Filipino motorists also have another nasty habit, that of making their own lanes when the proper ones don't suit them. Here are a couple of examples:
This Pajero behind me was trying to make a new lane on Ortigas Avenue, right before the EDSA-Ortigas intersection, earlier this evening.
And later on that same evening, these southbound buses on EDSA didn't care how many lanes they were in, as long as they get to the passengers first.

Are Filipino drivers so moronic that they don't know what the lines are for? And don't they realize they're actually blocking other vehicles by staying on two lanes at the same time? Is it really that difficult to follow the lines or are they just so intent on themselves that everything and everyone else doesn't matter?

Unfortunately, I believe there's really no law that disallows this practice, so correcting this behavior will be extremely difficult.
