Beginning Friday, July 10, the government will allow back-riding in motorcycles but only for couples, Malacañang said.

I HAVE YOUR BACK This ‘couple’ on a motorcycle at the intersection of Abad Santos Avenue corner Tayuman Street in Manila is a day early in implementing backriding, which the government allowed starting on July 10, 2020. Couples or unmarried individuals will have to provide authorities with IDs having the same address to be allowed to ride together. Backriding is part of the easing of restrictions in areas under general community quarantine. PHOTO BY MIKE ALQUINTO
