Colorum na van sa EDSA, tumakas nang parahin ng awtoridad

Transcript

00:00 A scene from the movie "Paghahabol"

00:03 where a police officer chased a Edsa van

00:06 that ran away so that a violation ticket would not be issued.

00:10 That's what Rocky or Ryan Leziguez saw.

00:14 In the middle of the heavy traffic on the Edsa side,

00:22 this van is at Corner Rojas Boulevard

00:24 where the Special Action and Intelligence Committee for Transportation

00:28 or DOTR, was chasing because of its color.

00:32 The operating team noticed that the van was full of passengers

00:36 but the license plate was for private use.

00:38 The van was tied by the vehicle of the operating team

00:41 so that it would not leave.

00:44 But while they were looking for the driver's license and documents,

00:48 it was stolen.

00:49 And in the middle of issuing the ticket,

00:52 the driver was running away.

00:54 The van's authorities tried to stop it but it was forced to run away.

01:00 Saic will be in charge of the issue of the show-cause order

01:05 against the owner and driver of the van.

01:08 The report is now with me.

01:10 I have already written the Saic CCOC a letter of endorsement

01:17 attached there with all the pictures, the videos, including the documents

01:21 showing the incident report and the police report.

01:25 This will now be forwarded to the Land Transportation Office for appropriate action.

01:30 Because they can file a show-cause order against the driver and the owner of the motor vehicle.

01:42 The driver and the owner of the vehicle are not yet proven.

01:46 If you know that you are not guilty, you have nothing to fear.

01:52 The van's run is a clear manifestation that he is afraid and he has a violation.

02:02 What can happen if after the investigation,

02:05 he is found guilty, he will be released on a fine.
