LTO New Guidelines for Motorcycle Riders

Posted by raredog in A.U.T.S., Two Wheels... | 07.01.2008 - 11:09 pm

The continued soaring of fuel prices not only affected large vehicles, now even owners of economical transportation like motorcycles/scooters starts to feel this adversity. And to add more headaches to the riders, LTO has issued their amended guidelines in the operations of motorcycles on roads and highways.

From which a lot of riders agrees that some of the rules are vague and somehow ridiculous (particularly the modification rule). I just don’t know if this guidelines are already approved or when will they implement it, but one thing for sure, this will be bad news for the riders, and good news for KC! (kotong cops)

LTO issues new guidelines for motorcycle riders
By: Jun Icban-Legaspi
THE Land Transportation Office (LTO) has issued amended guidelines in the operations of motorcycles on roads and highways for the safety the public in general.

The official administrative order issued by Assistant Secretary and LTO Chief Alberto Suansing stressed that the license with restriction Code No. “1” shall be carried by the driver/rider of the motorcycle or scooter at all times.

Other guidelines recommended by the technical working committee headed by Engineer Joel Donato, chief of the LTO-Motor Vehicles Inspection Section said the driver shall anytime of the day; switch on the headlight of the motorcycle or scooter while it is being operated on the highway.

“’Yung automatic head on sa mga motorcycle at scooter world rules ito,” Suansing said.

Suansing said the driver should be apprehended if they would not wear any protective devices such as helmet, goggles, protective clothing, and leather boots, gloves and rain suits, heavy jackets, heavy pants.

“’Yung boots at ibang heavy devices sa mga big bikes applicable ’yun. Gusto kong ding sabihin na ’yung rules na sinasabi namin dito ay applicable rin doon sa kanilang mga back riders,” Suansing said.

For his part Donato said the LTO-MVIS is also discouraging the motorcycle owner to modify their motorcycle or scooter.

Donato added that in the interest of public safety the LTO has also increased the fines and penalties for those who would violate the rules and regulations.

Donato said those drivers and back riders who fail to wear prescribed helmet will be fined P1,500 plus attending seminar for traffic safety to be conducted by LTO.

For carrying more passenger other than the back rider or cargo, a penalty of P1,000.

For defective accessories such as headlight, tail light, signal light, brake light, side mirror and horn a fine of P1,000 for the violators.

For modifying any part of the original design of a motorcycle or scooter without approval of LTO and the DTI a fine of P2,000.

Lastly for wearing flip flop, sandals, or slippers fine of P500 for the first offense, P700 for the 2nd offense and P1,000 for the 3rd offense and revocation of driver’s license.

Some comments from the riders:

bakit hindi nalng nila ipagbawal ang pagmomotor?!

Gatasang baka ang tingin nila sa ating nagmo-motor

madami sanang maidudulot na maganda ang mga rules na ito kaya lang mukhang mas maraming butas na pagkakakitaan…

Bakit pa sila maglalabas ng Guidelines kung sila rin mismo ang di tutupad, ano yan nagpapagwapo lang.

Riders Issue Guidelines for Traffic Officers on Motorcycles

Motorcycle riders has issued their own Guidelines for traffic officers on motorcycles’ when conducting apprehensions.

1. said officers must be in proper riding gear (basically a DOT certified helmet, riding gloves, jacket and reflectorised vest)
2. said officers must be courteous and smiling when apprehending motorists
3. said officers motorcycle must not be modified in any way (daming ganyan)
4. said officer’s motorcycle/vehicle must bear proper license plates bearing the current year’s sticker (bawal yung plates na “police” “barangay” “TED” “Traffic”)
5. said officers ID, badge and name plate must be properly placed on his/her uniform
6. said officer should be able to identify every motorcycle brand and model currently in the market and should be able to identify a modified from a stock bike

any officers not complying to these guidelines after thorough inspection by the apprehended rider, will be ignored and given the dirty finger

the modification really suck’s guideline’s must need to be justified because there are so many way’s of modifying the motorcycles…
ibig sabihin ba nito ay huhulihin na nila ang mga delivery MC’s ng mga fastfood chain kasi naka-modify yun?
ang pagpapalit ba ng gulong ay huhulihin na din kasi pwede magpalit ng oversizes or undersizes so it means modification na din ba yun…

promise kung akala niyo magkakapera kayo samin nagkakamali kayo mas mabuti pang unang hulihin niyo yung mga traffic hagards niyo kasi marami sa kanila hindi nagsusuot ng helmet at yung iba naman for registration yung motor which bawal kaso opisyal eh

peace LTO sana mag-isip kayo god bless

Mejo mahirap nga yung modification rules. Masyadong malawak ang scope nun. Para bang lahat ng babaguhin mo o papalitan eh violation na.

How can these people from LTO made the rules and implement it without the proper public consultation. In fact, those people who wrote this guidelines has NO EXPERIENCE in riding a motorcycle !!! Damn !!!

Though it is for the safety of the rider… most in the rules are only stupidity. “Class A Helmet and traffic knowledge is Enough for safety riding”.

ONLY IN THE PHILIPPINES!

I think there’s an ongoing dialogue with some of the motorcycle clubs and the LTO regarding this exaggerated guidelines. Let’s hope for the best.

Masmaganda kung ayusin muna nila ang hanay nila para smooth ang batas. yung sa modification dapat ayusin nila ang kalsada racing surface para kahit stock na gulong eh kakapit at less hazard. yung sa mga ilaw naman pabor ako dito na laging naka on pero kung ipagbabawal nila modification ng headlight aba eh dapat paliwanagin nila ang kalsada sa gabi yung kasing liwanag ng umaga para di na kami gagamit ng HID. sa heavy gears aba dapat yata mag motor sila ng nakakapote sa gitna ng araw para maramdaman nila ang init nito. teka modification nga pala lahat ng JEEP ahh walang default na JEEP na galing pabrika lahat ito nagsimula as modification so huhulihin din ba nila ito?

Dto po sa Davao madami ng nagagalit sa mga t*ngnang mga taga LTO na hindi nag iisip.. ung mga taga LTO mismo naka modify ung mga motor nila dito san ka po makaka kita na XR200 na sky blue ang color ng tanke? ung mga motor nga TMG na my tubo at my rotating light? diba modification din un? eh ung plate # nga mga yamaha DT na nasa tagiliran ang plate #? at mas mabigat dapat ang kanilang mga parusa dahil lumlabag cla sa CLEAN AIR ACT.. yamaha DT is a 2 stroke motorcycle that produces exhaust harmful gasses and adds pollution and GLObal Warming

kung ang motorbike mo ay phased out(i.e ts100 er) na at wala ng original parts hindi ba pwedeng palitan ng aftermarket parts dahil modification na yun ? wala na ba tayong karapatan na baguhin ang bagay na sa atin para sa ikaginginhawa natin? okey kami sa helmet, full riding gear at pagbabawal sa open pipes dahil distorbo nga yun pero wag naman yung lahat nalang pinakikialaman pa. at paano na yung aftermarket parts bakit pa nila inaprubahan ang lisensya nila to operate?

LTO? Lagay Tip Ok? Nakakaasar, dapat talaga ay may mga consultation muna, at hindi ung mga buwaya ang kino-consult nga mga LTO, Oo nga nman, wala n kasi silang ibang mkita na pag-kakaperahan! ilang units ba ang natapos ng mga enforcer natin? ang dami kasi nilang kalokohan! abay kung may pera lang ako ay bibili ako ng ferrari! kaso wala nga eh! ang bobo nyo! LTO! buwisit kyo sa kalsada!

Walang kwenta itong mga taga LTO hindi nag-iisip! Nag implement ng rules hindi naman well-justified parang sila pa yata dapat ang unahin keysa sa paghuhuli ng mga motorista dito sa davao. Bakit yung ibang enforcer may mga “modified” motorcycles din at kung minsan hindi nagsusuot ng helmet? Napakalawak ng scope ng “modification” bakit nasi-single handed tayong mga motorista? Paki justify naman bago po kayo mag implement baka ma-check din mga sarili nyo kakahiya opisyal ng gobyerno.

Posted on September 19, 2008

pwede ho bang magtanong??? Magkano po pla”ng utang ng LTO??? bat kaming mga motorista lng ang pnagbabayad nyo??? be considerable nman…pano na ‘yung mga kababayan nating ang hanapbuhay ay magbenta or magdeliver ng tinapay at repacks goods na ang lalagyan ay kahon na ina attach z motor? at panu din yong mga habal-habal drivers na ang ruta ay sa bundok??? sa dinami dami ba nman ng pwedeng i implement bat yan pa??? raming mawawalan ng hanapbuhay nyan dahil sa takot na baka mahuli cla at yong kita nila ay sapat lang na maibayad sa inyo AT YONG MGA NAGBEBENTA NG SPARE PARTS..MABABAWASAN ANG KITA DAHIL DITO….cguro mapapalampas pa nmin ung about sa helmet,safety gear..ung about modifications, ART po yon eh..i guess we are living in a democratic country,we have the right to do what we want to design,to attach,to add on our motorcycle that can satisfy us yet can’t harm others…inggitero lang kau maxado…wag nyo ng hintayin na kau na nman ang mpagbalingan ng mga kapatid nating against sa gobyerno….PAG-ISIPAN NYO YANG MABUTI..CONCERN LNG PO KMI…

CPP-NPA Negros Oriental….

As far as my concern about the new rules and regulation of LTO AO #-015 of 2008, is just they are doing a great remedies to have more funds for this coming Christmas, for better satisfaction and having a huge amount of money for all LTO employees and enforcers in order to receive substantial and sufficient money as their future bonuses in short this is their “cow’s sucking milk” aside from that those traffic or cop enforces would like to use the said rules and regulation for their “PAMBOBOAYA nila” or to make easily finds money for sustainability of their evil vices etc… Mostly the said rules and provisions were violating the rights of a person, most especially in Art 3 the” Bill of Rights” in our Philippine Constitution, and the right to Enterprise because in democratic country we are given a full of freedom which refers to our personal rights. Ergo those laws which Violates the Constitution is deemed Unconstitutional… Enforcing tightly to wear Leather boots, gloves and rain suits, heavy jackets,heavy pants, that would be intended for those who are joining the motorcycle racing competition. Mr.Alberto Suasing just try to find out whose person deserving to wear what’s your prescribed wearing suits.. Like us an ordinary motorcyclist it’s an awkward in looking a few distance from our house at mamlengke lang kami magsuot kaming ganyan? kasi takot kaming mahuli nyu? its unfair for those who owned a small motorcycle which frequently runs a slow speed…ang subrang B**O mo naman. Would you please before you implement it just try to check first the real essence of your laws whether you are not trampling the constitutional right of the Filipino people… or just go back in school, if you were came from there, if not, just take in school….. OTHERWISE…. (Sorry Julie some words are edited for being too explicit, hope you don’t mind.)

UPDATES! As per meeting of bikers (MRO,MCPF, others) with LTO officers (Usec. Suansing and Ms. Jacobo)yesterday at the LTO Office – eto ang napagkasunduan.

1.The suspension and non-endorsement of the second plate.

2.Allowing the Habal Habal to operate in provinces given that they do not cross national highways between towns.

3.Allowing more than one passenger as long as the volume of vehicles in that town is at an acceptable volume. Traversing between towns will not be allowed for more than 1 passengers.

4.The suspension of the regulation of the standard in helmets. Although made mandatory, as long as the helmet being used is specific for motorcycles.

5.The suspension on the regulation on apparel until they come up with a provision for the required shoes for riding.

6.The suspension on the ruling on carrying cargo. The current suggestion is to allow people to carry cargo based on weight, volume, stability and the location of the cargo.

7.The suspension of the regulation on modifications pending further review and study with the LTO and the Manufacturers.

There should be more rules and regulations on motorcycle riders; and these should be implemented strictly. Let us face it; riding a motorcycle is not safe in cities wherein there are more cars, trucks, buses, etc. And what is more dangerous is when the driver of the motorcycle is drunk, not wearing any protective gears and so on. It is not just about his life we are talking about, but also the lives of the people nearby. Do not be selfish. Think about other people’s safety too. Yes, I know that LTO seems to be bias or sometimes even corrupt; and more often, the regulations are not implemented well. But the thing is, accidents happen a lot because of carelessness of the motorcycle driver and while LTO ignores all of these. Forget about the fine, or bribe or whatever it is, just implement regulations well! And for those drivers, be responsible! If you can’t live your life following rules, “mag-commute na lang kayo!”
I am saying all of these because I am a victim of a careless motorcycle driver. I am driving a car yet he didn’t get scared and hit my side while I was parking. I WAS PARKING. And many people have witnessed that. The driver was drunk, wearing no protective gears (just his plain clothes and slippers), the motorcycle’s registration was expired, no license. And now his mother wants me to pay for his hospital bills?? C’mon. He slammed my 5 month old Honda Civic and yet I need to pay for his carelessness? We’ll be taking it on court. The guy suffered from minor injuries, (lucky him).

…. andami po nyan,defective accesories…pero not in the motorcycles but sa mga mismong tricycle.kakaloka kasi ang pangsignal ng mga drivers na liliko sila in a certain area is just their “PAA”or”KAMAY” na as if naman makikita mo na inaangat nila ang paa at kamay nila to signify na liliko sila.. and this alsogoes the same sa mga jeepney drivers..walang signalsignal, hihintona lang basta basta..,magbababa at magsasakay ng passengers sa gitna ng kalsadaayaw magpauna na lang.. hinaharangan ng sadya ang road. SILA PO LTO OFFICERS….,SILA PO ANG HULIHIN NINYO AT PAGMULTAHIN…….

@amane misa – i definitely agree with you. Mejo matamlay ang batas regarding sa mga signal lights eh kung tutuusin isa ito sa regular na dahilan kung bakit nagkaka-aksidente sa daan. Sana mabigyan nila ito ng pansin at hulihin ang mga busted na signal lights or hindi payagan ma-rehistro kung sira ito.

I think car drivers need to be much much more vigilant. They should also be educated about looking out for motorcycles approaching. How many car drivers think about motorbikes before they open their doors. I bet very few. It should be in the driving test, look out for bikes before opening your doors. The same needs also to apply to passengers in cars.
