IN line with the instruction of President Ferdinand \u201cBongbong\u201d R. Marcos, Jr. to run after errant motorists who compromise road safety, the Land Transportation Office (LTO) under the guidance of Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon has penalized a female motovlogger in viral road rage incident in Zambales.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n According to LTO chief, Assistant Secretary Vigor D. Mendoza II, Yanna Motovlog was fined P5,000 for using a motorcycle without side mirrors and another P2,000 for reckless driving.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Yanna\u2019s driver\u2019s license was also suspended until such time that she complied with the order of the LTO to surrender the motorcycle she used during the viral road rage incident, which she admitted to be not hers.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n In a seven-page decision, the LTO said the offenses committed by Yanna Motovlog were caught in the viral video she herself uploaded in her social media account, particularly the dangerous maneuvers she did while overtaking a pick up as well as the absence of side mirrors on the motorcycle she was using.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The video, along with her letter of apology over the incident and the affidavit submitted by the pick-up driver, became the solid pieces of evidence that led to the decision finding her guilty over the incident.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Yanna Motovlog was charged with Reckless Driving (Sec. 48 of R.A. 4136), operating a motor vehicle without side mirrors, and motor vehicle without attached number plates (Sec. 18 of R.A. 4136).<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n According to the decision, Yanna was found guilty on the first two offenses but was absolved in the third case since she is not the registered owner of the motorcycle.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The decision also castigated Yanna for her refusal to appear in the investigation and failure to surrender the motorcycle even if she was ordered to do so.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cThis noncompliance not only violates the instructions mandated by this Office but also demonstrates outright disrespect for established legal procedures and regulatory <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cBy refusing to present both the registered owner and the motorcycle for inspection, the concerned party has obstructed investigative proceedings, delayed efforts to establish responsibility, and undermined the integrity of enforcement measures,\u201d it added.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Mendoza earlier stressed that as a social media personality, Yanna Motovlog has the responsibility to her followers to lead by example.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cWhile she later expressed remorse and pledged cooperation, her initial refusal to delete the video demonstrates a disregard for the seriousness of her actions. By keeping the content accessible, she inadvertently reinforced a culture of reckless riding rather than emphasizing accountability,\u201d the decision read.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Mendoza said the decision also suspended the license plate of the motorcycle registered under the name of the vlogger and tasked law enforcers to confiscate it.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The motorcycle used by Yanna Motovlog during the incident was also placed on alarm until such time that it was turned over to the LTO.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n All law enforcement officers were directed to apprehend Yanna Motovlog if in case she is found driving on public roads until such time that the suspension on her driver\u2019s license is lifted.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" IN line with the instruction of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” R.
