LTO-7 clarifies policy on ride-hailing apps
The Freeman
|September 17, 2025
The Land Transportation Office in Central Visayas (LTO-7) has clarified that its recent enforcement drive is not a targeted campaign against Maxim riders but part of a broader crackdown on “colorum” or illegal transport services in the region.
-
The clarification came after Maxim drivers and members of PISTON Cebu staged a picket rally on Monday, September 15, outside the LTO-7 main office along N. Bacalso Avenue, denouncing what they described as “selective and unjust enforcement” of regulations.
LTO-7 Director Glen G. Galario said that only three motorcycle ride-hailing apps, Move It, Angkas, and JoyRide, are authorized under the government's Motorcycle Taxi Pilot Study Program in Metro Cebu.
"We are not singling them out. We are only implementing the law. These are the only apps authorized to operate as part of the pilot study," Galario said.
