News Advisory: MMDA posts list of traffic violations + Twitter and Facebook updates

Published: Sep 2, 2010 - 10:32am

 

The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) now maintains an updated website and is actively utilizing social media networks Twitter and Facebook to post traffic and news updates.

The MMDA website includes a primer on "10 Things that Drivers Should Know" under the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section. Both new drivers and long-time motorists will find information on driving around the metro, including non-violations, proper use of the yellow lane, and what Traffic Enforcers are allowed to do when apprehending violators.

Under the same section, one can find information on the revised rules for the Number Coding scheme as well as an updated guide to traffic fines and penalties.



MMDA is also on Twitter with traffic updates posted daily. News clips and updates are also posted on the MMDA channel on Youtube as well as on Facebook.

    tanong ko lang sa mmda, nahuli ako ng swerving dyan sa parting tramo paliko ng papuntang edsa sa tapat ng shell, naka signal ako ng pa right hinuli pa rin ako at nag pa ticket ako pero yung mga kasabay ko din na sinita nila hindi tinicketan dahil ewan ko kung magkano inabot nila. ang sabi niyo basta na naka signal ka at mabagal at wala ka naman kasabay di dapat nila ako hinuli diba? at nung tignan ko yung violation ko disobidience on traffic rules ang nakalagay. 9:45pm yung oras nun at 8 silang enforcers na nakatumpok dun sa area na madilim. Ginagawa nilang palagatasan yang swerving na yan!!!!!!

    Ang swerving ay nagiging violation kapag bigla kang lumiko na hindi ka man lang nagsignal o kaya ay lumiko ka na hindi man lang kinonsidera ang sasakayan sa pupuntahang lane.rnrnKung nagsignal ka naman nang maayos bago lumiko, dapat e hindi ka hulihin ng MMDA. rnrnUng iba kasing MMDA, pagka-lumiko ka lang ng mejo steep kahit mabagal andar na nagsignal ka naman, sisitahin ka na.

    ang swerving lagi nakikita ng mmda pero ang naka harang na mga jeepney at bus pikit mata lang sila.

    hndi naman po talaga yun ang nlalagay po sa tiket.its reckless driving noting of swerving without proper precaution,dahil isa sa mga caused of accidents ay biglaang pagliko ng walang pakundangan.anyway pwedeng nyo naman pong sundin or hndi dahil in the last kyo pa rin ang ma aksidente po.salamat po,pwede po magtanng regarding sa mga violation.hndi kasi gagawin ng mga metro manila mayors ang ganyang amendo kung walang basehan po.

    I agree with Patty. "it's not a violation but it CAN be". What????
  • Patty Santos Sep 02 2010 @ 04:41pm Report Abuse
    Ito ang pinaka malabo at hindi clear:

    Swerving is not a traffic violation. It is defined as a movement wherein vehicles quickly shift two (2) or more lanes. However, it can be considered as a traffic violation if it is done without precautions (e.g. swerving in an abrupt manner, swerving without the use of signals).
