This means that motorcycle taxi services, which many commuters use to skirt bad traffic, will not be allowed to operate in areas under general community quarantine.
— The policy against back-riding on motorcycles, also called pillion riding, stays in areas under general community quarantine, the Department of Transportation said Saturday.
[The big issue regarding back-riding on motorcycles for married couples is enforcement. So, the DOTr still does not allow this.] One of the issues is ensuring that the driver and passenger keep enough space from each other to prevent the spread of the coronavirus disease, Tugade said. Iloilo City Mayor Jerry Treñas sent a similar appeal to the IATF, with hopes that instead of just the wife or husband, other immediate family members could also be permitted to be pillion passengers.
