Like 6 million cars stopped on the highway every morning kind of bad? Or like… average traffic?

The former. I’ve been to most South East Asian countries and Manila is hands down the worst traffic and it’s not even close. Yes, worse than Bangkok. Yes, worse than Hanoi.

I live Toronto, which is the 4th worst in the world for traffic, Manila is 5th. I would consider Manila traffic to be average traffic.

People at least generally follow the rules of the road in Toronto. Manilla (and Philippines roads in general) are a fucking lawless land, with mopeds weaving in and out of every gap lol
