Depends on the language.

PHP - MySQLi where possible, MySQL if nothing else available though never PDO

Python - MySQL

Perl - Mostly PostgreSQL

Though I also use a variety of hybrid databases KV/EAV stores and document stores.

PDO - Just purely on the fact its easy to change databases and all you have to edit is the DSN string. Just remember, it's only an data abstraction layer which uses the same methods regardless of whatever database you use. It's not a database abstraction layer.
