MANILA, Philippines — A show cause order (SCO) has been issued against the registered owner of a motorcycle who allegedly caused a public disturbance in Pasig City, the Land Transportation Office (LTO) said on Tuesday.
Citing the SCO signed by LTO-National Capital Region (NCR) director Roque Verzosa III, the owner is facing complaints for three violations relating to traffic rules, including unauthorized installation of accessories and improper person to operate a motor vehicle.
It also asked the motorcycle owner — a San Mateo, Rizal resident — to explain why he should not be held liable for the offenses after creating a loud noise caused by an accessory installed in his bike while roaming around Barangay Santolan.
LTO said the owner must appear before its NCR office on October 16 as mandated by the SCO. It added that failure to comply would mean “a waiver for the agency to proceed with the legal process.”
A copy of the SCO was already forwarded to Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista.
