LTO permanently revokes driver's license of motorist in viral road rage incident

The Land Transportation Office (LTO) has permanently revoked the driver's license of a motorist involved in a viral road rage incident in Antipolo City.

The incident involved a white pickup truck driver who allegedly slapped a man pushing a push cart after the cart reportedly grazed the vehicle, with the victim's young daughter present.

The driver admitted to being angry during the incident, where he was seen cursing at the victim and hitting him.

The LTO found probable cause for revocation after the driver presented himself before the agency.

LTO chief Markus Lacanilao emphasized that the agency will not tolerate any form of violence and irresponsible behavior on the road.

The driver can still appeal the revocation, subject to the LTO Intelligence and Investigation Division.

The LTO also placed the driver's Toyota Hilux under alarm.
