Sports car driver gets ticket after overtaking PNoy's convoy

[ZENMasterTYL]

MANILA (UPDATED) - A sports car-driving Makati resident was cited for reckless driving at the Skyway after overtaking several vehicles of the presidential convoy, including the car of President Benigno Aquino III himself.

The President was heading for Manila after inspecting the international airport terminals when the incident happened.

A Malacañang source identified the driver as Jeffrey Roxas-Chua, a resident of Urdaneta Village, Makati. He was driving a red 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution with license plate UWI 797.

According to the Palace source, Roxas-Chua first tried to overtake the vehicle of the Presidential Communication and Operations Office (PCOO), forcing the PCOO driver to slow down and give way.

Two police cars tried to block Roxas-Chua from cutting in the convoy, but the latter managed to outdrive them. He then wove in and out of the other vehicles until he reached the President's car and overtook it.

A cop aboard a motorcycle flagged down Roxas-Chua and issued him a ticket for reckless driving, noting he was going much faster than the 100 kilometers per hour allowed on the Skyway.

But Roxas-Chua allegedly got mad and demanded to know the name of the policeman, who answered that he was with the presidential escorts and that his name was on the ticket itself. He also took a video of the policeman who issued him a ticket.

Roxas-Chua then allegedly told the policeman: "Kay Presidente pala kayo ha. Ganyan pala. Humanda ka pag naging presidente si Binay o si Erap. Ipatatanggal kita."

In a statement, however, Manila City Development Information Office chief Diego Cagahastian said Estrada does not know Roxas-Chua.

"Nagbilin na sya [Estrada] sa mga pulis na walang gagamit ng pangalan [niya] lalo na sa kalsada. Hindi niya kilalang yung Chua,” Cagahastian said.

A Google search showed Roxas-Chua is into customizing sports cars and joining racing events.

Pag presidente ba ang asa unahan at babagal bagal e hindi na pwede iwan sa lansangan at dapat asa likod ka lang.

If it's an official government security convoy and you cut into the convoy, as he did, yes, that's illegal.

As stated in the article, he wove in and out of the convoy, dicing with the police cars.

I'm surprised he got that far, actually. He should have been pulled over before he got close to the presidential car.

pasalamat nga siya di siya niratrat kaagad, pwede kasing isipin agad ng escorts na threat siya at hostile.
