A day in the life of a Jeepney driver
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 июл 2024
- Over the past year or so, I have committed myself to this little pet project where I spend a day or more in the life of someone we share our roads with. It started out with a day in the life of an ambulance driver (which was the scariest experience to date), then a race car driver when I entered the Vios Cup, to a day in the life of a bridal car driver, a taxi driver, and finally, a jeepney driver.

Jeepney drivers are masters in multi tasking.. Driving and calculating 200 minus 36.. counting change.. holy crap theyre virtuosos
You're pretty much your own boss. Having an assistant to collect the fare money is usually an optional choice
Don't forget running red lights, cutting across 4 lanes of traffic within 50 feet to pickup and drop off passengers and adding to the congestion while spewing black smoke out the back. LOL!
@@Mr-Clark man....jeepney drivers are an absolute mad lads
And they're mad
and they can even notice those who don't pay
The towel and coin in the ear! I love it! Hahahahaha!
Jeepney is always the number one transportation in the Philippines. Where ever you go there is a jeepney.
Where da jeepney at my moms divorce then???
Nice review 😊. Being a jeepney driver is very difficult. You're a master of multi tasking. Driving, computing the fare, while keeping your eyes on the street.
Agree. Sometimes napapaisip ako kc i'm driving a car and sometimes rode in a jeep, grabe multitasking talaga sila. You know being a jeepney has lot of stress like traffic, pollution etc etc.
@@malousoldevilla7807 yeah when i was a kid i took this ride for granted. never really appreciated the jeepney drivers up until i was in my 20s and finally left for california. the amount of multitasking and "pawis" steering 😂is something to be commended for.
This is the coolest jeepney I have ever seen.
I kept laughing when he says all the features are just decorations 😂😂😂
But no safety features 😂🤣
Like antenna 😆😆
Only in the Philippines 😂😂😅
jeepney is really is just a toy , the owner just modify the jeep the way they like
@@Roy-ti8tp that's true tf 😂😂😂😂😆😆😆
I was a jeepney driver for some years before I came here to the States, James. Did the Monumento-Baclaran route via Avenida back when they were still putting up the MRT, and traffic was insane, and before that the Monumento Baclaran (night time) via EDSA, then the UP-Farmers' route, too. Pawis steering was the normal mode, then, I don't know about now.. That steering wheel design you encountered was not the mode then, maybe whoever designed that at Milwaukee motors was thinking of how jeepney drivers would normally seat with one part of the butt up from the seat. Tabingi ang upo, like you said about the wheel....askew or sideways...that is because when you're driving under that heat, in that traffic, on an often hard seat cushioned only by a pillow you brought which had become thinned by constant use, and you seat with the butt flat on the seat, before you make your first "round trip", your butt will be hurting like hell. So what we do is seat sideways or almost sideways.
Now I've been here in the States 20-some years, so I hope MOST jeepneys are as comfy and sharp as the one you drove, and who knows, just for the heck of it, I might go back behind the wheel..
sakin baclaran divisoria
Jeepneys are on the process of phasing out. They will be replac by E-jeepneys and euro 4 + diesel jeepneys. In my city, jeepneys and multicabs are already retired. Replaced by Tojo electric jeepney or bus. Gonna miss our old jeepneys.
Not to mention the long hours of driving. I remember waking up my cab driver when he fell asleep while waiting for the traffic light. And also how dangerous their driving skills are. I had to close my eyes most of the time because they drive so close to each other. By the way, I don't think that they have car insurance either.

As a person with asthma, no, I'm not gonna miss those smoking machines. lol
@@faultline3936 Gonna miss them but that doesn't mean I want them to stay. Hehe
big fan here.lagi kong inaabangan to tuwing sunday night at cnn channel 9.lahat ng klaseng sasakyan dina drive niya.very informative.
its when you grow up to realize that being a jeepney driver is slightly a bit harder than being a race car driver
In racing you have to know when to brake and over take whith precition jeepney drivers ltterally tha same but you have to do it while calcuating
Then calcualing.... Is Bit harder too but you also.., Have to stop on stop line before you look be look carefully don't hit any poor Animals or also Ride Passengers only, 25persons maxx
Your jeep is beatifull and big
"barya lang po sa umaga" tapos bibigyan ka ng 100/500 at wala ka pang panukli
What???
I really wanna have a jeepney like this to drive around in Canada. Would be very useful in group trips, or even during camping. You can have 3 beds right off the bat. Maybe just some customization to bring the heaters, sliding windows and doors - due to winters. Though, I really like this one since it has a bar!
My cousin's family used to have a long jeep, and we would drive it from Cavite to Baguio!
The most fanciest jeepney I’ve ever seen
*Simon Cowell driving a jeepney*
ganyan dapat ang jeepney modernization. hindi yung itjsurang bus tapos sasabihin modern jeep daw yun. iconic ang itsura ng jeep eh
This is the most enjoyable and unique video you ever made I guess. I enjoyed watching it and I hope lots of people will watch this on you tube.
That's one badass "pimpy" jeepney I've seen!
Nice james as a family of jeepney drivers totally agree with you
Man that was a flawless jeepney.

Miss this kind of content and delivery.
This is still amazing even though it's been 6 years now. 😊
Good job mr. deakin being a driver of a jeep all body and mind is working it’s a multitasking job. at least you drive with the power steering I drove the pawis steering and a hydro back break not a air break. it’s more harder way back then I’ve been driving for a long time in manila it’s more harder because it’s only a inch between all cars and people around you. I like your video 👍🏻🇵🇭🇺🇸😊
Nice 1 sir James must also try the patok and hataw Jeep's and route, great experience thou driving a Jeep and somehow feel the life on road of a jeepney driver😎

Handsome driver. I want you to hired for my jeep lol

Very nice jeep I like it bro😍
How about customize jeepney into mid engined V12 but lowering it for modified racing?
We already have a V6 and V8 swapped jeepney. But I hope that one is also a thing.
Now that is what I call a 'fully customized jeepney'! I wonder how much it cost to buy one?
Amen 26 Praise the Lord 86 Amen. 153 Hallelujah 137.
Praise Jesus! He is the King of Kings!!
Go go go , nice ride..... Jeepney
The reason why the sitting position is a lil weird so that you can see the side mirrors easily especially in areas where the traffic is unbearable
Very nice 😍
New subscriber here in Philippines
Ha ha ha ha . Im enjoying sir... i hope you enjoy in ourCountryThankyouforthe Tagalog Speech.......💛💛💛💛
Hahaha...nice...I drove a jeepney for about 5 years and missed doing so...but alas it is nearing its end....I hopr our local jeep manufacturers would come up with SUV like designs that arr affordable and cheap to maintain that are also ECO friendly....
Even has a Bride seats, that's great.
very rare very rare in manila na maganda ang puvs not like cebu na may malasakit ang mga operators for the passengers convenient maganda ang set up at may sounds talaga at least no stress ung pasahero traffic na nga barong pa ung sinakyan mo
He's not wearing his seatbelt. He must have forgotten since, anyway, at the end he said, "safety is always a priority," or something similar.
hahah funny.. good vid man
Lmao your Jeepney has *Bride Bucket Seats* *Rich Kids Jeepney* 😆👌
Man, that plexiglass floor is a slipping hazard when it's raining.
