According to SunStar, the student, as mentioned above violated road rules for driving in Dakbayan in Lapu-Lapu to his school while using a loud siren.

Lapu-Lapu City Mayor Junard “Ahong” Chan said that the student is scheduled to be surrendered to the Land Transportation Office (LTO) this January 27, 2020. This was further echoed by Central Visayas Regional Director Victor Caindec.

In the viral video, which is an Instagram story, the man is apparently late in his exam in an aeronautic school in Lapu-Lapu. This was from an account “JasmineKingChan” as she recorded the actions of the student, who has the account “jnspencer21”.

Netizens speculated that the JasmineKingChan is owned possibly by the mayor’s daughter, possibly named Jasmine King Chan. The man in the story is said to be her boyfriend.

As per the report, Caindec will charged the man with reckless driving, failure to wear seat belt, and the violation of Presidential Decree No. 96.

PD 96 was signed in January 13, 1973 by former President Ferdinand Marcos, which declares the unlawful use or attachment of sirens, bells, horns, whistles, or similar gadgets that produce exceptionally loud or startling sounds.

As for Chan, he clarified that he will not tolerate wrongdoings, especially from his family members.

“As mayor, I condemn the viral video which allegedly happened here in Lapu-Lapu City. I call upon LTO to conduct an investigation to identify and penalize the traffic violator therein. As the father of the city, I will extend my full support to LTO in their quest for the truth. My administration will not tolerate such abuse whether it involves a friend or a family member. We hope to get to the bottom of this very soon,”
