Motorcycle rider hits SAICT enforcer on EDSA busway
A motorcycle rider, identified as "Dong", is facing multiple charges after injuring a DOTr-SAICT enforcer and a cyclist while illegally using the EDSA busway.
Authorities attempted to stop the rider along Ortigas Avenue but he sped off, striking the enforcer and then a male cyclist in the bike lane.
Dong claimed he was late for work and that his brakes failed, leading to the incident.
He stated, "When I was overtaking on the bus lane, they saw me... When I hit the brakes, it didn't go through. I was surprised and hit the gas," and added, "It was not my intention."
The 56-year-old cyclist sustained a minor wound, while the female enforcer was unharmed.
