MANILA, Philippines -- The Philippine National Police (PNP) is cracking down on motorists who use sirens, blinkers, expired commemorative plates and colored covers for license plates.

Chief Superintendent Perfecto Palad, chief of the PNP’s Traffic Management Group (TMG), told the Philippine Daily Inquirer that on Monday, his men will spread out into the streets of Metro Manila to flag down motorists using sirens, blinkers and vehicles with expired commemorative license plates and colored protectors for their license plates. The items will then be confiscated by the TMG.

He said he and his men will come out on Monday in full force to confiscate these items. “Let this serve as a warning to motorists to take out these items from their vehicles by then,” Palad said.

Also on in their list are license plates with the words “Mayor” or “Councilor.” Palad said these license plates are not authorized to be used by motorists. For plastic covers of license plates, Palad said any tint or color that obstructs the view of the license plates will also be confiscated.

Palad also enjoined the motoring public to report to the TMG motorists on the road using sirens, blinkers and the unauthorized plates through cellphone number 0928-3982873.

“The public can report to us any motorists using these items and we will trace and go after these vehicles,” he said.

The TMG head also said that as of the present, only the following commemorative plates are allowed to be used by the Land Transportation Office (LTO): the 12th Asean Summit which expires on Oct. 30; the St. Scholastica Centennial Celebration which can be used up to Dec. 31, 2008; Luzon Motorcyclist Federation up to the end of October; the Kiwanis Club of St. John until April 10, 2008; the LTO’s Founding Anniversary up to July 31, 2008; the Cannonization of St. Marie Eugenie of Jesus up to Dec. 3, 2008, and the PGH 100th Anniversary Foundation which can be used until the end of 2008.

Ang alam ko talaga any sort of cover is illegal. It might look clear to the naked eye, but even the clear ones can screw up pictures pag may flash, lalo na yung sa mga auto-picture speed traps.

I hope we all start reporting all these guys, including those with colored plate covers. Yung mga may colored covers -- I suggest you remove them immediately.

Yun nga ang problema eh, it's not done to all kaya kung ikaw hinuli medyo bad trip kasi yun iba ginagawa din naman o mas tinted pa yun plates. katulad nung isa, may sticker lang di na hinuli for beating the red light, hindi tama e, the law should be implemented for everyone.
