SUV with fake '7' plate tries to run over traffic enforcer on EDSA Busway

On Sunday evening, an unidentified white sports utility vehicle (SUV) with fake protocol plate number '7' attempted to run over a traffic enforcer from the Department of Transportation's Special Action and Intelligence Committee after being caught driving inside the EDSA Busway lane in Guadalupe Station.

Senate President Francis Escudero urged the owner of the SUV bearing license plate No. 7 to come forward, emphasizing that such behavior is unacceptable and noting that if the driver is a senator, they should take responsibility for their actions.

According to Senator Raffy Tulfo, the passenger of the SUV was going to a resort in Quezon City after landing at Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3. The security personnel accompanying the passenger is a former member of the Armed Forces of the Philippines.

The Land Transportation Office confirmed that the vehicle used a fake '7' protocol plate and assured the public that a Show Cause Order will be issued to identify the registered owner and driver, while Tulfo urged the SUV owner to surrender and face possible sanctions.

Tulfo emphasized the importance of identifying who owns the plate and why they possess it, adding that both the vehicle's driver and owner should face legal consequences if found guilty.
