Security in MOA can issue traffic violation ticket

[ans_lim168]

If they are deputized to issue a TVR then you have no recourse but to settle the fine....otherwise report them to the Pasay City Hall or the MMDA.

Its possible to get out of paying the fine if you would contest the ticket. You can defend your actions saying that there was no clear posted sign regarding the one-way/two-way status of the particular road you were on.

Downside, you will still have to waste your time going to their office to do it.

In the end, how much is your time worth?

they are deputized traffic enforcer ng mapsa. ako nahuli sa loob ng greenbelt for loading a passenger in a no loading and unloading zone.

MAPSA cannot deputize anybody outside of Makati City. MOA is located in Pasay City.

AFAIK, only the LTO or local government units can deputize any agency or individual to enforce traffic laws or issue traffic citation tickets.

MMDA deputized enforcer yan sir. Kaya may TVR e. You can contest the violation, kaya lang ikaw na rin nagsabi na may harang and yet tumuloy ka pa din. So may violation ka po talaga.

Sa akin naman.. MOA is a private property. MMDA is authorized only on public roads. Dapat kumuha ng authorization ang MOA sa LTO hindi sa MMDA. Parang ginawa ng NLEX and SLEX.. self-governance pero with authority by LTO. Unless may prior Memorandum ang MOA with MMDA. Another thing.. pwede ba gawin ng MMDA un magbigay ng deputized traffic authority sa private property?

bayaran mo na lang pero i-contest mo muna yung amount.

the closest violation I can see sa list ng LTO traffic violations is Violation 68B which is "Driving against traffic" and only carries a fine of Php150.00 not 2,000.

Tapos kasuhan mo yung officer ng extortion or something like that for fining you more than what is legal.

good luck

mali namang kasuhan ng extortion ung tao. ginagawa lang niya ang trabaho niya. counterflow/driving against traffic merits a 2000 Php fine as per MMDA TVR.

Sa pagkakaalam ko (and I could be wrong) ang private property ay ang MOA pero ang privately owned road lots (sa title dapat hiwalay ang road lots at ginagawa ito ng mga private land owners kasi mababa taxes) become public access hence maybe treated as public roads.

Madami kaso yan dito sa Quezon City at natalo lahat ng nag contest na private road lots nila (so they regulate access) at di pwede dumaan public. Yung road sa White Plains is one example.

May powers ba ang private security on a public access road lot (which is still owned by a private entity)? pwede pag deputized.

Ang pinagtataka ko why enforce MMDA rules on a privately owned lot? Parang nag lagay ka ng MMDA sa loob ng subdivision. Have you tried going to the Concierge or the customer care helpdesk sa mall? Mas maganda kung doon mo sa kanila itanong about yung traffic ticket na yan.



Gumagawa na naman ng bagong raket ang traffic enforcers natin ah.
