I Had No Idea Rush Hour Commuting Is This Bad Nowadays [Traffic]

Not from today, but I needed something to go along with the article.
This is actually preferable to this evening's traffic.
The last time I commuted on EDSA on a regular working day and during rush hour was probably 3 or so years ago. I was working over at Buendia that time, so I'm familiar with the route I took today, which also saw me commuting along Buendia. Below is a rough timeline of my commute, along with commentary.

The Missing Take on a Particular Traffic Accident Report [Horrible Drivers]

I saw this news bit as I was riding the bus home last night and found something amiss.

It looks like the only one doing any reckless driving here is the motorcycle driver, using the usual undisciplined tactic of trying to overtake in-between lanes. The traffic cam footage cuts from when the motorcycle fell, so I'm left to assume that the motorcycle drifted close towards the truck's flatbed and lost control and fell, sliding under the truck, then the rear set of tires ran over the victim's head.
