LTO dispatches enforcers to assist motorists

THE Land Transportation Office (LTO) has dispatched enforcers all over the country to assist motorists during the Holy Week.

"Upang matiyak ang kaayusan at kaligtasan sa daan ngayong Semana Santa, nagsagawa ng operasyon sa iba’t-ibang lugar sa bansa ang mga Enforcer ng LTO sa pangunguna ng Law Enforcement Service (LES)," the Department of Transportation (DOTr) stated.

The LES has conducted random inspection in different stations to ensure that only roadworthy public utility and private vehicles will go out in the streets during the observance of Holy Week.

"Siniguro ng LES na tanging ang mga sasakyang roadworthy lamang ang makaka-biyahe–sa pagsasagawa ng roadworthy inspection sa mga public utility bus (PUB), public utility vehicles (PUV), at private vehicles," it added.

Aside from these, the enforcement agency conducted random alcohol test among bus and jeepney drivers.

"Sumailalim naman sa random alcohol test ang mga PUB drivers nang makasigurong ligtas at maayos na makarating ang mga pasaherong lulan ng mga ito. Ang nasabing pagsusulit ay alinsunod sa RA 10586 o mas kilala sa The Anti-Drunk and Drugged Act," the agency stated.

LTO also established the Malasakit Help Desk to assist the motorists and relay the agency's advocacies and information.

"Makaaasa ang publiko na patuloy na magsasagawa ng operasyon ang ahensya upang matiyak ang kaayusan at kaligtasan sa daan," the agency stated. "Kaisa ng sambayanang Pilipino ang LTO sa paggunita ng Semana Santa 2022."
