OFFICIAL STATEMENT
LTO TAGUM DISTRICT

ON THE VIRAL VIDEO QUESTIONING THE LOCATION OF A LAW ENFORCEMENT OPERATION

The Land Transportation Office (LTO) Tagum District Office takes note of the viral video posted by Ms. Elizabeth C. Pia, a concern citizen, questioning the location of a recent law enforcement operation conducted along Pioneer Avenue (Main Road), Tagum City.

We wish to clarify that the subject activity was a LEGITIMATE, AUTHORIZED, AND PROPERLY COORDINATED JOINT NIGHT LAW ENFORCEMENT OPERATION, conducted at approximately 6:00 P.M., pursuant to the implementation of Republic Act No. 4136, the Memorandum Circular No. MVL-2026-5314 on the Revised Guidelines on Improvised/Duplicate Plates, and existing LTO laws, rules, regulations, and enforcement directives.

The operation was JOINTLY CONDUCTED by the LTO Tagum District Law Enforcement Team, the Traffic Management Unit (TMU) of the City Government of Tagum, and the Tagum City Police Station, Philippine National Police (PNP), together with the duly deputized enforcers of LTO Region XI. The operation was conducted in a well-lighted area, with appropriate roadside signages and visible indications of an ongoing law enforcement activity, to ensure the safety and awareness of motorists and other road users.

The choice of Pioneer Avenue (Main Road) in Tagum City, as the enforcement area was strategic and operationally justified, taking into consideration the movement and volume of motorists and the need for a visible enforcement presence along a major roadway. Enforcement operations are necessarily conducted at strategic locations where they can effectively deter traffic violations and promote compliance with existing traffic laws and regulations.

The operation specifically monitored and addressed various traffic violations, including defective or unnecessary lights, driving under the influence of alcohol, reckless driving, failure to wear the prescribed motorcycle helmet, Not Wearing Seatbelt, unregistered or expired motor vehicle registration, and driving without a valid driver's license, among other violations under existing laws and regulations.

Most importantly, the operation was conducted LAWFULLY, PROFESSIONALLY, AND ABOVE BOARD, with the paramount objective of protecting motorists, passengers, pedestrians, and the general public from preventable road crashes and traffic-related risks.

The LTO Tagum City District Office respects the public's right to raise questions, express concerns, and seek clarification regarding government operations. At the same time, we encourage the public to consider the complete circumstances and official context of an enforcement activity before drawing conclusions based solely on a viral video or an isolated portion of an enforcement operation.

The LTO remains steadfast in its mandate to enforce the law fairly, strengthen inter-agency cooperation, promote road discipline, and protect lives on our roads.

TAGUM CITY, DAVAO DEL NORTE — A strong commitment to responsive, accessible, and service-oriented government was highlighted as Hon. De Carlo “Oyo” L. Uy Oyo Uy , Congressman of the First Congressional District of Davao del Norte, personally visited the LTO Tagum City District Office to inspect its existing building and assess the proposed major reconstruction of the facility.

The visit underscores the importance of providing the public with a government facility that is safe, functional, modern, comfortable, and responsive to the growing volume of clients being served by the LTO R-XI Tagum District Office—particularly the constituents of the First Congressional District of Davao del Norte.

The planned reconstruction was initiated by OIC District Head Ms. Karen Mae D. Torollo as part of the continuing effort to complement the Service Excellence Delivery commitment of LTO XI Regional Director Atty. Ernesto Raphael V. Robillo—ensuring that excellent public service is matched by facilities worthy of the Filipino people.

During his visit, Congressman Uy also personally renewed his Driver’s License and took the opportunity to experience firsthand the services being rendered by the dedicated personnel of LTO Tagum District Office. He expressed appreciation for the professionalism, commitment, and assistance extended by the LTO team to its clients.

Recognizing the increasing influx of motorists and clients, Congressman Uy emphasized the necessity of transforming the existing facility into a modern, state-of-the-art LTO building that conforms to present-day standards of government service delivery.

More than infrastructure, the proposed project is envisioned to create a better client experience—providing greater comfort, convenience, safety, efficiency, and dignity to every Filipino who enters the LTO Tagum City District Office.

Congressman Uy likewise expressed his commitment to helping ensure that this valuable infrastructure project will be realized at the soonest possible time, demonstrating a shared vision between national government partners and local stakeholders to bring better public services closer to the people.

The engagement further strengthens the continuing partnership between LTO XI and the Office of the First Congressional District of Davao del Norte, complementing the Memorandum of Understanding under the PASADA Project — A Road Safety Advocacy Partnership, which seeks to advance road safety, responsible mobility, and accessible government services throughout the district.

The LTO XI family deeply appreciates the personal support and commitment of Congressman De Carlo “Oyo” L. Uy. Together, we move forward toward a modern LTO facility, a better client experience, and a stronger culture of service excellence.

“A modern government facility is more than concrete and steel—it is a commitment that every Filipino deserves a safe, comfortable, dignified, and excellent public service experience.”
