need to rent a car abroad yet. If I did, it would be somewhere quiet like Siquijor.

We're currently in the Philippines and I'm doing a lot of driving. It was a 13 hour trip yesterday!

But I'm actually quite enjoying it! I'll post some info when l get back.
