Chasing bus lane violators on EDSA

MMDA-NTFSO continue to work hard on bringing discipline to EDSA.
The exclusive EDSA busway has proven to be an extremely effective solution for commuters.
But if the bus lane isn't strictly enforced, it would only be a matter of time before it's full of cars and motorcycles, causing the busway project to fail.

[@BrotherRoy]

If someone knowingly tries to evade that should be a felony, as it is in the U.S. They should be arrested, car towed, hefty fine and suspension of license, no excuse for that type of behavior. To give the offender a ticket, a mere ticket is ridiculous. Unless the law begins to have some teeth, nobody will follow the rules.

They should have their licences revoked like in the rest of the world. The entitlement of some of these people is frustrating.

[@marilakay4902]

I dont know if the Traffic Enforcers knows the Law. Simple thinking Revoke the License and Ban that in EDSA , finish no questions.

[@dibbla]

@@marilakay4902 many countries that don't have such problems have camera enforcement in bus lanes, which saves valuable man hours for traffic enforcement. When the Philippines tried this, people took it to the high court and got it overturned. Do you think the average pinoy did this? Or the entitled and wealthy....

[@isidororamos3551]

Cancel the license of those who run away. Period.

[@36814]

Never mind cancel the license . All vehicles - MC , car , SUV , taxi etc - automatic seizure and CRUSHED on second offence . No appeals , no excuses , no exceptions !! . Also no need to place enforcers all the way along EDSA just totally random patrols .

[@WKingPrdox]

An increase in the penalty is a must!

[@arcaine101]

She should have been arrested for wreckless driving and evading authorities. But of course shes a woman, shell get away with a simple bus lane ticket.

[@vivi_rabbitteu0077]

Reckless Driving Disregard for Traffic Signs Speeding Inflicting harm of authority figure Coding Imagine if the penalty per violation had a flat rate of 10k per violation, instant 50k in fines Or even better, 10% of the MSRP of the vehicle she was caught in. Imagine having 6digits fine. Ewan ko lang kung may magpasaway pa.

[@daveledonio5793]

Sa ganung kadelikado ng ginawa nya, dapat inaaresto on the spot na yon at di na pinapayagang magmaneho pa ulit

dapat talaga criminal offence ang pag takbo sa enforcer. napaka.delikado ginagawa nila.

[@meego3117]

Salute to the thick-faced lady driving the white fortuner who tried to run away from the law enforcer and when she was finally stopped she had the guts to be arrogant to even dmand the enforcer to speed up the ticket issuance because of a meeting. These are rhe kinds of people who are shameless

[@impreza0109]

[@cl1ff-331]

The officials are too soft! They tried to escape but they are only issued a ticket? Thats mad!

[@markguerra5725]

We should give a heavier penalty for those who would run away and avoid appeehension

[@csg887]

The operators of Angkas, Grab and other providers should also be held responsible for their drivers. Or at the least the operators should penalize their drivers who are caught violating traffic rules. These drivers have passengers and are responsible for their safety.

[@BJMckay71]

These operators mostly dont care as long as they cash in. Dapat nga from the get go meron driving academy muna lalo itong mga motorcycle riders. Mas nakaka takot kasabay ang mga ito sa kalsada!!!

[@Johnzethleng]

Grab and Angkas should also suspend their drivers.

[@rogerarao]

Those who run away should automatically have their license taken away and suspended. They can reapply in the future for a new one but has to go through seminar first. That's how it should be. The problem here in the Philippines is that we have so many laws, but government agencies are very lazy in implementing it.

[@TheKamotechunks]

We had sticker policy but people cried and senators intervened, ayus binawi. Tulot uloy na sana un. Politicians only care about votes and themselves.

[@magicain77able]

Agree...

[@mweh6915]

​@@TheKamotechunkssad, thats why i'm studying Law and aiming to run for senator, i'll propose a law against road traffic violators, no more offenses its going to be a straight revocation of license plus a police record so they can't buy a vehicle from dealerships anymore.

[@TheKamotechunks]

@@mweh6915 Voters does not require you to be a lawyer to be a senator, you just need to shout all the time and do senate hearings and act like a tug and you will win their hearths. you don't even need to be a lawyer to make laws once you are elected, you just need to hire lawyers and act like you made it.

[@jfhpmd7594]

[@ianvirgilumengan2234]

I laud the efforts of the MMDA in maintaining order on the road. And to Gadget Addict, thank you for giving your viewers the chance to see the good that the agency does.

They're lucky. Traffic enforcers here in the PH are too kind. Those who ran away should've been arrested.

[@beeman235]

It is hard to change these types of people. Glad to see col. Nebrija and his team back in edsa..

[@tukmol1589]

There should be a solid yellow or white line to separate the bus lane from commuter lanes. In addition, there should also have letter markings.

[@mikediecast6728]

Im really pissed off at those stupid drivers who use the bus lane and will reason that they are late for a meeting. If its important leave 2-3 hours early! Kudos to sir Bong and the guys! Also to you too, sir Gadget Addict! Keep it up!

[@zenn2237]

If you're in a hurry, you know better not to violate traffic rules because it risks not just your time but also your car getting damaged, not to mention your life. Just call whomever you are meeting with ( may it be for a job interview, business deal, or an emergency ) and just tell them you'll be late. Surely they would understand as they wouldn't want you to endanger your life and the life of others

[@tootifrooti7297]

Revoke the license! its a clear intentional disregard to authority

Kudos to your dedication Col. Nebrija and the MMDA! Buti jan na kayo nanghuhuli sa underpass. Kala ng mga kamote makakalusot sila eh. 🫡

[@vincenttiamsic9646]

Suggestion to the MMDA In South Korea, the bus lane is at the opposite side as ours (counter flow traffic), thus: 1. The bus doors are at the side of the center island which is more safe for passengers; 2. It would eliminate the stubborn motorists who illegally would use the bus lanes, since they would now be head on to upcoming buses. I think it’s worth a second look by the MMDA.

[@Titan-Jil]

I believe they put the bus lane on the left so it will be accessible to MRT drop offs. Bus lanes were positioned on the right before the pandemic.

[@vincenttiamsic9646]

@@Titan-Jil Yes at the left side like now, but counterflowing direction.

[@andyl200]

The problem w/ bus lane running on opposite side is that EDSA has so many spots where transition lanes are on the inner lane. Those spots are where regular vehicles need to use the bus lane to get into the transition flyovers. ex: EDSA/West Ave, EDSA/Ortigas, etc

[@Jack-gw3ze]

That is a good idea

[@Jack-gw3ze]

Nice idea but cannot be use as bus lane on Metro manila is not only for bus but also for emergency vehicle such as ambulance

[@biboy2023]

[@ginocgraphicartist]

before the bus lane, people are complaining its hard to ride a bus and it causes traffic, so some f them bought cars or bikes, to ease their commute. now with the bus lane, those people who bought cars and motorbikes still complain, use the bs lane because of traffic... geez if you wan to be in the bus lane, dish out your vehicle and commute...its much cheaper...

[@BrotherRoy]

I think, too, if there was a "Traffic Court" like we have in the US, things would be different. When you gotta sit in court, wait for your case to be called, and then stand before a judge who can arbitrarily fine you for whatever he/she thinks is reasonable and punitive, instead of some token fee, that'll change your life. I remember getting find for over 1KUS and this was back in the 70's, so it was a lot of money--then. Think about it, you get stopped for "bus lane violation" and some judge says, "That'll be 60K" that would make you looking into your wallet and pockets in concern.

[@gyozamoney5909]

Agree. Pero mukang ang mga lawmakers gusto pa nga bawasan budget ng mmda, its liek they are not interested with reforms in the traffic system

These drivers that drive off from the enforces should be charged with endangerment and have their licences suspended immediately, then have to attend court. The ones that are continually being caught using the bus lanes should have points added to their licences and fines increased, once no more points can be added then their license is suspended for 6 months.

[@noellorbes2715]
