SILANG, Cavite—Twenty-three motorists were meted traffic citation tickets and eight motorcycles were impounded by the Silang police and traffic management office at a checkpoint along MH Del Pilar Street here on Thursday.
The checkpoint was set up following complaints by citizens that many motorists violated traffic laws in the area, said Police Chief Insp. Lory E. Tarrazona, officer in charge of the Silang Municipal Police Station.
The motorists were booked for different violations, as the police said the checkpoint also meant to arrest potential carnapping and motor-napping attempts, detain suspected “riding in tandem” assassins and prevent potential victims of a car rental scam running rampant in the province.
