“Instead of immediately issuing tickets, the MMDA are giving warnings to motorcycle riders about the latest guidelines on backriding.
They’re doing this so riders can adjust and comply, to avoid expensive penalty tickets.
The IATF have allowed those living in the same house to ride without barrier… but the driver and passenger must use their helmet visor.
Similar videos will be shown on TV tonight as part of a public awareness campaign.
Likewise, the MMDA are still enforcing the maximum occupancy for cars, vans, buses, shuttles etc. Getting caught with excess passengers is a very expensive ticket.”
