You don't?

FYI, gov't vehicles are supposed to be used only to carry out intra-curricular activities of the departments in which they are assigned. These cars are not to be seen on the road after office hours, which obviously disallows usage during weekends and holidays.

In other words, those cars are not theirs to use for personal/family concerns. While we may not be able to trace completely what's being done to them, we can at least minimize the frequency of this illegal doing. For one thing, we shouldn't see red plates running at night.

FYI.

Some vehicles are assigned as a personal transport (including a driver sometimes) to high-ranking officials (depends on the department / office) - usually this is to entice notable people from the private sector to work for the government.

And hagiber is right, work in the government doesn't stop at 5PM. What if they were hosting a conference / forum and it ended late? Or that they have to meet with people outside of the office? Or that these persons are just on the way home?

So there are really loopholes here. There's no telling which is which. Others abuse because they are likely not to be distinguished from those legitimately using the red-platers.

There should be clear signs on the vehicle stating which department it belongs to, so that we need not be suspicious on those that are on the road 24/7.

MYOB na lang siguro ang dapat natin ipairal as mamamayan regarding these issue of govt. vehicles. I think some of us are getting too excited with this misuse of govt. vehicles. mahirap din na baka sa sobrang pagpansin ay lalong nde ma-deliver ang basic govt. services.

with the traffic & the uncertainty in manila streets, I doubt na masusunod naman parati on time lahat. there is still a line between being a responsible reporting citizen or being an invader of privacy, be it public or private, tao pa din ang pinaguusapan dito.

while I agree that madalas talagang magamit for personal use ang mga gov't vehicles (Dapat may tatak sa gilid na " For Official use also", hindi pa rin indication of misuse yung makita mo ang mga ito after office hours. Yung mga vehicles ng Pagcor for example, 24 hours un dre.
