AMENDMENT TO MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 014-00 AND MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 014-A-00

National Administrative Register [ LTFRB MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 2000-016, July 25, 2000 ]



To make compliance with Memorandum Circular No. 2000-014 and
Memorandum Circular No. 2000-014-A less cumbersome and taking into
consideration the suggestions from various transport group, Memorandum
Circular Nos. 2000-014 and 2000-014-A are hereby  amended  to read as
follows:

Operators of public utility vehicles are required to place on both sides of their units, the following markings:

1.      LTFRB Case No. (except PUBs in which case the LTFRB Case
No. may be painted in that place where their capacity markings are
currently painted);

2.      Name of  Operator (including Trade Name if any);

3.      Type of Service (required for AUVs; optional for the rest);

4.      Route/Area of Operation (only for PUJs, Filcabs and other AUV services with fixed routes);

5.      License Plate No.

The size requirement for markings is no longer required, it is enough that the markings are readable for identification.

Exempted from the implementation of this Memorandum Circular are
operators of Rent-A-Car Service on the condition that their clientele
drive the vehicles  themselves.

Any operator found to have violated this Memorandum Circular shall
pay to the Board the fine of FIVE THOUSAND (P5,000.00) PESOS per unit.
Habitual violation thereof, shall mean suspension of the operator’s
Certificate of Public Convenience after due process by the Board. To
give ample time for the operators to comply with this Memorandum
Circular, payment of penalty shall take effect on September 28, 2000.

This Memorandum Circular repeals all existing circulars inconsistent thereto.

Adopted: 25 July 2000
