Protect yourself from abusive MMDA Personnel

[Walter]

Some cities have passed their own ordinances authorizing their enforcers to confiscate licenses, like Pasay City, for example.

AFAIK

All TEs ng LGUs confiscate DLs ng violators. Kaya hassle kung dayo/napadaan ka lang tapos weekend pa.

If this is true, then they are just proliferating corruption and encouraging TEs to apprehend even non-violators. It should be repelled.

4. MMDA has confirmed that your license MAY NOT BE CONFISCATED
at a traffic apprehension. The only time they can do so is if you are part of an accident, or it is your third violation and you have not settled your fines yet. They are only allowed to give you a ticket, which you can contest. He recommends actually receiving the ticket in some instances, so that you can report the officer who did it.



Thank you for this information. I am going to print and put the info in my pocket to show the MMDA when i drive to manila another time.

Sa makati, pwede ba ung tatawag ung enforcer sa cellphone para papuntahin ung kakilala niyang enforcer para magticket? Kc daw naubusan na ng panticket at ndi makapag renew?

Thanks for sharing this! 🙏 It’s really helpful, especially for those of us who often drive around the city and sometimes deal with inconsistent enforcement from MMDA officers.

Just a quick note though — while this information is useful, some parts of that email have been circulating online for years and might be outdated or unofficial. It’s always best to double-check directly with the MMDA hotline (136) or their verified Facebook page before using it as reference during an apprehension.

Still, it’s great advice to know your rights, stay calm, and record interactions politely if something feels off. Appreciate you sharing this reminder, especially this Christmas season when traffic and stress levels are high. 🚗🎄

Pinakamagandang proteksyon against these abusive MMDAs is to follow/obey traffic rules and regulations. Mas ganado kasi akong kuwestyunin ang panghuhuli nila pag nasa lugar ako.

Also, download and print LTO's and MMDA's list of traffic violations and penalties. I keep a copy in my ride. Para alam ko ang tawaran pag nahuli at aminadong fault ko. He he he.\

Ikabit ang mga "MD" badges sa front plate #s. Pwede itong hingin sa mga kaibigan nating MedRep. Hep, you must be a Physician b4 installing 1. Baka mapasubo ka pag may roadside medical emergency.

Lastly, always keep in your wallet the calling cards given by, eherm..., friends. Siyempre gamitin lang pag halatadong iniipit na kayo ng mga damuhong ito.

Drive safely bros !

^ effective ba talaga ang mga calling cards? actually meron din kasi akong signed calling card from a certain General of PNP,, pero ibinigay lang yun sa akin ng officemate ko kasi friend nya yung officer.. sabi nga nya sakin ipakita ko lang daw sa manghuhuli..pero im kinda nervous kasi baka mamya hindi naman i honor esp hindi ko naman talaga personally kakilala yung general. twice na kami nahuli ng beating the red light though sabi naman ng driver e hindi naman daw, pero both nadala sa lagay. hindi ko pinakita yung calling card.. kung galing sa pnp yung card,, what if mmda ang manghuli, ok pa rin ba yun?

[claRkEnt]

pinaka-effective pa rin yung wala kang gagawing mali.

[chinaheart]

oo nga.pero madalas naman kasi kahit walang violation e ginagawan nila ng violation di ba. ang hirap pang makipagtalo sa kanila.

[ferrari967csl]

I'm glad.

Ask ko lang ano ba talaga trabaho ng mga MMDA?

a. Manghuli ng traffic offenders(DIUMANO)?

b. Mang-delay ng mga motorista?

c. Magkwentuhan sa daan?

d. Dekorasyon lang sa daan?

e. All of the above

Answer please....

[SlickStock]

ayos yan idol ah... at least, motorists have an ace to play against abusive mmda enforcers.

[traub78law]

Im glad for sharing us this information, many drivers dont know much about this issue so this help a lot for them.

natawa ako dun sa enforcer approaching anonas kagabi galing katipunan (around 4am) kesyo beating the red light daw. syempre sinabi ko "hindi naman ako tatakbo kung pula ang ilaw" (hindi ko pa sinabi na may dashcam ako) ang sagot ba naman "huwag mo nga ako ginagago" (for sure na capture nang dashcam), nagpintig ako at sinabi ko pakiulit ang sinabi nya at bakit nya ako minumura at sinabi ko may dashcam ako at narecord ang sinabi sabay turo dun. biglang atras si boss at sinabi hindi naman sya nag mura.

hiningan ko nang credentials at sinabi kung bakit hindi nya sinusunod ang SOP nila sa pag apprehend, sabay sabi "sige boss mauna na kayo"

TL;DR: Please mag invest sa dash cam. malaking pang deterrent sa mga k*pal na mga enforcers dyan na nagkalat.
