Laser Speed Gun on Commonwealth

Many vehicles were apprehended by MMDA for speeding on Commonwealth yesterday.
Before, MMDA would send the citation in the mail, but because of the TRO against non-contact apprehensions, they’re now physically apprehending down drivers.
Most drivers immediately stopped for enforcers, but some made things more difficult.
Multiple MMDA big bikes were on standby to give chase to any driver that refused to stop.
Many of these enforcers were previously assigned to EDSA, under Edison Bong Nebrija , and are used to dealing with high speed situations. Although there’s still a lot of danger involved.
Despite what some people continue to claim, MMDA enforcers do NOT earn any commission on tickets. They have a fixed salary, whether they apprehend 1 driver, or 100 drivers.
Part 1/2.

Ironically those cops walking around the multi lane highway to stop 'speeders' with their bodies have a higher likelihood of causing an accident than going 70kph

The NCAP is okay, what's not okay is the removal of the metered numbers on traffic lights.

[@GadgetAddict]

Until now, I don't know why some LGUs (especially one in particular) is so addicted to hanging around the traffic lights, waiting for someone to pass as it turns yellow. That's not an issue with MMDA. They already know there's a LOT of serious violators out there. There's no need to wait time on petty technicalities or those situations where it's obviously safer to pass through the yellow than to do an emergency stop and get hit by the truck that's tailgating behind. If the MMDA can implement the "smart city" or "adaptive lights" with timers, that would be better. I agree. But if the timing between colors and the vehicle sensors are actually configured properly, the countdown timer really wont be that important anymore. Nearly all of the NCAP complaints were against LGUs, not against MMDA. In fact MMDA weren't even listed as a respondent in the case. It was filed against 5 LGUs. MMDA have been using their NCAP for several years and barely received any complaints because they know how to use it properly. For example, if you see a lot of people passing through a red light, you turn the camera and see why.. oh there's an enforcer pulling them through because there's an ambulance that's coming.

[@nash624]

Flagging a speeding car in that manner is unsafe for both enforcers and drivers. It's an accident waiting to happen.

Korea is built for modern traffic thanks to the abundance of US aid after the Korean war which aims to make it a friendly modern cosmopolitan right on China's backyard, same with Japan. Manila and the rest of the Philippines was urbanized in the 1920s-1940s or way earlier during the Spanish period making 21st century modernization far more difficult espescially for a post-colonial government managing a post-colonial culture. You can't really compare countries with different historical and cultural developments, most of our problems are historically rooted and needs a different set of solutions, we're not gonna become Singapore, Korea or Japan 2.0, we can only be Philippines 2.0 that's what people need to understand.

Because of the temporary restraining order against non-contact apprehensions, the MMDA have to either stop enforcing speed limits, or catch the drivers on the road. Many of these enforcers came from EDSA, so they know the reality of giving someone any space to escape. It was safer before, when they could just mail the citation to the registered owner of the vehicle.

How come it was only released on 2020 and skipped 2019, I went back and forth to MDA head office in Mandaluyong for appeal, it was time consuming and exhausting and told me that their system was down and can’t provide me a copy or picture of actual violation. I checked the date of penalty and my 2018 daily journal and i haven’t driven my car on the day of violation and why there’s a record of my vehicle on EDSA.

They had many big bikes on standy. You can see one of them catch up with the blue car. But those enforcers are used to special operations like this, especially because many of them came from EDSA. So they know that if you don't really try everything you can, some drivers will escape. It's dangerous, but there's no other option because of the temporary retraining order against non-contact apprehension.

I agree sa NCAP. Daming naabala sa ganyan manual apprehension. Delikado pa sa buhay ng mga enforcer. Pero dapat itaas sa 80kph ang speed limit.

[@amphibiousviper]

Why is the speed limit there 60kph? Why can some highways allow cars to do 80 or more while this cannot, is it not wide enough? I've been driving on major highways here in PH for decades, people always complain of heavy traffic but they don't care to even drive at the speed limit, even on a lazy Sunday. We really can't have fast-moving traffic if we set 60kph limits on a road like Commonwealth Ave. And if the issue is 'safety' well, there's a motorcycle limiter lane (not being implemented), a no-jaywalking law (is this even being implemented), and what else? What else needs to be done to break that measly limit? If we can just get strict enough with licensing to only 'allow' truly roadworthy drivers to ply our roads... But so few truly care enough.

[@GadgetAddict]

This road is commonly referred to as the killer highway of the Philippines. It's wide but there are other factors like the u-turn slots, the zipper lanes, MRT construction, loading and unloading of public transport, all the residential and commercial properties beside the road, the many side streets that connect to the highway etc etc. It's not as straight forward as an expressway like NLEX for example.

Samantalang hanggang ngayon, ang labo pa rin ng mga linya ng lane, ang labo ng kung saan ang mga U-turn slot na pwede naman maiwasan ng maaga, ang lenient pa rin sa mga public utility vehicles na pabigla biglang naglalabas pasok sa outer lane at nagkukumpulan hanggang ngayon at sumasakop ng more than two lanes pa nga rin.

They had big bikes on standby. You can see one that chased the blue car. But many of these enforcers came from EDSA. They already know that if you give a driver even one inch of space, they really might find a way to escape, even if you chase them. So they're more willing to go to extra lengths to stop a driver. I can tell you that every day there are a LOT of riders and drivers that refuse to stop and run from enforcers. They know that a single fixed-post enforcer doesn't have much chance of being able to catch them. And now there's a TRO against non-contact apprehensions, they can't even write the ticket to the plate number or use the CCTV footage to issue the ticket.

Many of them just don't care if it's red, or even if the road is one-way and they're Counterflowing. So I don't have faith in everyone that's complaining about timers being removed.

They have two options: 1) Stop enforcing speed limits 2) Catch the drivers on the road Option 2 is easier said than done. I've seen multiple chases and people don't always get caught. That's why experienced enforcers are more wiling to go to extra lengths, to ensure a driver will stop. Before, they could just mail the citation to the vehicle owner.

I agree. Blocking the vehicles along a highway running more than 60 kph is not a safe move. They are endangering the lives of their enforcers and drivers. Better to have motorized enforcers to apprehend violators or have them deployed a kilometer after where they deployed the speed gun.

[@lucienramido4440]

Whats the car's speed limit, is that in EDSA?

[@GadgetAddict]

They had big bikes on standby. You can see one that chased the blue car. But many of these enforcers came from EDSA. So they already know that if you give drivers even an inch of space, there's really a chance they could escape, even if you chase them. So these specific enforcers are more likely to take extreme measures to try catch a driver. Every other driver was able to stop in a short distance, except that blue car. Every day drivers and riders refuse to stop, or run from enforcers. Because they know a single fixed-post enforcer will pretty much never catch them. But this team is too big to escape from.

I really wish the 2 innermost lanes would be designated as fast lane.

[@dyordhantv3358]

motorcycles are way faster that 4wheels funny they seems invisible.

[@johndizon735]

Does that mean the no contact apprehension is still on operation?

[@GadgetAddict]

Although MMDA were never included as a respondent in the case, the Supreme Court said their temporary restraining order also applies to MMDA. So non-contact apprehensions are paused for the MMDA.

Good job! 60kph 👍👍

[@fifitomanalotto5887]

How much speeding ticket?

[@bunkbmx2059]

Galing makipag patintero ng enforcer s kotse 😁

[@russel242]

The mmda personel are in damgerous situation

[@vagabondwheeler3658]

Sa ibang bansa may allowance na 20kph kung ang speed limit is 60 pede pa ang 80 bago mag flash ang camera whether highway or interior

[@GadgetAddict]

It varies per country. 20 KPH is actually more generous than most countries. MMDA are also giving a very fair allowance, but not as high as 20 KPH. The speed limit on that road is 60.

[@zeroinfinite3773]

huh? eh di dun ka sa bansa na un . . . sumunod ka muna iho . . .

[@user-pq1ni4wz6h]

Is there a speed allowance given before they pull over a vehicle? In the US we’re given about 10mph beyond the limit before getting pulled over.

[@GadgetAddict]

Yes, it's a very fair allowance. I'm just hesitant to say what it is, because people might treat it as the new speed limit 🙈 The speed limit on that road is 60.

[@APtS_Gh0stHunt3R]

@@GadgetAddict I mean 10kmph is not a big speed jump...

[@Mr-Clark]

No such thing as an allowance in the U.S. It depends on the police officer. I’ve seen people get ticketed for going 5 mph over the limit.

[@GugsGunny]

@@ramnivdc7051 I've driven Commonwealth from Quezon Circle to Batasan and in my experience there were no slopes there steep enough for my vehicle to accelerate 10 more kph. The only places that had that happen to me are on mountain roads like Antipolo or Baguio.

[@austinagayo8206]

It depends what state you live in, but most of the time radar gun loses in court cause it's not that accurate when it's windy. But man I'm glad Philippines is moving forward man, just hope our kabayans want the same change as we all do.

[@davidang2742]

yung mga motor check nyo rin if overspeed???

[@avelinogalvezdeguzmanjr.3983]

Good job mmda /w general nebrija

[@xpaul9875]

I'm ok with ncap, but it should not be a profit orienten system. I saw one video questioning the apprehension and they told the complainant not to take video because it's a private company. so how is that?

[@GadgetAddict]

That wasn't the MMDA. That's the problem, people keep confusing the new LGU NCAP with the MMDA. MMDA have been doing their NCAP for several years, with barely any complaints.

[@michaelgallo7792]

Someones gonna get hurt for sure,

[@jcmmisc]

ano ang number ng fast lane? ang fast lane ba eh the lowest number lane or the highest? i think number 1.
