00:00The stiff combo penalty of huge fines and license revocation may not suffice to change a driver's waist behind the wheel and on the road.
00:09So the Department of Transportation is dead serious in throwing a shame campaign into the mix to add humiliation to the hurt.
00:16A rogues gallery of the country's worst drivers for all to see online, as our Bernard Ferrer reports.
00:24The days of motorists who recklessly violate traffic laws are over.
00:28The Department of Transportation, or DOTR, is planning to publicly release a lease of earring drivers as part of its efforts to unseal discipline on the road.
00:37According to the Department's record, the Land Transportation Office, or LTO, has issued a total of 2008 showcase orders over the past six months.
00:47During the same period, the agency also revoked 420 driver's licenses.
00:51May plano kami ngayon na every week, magpapublish kami ng listahan.
00:59We will probably call it yung one yung tularan o one yung pamarisan list.
01:05Parang lang matuto.
01:07Kung di kayong madagasan o, kung di kayong matatakot sa kaso, sa multa, matama, e baka dito, mahiya kayo.
01:14DOTR Secretary Vince Deason said, their legal team is currently reviewing the procedures that need to be followed before the list of traffic violators can be officially released.
01:24Once the guidelines from the LTO are approved, the measure will be immediately implemented.
01:29Secretary Deason clarified that only the names of violators will be made public and no sensitive information will be included.
01:36In addition, the DOTR is also studying the possibility of increasing fines for traffic violators to further encourage road discipline.
01:45Meanwhile, Secretary Deason has recommended to the LTO the immediate revocation of the driver's license of a female lawyer involved in a traffic violation in Kawit, Cavite.
01:55Based on the initial investigation, traffic enforcer Michael Trejico flagged down the said motorist after she side-swiped a tricycle.
02:04However, instead of stopping and settling the matter, the lawyer speed up, forcing Trejico to cling on to the hood of the vehicle.
02:12Kesa naman po mapilaliman ako, doon na po ako sa hood.
02:16Hanggang tumatakbo po, tinulina niya pa po yung pagtakbo niya at pinaantar pa po yung wiper.
02:25Hanggang makalating kami sa bahay niya, hindi po pagpaba niya po ng sasakyan, minura niya po ako.
02:32According to Secretary Deason, the DOTR is ready to provide legal assistance to Trejico.
02:38The lawyer is now facing charges of direct assault.
