Holders of driver's licenses with a five-year and 10-year validity do not need to undergo periodic medical examinations, the Land Transportation Office said on Sunday.

Holders of driver's licenses with a five-year and 10-year validity do not need to undergo periodic medical examinations, the Land Transportation Office said on Sunday.

Under existing rules, holders of driver's licenses with five-year validity have to secure medical clearances by the third birthdate from the issuance of the license. “There’s no empirical data showing that periodic medical examinations could prevent road crashes,” Tugade said in a statement. “For motorists who will be issued driver’s licenses with 5 or 10 years validity, the medical examination shall only be required sixty days prior to or on the specified renewal date,” Tugade said.
