6 cops ticketed in surprise car check at PNP HQ
Six police officers were given citation tickets for various traffic violations after the Philippine National Police conducted a surprise inspection of vehicles inside its main headquarters in Quezon City.
In a press briefing on Thursday, the PNP Highway Patrol Group (HPG) which led the surprise check at Camp Crame, said that over 300 vehicles and more than 500 motorcycles were inspected.
The most common violations were failure to present the official receipt (OR) or certificate of registration (CR) for their vehicles and delinquent registrations.
As for the six police officers, HPG spokesperson Lt. Nadame Malamang said their violations included the lack of OR/CR and the improper use of insignias on private vehicles, especially motorcycles.
“The HPG issued citation tickets against the six we caught,” he said. Malamang said the inspection was carried out with other police units to ensure the PNP’s compliance with Republic Act No. 4136, or the Land Transportation and Traffic Code of the Philippines.
