Inspection centers not cure-all to road accidents –Recto

Senate President Pro Tempore Ralph G. Recto on Wednesday shot down claims that Private Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers are the magic pill that would stop all road mishaps.It is “wrong and misleading” to attribute all road accidents to poorly maintained vehicles, Recto stressed.

Recto issued the statement after attending yesterday a hybrid public hearing by the Senate public services committee chaired by Senator Grace Poe on the PMVICs and other transportation-related issues. Recto pointed out that “a well-tuned car driven by someone with a high IQ who aced the driver’s test can still meet an accident if he sleeps on the wheel, or intentionally disregards a traffic light or sign.’’
