Good news for patrons of car parks.

The bill outlawing the waiver of liability for carparks passes third reading in the HoR

Hopefully, the Senate will do their part, and fast.

This should become law.

Ako na na I don't agree, siguro hospitals and restaurants hotels pwede as long as meron kang ginastos doon na minimum amount then good for Ilan oras lang. Pero sa mga parking like sa makati yun mga parking structures talaga dapat hinde kasama, wala ng gagawa ng parking pag ganyan, instead na gawin parking yun lupa gawin na lang tindahan or something kikita pa sila kesa na meron limit yun parking fee.

Kung kaya naman kasi mag saskayn eh di dapat kaya din magbayad ng parking fee.

to me,
it is akin to renting out a house, and if said house is subsequently broken into, owner is responsible for the damages...

but i do expect the parking lot operator to exercise the usual precautions... ambulant guards and such...
i would not expect a guard standing beside my car at all times.

papogi na batas

kung ako owner ng carpark tataasan ko ung parking fee para may pang hire ako ng additional guards and install more CCTV

tapos full inspection bawat kotse bago pumasok

increase parking fee to pay insurance premium

bibili ako insurance in case may magreklamo may nangyari sa kotse niya

i am reminded of some SM parking lots.
full inspection daw for all entering vehicles.
but anyone and everyone can carry in and out of the park, anything they can carry, via unguarded pedestrian passageways.

inspection all around the car for existing scratches and dents

baka isisi pa sakin nangyari yan sa carpark

bawat parking slot may dedicated cctv -- lahat ng cost ipasa sa customer

-

lakihan ang space ng bawat parking slot

ung pag bukas ng pinto wala tatamaan ibang sasakyan

pero mas mataas parking fee pambawi sa lower number of cars na tatanggapin sa car park

Note that the bill outlaws the absolute waiver of liability now written on the terms and conditions of the parking tickets.

If something happens to the car while in the carpark, the carpark operator cannot just wash their hands like what they are doing now.

This bill, if it becomes law, should ensure that these carpark owners/operators do their part in keeping the vehicles of their patrons safe and secure.

In my case, I parked at Robinsons Pioneer some years back and one headlamp washer of the MS was stolen. Talagang naiwan nalang ay butas. Mukhang na pag tripan lang siguro. Vehicle was parked near the entrance and within full view of the guard. I complained to the car park / mall operator. Guess what? Walang nangyari. Hugas kamay sila. Hindi puede yun. Na perwisyo na ako, nagbayad pa ako sa car park at ako pa ang nawalan. Never went back to that place and luckily never had to.

This bill is timely and should be passed.

but what about mis-deeds that can be successfully accomplished in just a few seconds, simply by twisting the object of their intent?
i mean, even if the guard was just a meters away, perhaps at the rear of the vehicle, the guard might not even notice the act.

laws should be enforceable and should be fair to all concerned.

I agree. This is all a matter of evidence already. Whoever is liable should pay. That is the fair resolution.

What the bill addresses is the waiver of liability of these carparks even if it is clearly their fault either due to negligence or fault.
