    I don't know if somebody has posted this but, here goes: http://www.autoindustriya.com/editor...-the-dotr.html

    A sneak peek of what the upcoming revised IRR would be like. For one, it seems to only cover "handheld communications and entertainment devices". Dashcams are NOT included, so are built-in car entertainment and infotainment systems. Mobile phones used for navigation can be mounted on top of the dashboard for as long as it is in landscape orientation and no more than "3 inches taller than the highest point of the middle section of the dashboard".

    One particular gray area is the "one-swipe or one-press motion" typically required when answering hands-free/speakerphone calls.

    And I thought they need to conduct 6 months information drive before implementing ADDA.

    Another mess coming up.

    Most dashcams won't fit behind the rear view mirror ... also if we are talking about line of sight from the driver's perspective, the area behind the right side of the rear view mirror should be larger ...

    Trinkets and non-electronic items are still allowed ... one option for now is to buy the largest rear view mirror ...

    the curved accessory rear view mirrors are a foot wide.
    and if one can adapt the VW kombi's elephant ears side mirror into a rear view...

    amy, many years ago, when accessory clip-on rear views were not yeat in style... we had a good laugh at our qaqilala, whose rear view unexpectedly broke, and, as he was in a hurry to go, got his bathroom shaving mirror (8 x 12) and taped it to the inside of his car...!

    Buti na lang at pwede kong i-mount yung action cam ko sa taas ng dashboard dahil pasok naman sa 4in safe zone. Yun na lang ipapalit ko sa dashcam. Yung Rosary na lang kaylangang ma-clarify kung bawal or hindi.
