In an unprecedented move, Mayor Vico Sotto of Pasig orders the review of all traffic enforcers of Pasig City to verify if they have proper drivers licenses and whether their vehicles (motorcycles and cars) are properly registered.

In a surprise inspection, Sotto called in all of his traffic cops and required all of them to present their drivers licenses and motor vehicle registrations, those that they use on their daily functions.

More than half of his enforcers turned out to have expired drivers licenses and a third had expired motorcycle registrations.

Sotto immediately ordered the issuance of traffic violations against these erring Pasig City enforcers and suspended them until they could get their documents in order.

“May mga nahuling nagda-drive nang WALANG LISENSYA at EXPIRED ANG LISENSYA.. tinekitan sila at in-impound ang mga sasakyan nila,” Sotto said.

“Sa wikang Ingles, may tinatawag tayong “IMPUNITY” – ang kawalan ng pananagutan para sa mga taong nasa posisyon o kapangyarihan. Hindi tayo papayag na may impunity sa ating mga ranggo,” Sotto said in his Facebook post.

“Kung nakagawian dati na exempted ang mga naka uniporme sa batas trapiko, babaguhin natin yan ngayon. Kung tutuusin, mas mataas nga dapat ang standards ng mga kawani ng pamahalaan. ‘Ika nga, alisin mo muna ang troso sa mata mo bago mo sitahin ang puwing sa mata ng iyong kapwa,” the young mayor stressed.
