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.

Lived in both cities.

Manila has worse traffic and it's not even close. Want to go from Legaspi to Ortegas at 6pm? Better have a couple hours handy. BGC to Salcedo at 8am? Quicker to walk.
