A 90-day suspension was imposed upon the licenses of two drivers for engaging in road rage along Epifanio delos Santos Avenue (Edsa) in Ortigas, the Land Transportation Office (LTO) said on Thursday.
In a video circulating on social media, a Toyota Innova and a Toyota Wigo were seen moving closely next to each other in the middle of the traffic, seemingly mirroring each other’s movements before the Wigo suddenly cut into the Innova’s lane. The video also showed the Wigo moving together with the Innova when it tried switching lanes, and the Wigo stopped in the middle of Edsa, causing the Innova to also halt.
After this, the passenger on the Wigo was also seen raising the middle finger towards the Innova.
The driver of the Innova, Marvin Cacnio, and the driver of the Wigo, Sheena Balagbagan, were both issued show-cause orders to appear before the LTO Intelligence and Investigation Office to explain why they must not be held liable for reckless driving and obstruction.
Additionally, the two must also comment on why their driver’s licenses must not be revoked for being improper persons to operate a motor vehicle, the orders read.
