Who among us has never been squeeze to death while commuting on a train, buses or any public transportation. This is a ‘follow up’ post to the Philippine Jeepney (You’ll see some pictures now)

Jeepneys with no passenger

In the provincial area, only a few can buy a jeepney of their own. The public transport numbers are low so people tend to squeeze just to have a ride back home.

This is what a typical jeepney in the province look like. Let the pictures speak for themselves.

Facts on overloaded/overcrowded jeepneys:

1. Amidst the situation people can still give a smile, see the pictures

2. It doesn’t matter where you sit, as long as you are riding the jeepney, you should pay the same fare.

3. People prefer to be seated on top because of the fresh air

4. Some overcrowded jeepneys are hired by one family to save some money.

5. it is fun and it offers adventure and experience
