A tricycle driver has shared that he now needs to budget P150 for two days worth of food for his family. In a TV Patrol report, the driver shared that the prices of fuel have greatly affected their income.

In another road-related story, the security guard who was ran over by an SUV in Mandaluyong has accepted the apology issued by the suspect. Christian Floralde has signified that he accepts the apology of Jose Sanvicente. Despite this, however, he would still push through with the case against the errant driver. A preliminary hearing at the Mandaluyong City Hall prosecutor's office was conducted, but only the lawyer of the suspect appeared.
