Taken from another forum:

Soon to be Administrative Order AHS 2008-035
Under planning pa.

==============
LTO Chief Alberto Suansing is planning to implement stricter guidelines for 4 wheel vehicle owners/drivers as well as their passengers.

The amended guidelines are as follows:

1. Carrying of Restriction Code 2 (RC 2) on the drivers license.
2. Confiscate and fined HID headlights 4300k color and up
3. All passengers of private cars needs to have seatbelt, including the back passengers.


Additional proposed items from the LTO Guidelines:

A. Drivers and All Passengers who fail to use seatbelt will be fined P1,500/passenger plus attending seminar for traffic and vehicle safety to be conducted by LTO.

B. For carrying more passenger other than the normal seating capacity, a penalty of P1,000/per passenger.

C. For defective accessories such as headlight, tail light, signal light, brake light, side mirror and horn a fine of P1,000 for the violators.

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

E. Wearing of slippers fine of P500 for the first offense, P700 for the 2nd offense and P1,000 for the 3rd offense and revocation of driver’s license.

F. Installation of HID headlight 4300K and up color temperature a fine of P5000.

G. Installation Open free flow exhaust pipe other than the original exhaust pipe a fine of P3000.

Some are understandable, but wearing of slippers? in a 4 wheel motor vehicle? come on!

Plus the modifying any part of the design crap is just too broad... you could get pulled over for just changing your rims -.-

Fining of HIDs is also in the wrong context... they should fine the wrong INSTALLATION of HIDs not just having an HID... cause most of the bad rap from HID users are from people who DO NOT use projector housings on their HIDs and blind oncoming cars ... sigh (and I don't use HIDs by the way :P can't afford them)

Kinda makes me wonder that they're doing this deliberately so that you'll forget about the traffic problem in Cebu and focus on this issue :P

But still ... ... ... glad I'm riding my bike everyday now instead of driving :P

How I WISH they could assign somebody who's a car enthusiast himself to head up LTO ... ... but that's a dream that's not gonna become a reality.

dapat siguro mag sige kay busina bro like everybody's doing on the road ... pirting saba.a ... if you're too silent they could pull you over and say something like "I'll have to fine you for having a defective horn, you didn't sound your horn when the light turned green" :P

wearing of slippers? this is probably for jeepney drivers and that's long been due for implementation.

how would they know I'm wearing slippers on a tinted car? pull me over just to see if I got my sneakers on? hehehe
