Artes said under the single ticketing system, the fine is P1,000 for those who violate road obstruction. He added anti-obstruction laws have been in place for a long time, and his agency can implement it at any time or day. The MMDA made the decision following a recent meeting with representatives of motorcycle ride-hailing firms – Grab, Angkas, Joyride, Toktok, Transportify, Maxim Riders Food Delivery, and Move It at the agency’s main office in Pasig City.
