LTO Davao implement motorcycle rules that the riders hates to agree


A couple of weeks ago the motorcycle riders of Davao City was put into chaos because of the local LTO new implemented rules. Attorney Dy of the LTO Davao imposed a rule for the motorcycle riders to use the full face helmet and customized motor units are no longer permitted to travel. There are a lot of motor riders with in Davao City and most of them owned a customized motorcycles. The new rules imposed by the local LTO includes no to customized motorcycles, half face helmet is not allowed, wearing of slippers and shorts is strictly prohibited. Series of meetings inside the LTO premises were conducted during those times because all Davao City riders didn't want the new rules imposed by the Local LTO officers. A group of Motorcycle riders went to the Mayors office to seek help for the City Mayor Rodrigo Roa Duterte and they present their grievances about the new imposed rules. Many were shocked about the rules because if you violate such rule, the fine is quite expensive. It ranges from 1500 to 2000 pesos per violation. The mayor told the public through his television show that he was not in favor of the said rules and he told the LTO officers to stop implementing the rule. Right now, the problem between the motorcycle riders and the LTO was settled. Thanks to the good mayor for he understands how difficult the situation is if the motorcycle riders follow those irrelevant rules.
