00:00In its hearing earlier today, the Senate Committee on Public Services took on the growing problem
00:06of public transport bus accidents on the road, mostly as a result of brake failure and the
00:12root problem of poor maintenance.
00:15Also in the panel's agenda, motorists deliberate disregard to slow down, let alone come to
00:22a full stop when pedestrians cross pedestrian lanes or crosswalks.
00:27A sad indication of drivers' discipline and refusal to yield to traffic laws.
00:34The issue of illegal motorbike racing on public roads was also taken up, in particular along
00:40Marilake Highway in Tanay, Rizal, where a number of deaths has been reported as a result
00:47of bikers' need for speed and wagered racing.
00:58Is it maintenance?
00:59Yes.
01:00Sa parte po ng DOTR, we take 100% po yung concern that you have raised on the matter.
