    The reason dilapidated vehicles will always be there is because no politician is crazy enough to pass legistlation that is very anti-poor. We all know kailangan ito gawin kaso na lang anti-poor ang dating niya.

    Not to mention a lot of old schoolers will either be offended or join the protest rally even if their ride have been invited to join the junk yard.

    Road safety legislation?

    Dapat lang na kontra yan sa lahat ng taong mahihirap -- yung mga mahirap pagsabihan, mahirap turuan, mahirap umintindi.

    Mga gusto pang masaktan eh, bago nila makuha yung punto ng batas.

    I've heard of some countries where in they levy a higher car registration fee every year as the car gets older. Everyone wins, govt gets more revenue, old schoolers keep their rides (so long as these rides are in proper working order meaning they're not a road hazzard or nusance) and it encourages people to buy new cars that are safer, fuel efficient & environmentally friendly.

    Tens of thousands of Filipinos die directly and indirectly from dilapidated cars. It is just that no one cares enough to do anything about it.

    We all have the laws but none of them are strictly implemented.

    One best example is during registration or renewal, pansinin nyo dun sa MVIR (yung form na pinifill-up). There's a portion there (Operation/Safety Test and Identification/Inspection) wherein the inspector will have to check everything like kung oks lahat ng lights, tires, and mind you, andun lahat about safety.

    This is simply ignored if not totally forgotten. Kung susundin lang ito, malamang walang nai-register na bulok na sasakyan or yung mga hindi roadworthy. IMO, it doesn't matter what year, be it 10 or 20 years before i-phaseout, but then again, it's the safety that really matters. Basta roadworthy pede pa yan kahit na ba 40 years na. My point is we should have responsibility in maintaining our own vehicles not just for ourselves but for the sake of others.

    better think again.... Some OLD cars runs even better than the not-taken-care-of new ones...

    So, what I'm saying is your suggestion cannot be applied as a solution ('coz matagal nang panukala yan, but di nga kasi pwede). Dapat talaga mas strict inspections sa LTO during registrations. Kung hindi road worthy, wag bigyan ng registration.

    grabe halos lahat yata ng nasakyan kong taxi for the past year, consistent, maraming kung anong tunog ang maririnig mo. Yung iba kulang na lang tanggalin yung flooring, may mga part na wala ng cover.
