00:00 Meanwhile, the MMDA is still trying to catch the motorists who are being harassed.
00:06 In fact, during this operation in Pasay City, some of our fellow citizens were sampled.
00:13 Their violations were found in the news center of Clay's Alphardilla Live.
00:18 Angelic, how many motorists were caught and arrested by the MMDA in Cahabaan, Edsa this morning?
00:30 They were already locked up but they are still on the road.
00:35 And almost all of them, the traffic enforcer of the MMDA, was forced to stop.
00:43 After passing through Edsa Busway in Mandaluyog at 12 noon earlier.
00:50 You were already locked up.
00:51 You are endangering the lives of the enforcers.
00:55 It's like a violation. You can stop and talk, right?
00:59 I will explain to you what you did wrong but you will not run away like that.
01:03 Sorry sir, sorry.
01:05 This SUV also has no entrance.
01:08 A foreigner was driving it and he was spotted on the busway.
01:13 I'm not allowed but I have some real emergency and I don't want to be alarmed.
01:17 What is your emergency?
01:19 I have something.
01:20 You have something. Okay, we apologize for that but still we have to apprehend you because the reason is not allowable.
01:27 You are not authorized inside the bus carousel.
01:30 Aside from the bus carousel, the emergency vehicles and vehicles are allowed inside Edsa Busway.
01:39 The government is still in the process of making it official so that the heavy traffic in Edsa can be reduced and the commuters can travel properly.
01:48 The MMDA Strike Force also blocked some parts of Edsa in Baklaran earlier.
01:53 These two people were driving a motorcycle.
01:57 They said they will be buried.
01:59 The problem is that they are wearing slippers and they did not wear their helmets.
02:04 They were arrested and they were stopped by the MMDA.
02:08 I'm not sure if the dead person is an enforcer.
02:11 What is the dead person?
02:13 My friend.
02:14 The e-bikes that were traveling in Edsa were stopped and they were just stuck in the sidewalk.
02:20 I don't know where the e-bike is. We are trying to find it.
02:24 What is your plan? Do you have a bus to go there?
02:29 I don't have one.
02:31 This bus was not allowed to go there.
02:34 The line is in Cavite and Matangas but it is in Edsa.
02:38 The MMDA said that they received a lot of complaints because of the violation of the traffic law.
02:44 The agency immediately acted.
02:46 It is the obligation of the local government and MMDA to enforce the traffic law.
02:52 But the motorists should also be disciplined.
02:56 Five motorists were arrested and they entered Edsa busway at 12 noon.
03:05 And until now, they are still doing their operation.
03:08 Angelique.
03:09 Okay, so Clazel, what is the penalty of the violators who pass through Edsa bus carousel?
03:17 Angelique, for the motorists who were arrested,
03:23 who were traveling and were wearing slippers, it is 500 pesos.
03:27 If they don't have a helmet, it is 1,500 pesos.
03:31 For those who were traveling on e-bike in Edsa,
03:35 if they are from Baclaran, they will bring their e-bike to Marikina impounding area,
03:40 it is 4,000 pesos.
03:42 The penalty for motorists who enter busway is 5,000 pesos.
03:47 And for those buses, jeeps, or any public vehicle that is spread out in Edsa,
03:53 they are not allowed to enter because the fine is 6,000 pesos.
03:57 Plus, the suspension for three months, it means loss of income.
04:01 Or they will not earn anything if they are not traveling.
