00:00E-trike, e-bike, and scooter riders, listen up.

00:04Enjoy your mobile vehicles on the wide and busy national highways all you want till this weekend.

00:10Beginning Monday next week, using these roads are absolutely outlawed

00:15with ride impoundment and monetary fines awaiting violators

00:18as we hear more from our Bernard Ferrer.

00:24This is part of intensified measures to ensure public safety.

00:28Vehicles that are caught will be immediately impounded by the LTO.

00:32However, the agency will first conduct a 5-day information drive on secondary roads

00:36before fully implementing the policy.

00:39At present, e-bikes and e-trikes are not registered with the LTO.

00:44There's no way that the government will be able to enforce accountability

00:47in case of mishaps or accidents or even crimes committed using these vehicles.

00:53If the operation of these vehicles will not be regulated,

00:59ensuring public safety will be an uphill battle for the government.

01:04The LTO is also preparing the registration process for e-bike, e-trike, and e-scooter users,

01:10including the fines to be imposed on violators.

01:13The agency has addressed questions regarding the Electric Vehicle Industry Development Act, or EVIDA.

01:18Based on the IRR of the EVIDA law,

01:22exclusive private use means that these vehicles should not be operated in public highways or any government roads.

01:31And if these are to be used in such places, it must be registered with LTO.

01:36The LTO will also send a notice to the Department of the Interior and Local Government, or DILG,

01:42to inform local government units about the policy's implementation.

01:46In some areas of Metro Manila, e-trikes are used for public transport,

01:50which is why a valid driver's license is required.

01:54The LTO will coordinate with the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority, or MMDA,

01:58and the Highway Patrol Group of the Philippine National Police for operational support.

02:02Bernard Ferrer from the National TV Network for youth and better folkies.
