Fake License...

[dodongo]

Hi guys,


I would just like to share my story. The past few days, we have been experiencing hellish traffic here in the metro. Trip times more than doubled for some. This heavy traffic was caused, in large part, by a unqualified driver.

Recently, my mother drove drunk. Unfortunately, she hit another car. To add to that, her license is FAKE.

She stayed in the Balintawak traffic office for a week, but this is mostly due to Glenda. She paid a fine of P5000 and was let of the hook, despite the fact that the name on her license did not match the name on her documents, and to add to that she was not suspended as is stated in this page:

* Driving without a valid driver's license - P3,000 (from P1,500) plus the offender will be disqualified from being granted a driver's license or from driving a motor vehicle for one year from the payment of the fine;

The people there just asked her to get a new license. Now she is planning to skip the steps in getting a new license, by claiming a lost license. (She got her previous license through a fixer, but was confiscated, so she got a fake license)

She is my mother, but she does not belong on the road (as is the case with many other drivers). And this case should have proven enough to rid her from it, at least for a year

Most likely the 5k she paid was a bribe.

No offense but first of all WTF is wrong with your mom?

driving drunk with a fake license, luckily she got off the hook with the price of 5K.

She still can be on the road as a passenger, but driving behind the wheels?

Do everyone a favor never ever let her drive again.

[oj88]

Consider getting her a chauffeur and that should be the end of it.

TS be a parent to your mother, talk some sense to her. she does not belong on the road as you have said.

[LRTan]

Better get her off the road before she hurts herself or worse someone else.

Totoo kaya ang kwento na eto... alam na naman nyo na fake ang license nang nanay nyo pinababayaan nyo?

bakit hindi na lang kumuha nang totoong license noon pa.

It doesn't make sense to get a fake license. You get as much effort applying for a real one.

Doesn't look like a troll post to me.

Ang advice ko lang, regardless of how incompetent you think the LTO officials are, you actually have control over the situation.

Don't wait for the LTO to be the one to apprehend your mom for having a fake license. Convince her to get a real one. Accompany her to the office.

Be responsible to watch over her if she drinks too much. Offer to pick her up.

And the deeper issue here is your Mom's reckless behaviour. I'm so sorry TS that you have to parent your mother

Even before this incident, I've wanted her off the road. She really never knew how to drive. Well, she is my mom, I can't control her.

When she told me that she was going to get her old license by getting an affidavit of loss, I expressed my disgust, that's all I could do.

She used to have a "legit" license, albeit she got it through a fixer. It was confiscated, so her well connected friend offered to get it for her. Turns out it was a fake, her middle initial on the said license is "Malacanang".

Most likely the 5k she paid was a bribe.

I guess this may have been the case.


I agree with you guys, I do have to parent my mom. Her behavior is reckless. (Heck she doesn't even work) Whenever she gets caught by TEs she either argues her way out of it or runs away, really as a fellow motorist, I want all drivers like her off the road. Unfortunately, I am her child, and I really can't do much.

Tough crowd, I guess.

I actually do pick her up after drinking often, but in this instance she did not inform any of us that she drank. (She was not suppose to)

*TS, how old are you, if you don't mind my asking? I am really bothered to know that there are mothers out there that act like your Mom. No child deserves this. And what is your Dad doing about your Mom?

Between the two of you, you are the only adult in the relationship. Until she gets her acts together, you have the right to take control. She might hurt herself and others in the end. Was she ever on drugs?

[dr. d]

in that case, get her a driver.
i think multiple apprehensions eventually end up with jail time. is this how you want the authorities to demonstrate to you, just how useful they can be in upholding the law?

Cathy, I'm 24. (and the eldest, if it matters) Dad passed away. I don't think she's ever been on drugs, her attitude has just always been... bad.

in that case, get her a driver.
i think multiple apprehensions eventually end up with jail time.

Unfortunately, we can't afford it (and now really only have one car after she wrecked our Carens)
