Moto-squitos

Have you ever noticed how motorcycles have a way of slipping past cars and accumulating in front of an intersection while you're waiting for a red light to turn green?

I noticed this earlier today as I was driving back to the office after a lunch meeting.

There must have been more than a dozen motorcycles lined up in front of the cars on the south-bound lane of Paseo de Roxas. It was quite a sight to see. Made me wish I had the presence of mind to whip out my phone cam and snap a picture.

I also found myself wondering if this motorcycle behavior is true in other places as well, or if this is a unique feature of Metro Manila traffic. haha!
