“Sa pagsasagawa ng motor vehicle registration caravan, ipinapakita ng inyong LTO na hindi lang kami puro enforcement. We are also finding ways to make our services fast and comfortable like this program, which is designed to bring the services of the LTO closer to our clients (by conducting the motor vehicle registration caravan, the LTO shows that we are not just about enforcement. We are also finding ways to make our services fast and comfortable like this program, which is designed to bring the services of the LTO closer to our clients),” Mendoza said.
The LTO reported that a total of 56 license driver’s licenses were renewed in the first few hours of the caravan in Quezon City. At the same time, 24 delinquent motor vehicle owners renewed the registration of their vehicles in the said location last Saturday.
“May mga kababayan kasi tayo na nasa trabaho mula Lunes hanggang Biyernes at hindi makahanap ng oras para magpa-renew ng lisensya dahil busy sa trabaho at sayang din naman nga ang kikitain (we have people who are at work from Monday to Friday and cannot find time to renew their license because they are busy with work and it is a waste of money),” explained Mendoza.
“Sa pamamagitan ng caravan, they will be given the opportunity to renew their driver’s license at a time na wala silang pasok sa trabaho, at ang LTO pa mismo ang lalapit sa kani-kanilang lugar (through the caravan, they will be given the opportunity to renew their driver's license at a time when they are not at work, and the LTO itself will come to their respective areas),” added the LTO Chief Assistant Secretary.
On top of the registration caravan, the LTO has also set up priority lanes for the registration of delinquent motor vehicles.
“We expect more vehicle owners to register their motor vehicles in the coming days because of this motor vehicle registration program that will be implemented across the country,” noted Mendoza.
