The LTFRB official said InDrive and Maxim use both motorcycles and cars and could be finding their way into the food delivery service. But he did not provide the exact number of vehicles under InDrive or Maxim. Guadiz said the LTFRB is already coordinating with the Department of Information and Communications Technology to ban these two ride-hailing apps in the country and stressed that public safety comes first, explaining that the regulator cannot monitor unauthorized riding firms as “it puts the rider in a bigger risk.”
He noted that legitimate TNVS companies have insurance in case of accidents, even vouching that legal ride-hailing firms employ trained drivers.“Paki-usap nalang po sa mga kababayan natin who are using this app, you better cease and desist. One of these days, ang sasakay po sa inyo would be [an] LTFRB agent or a [Highway Patrol Group] agent,” Guadiz cautioned.
