00:00The license plates of motorcycles will be re-replaced following the amendment of the Double License Law.
00:06We will now call on Atty. Greg Pua Jr., Executive Director of the Land Transportation Office or LTO. Good morning.
00:14Good morning sir Egan. Good morning to all of you listening.
00:19Will the change in the license plates of motorcycles be able to help the LTO?
00:27Yes, definitely sir Egan. We don't need to produce a second license plate that can add to our backlog.
00:39We are thankful to the Senate.
00:42How much is our backlog now?
00:44Our backlog now sir Egan is at 9 million.
00:509 million?
00:519 million only. It started at 13 to 14 million.
00:55Yes.
00:57So what will be the effect of the amendment to the Motorcycle Crime Prevention Act?
01:04This will speed up our address to the backlog because we don't need to produce a second license plate for motorcycles.
01:13Also, the license plates that we issued before, we don't need to produce a second license plate.
01:21That would add up to our backlog and that would slow down the production of our backlog.
01:31Like what they said in the Senate, it's better to have one than none because of the backlog.
01:41So Tony Pua, how many license plates do you have now? How many were issued?
01:48I just need to check the numbers because when the implementation of the Motorcycle Crime Prevention Act was suspended,
01:56before we came here, I need to double check if there are two license plates that were produced before.
02:07So no one is traveling with two license plates now?
02:10No sir.
02:13But can we see the crime prevention right away? For example, riding in tandem. Can we see the license plates of motorcycles right away?
02:24The example of the Senate is that it can pass, but it will still be determined on the back if the motorcycle was registered earlier.
02:42Okay. We have a different story. We have a different story in Edsa Busway.
02:46It ran away again, just like an SUV that has a government plate number.
02:51It even mentioned that it was in a convoy of a congresswoman.
02:56So our operation against the busway continues.
03:02Yes. This report was submitted to us by SAE. We issued a so-called order right away.
03:12I'm not sure sir Egan when the hearing will be held. I'll keep your office posted on when the hearing will be held.
03:22Aside from...
03:23That's right sir Egan. Not only when other agencies report, even if we see it in the video, in social media or reported by our citizens,
03:35we are taking action on that sir Egan.
03:37Aside from P1,000, next will be P5,000 confiscation of their license, right?
03:45Yes. Until it reaches revocation, if they can afford it.
03:52Maybe it can be amended to P1,000. For now, they know that it's prohibited sir Egan.
04:01We will study it sir Egan and we will coordinate with other agencies that are implementing and handling the busway.
04:13Thank you very much LTO Executive Director Atty. Greg Pua Jr. Take care.
04:18Thank you very much sir Egan. Good morning.
04:30Thank you sir Egan.
