00:09The jeep counter-flowed to the concrete barriers.

00:13According to the police, the jeep had no brakes.

00:15The jeep was hit by seven vehicles before it was hit by a hoolicam.

00:20Ten people were injured.

00:22The driver of the Antipolo Component City Police Station has been detained

00:25and pleaded not guilty.

00:31A hoolicam that counter-flowed along the Sumulong Highway in Antipolo

00:35was hit by a passenger jeep.

00:37Almost all vehicles and motorcycles in the area were hit by the jeep

00:41before it hit the concrete barriers.

00:43According to the driver, the jeep had no brakes.

00:46For more details, we will interview Police Lieutenant Colonel Ryan Manondo,

00:51Acting Chief of Police Antipolo Component City Police Station.

00:54Good evening to you, sir.

00:57Yes, good evening to all the viewers of Dapat Alam Mo.

01:01Yes, sir Manondo.

01:03Let's clarify in your investigation,

01:05did the jeep lose its brakes before it hit the concrete barriers

01:10or did it counter-flow first before it lost its brakes?

01:14In our investigation, you noticed it right away when it was coming down from here.

01:21It was coming down and you noticed that it lost its brakes.

01:24It was hit by 6 motorcycles for that particular time before it counter-flowed.

01:30It realized that there was traffic on the right side of the road

01:35where it was more determined to counter-flow

01:38because the left side of the road is a bit wide.

01:41That's why it counter-flowed.

01:43Sir, what...

01:44It noticed that the vehicle was not stopping

01:48and it was already hit by the concrete barriers of the DPWH.

01:52Sir, what cases can the driver face?

01:56Honestly sir, as of now, all the victims of the driver have settled.

02:04They have been arraigned.

02:06They have talked and their cases have been notarized.

02:11There will be no more complaints against this driver

02:16other than the issue of violation of destruction of public property, which is ticket only.

02:27Sir, for our viewers, are there any chances that the vehicles can counter-flow?

02:33When is that allowed?

02:37Actually, there is none.

02:39First of all, accidents can really cause if we counter-flow.

02:44There are a lot of rules that we always keep right.

02:48What the driver might have done is that he might have done more damage

02:54if he didn't counter-flow.

02:56He will continue to stay on the other side of the road.

02:59Of course, sir.

03:01If that's the case, you know, you will get more complaints.

03:04You will avoid it.

03:05You will really avoid it, right sir?

03:06Sir, for the violators, what is the possible punishment?

03:11First of all, it depends on the damage.

03:14First of all, if they were able to commit suicide because of that recklessness.

03:21Reckless imprudence resulting to homicide if they were able to commit suicide.

03:25Meanwhile, in this case, reckless imprudence resulting to physical injury.

03:32There are multiple physical injuries.

03:34What is certain is the damage to property.

03:38Chief, is there a case of driving a public utility vehicle that is not in condition?

03:44Is there a case like that?

03:47There is none.

03:48It's just the recklessness.

03:50Including the recklessness.

03:51Yes, sir.

03:52The recklessness that he committed is a bit generic.

03:56Colonel Manong Doy, motorists who counter-flow because of traffic,

04:01is that okay or not?

04:03Actually, it's definitely a violation of traffic rules.

04:06Everyone will counter-flow except for extreme emergencies like ambulances.

04:12Firefighters.

04:13Yes, firefighters.

04:15That is the generally accepted point because of emergency or exigency of service.

04:21Yes, yes.

04:22Chief Manong Doy, what are your reminders to our motorists,

04:25to those who are driving in the middle of the road that could be affected by this incident?

04:30Yes, sir.

04:31In general, it's not just because of the old jeep.

04:37All of these, we should check our vehicles before we use them.

04:43Especially if they are old or have initial symptoms.

04:50Yes.

04:51We can hear someone knocking.

04:53So, we should be careful because we should not risk our safety

04:58or the safety of our loved ones and other people.

05:02Yes.

05:03Colonel, one question.

05:04Personal opinion.

05:05Should we modernize the old jeep or should we leave it as it is?

05:12This is a political issue.

05:14I believe there are studies about this.

05:17Times are changing to change.

05:20Thank you very much, Lieutenant Colonel Ryan Manong Doy,

05:25Acting Chief of Police Antipolo Component City Police Station.
