DPWH brass backs motorcycle lane

 LINGAYEN – The second highway engineering district officer hailed the call of Congress for the setting up a “motorcycle lane” along highways in order to ensure the safety of motorcyclists and their riders.

Expressing  full  support  for this  call, Highways District Engineer Rodolfo Dion said  a motorcycle lane along  the  national  highways would  minimize road accidents  since there are now more vehicles on  the highways.

Dion said an exclusive lane for motorcyclists along all highways throughout the country would minimize accidents that may even cost lives.

He confirmed that he submitted this proposal many years back but this was largely ignored by higher officials.

“We could protect the motorcycle-riding people who are prone to accident along the highways if they are given an exclusive lane where they would pass, separate from the lanes appropriated for four-wheeled vehicles,” he added.–APE
