Group of TNVS providers appeals for amnesty for 5,000 drivers, seeks Duterte’s help

Deactivated Grab drivers park their cars in front of the LTFRB along East Ave in Quezon City, as they protest the deactivation of 8,000 Grab Drivers.

“Karamihan po sa amin ay nadeactivate dahil sa kakulangan ng papeles upang mabigyan ng provisional authority at certificate of public convenience . Gustuhin man po namin na ayusin ang aming mga papeles para makapag-hanapbuhay ng walang pangamba, ginigipit kami ng LTFRB at sadyang pinapahirapan na makakuha ng PA at CPC,” the group said in their letter dated June 24.

In the seven-page letter, the group added it wants amnesty for the 5,000 TNVS partners whose livelihoods were imperilled due to the mass deactivation done by ride-sharing firm Grab Philippines. Apart from this, the group also appealed to the President and to the DOTr chief to allow a “beta-test” on hatchbacks in the ride-hailing industry, similar to the six-month pilot-test run granted by transport regulators to motorcycle-taxis.
