Being single is fine and dandy unless you have to travel through EDSA nowadays. As if the troublesome and tiresome traffic in the country wasn’t hurtful enough the Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) recently banned cars with only a single passenger on board during rush hours “Bawal na ang single sa EDSA”.  

It was on Tuesday that the MMDA announced that the Metro Manila Council has approved the high occupancy vehicle (HOV) scheme where "only those vehicles with two or more passengers would have the privilege to traverse EDSA.” The dry-run for the policy will start on Aug 15, 2018, so well and beware for the single people.

In reaction to this shocking news, the netizens took to social media to reflect their opinion on the new ban, some took it lightly and paid no attention to it, however, the other half didn’t take it that light...at all. 

However, if the single people can’t be totally free at EDSA then there are many other places wherein being sexy, free, and single is well and good.
