LTO revokes license of driver of Torre’s vehicle over plate misuse

The Land Transportation Office (LTO) in the Philippines revoked the driver's license of an individual who operated a vehicle marked with Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) identifiers, including a body number, siren, and blinker. The LTO discovered that the vehicle's license plate did not match its records and that the SUV was registered as a private vehicle. The driver received a show cause order on August 28 and was suspended for one year on September 4 after being labeled an 'Improper Person to Operate a Motor Vehicle.' Further investigation revealed the same driver was involved in another incident with the same vehicle, leading to additional charges. The MMDA-marked SUV remains impounded at the LTO Central Office. LTO Chief Markus Lacanilao emphasized strict enforcement of traffic laws regardless of an individual's status.
