Is the LTO's new poliicy "Operators/car owners have no liability"?
When a driver gets into a vehicular accident, the operator of the vehicle or the car owner is partly held accountable, and is reponsible for damages and incurs punishment even if they are not aware that the vehicle was in an accident.
Since only the driver was aptly penalized in this matter, does it mean that LTO is now enforcing a policy where car owners or operators(especially public servants) have little to no liability?
Even if we assume that the good mr Torre did not authorize his driver to use the bus lane, and was not aware that the vehicle plates have been switiched, isn't he still liable as the owner of the vehicle/s in question? Please correct me if I'm wronng as I am just a simple guy trying to make sense of all this🤷 #pinoy #philippines #ph
