Hindi ko alam kung T ba talaga tong si George San Mateo [which was exposed as having NO franchise / let alone being a jeepney driver himself].

You are further alienating the harrassed commuting public / motorists / the general public.

Rather than support the government's effort in jeepney modernization and route rationalization, you continue to shout “Pekeng modernisasyon ni Duterte! Tutulan! Labanan!”

The government thru the DOTr and the LTFRB has been crystal clear about this:

“Uulitin namin wala pong phase-out ng jeepney as a denomination. Ang inaayos po natin dito ay anong klaseng jeepney ang ilalagay natin sa daanan,” said Lizada.

(We repeat, there is no phase out of jeepneys as a denomination. What we are trying to arrange is the type of jeepney that will be allowed on the road.)

Government will help / assist the operators / driver with a subsidy and financing program.

Wala. Ayaw pa din.

enough with the words!
i'd like to see the new "jeepneys" on the road, or the refitted electric jeepneys i read about some months ago.

but even more, i'd like to see order and discipline practiced by the drivers.

For me it doesn't matter Kung modern jeeps or not. But kailangan naman talagang palitan na yun mga bulok. What Id rather like to see from transport agency natin is ayusin nila mga drivers. Kahit anong modern ng sasakyan kung bulok yun nagmamaneho, ganun pa rin.

Lahat ng PRO DL holders, Re evaluate din nila dapat meron re-test. Tapos limit na rin nila yun pagkuha ng PRO or gawa sila ng bagong Category na License for public vehicles. Yearly meron evaluation sa kanila. Categorize nila kung taxi, jeep, bus or truck imamaneho hinde pwedeng mag cross over. Pag lilipat ng i Drive Like from jeepney to taxi or vise versa kukuha ulit ng License na para kung ano Drive niya. Saka dapat meron certification from company na hire nga nila yun driver para pag walang sure na trabaho as driver hindd pwede makakuha ng PRO DL.

+1 on this. They should simultaneously implement the PUV & "Driver's" modernization. For a fact, madami na din modern buses pero drivers are still primitive and barbaric.

Can't the government just cancel the operator's franchise kung ayaw sumunod sa bagong patakaran? Ang franchise naman diba parang privilege lang na kayang bawiin ng government na siya naman talaga nagbibigay?

Pabor ata kasi mga senado diyan sa mga umaangal eh tulad ng piston. Kaya kahit anong nais pa nila para matanggal lang sila, hindi basta basta masisibak yan pagdating sa proseso. Mga 'Never Say Die' mga yan eh, parang gsm lol.

Definitely agree with this. Most of the puv drivers don't know the rules of the road. Those drivers are causing more traffic.

Ang nabasa ko phase out daw talaga and hinde modernization. Kasi yun budget na ₱3B for subsidy is good for 3k units lang so what happens to the rest. I think that's their point.
