THE Land Transportation Office (LTO) in Metro Manila has observed the Road Safety Month with seminars, motorcade and law enforcement drives to align with the Department of Transportation’s theme “Drive to Protect: Safe Streets, Safe Children.”
LTO regional director Roque Verzosa, along with assistant regional director Dennis Barrion, spearheaded the start of the week-long observance of the Road Safety Month on the last week of May with a motorcade through major roads in Metro Manila to raise public awareness on road safety.
On May 20, at least 35 Move It riders participated in a motorcycle seminar under Republic Acts 10054, 8750 and 10666.
Last May 21, staff from the Philippine General Hospital also attended a road safety training, while Navy personnel completed a theoretical driving course under the LTO-on-Wheels program, with student permit applications also being facilitated.
