    I agree with the memorandum fully.

    all of it makes sense.

    1) bawal overloading.
    2) magseatbelt LAHAT ng pasahero
    3) trash annoying and dangerous modifications like poorly aimed foglights, noisy mufflers, blinding HIDs

    4) slippers do have a tendency to get stuck. mas safe pa na mag paa ka nalang mag drive.

    Again like some of the rules of LTO it's subject to interpretation.

    "For modifying any part of the original design of a private vehicle without approval of LTO and the DTI a fine of P2,000."

    Like this for example, some enforcers can even claim changing your wheel size can be a cause for fine. I know it's silly but they sometimes do that, lalo na pag may topak! I agree with the other provisions except on the exhaust pipe and hid lights since I don't have real technical knowledge on this.

    For the slippers part, there is a safety issue here because sometimes your slippers can get tangled on the pedals. I used to drive with crocs slippers before in the US not knowing it was illegal. Good thing I never got caught. Anyway, I always have a slip on shoe near the door so I put it on whenever I drive.

    Dapat lang yun seatbelt, if it's there, use it.

    Yes, bawal na ang mga maiingay na muffler di na ako magigising sa gitna ng gabi.

    As for the HID lights, I disagree. I believe they should only ban typical HID-slap-on-halogen-enclosures as these really blind incoming cars due to their "sabog" light output. If it's properly retrofitted, HID lamps shouldn't be a problem. I think kilangan nila ng revision dito, for sure madami magaabuso nito. What about higher-end cars where HID lamps come as stock?

    As for the no-overloading ban, alam ko may batas na tayo dito eh. But (as usual ) minimal or no implementation at all. I still see jeeps packed like sardines and even have 3-4 people just hanging on the outside.

    ako din agree dyan.. sorry for my term 'may sapak'.. kaso yung * For modifying any part of the original design of a private vehicle without approval of LTO and the DTI a fine of P2,000. , kalokohan yun.. pano pa natawag na private vehicles, kung LTO din ang magsasabi kung ano pwede.. isa pa yung * Installation of HID headlight 4300K and up color temperature a fine of P5000., para sakin ok lang to eh.. kasi ang hirap talaga ng halogen lamps lalo na sa gabi tapos sa aspalto ka pa dumadaan.. parang wala kang ilaw.. ok lang sana HID basta naka projector type, at di nakakasilaw sa iba..

    pero proposal palang naman ito.. di pa ata approved.. sana ayusin nila yan..

    In other countries, like Australia, meron silang allowable limit for changing tire sizes for each type of vehicle.

    Tama lang naman mga proposed guidlelines sa memorandum na yan. It's about time. Sana hindi maging ningas cogon ulit ito if approved.

    Anong kalokohan 'to?

    Pag nagkabit ka ng step board, may fine na?

    Kasi naiba na yung itsura ng kotse mo?

    * Installation of HID headlight 4300K and up color temperature a fine of P5000.
    Yung 3000K HID ligtas?

    Di lang stepboard. It can be interpreted to include stuff like:

    -car window visors
    -car body kits
    -roof racks
    -air filters
    -bull bars
    -tow hitch
    -winch
    -window tint
    -seat covers
    -extra wide rear view mirrors
    -upgraded HU & speakers
    -car alarms
    -etc

    because all of these probably don't have LTO/ DTI certification too.

    An unenforcable law is a useless & pointless law.

    Frankly we have enough laws if the police, mmda and others would simply enforce them properly.

    We should have a law to protect us (normal citizens) from the law makers from writing and passing more stupid laws.
