00:00Good evening, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
00:04We have an issue, and it's a disgrace that you were caught racing on Marcos Highway in Pasig City.
00:12Other vehicles are being blocked by motorcyclists.
00:17The vehicles are still being chased, especially when they have blocked the road for the public.
00:23Mark Salazar is on the spot.
00:25The loud revolutions of the cars' cylinders at 10 p.m.
00:34That's what the residents of Marcos Highway, part of Pasig City, are waiting for.
00:46And the presence of drug racers is dangerous on the road.
00:51A full resident took a video and complained to the police yesterday.
00:56At about 1 to 2 a.m., sir, we got a call from 9-1-1.
01:03Legitimately, there was a drug racing on Marcos Highway.
01:07Then, immediately, our police responded to the area.
01:11When the troops arrived, they ran.
01:14Maybe they were scared.
01:16When the troops arrived, two motorcycles were left behind.
01:21The motorcyclists are the ones who are blocking other motorcyclists
01:25so that Marcos Highway can be clear and a racetrack.
01:28They can see the residents of the barangay,
01:31but they are not deputized to be affected by traffic violations.
01:35Most of the time, sir, when there are no people on the other side,
01:40that's when they start chasing.
01:43Yesterday, the police chased them. They passed by and ran.
01:46Maybe our cars are being watched.
01:48Every time they turn around, they will be seen.
01:51When they are far away, that's when they start chasing the drug racers.
01:57The Pasig Police Substation 8 is located in a large area
02:00and there are only 15 police officers per shift.
02:03Three barangays are in our area.
02:06But we will not neglect Marcos Highway
02:09because it is a strategic place for many people.
02:14In this impounding area,
02:16two motorcycles were left behind by those involved in drug racing.
02:21One of his motorcycles was redeemed
02:23and he was fined P4,400 for violating the Anti-Drug Racing Ordinance of the Pasig.
02:32There is no lead on the two cars that were hit
02:35because their plates were not captured in the viral video.
02:38Aside from the fine of P4,400 for violating the Anti-Drug Racing Ordinance,
02:44their drivers are also facing a fine of P2,000 for reckless driving.
02:50We are still backtracking to see if we can get closer to the CCTV of the area.
