Anyway, Im still hoping our government will come to its senses and ban all this kind of contraptions in the streets. The state should compel those TODAs to follow certain standards for their 3 wheelers. And they can easily copy those made in China to make their vehicles safer, efficient and look alot better.
When will the government come to its senses? Certainly not until 2010 which is election year. Owners of this contraptions will get away with it, i.e non-payment of registration fees, emmission test and yet they use the roads and cause traffic. I am not so sure if they require a driver's license to operate one of this. The "tyranny of the poor", mahirap lang po kami - the owners will reason out.

We could now see an evolution of the pedal pushing "side-cars" to this motorized three wheelers which some folks call the "tricikan".

Brisk business for sellers of those Briggs and Straton gasoline engine water pumps.
