    Rule 14 outlines procedures for power-driven vessels meeting head-on to avoid collisions at sea. It requires vessels to pass port-to-port to avoid a possible collision when on nearly reciprocal courses posing a risk. Following this rule helps interisland seafarers in the Philippines avoid head-on collisions and reduces accidents. The student suggests strictly following international regulations like Rule 14 to further reduce maritime disasters.

    STUDENT REFLECTION 10

    The Importance of Rule 14 "Head-on Situation" It is the rule that you will follow if you are in a

    head-on situation to avoid a possible collision. This rule will be followed when power-driven vessels meet

    on reciprocal or nearly reciprocal courses, posing a risk of collision; additionally, if she is unsure whether

    such a situation exists, she will assume that it does. exist and behave accordingly. Yes, this rule is enforced

    in the Philippines because it helps interisland seafarers avoid a head-on collision and also helps to reduce

    accidents at sea. And my suggestion for reducing maritime disasters in the Philippines is to follow the

    COLREGS to avoid accidents at sea.
