Security Bolts on Plates

[zoomzoom]

I thought sabi ng LTO may security itong Bolt na ito correctt me if I'm wrong, kasi kanina around 12nn may nakita akong Eon nakadikit sa plate holder niya Lost plate AAK pa umpisa eh

Security bolt my a$$. LTO talaga bugok. Utak pera-pera lang palagi. Expect to see more and more of these on the road:

[ninjababez]

Dapat hinabaan nila yung screw eh, that way may option to cut yung owner incase sobra.

[e2romo]

Pati tornilyo pinagkaperahan ng gobyerno, 5k penalty sa mga hindi gagamit nito.

So ngayon pati tornilyo kailangan issued ng gobyerno.

[testament11]

Tignan niyo, pag dumami na naman ang mga motorist na magagalit sa ruling ng LTO sa bolts, bigla-bigla na naman itong magsasabi na "suspended na ang LTO bolt implementation". Oh screw them talaga :hammer:

[JonJon Villegas]

Bihira ako mag mura pero mapapa mura ka talaga sa ganitong balita fvtang1naLTO

[jdjoeydean]

kami di binigyan ng screw. Binalikan namin, sabi may binigay, pinakita namin ang o.r. (intact lahat ng staple wire). Wala naman naka attach, pinabalik-balik kami for 2 days, para makuha ang screw...

[boybi]

I asked the LTO here, wala naman sila binebentang replacement screws.

[zoomzoom]

Kahit yung Security Barcode pala mukhang "FOR DISPLAY ONLY".

Wala na ginawang tama ang LTO kundi ang holdapin tayong mga mortorista.

Of course you know that the Land Transportation Office has been busy supplying new-design plates as mandated by its Motor Vehicle License Plate Standardization Program. Now, these new plates don't only look new--apparently, they're also "high-tech," featuring a barcode that supposedly contains the vehicle's plate number, engine number, chassis number, third-plate sticker number, and (would you believe?) even the serial number of the plate locks.

Needless to say, this "high-tech" feature was factored in the costing of the new plates. So one really curious dude by the name of Paul Uy tried to check if said barcode is really functional. Here is his report, which he posted on his Facebook page:

I tested the so-called barcode security feature of the new LTO plates. I tested it using a high-density CCD-type (charge-coupled device) barcode scanning device with medium- and close-range capabilities. And as expected, the barcode was unreadable.

One guy countered: "Maybe it's for a long-range scanner--for when you're driving on the road or the highway."

Which another guy addressed: "I don't think so. A Code 128 barcode with that kind of width isn't for long range. That's only for mid and short ranges. The question is: What is this barcode for? We're paying for it."

So we contacted LTO spokesperson Jason Salvador yesterday and asked for his agency's statement on the matter. He first told us he'd call. We followed up and never got a reply. We're still waiting.

^ Hindi naman lahat Ng enforcer me Hawak Ng barcode reader. Effective pa din pag me violation tandaan yung plate nos. ang barcode parang Bumili ka Lang Ng Pancit canton Kung extra hot o Tamils anghang etc.
We all know that LTO isa sa corrupt na agency.

we all know we are paying to fund the admin's bet for 2016 election.

Nothing has changed in the Philippines since Pnoy has become president. Corruption still persists. DAP is the biggest ever. Infrastructure projects slowest in years. The only good thing that happened is the expose against binay however I doubt if they will still pursue binay after 2016.

Uso kasi ang bar code, kaya sumasabay lang sila..

Sabi ng LTO yung bagong plaka with all those security features will thwart all would be carnappers and thieves. Yeah right, eh konting baha lang pala katapat ng mga bagong plaka na yan at wala na binatbat, tapos na ang boksing, sira agad, tanggal agad, problema agad.

Mga abnoy ba kayong lahat diyan sa ahensiya?

HOY LTO, GISING!!!!!!!!!!! Pinupulot na kayong lahat sa kangkungan ah.

DRIVING THROUGH FLASH FLOOD REVEALS JUST HOW FLIMSY THE NEW LICENSE PLATES ARE


We sincerely wish we could completely refrain from writing about license plates or anything that has to do with the Land Transportation Office. We fear we're beginning to sound like we're in the middle of a smear campaign to discredit this government agency.

But what can we do? The stories just keep flooding our mailbox.

And speaking of flooding, here are two separate reports about how driving through a flash flood will easily damage the new-design license plates.

First, Joel Buenrostro (top photo) tells us:

I just want to share how poor the quality of the new LTO plates are. This is what happened to my front plate when I drove through knee-deep flood this afternoon (June 18). Question is: How can I have this fixed when it is screwed permanently?

Second, Anthony Demition (photo below) reports:

We found this plate here on our street (G. Molina) in Canumay East in Valenzuela City, due to the sudden rush of flood from heavy rains a while ago (June 18). Kindly post on your page so the owner can claim it. My mobile number is (0933) 260-5299.

We don't want to say anything else. You be the judge. We just want to warn you now that the floody season has begun.

Bukas makalawa sasabihin ng LTO OK na ulit mag plate covers sa bagong mga plaka para iwas tupi. Pero LTO ka lang makakabili ng plate covers na yun.

They really need to re-allow use of plate protection against this flood damage, pedestrians hitting/bending it, minor accidents. Then provide common sense enforcement against limiting the view of the plates - shaded/tinted plate covers, plate tilting, stickers.

na curious ako sa hindi mabasang barcode ng new LTO plates, so i tried using QR reader apps of my phone. and guess what... it works! so baka may plan silang iiequip ng smart phones ang mga TE with barcode scanner apps that will automatically search their database to get the details of the car. sana nga ganito ang plan nila para naman di masayang yong binayaran natin sa new plates. but knowing LTO, maybe it will happen 10 years from now...

wala akong video but you can try it yourself. just download any barcode scanner apps if you don't have one on your phone. i think hindi talaga magwowork yong barcodes using standard barcode scanners kasi napakaliit ng bars for the sensors to detect the change in light intensity compare sa phone cam na iaanalyze lang yong image and once na may magmatch na pattern that's it.
