00:00 The plan of the MMDA is to double the fine against Jay Walking
00:04 so that the passengers who did not pass the right crossing can be brought.
00:09 This is what Karen Villanda reported.
00:11 Finally, on camera, right next to the car,
00:17 the man who was not allowed to cross,
00:18 was in a car and even over-stepped the barrier,
00:23 is the man in EDSA Guadalupe just to ride the EDSA busway.
00:28 But aside from the passengers,
00:30 the vendors admitted that they also often cross here
00:33 and no longer use the footbridge.
00:35 I'm just used to it.
00:37 To what?
00:38 To crossing there.
00:39 In EDSA?
00:40 Yes.
00:41 So, are you not afraid of the speed of the cars?
00:43 Not really.
00:44 Why don't you want to use the footbridge?
00:46 It's far.
00:48 And?
00:50 It's higher than the MRT.
00:51 Because of the increasing number of passengers in EDSA,
00:54 they are continuously returning home due to the disgrace.
00:56 Recently, a woman was in the busway due to a wrong crossing.
01:02 That's why Metro Manila Development Authority plans
01:05 to double the fine for jaywalking
01:07 so that Filipinos will be more disciplined.
01:10 We want to conduct consultations
01:13 before we raise the penalty.
01:16 For now, it's 500.
01:18 We are looking at 1,000.
01:21 Just double it.
01:23 We will also hold a seminar
01:28 so that they can think more.
01:32 More than the monetary penalty.
01:35 But if MMDA and DILG clarify,
01:38 the higher fine will be given to the main roads
01:41 like C5 and EDSA
01:43 where there is a high volume of vehicles.
01:46 I pass through there.
01:47 I notice that, especially in Guadalupe,
01:50 there are many crossings.
01:53 It's dangerous.
01:54 The vehicles there are fast.
01:56 I am thankful that MMDA intervened.
01:59 Maybe more education.
02:01 But maybe we should raise the fine
02:04 so that it can be understood by people.
02:07 Only on these two, EDSA and C5.
02:10 Because it's very dangerous.
02:12 The next MMC will discuss
02:15 the decision to raise the higher fine.
02:18 But for now, MMDA is taking the roads
02:21 in the center islands
02:23 of Metro Manila
02:25 so that pedestrians can't cross.
02:28 Karen Villanda for the nation.
