Efren de Luna, president of the Philippine Confederation of Drivers Organizations – Alliance of concerned Transport Organizations (PCDO-ACTO), said they have observed that enforcers do not apprehend violating government vehicles.

"It seems like government vehicles are exempted from the law. Many of these vehicles are still not equipped with seat belts or their passengers do not comply," he noted.

With the shutdown of the sanitary landfill in San Mateo, Rizal just eight weeks away, garbage is piling up in many parts of Metro Manila. That could mean a garbage crisis to greet the new year.

Too many laws, too little enforcement. This has often been used to describe law enforcement in this country. The problem is again being highlighted with the passage of the Clean Air Act and the Seat Belt Law.
