Motorcycle barriers no longer required for people living in the same house
Starting Wednesday, motorcycle barriers will no longer be required for riders and back-riders who are living in the same residence, the Joint Task Force COVID Shield announced on Tuesday night.
The easing of restrictions on motorcycle pillion riding came after the National Task Force on COVID-19 chaired by Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana approved the recommendation of the JTF COVID Shield to further ease the restrictions on married and living-in couples, family members and even people who are not related but live in the same residence.
Eleazar said the Philippine National Police, through Director for Operations Maj. Gen. Emmanuel Luis Licup, has already released a guideline to all police commanders on the implementation of new rules on motorcycle pillion riding. “The driver of the motorcycle may or may not be an APOR. Also, both riders should also wear face masks and full-face helmets that must be worn all the time while back-riding,” said Eleazar.
