they are popularly known as the sidecar. but this one is different from the more common pedicab. it doesn't have pedals so you can't exactly call it a pedicab. this is different. this breed has a motor making it a motorized vehicle.
now, unless i am mistaken, all motorized vehicles should be registered with the land tranportation office (lto). properly registered vehicles would then be issued the appropriate vehicle plate number.
these sidecars have a motor installed and they are no plate numbers from the lto indicating that they are not registered. why is that, lto? these things are all over the streets dodging and weaving and doing anything they please. as far as i can remember they popped up on the streets a couple of years ago as a way of transporting vegetables around neighborhoods. and now the metro streets are peppered with them.
what irritates me is that the lto is doing absolutely nothing to regulate these sidecars. were they tested for safety? do the 'drivers' of these things licensed? you can really put blame on the local police (or the mmda) because the lto hasn't said anything regarding sidecars. maybe the lto officers are too ensconced in their air-conditioned offices or their heavily tinted, air-conditioned vehicles to notice or care.
dudes, we are not stupid. stop trying to make us look like we are.
somebody in government is not doing their job (typical). and they're getting paid for it (shameful, really). you'll know its them because they are always the first to deny it.
if the intelligent powers that be are reading this, replace that guy in lto with one that can do the job properly.
