Senate President Vicente Sotto III urged the DILG to address the abuse of government convoys, citing worsening traffic congestion for ordinary motorists.
He recommended proper training and regular workshops for convoy personnel to ensure road courtesy and respect.
Sotto noted that some convoy escorts aggressively clear roads, irritating fellow drivers.
Senator JV Ejercito responded that the PNP has reduced convoys with escorts to nine high-ranking officials, including the President and Vice President.
Ejercito also highlighted that Sotto himself does not use a convoy, setting an example for others to follow.
