00:00 The Transportation Office is still tightening the restrictions on taxi drivers who choose or hire passengers this Christmas season.
00:09 We have the news of Jonathan Andal.
00:11 These passengers were hired by the taxi company they hired.
00:19 The driver from North Ed to Letre, Malabon is single.
00:22 He paid 300 pesos for the ride, no metro.
00:25 He asked if we could pay 300 pesos because we are six.
00:28 I don't like that.
00:30 Why are you stealing?
00:32 You know it's prohibited.
00:33 I don't always steal.
00:34 Sometimes they bring it twice.
00:36 Sorry sir.
00:37 No sorry here.
00:39 I'm not a bad person.
00:40 I admit that I'm a bad person.
00:42 No, you're not.
00:44 Less than an hour, 10 taxis were caught by the Land Transportation Office
00:49 who hired and refused to ride passengers on North Avenue in Ed last night because of rush hour.
00:55 I won't ride because of the traffic.
00:58 It's prohibited, said the LTO.
01:00 Even those who are driving in the garage but don't have a signboard.
01:04 You don't have a signboard in your garage?
01:06 No, I'm sorry.
01:08 Even those who are driving in a hurry were not saved by the LTO.
01:12 No, I passed the woman.
01:14 You just passed her?
01:15 I just talked to her.
01:18 Do you have an extra helmet?
01:19 Sir, I have an extra helmet.
01:21 I will follow my wife.
01:22 I'm not a bad person. I'm just begging.
01:25 Begging? Do you know a pedestrian?
01:28 No.
01:29 It's still a rush hour and there are a lot of people who need public transportation.
01:33 So, to avoid the drivers who are being harassed, the LTO will force them to punish the abusers.
01:39 They can't pass after this operation.
01:42 We will immediately alarm them.
01:44 The last two taxis were unregistered.
01:46 They went straight to the impounding area.
01:48 It's a fake registration.
01:50 We will accompany the criminal.
01:53 It's a falsification of a public document.
01:56 They were just caught once.
01:57 They will regret it for the rest of their lives.
02:01 The penalty for the first offense of hiring and refusing a passenger is a fine.
02:06 But the evidences that prove that the motorcycle was in a hurry will be impounded.
02:10 If the driver saw the records that the driver has already made a series of violations,
02:14 he will be able to remove his license and he will never be allowed to drive again.
02:20 The LTO said that if there is an abused driver of a public transport,
02:25 they will report it to their 24/7 hotline 1342.
02:29 In the past month, the LTO has received 600 reports.
02:34 32 of them were about the excessive parking of taxis.
02:38 It's not hard to complain to the LTO.
02:41 If you have any information about the incident,
02:44 please send it to our Viber number.
02:47 Call the official hotline.
02:49 The LTO will take action immediately.
