00:00 It is said that it is very careful for a motorcycle rider to ride a motorcycle, especially if there is a passenger.

00:05 But the private vehicles that are allowed to enter the motorcycle lane are pernicious to him.

00:12 They almost want to go through there because it is a very dangerous lane.

00:16 That is the number one problem because we can run fast because we know that the four-wheels will not enter that lane.

00:23 The drivers are also concerned about one problem.

00:28 Yes, it will not disappear, especially when there is traffic.

00:32 Four-wheel drivers are very careful because they will not enter that lane.

00:35 We are the only ones on the side.

00:37 Instead of getting angry and chasing them, they just let them pass.

00:41 To prevent such scenes that could be a threat to the safety of riders,

00:47 a motorcycle riding academy was launched by the MMDA in Pasig City.

00:52 According to the MMDA, 20 out of 175,000 motorcycles are used every day.

00:58 This is the number of road incidents in EDSA.

01:01 They call it motorcycle riders.

01:04 It is not that there is no discipline, but it is just that there is a lack of knowledge and education.

01:09 The MMDA allocates a two-day safety course, 100 riders per batch.

01:15 It is free, even for beginners or those who are good at motorcycle riding,

01:20 as long as they are 17 years old and above.

01:23 It is taught from the basic traffic rules and even the anger management on the road.

01:28 You really need to know that.

01:30 The first thing that causes an accident is the simplicity.

01:34 That is what I want to address, to change the mindset of our motorcycle riders

01:40 along with the curriculum that we will teach,

01:43 to control emotions on the road, to give and to fight on the road.

01:50 But for now, the program is still being prepared,

01:53 so it is available to MMDA employees and ride-hailing services.

01:58 It is open to the public until mid-October.

02:02 What is needed is to answer the online enrollment form,

02:06 where the requirements are already met.

02:09 It will also happen to bring your own helmet, gloves and rain gear

02:14 while the motorcycles are already provided.

02:17 The participants will receive a Certificate of Completion and a badge in the course and skills test.

02:22 Not only that, they will also be given the priority to get a job in ride-hailing services.

02:30 We are also leading the test to accredit our motorcycle riding academy

02:38 and also to use it to get a license.

02:40 According to MMDA Acting Chairman, Romando Artes,

02:44 there is also a plan to build a similar facility in Batangas and Oriental Mindoro.
