When it comes to traffic, the first thing that comes to mind is the MMDA.
00:05
Did you know that the MMDA's job is not just about fixing traffic?
00:10
Behind their efforts to maintain our roads and programs in fixing traffic
00:15
is also part of their goal of teaching and giving knowledge
00:19
for a safer and better travel for every Filipino.
00:23
And the first thing that comes to mind when it comes to ensuring that this goal is followed
00:27
is their Traffic Education Division under the Traffic Discipline Office.
00:32
That's why this morning, we have with us
00:34
Atty. Victor Maria D. Nunez, Director III of the MMDA TDO.
00:39
Sir, good morning.
00:40
Good morning, Victor.
00:41
Good morning, and good morning to all of our viewers.
00:44
Alright, Atty. Vic, tell us about your office.
00:46
What is the mandate of your office?
00:48
Well, as part of the Traffic Discipline Office of the MMDA,
00:53
one of the mandates of the MMDA is the Traffic Management,
00:58
in which one of the components here is Traffic Education.
01:02
So, we have a Traffic Engineering Center, Traffic Enforcement,
01:06
Road Emergency Response, and the fourth is the Traffic Education,
01:11
which is a very vital component of Traffic Management.
01:15
Because in this division, the MMDA Traffic Education Division,
01:21
they create programs and modules or training programs
01:31
to ensure that our traffic enforcers are aware.
01:37
We also lecture to different LGUs and motorists who undergo training
01:44
to make sure that everyone on our roads is safe.
01:49
Traffic Education is very important because no matter how careful you are
01:53
in driving or on the road, if you meet someone who is not well-informed,
01:59
they will be disgraced.
02:01
Sir, you mentioned traffic enforcers.
02:05
How do you help enforcers to be more effective in their duties?
02:11
Well, one part is we have these laterized training modules
02:17
wherein, for example, if you are a new applicant to the MMDA,
02:23
we have a 15-day basic traffic rules and safety seminar for all new applicants.
02:33
For officers and traffic enforcers, we have a 20-day traffic management seminar.
02:41
So, it's in-house in the MMDA.
02:43
And for motorists who have violated three or more traffic violations,
02:51
it is mandatory for them to have a training seminar, orientation seminar,
02:59
half-day, semi-day, before they lift their suspension of their driver's license.
03:06
So, this is a very important component.
03:09
To give discipline, our motorists should learn the basic road courtesy and discipline,
03:16
which is very important on the road.
03:18
Okay, so there are lectures and seminars both for drivers and for enforcers.
03:23
You mentioned that before you put them on the road,
03:26
there is a 15-day training for new applicants.
03:29
So, it means that they are equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to be an enforcer.
03:35
But we can't avoid it, sir.
03:37
There are those who complain, right?
03:39
There are those who say,
03:41
there are those who are tired of being an enforcer.
03:43
No, no.
03:44
There are some who even bribe enforcers.
03:46
For those who will give disciplinary actions or those who will complain,
03:51
do we also have trainings or refresher for them?
03:55
Yes, sir.
03:56
For the erring officers, we also have a program that is like a moral recovery training.
04:05
Usually, we coordinate.
04:08
The last time, we had a coordination in a seminary school.
04:14
Those who taught us from the seminary conducted a moral recovery training.
04:23
So, it is important that not only do we know the basic traffic rules,
04:28
but we are ready morally to fight all the temptations on the road.
04:34
As you know, it's really two-way.
04:36
It's not just the enforcer, even the drivers.
04:38
Sometimes, the motorists are the first to initiate.
04:41
Yes.
04:42
So, if you are equipped morally,
04:46
and you give integrity as a public servant,
04:51
you should fight it.
04:53
Instead of entertaining the bribes,
04:57
you should complain and answer the wrongdoings on the road.
05:04
It goes both ways.
05:05
Yes.
05:06
There are videos on the cellphones.
05:08
Sometimes, it doesn't make sense.
05:09
But, sir, how can they avail of your trainings and seminars?
05:13
Well, our agency, MMDA PUBUKAS,
05:17
also writes to us.
05:19
Even outside Metro Manila,
05:22
there are LGUs who request trainings from their local traffic enforcers.
05:29
So, MMDA goes to LGUs,
05:34
and we prepare seminars.
05:36
Our job is to write to our chairman,
05:42
to request for this road safety or traffic management seminar
05:48
for their local traffic enforcers.
05:51
There are also bus companies
05:53
who request to train or give seminars to their bus drivers.
05:59
There are also construction firms
06:02
because they are mandated that if there are roadworks,
06:06
they should have flagmen or traffic marshals
06:09
who also need to undergo training in MMDA
06:13
so that they know what to do if there are roadworks or construction,
06:16
especially in major thoroughfares.
06:18
So, these seminars and trainings are free?
06:21
Yes, it's free.
06:22
So, you just need to write to MMDA.
06:25
So, you have already visited a lot of LGUs?
06:28
All over the Philippines.
06:29
And we even conducted our traffic engineering.
06:33
They conduct traffic surveys in different places in the Philippines.
06:38
Lastly, what is your opinion on the suggestions
06:41
to include basic traffic rules in the curriculum?
06:49
Well, we have been discussing for a long time
06:52
that it should be included in the curriculum,
06:56
the road courtesy, road rules, and safety,
07:03
especially for children.
07:05
That's why in MMDA, we have a road children's safety park in Manila
07:10
wherein a lot of children go there.
07:13
They experience that we have miniature footbridge,
07:17
traffic lights, pedestrians,
07:19
and the children are being taught proper road discipline,
07:23
road courtesy at an early age.
07:25
So, it's very important for our children to be exposed
07:29
to the right courtesy and discipline on the road.
07:32
Well, thank you very much, Atty. Vic Nunez,
07:34
for visiting us here in Rise and Shine Philippines.
07:37
Your program is very good
07:39
to help our enforcers, our LGUs,
07:43
and even those who drive on our roads.
07:47
Thank you very much, Atty.
07:49
Good morning to all of you.
