Bill seeking to ban use of sidewalks for parking, business activities

[leodawesome]

Pano kaya yung mga gimikan sa gabi like qc area's west ave, banawe, timog, etc. Sa kalsada na nakapark mga sasakyan.

Sidewalks are beyond the commerce of men

In theory, sa Pilipins.

For legitimate businesses that make use of the sidewalks as parking spaces, for me, it is acceptable as long as they leave a clear space large enough for pedestrian traffic going both ways and their usage not spilling over to the road.

BF was implementing this here in Marikina for a long time. Ngayon iba na in mayor, wala ng kwenta, parking space na in mga sidewalks.

Ideally sana

no garage / no car policy.

no ample parking space for your customers / clients, no business permits and the like.

Err...parang hindi na kailangan ng Bill banning the use of sidewalks for parking kasi talaga namang bawal, dati pa:

Sec. 52 of R.A. 4136 otherwise known as the Traffic Code of the Philippines states:

"Section 52. Driving or parking on sidewalk. - No person shall drive or park a motor vehicle upon or along any sidewalk, path or alley not intended for vehicular traffic or parking."

For business activities, eh covered na ng MMDA Resolution No. 02-28 http://www.mmda.gov.ph/MMCResolution...es%2002-28.doc

So, I really don't know what a redundant law will do as the above laws/ordinances have been in effect for a long time already.

yan! pwede!

[_Qwerty_]

dapat kasi hindi pwede bumili nang sasakyan pag walang mapapakitang proper parking.. hindi yung parking sa tapat nang bahay or sa sidewalk..

Bawal mag park sa sidewalk pero pede magtayo ng shanty mga squatter?

[foresterx]

unang una di na kelangan bill na yan dahil bawal naman talaga mag park sa side walk. pangalawa kahit ano bill pa gawin nila kung walang mag enforce ng maayos bale wala pa din yan.
