DOTr set to issue order allowing motorcycle taxis to continue operating

Manila Bulletin

May 7, 2025

Department of Transportation (DOTr) Secretary Vince Dizon is set to sign a department order that would allow motorcycle taxi service companies to continue their operations while the industry awaits the passage of a law that would legalize their existence.

- By DEXTER BARRO II

Currently, there is no law that allows motorcycle taxis to ply Philippine roads.

Motorcycle taxis were only allowed on the streets after a pilot test approved by Congress in 2019 to determine their safety and reliability as a public transport option.

Originally set for six months, the pilot test was extended on several occasions as the Senate and House of Representatives sought to craft a measure to regulate the industry.

According to Dizon, this officially ended last year, which he said necessitates the urgency of the situation.
