The Land Transportation Office (LTO) has paved the way in which for brand-new bikes with engine displacement of lower than 200 cubic centimeters (cc) to get a three-year registration, which the company stated will profit some 2 million models.
In an announcement launched Sunday, the LTO stated Memorandum Circular JMT-2023-2395 would increase the three-year registration validity, as the present legal guidelines solely present this to bikes with not less than 201cc.
“Hindi natin nakikitang magkakaroon ng problema sa roadworthiness ang mga motorsiklong may tatlong-taong rehistro dahil ang mga ito naman ay bagong sasakyan,” LTO Chief Jose Arturo “Jay Art” Tugade stated.
“Kami sa LTO ay naniniwalang ang hakbang na ito’y makatutulong sa maraming drayber na nagpapa-rehistro ng bagong motorsiklo para magamit sa kanilang hanapbuhay o trabaho,” he added.
(We don’t see any issues with the roadworthiness of bikes with three years of registry as a result of these are new autos.
We in LTO consider that this can assist many drivers in registering their new bikes for them to make use of of their livelihood or work.)
Tugade stated the brand new memorandum round is in step with the company’s efforts to hurry up processes and ease the company’s transactions with the general public.
“Magpapatuloy po ang pag-aaral sa mga umiiral na polisiya at panuntunan. Kung kailangan po itong baguhin tungo sa ikagaganda ng sistema ay handa po namin itong gawin,” he stated.
(We will proceed to check the prevailing insurance policies and laws within the company’s transactions. We are ready to implement any adjustments if wanted for the development of the system.)
Under its mandate, the LTO inspects and registers motor autos, points licenses and permits, enforces land transportation guidelines and laws, adjudicates visitors circumstances, and collects revenues for the federal government. —LBG, GMA Integrated News
