Pacquiao to his driver caught in EDSA Busway: 'Wag ka na sumama sa amin'
A van and an SUV, falsely claiming to be part of Manny Pacquiao's security detail, were caught using the EDSA busway with unauthorized blinkers and sirens.
The driver of one vehicle initially attempted to flee but returned after former Senator Manny Pacquiao ordered his staff to go back and accept the traffic violations.
Pacquiao stated that he rebuked his staff members for their actions, emphasizing that it was wrong and that they should not have tried to evade law enforcers.
Pacquiao has since relieved the service driver involved in the incident and stated he does not tolerate such behavior.
Both vehicles were issued traffic violation tickets by the DOTr-SAICT for disregarding traffic signs and illegal use of blinkers.
The DOTr-SAICT is currently investigating the incident.
