00:00Christmas is just around the corner, so it's getting harder and harder to book a ride for the commuters.
00:08That's why some of them are already riding in the color rooms.
00:11Niko Wahe has the story.
00:16Erickson is on his way to a clinic in Ortigas at 3 in the afternoon.
00:20He's from Tondo, Manila.
00:22And because he knows that there's a lot of traffic, his first choice is a motorcycle.
00:28He's already using two motorcycle taxi apps, but no one is picking up.
00:32TNVS cars are not an option.
00:35Because the fare is equivalent to his daily salary.
00:39It's hard to book, because of the traffic.
00:42Sometimes, they ask you to add, or sometimes, they ask you to cancel.
00:46There's a chance that he's been using his cell phone for an hour, but there's still none.
00:52He's discarding it.
00:54I joined a Facebook group of passengers and riders.
01:00That's where I post pick-up points, drop-off points, and how much I'm going to give.
01:06He knows that there's a color room here, but what's his choice?
01:10Alexis feels that there's a lot of traffic this Christmas.
01:14Sometimes, he travels for more than two hours by bus from Commonwealth Avenue to San Jose del Monte, Bulacan.
01:20He's also using motorcycle taxis when there's short travel in the NCR area.
01:25It's taking too long.
01:27I don't know. They're already hiring.
01:29I don't know what's going on.
01:31It was first reported in the Senate that it's hard to book in TNVS.
01:36We're still trying to get a statement from the LTFRB and the commuters.
01:41But they already announced that they approved the special permit of 5,000 units of TNVS.
01:47Starting tomorrow, December 15, the application for the special permit of PUVs will be opened.
01:53Despite the difficulty of commuting, the LTFRB reminded that the transportation costs are too high.
02:00They also said that only small transportations can be used.
02:03For GMA Integrated News, Nico Juaque, for Tutok 24 Horas.
