Jeepney Phase out by 2016

[StockEngine]

sorry Piston, not sorry

I hate all these empty jeeps Baguio causing traffic. wala naman laman. if they didn't have that much emissions and they don't occupy the roads and the shoulders(parked). i wouldn't go against them.

DOTC rush to phase out jeepney in 2016 more of a rush for commissions ? Piston « Bulatlat

things i hate in baguio.

grabe parking ng jeep sa st. ana bridge.

if crimes would go up because of these jeepney drivers losing their livelihood. increase the police to citizen ratio..

[badkuk]

pwede bang yung mga jeepney driver ang palitan? Pushing e-jeeps will cut down on pollution, but it won't make them better drivers.

There no sense to be paranoid. From old dilapidated corollas to brand new vios ang taxis. Buses are now not rolling coffins, may design naman presentable.

It's time for the jeepney to be regulated and upgraded para naman mag-match sa progress natin na tinatamada ngsun

It will also put a curb on smuggling paubra engines and sometimes cause accident and death

It's high time we phase out these excuse of a vehicle

The big question is,will our government have the political will to push through with it? Given that it is election year again in 2016..hhhmmmmm.

Hayskul pa lang ako sinasabi na yan ng gobyerno, 1 year na lang ga-gradweyt na sa koleyds eldest ko 😃 yun pa rin sinasabi about phasing out the puj...LoL

Air quality index of metro manila is 150+ micrograms per normal cubic meters.

Over 50% above good index.

Sharp will have a good business with their air purifiers once these pulmonologists and chest doctors recommend air purifiers.

Kalokohan yan. With the attitude of filipinos. Nako..

I'm all for this change.

Unlike a few here, I refuse to take the cynical views of the issue. I would like to have my children enjoy clean air in the future. This is going to be a major step for the government, but they have to start somewhere.

Instead of outright refusing to replace old jeepneys, citing how 'well-maintained' their current jeeps are or how expensive the EVs are, etc., PISTON should rather consider negotiating for a transition program that will allow them to exchange their old jeeps for e-PUVs that does not put too much dent on their wallet.

I also support na mangyari talaga to. Kaso suntok sa buwan ata yan sa ngayon kahit pa next 5 yrs

I guess FX Taxis were phase out already? Why not... these jeepneys are worse than these fx's if you ask me.
But expect more resistance from them because they have the numbers

i recently took a one hour walk in busy kowloon in HK.. afterward, upon cleaning the inside of my nose (pardon! but there's no other way to say it.), there was no carbon.
walking along metro manila road.. as little as 10 minutes.. carbon in nose.

piston has been threatening to do what it threatens to do, for years now..
it's time to put it where it belongs... under the law!

wanna improve metro manila air? tax diesel fuel very heavily! give hefty tax breaks to electric vehicles.

I agree dapat i-tax na mga idesel users, everest, fortuner, montero, mux. But not crossovers coz less csrbon footprint coz car like naman

Removing the government subsidy for diesel won't stop them from using our roads. They'll just pass it over the "extra" to the riding public.
Political will to implement any existing laws to prevent them plying our roads might be the answer

Gov't talks about replacing jeepneys with e-jeeps as if they were changing a lightbulb; they seldom think about providing the supporting infra:

-- do we have enough charging stations? How long does it take to fully charge an e-jeep? Do we have enough batteries and how much to they cost?
-- do we have enough mechanics to service these e-jeeps? Spare parts?

Ganyan ang nangyari sa CNG bus project ni GMA; me nauto siyang bus companies into joining the project, kaso walang CNG refilling stations.


imho, should government really push this w/o giving ample infra, dalawa lang ang mangyayari: jeepney drivers will go back to using old dirty diesel jeepneys, or they will sell their jeepneys and get a taxi/FX/UV express/Uber franchise.

Dapat lang, i-phase out na nga itong mga kumag na ito. May mga nakikita ako dito sa amin, bukod sa tabingi na, butas pa yung floorin. & yet, updated pa sa rehistro.
Pano nakalusot yung ganun?

Minsan may nasakyan pa ako, sumakay ako sa harap. Pansin ko, yung kambyo, di umaabot sa quinta. Prang hanggang tersera lang. Ha-ha.
At madalas, umiigkas yung kambyo. Bwisettt.
