FORTY-EIGHT vehicles and 18 motorcycles that do not have plate numbers or are illegally registered have been impounded at the Camp Crame national police headquarters on Thursday after the "unannounced" implementation of the "no plate, no travel" policy by the Philippine National Police.
The impounded vehicles, all from Metro Manila, were seized by the PNP in operations that started early on the same day.

Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Angelo Reyes inspected the impounded vehicles and said the policy would be implemented all over the country.

"In the continuing fight against crime and violations of the law, we have ordered the Traffic Management Group of the entire PNP to impound all vehicles and motorcycles with no plates, unauthorized plates, expired plates, and expired conduction stickers or fabricated plates," Reyes told a press conference.

"We will impound and impound until such time that everybody will learn to respect the law, very simple regulation [motorists cannot follow]," Reyes added.

Reyes said most of those that were impounded on Thursday were newly purchased, but he added that owners should not use this as an excuse not to have license plates.

He said conduction stickers provided for these vehicles were valid only for their transport to the owners' homes from the showrooms where they were bought.

"In reality, conduction stickers are only for transporting a car from the showroom to the residence, then the owner is given seven [working] days to arrange papers for the issuance of [a] plate number," said Reyes.

I've heard of the PNP making isolated announcements on the "No Plate, No Travel" policy before, so this hardly comes as a surprise to me.

Buti na lang nag-insist kami na kunin yung plaka kasabay ng unit sa showroom...

[the_wildthing]

Yeah yeah... kagabi lang may 89-92 Galant walang plaka sa harap eh. Nakapark sa Caltex KFC Buendia.

Di pa nate-tyempuhan or matapang yung may-ari dahil malakas ang kapit?

[DragOn]

eh yung mga ibang idiotico government vehicles nga ang walang plaka eh..how did i know government vehicle sila even if i did not see red plates? they were damn police revos or otherwise had those stickers at their doors

[KCboy]

mga fx nga lang, kung saan saan byahe, d pa mahuli, syempre, mga private vehicles titirahin kasi sila ang may pera.

as to reyes' comments as posted by baldo...

what if it took more than 7 days? di ka makakatravel right? eh what for na bumili ka kotse if you can't travel, and hindi mo naman kasalanan na you haven't gotten the plate yet? dami butas yang mga rules na yan eh, yun ang masama.

our plate kasi took almost 3 weeks to arrive. dunno why. basta antagal, di naman kami natiyempohan.

[kuyapete]

good morning. I also got my plate 3 weeks after I got my vehicle, and that is with kasamang pangungulit. the question I would like to throw to everyone is this?
1. ano nga ba ang procedure ng pag process ng plates na yan, bakit ang tagal?
2. Di ba ang registration isang araw lang? san napupunta yung ibang araw?

[20vanda01]

Madami kasing mga motorist ang nagpapatakbo ng sasakyan na walang plate, mga iba nagpapalusot, mga iba naman valid ang reasons. But making it more uncomfortable to many is that like KCboy said, inuuna nilang huliin ang mga private motorist.

OT: Dito sa Cavite daming mga passenger jeeps na green plate. Di ba bawal 'yon? Takot ba mga LTO/pulis sa mga jeepney organizations nila, dahil baka mag-strike?

[nugundam93]

kuyapete: your questions are as good as mine ;)

[OTEP]

Sa Sapang Palay, Bulacan lang halos lahat ng sasakyan ng city hall ang ng police force walang plaka, eh.

Hulihin na lang nila ang isa't-isa! Hehehe.

[baurtwellXUV]

di pwede nila iinforce ung mga new acquired vehicles na no plate no travel... in cases nga di ba minsan 2-3 weeks bago lumabas yung mga plates?! dapat bigyan naman nila ng consideration yung mga motorists na may bagong vehicle na wala pang plates...

[silhouette]

dapat kasi simultaneous ang operation. and initial step sana is to expedite the processing and release of license plates. pero kung dun pa lang may delay na, eh kahit anong gawin natin palpak at palpak ang sistema.
minsan siguro kasalanan din ng mga owners.

[mazdamazda]

marami kasi... nakuha na ung plaka hindi lang kinakabit... tulad kahapon nung nahuli ako.

[baurtwellXUV]

-m2-

naks naman! may bago kayong car?! yung sakin kasi lagpas ng 90days yung plate ko nung sa crosswind eh... deadly sa tagal!

[ts1n1ta]

kme den yung sentra. we just got the plates last week. so mga a little more than 5 weeks inabot.
Dami nga ganyan. dad ko gawain yan eh may plaka na nde pa ikakabit hanggang makalusot. tsskkk naughty tong tatay ko. ako naman gusto ko may plaka agad. kakatakot mag travel pag ala feeling ko may mga carnapper nakaabang sa auto.

[baiskee]

[ts1n1ta]

ahahaha! it's a game. It's GUESS MY PLATE NUMBER!?

[jagxtrm]

[Mojo]

hehehe patay yung sasakyan na lang pag na tyempuhan, sasabihin ng LTO kuha ka bagong plates, hehe aabutin din bwan yan hehehe

[theveed]

Kanina sa Ortigas meron, mga naka commemorative hininto din, may malaking karatula sa road saying that there's an ongoing implementation of NPNTP...

Sakin lang, dapat lang talaga gawin yan, yes, madaming PUV na dapat din huliin, yes madaming Govt vehicles na guilty, but kung walang plaka ang private o gumagamit ng comm plates, dapat din mahuli.

Dalawa hininto kanina na comm plate, isang LAWYER, isang COUNCILOR hehe...
