"We have to give them the chance to know the new rules and how they will adjust. Besides, the P2,500 fine is huge,
it is costly for them, so let us give them one month so they would know what to do," he added.
But he clarified that the vehicles are still prohibited in some national roads under Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Regulation No. 24-022 Series of 2024.
"The grace period covers the non-issuance of tickets, penalties, and impoundment of e-trikes," Marcos said.
If drivers of the affected vehicles are flagged, they will only be informed about the roads they may use and the new rules designed to promote road safety and order, he added.
The ban, which started on April 15, covers the traversing of e-vehicles, such as e-bikes and e-trikes, tricycles, pedicabs, pushcarts, and kuligligs on national roads, circumferential and radial roads in Metro Manila.
