Rules on MMDA Apprehension for Traffic Violations

1. MMDA officers are NOT ALLOWED TO GROUP TOGETHER in order to

apprehend. They are not even allowed to stand together in groups of 2 or
more. The only time they are allowed to work together is for special
operations.
2. Swerving IS NOT a traffic violation. Moving one lane to the left or right is
not swerving, no matter where on the road you do it. And it is even less of a
violation when you do it with a signal. Swerving is defined as shifting 2 or
more lanes very quickly.
3. Using the YELLOW LANE is a traffic violation and will get you a ticket.
However, BUSES are really NOT ALLOWED TO GO OUT of the yellow lane.
4. Your drivers license MAY NOT BE CONFISCATED at a traffic apprehension.
The only time they can do so is if you are part of an accident, or it is your
third violation and you have not settled your fines yet. They are only allowed
to give you a ticket, which you can contest. He recommends actually
receiving the ticket in some instances, so that you can report the officer who
did it.
5. Also, YOU ARE FREE TO ASK any of these officers for their "MISSION
ORDER", which is written by their supervisor. If they apprehend you for a
violation that is not in their MISSION ORDER FOR THE DAY, you can REPORT
THEM and they will receive DICIPLINARY ACTION.
TO REPORT CASES of selective apprehension or abuses by MMDA officers, you
may report these by calling the MMDA hotline (136) or call the METRO BASE
at 0920-9389861 or 0920-9389875 and ask for an Inspectorate.
