Transport groups want drug tests back

VARIOUS transport organizations on Friday      raised their objection over the  implementation of a provision in the Republic Act (RA) 10856 or the “Anti-Drunk and Drugged Driving Act” which threw out the mandatory drug test for driver’s license applicants; they vowed to seek the intervention of the Supreme Court.

The Motorcycle Philippines Federation (MPF), the Alliance of Concerned Transport Operators (ACTO) and Pasang Masda will be filling a petition before the High Tribunal for a temporary restraining order against the newly enacted law authored by Sen. Vicente Sotto 3rd.
