    MANILA - Two party-list representatives filed a bill that seeks to reward citizens who apprehend drivers or operators of smoke-belching vehicles.

    A TEACHER party-list Reps. Mariano Piamonte, Jr. and Julieta Cortuna authored House Bill 4932, which seeks to tap the support of ordinary citizens in going after smoke belching vehicles.

    "With too many laws bound to be implemented, it is easy for those concerned to say that it is hard for them to implement all laws effectively, and indeed it is," Piamonte said.

    "You still can see smoke belching vehicles running around the streets of Metro Manila and elsewhere. These scenarios can breed some suspicion that authorities are lax in enforcing the law."

    Under the bill, any individual who spots a vehicle on the road emitting black smoke is given the authority to apprehend its driver or operator.

    The arresting individual shall bring the apprehended/arrested driver and vehicle to a nearby police station. The owner of the vehicle shall be booked for violation of the Clean Air Act.

    The vehicle, meanwhile, shall be temporarily impounded.

    The bill provides a reward of P10,000 to the arresting individual for every legitimate apprehension of smoke belching vehicle. The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) shall determine the legitimacy of such apprehension.

    The DENR shall provide the reward, free of tax, to the apprehending individual.

    This is a nice bill to be passed. Although, those owning diesel SUVs and Pickups are prone to emit black smoke when throttled hard.

    So the government is admitting it can't do its job and is passing it on to its citizens now? Will they now allow citizens to carry guns to be able to make such arrests? Who in heaven or hell is sane to do such a suicidal act? Arrest the driver of a jeepney, who everyone knows all of them carry a steel pipe with them all the time, who regularly run red lights and pick up passengers wherever they like? Arrest a bus driver who is probably high on shabu? Arrest a truck driver who has absolutely no respect for traffic enforcers? What more kung civilian ang aaresto sa kanila? And worst of all, try to arrest an suv owner? Tutok mo na lang baril sa ulo mo at ikaw na kumalabit ng gatilyo!

    Paki-recall nga yang 2 gag0ng congressmen na yan!

    These 2 Morons are Teacher party list representatives. Bakit sila ang nag initiate ng bill? Wala bang problem ang mga guro at school system ng bansang Pilipinas at pati smoke belching e pinapaki-alaman? Ano ginagawa nung party list rep ng mga driver? Ang sagot ay Syempre, they protect the interest of the tsuper ng taxi and jeepneys at yan ay i-tolerate ang lahat ng violations ng mga walang disiplinang drivers.
    E simpleng dress code di ma implement! Ano ba naman yan?!

    Tama yung isang nag comment, sinong Tanga ang manghuhuli at magdadala ng mga iyan sa proper authorities. Unless suicidal ka na. O kaya, nasa payroll ka ng mga pulis. Kukuha sila ng mga siga at pusakal sa kanto tapos pag dinala na sa Presinto e "pag-uusapan" na lang yung smoke belching violation mo. At the end of the day, "party-han" na ang mangyayari na me kasamang malamig na San Miguel Beer.hehe

    Masyado ng maraming batas sa Pilipinas and all thats needed are people in authority to implement them.

    I believe that Pilipinos are very good entrepreneurs. They see opportunity when opportunity shows itself....... and that is, nakakakita ng pagkakataon mangurakot. Creating a new law will only open up more opportunities for corruption.

    Dito magaling ang mga Pilipino and dito nakakatulong in a way ang mga pulitiko. Make more laws para mas maraming pagkakataon para kumita ang mga mandurugas na Pilipino!

    too harsh, laki ng problema mo dude, at least their passing a law that gives incentives

    yes the government can't do it all, daming kupal na kagaya ninyo na nagmamagaling.

    tanga - manghuhuli- okay dude pag na witness ko may sumampal sa nanay mo anak o asawa mo(stranger in a public place) di ko pipigilan di ako tatawag ng pulis

    syempre kung si amapatuan ang nag smoke belching EH DI Ivideo hanggang magreat ang national government

    CHANGE STARTS FROM US. DAMI DITO PURO ARM CHAIR GENERAL DAKDAK NG DAKDAK LANG SA SOCIAL MEDIA.

    kaya tumatapang mga criminal tulad sa edsa heist gaya sa mga duwag na katulad mo, kaya lalong nagiging abusado si knife wielding taxi driver sa pag dridrive ay dahil sa tulad niyo.- imagine kung walang nag video at nagreact sa mga viral video na yung imagine kung walang concern citizen

    Iba naman ang pagvideo o pag picture ng krimen vs papasok ka sa eksena ng krimen. Kahit bata pwedeng pwede magvideo at magpost e. Pero ikaw ba may krimen mag-aala-superman ka? Tatawag ka lang ng police. E dito arrest talaga e

    Hmmmnnn...

    pwede siguro:
    1. kunan mo ng video 'yung smoke beching vehicle
    2. itawag mo sa "hotline" nila para maaresto 'yung driver.
    3. kapag nahuli na, punta ka sa presinto then ipakita mo 'yung video sa mga pulis.
    4. bigyan mo sila ng kopya ng video, saka mo kunin 'yung reward... kaliwaan.
    5. bahala na sila sa nahuling driver.

    pero kung ako pa ang aaresto sa kanila, dala ako ng baril at posas (bibili muna ako).
    mabuti nang may kargada kasi siguradong meron din sila.

    malamang sa hindi, hindi alam nitong mga reps na ito kung anong klase
    ng hayufs ang naglipana sa kalsada... hindi ganoon kadali ang gusto nilang mangyari.
