The government should LOWER the number of PUVs on the road. This would help SPEED UP public transportation. How? The solution of moving more people on the existing roads is NOT fielding more PUVs. Its a matter of making those PUVs to make more rounds in a day. Fielding more PUVs will simply give more seats but end up moving slower as a whole.

Less PUVs on the road will result in better service because you can revoke the operating franchise of a transport company and give it to another who OBEYS the road rules. A bad example is the habit of certain jeepneys to pickup passengers at the foot of road flyovers. Given the flyover is only two lanes wide, the particular jeepney is blocking 50% of the road, slowing up everyone else. Why can't the driver stop meters before the beginning or after the foot of the flyover? This will keep the vehicles moving at a faster pace.
