The Land Transportation Office (LTO) has summoned the registered owner of a motorcycle seen in a viral post carrying two back riders, including a child.
LTO chief Vigor Mendoza II said he was dismayed by the rider’s “irresponsibility,” stressing that the child, seated in the middle, wore no helmet or protective gear.
The agency’s social media team tracked down the registered owner from the post and issued a show cause order for him to appear before the LTO on October 2.
The rider faces charges for carrying excess passengers, failing to require helmets, and being an “improper person” to operate a motor vehicle. Rio N. Araja
The motorcycle, a Honda Click with plate number 430-UTN, has been placed under alarm. Once the rider’s identity is confirmed, his license will be suspended for 90 days.
