On December 10, 2008, my driver was apprehended by the Anti-Smoke Belching Team of Makati at J.P. Rizal, Makati under the EDSA Bridge. His license was confiscated by the authority and got a fine of P1,000. It was the first offense of my driver. As per DENR Rules and Regulation (R.A. #8749) on Clean Air Act, fine for first offense is P 200; second offense is P500 and third and succeeding offense is P 1,000. So why charge us P1,000 right away? Isn’t it that they are only the delegated agent of DENR? Lastly, may I call the attention of this Anti-Smoke Belching Team, because I saw a member of their group smoking, he is “Mr. R. Reyes.” If you love clean air, DON’T SMOKE! You are also violating the Clean Air Act. Note:

What should be the correct RPM reading (aka. level of ‘engine revolution’) when smoke emmission test is ongoing? Should it be 3,000 rpm or 5,000 rpm?

I still remember my gasoline FX, how many times have they stop me because they claim smoke belching. After learning it’s a gasoline engine , they let me go. Kwarta lang yun. Most dont have the apparatus to test

Loren Legarda wants to plant and preserve our trees. Yet Angara is cutting our trees wantonly. Perfect combination, these two.
