Should be nationwide... unfortunately enforcement is another problem.

Makati bans kids riding on motorbikes - Manila Standard

Riders with children on board are only allowed unless all of the following conditions are met: 1) the child’s feet can comfortably reach the foot peg of the motorcycle; 2) the child’s arms can reach around and grasp the waist of the driver; and 3) the child is wearing a standard protective helmet, which bears a Philippine Standard or Import Commodity Clearance mark.

The ordinance also banned tricycles operating anywhere within the city from conveying minors in front or at the back of the driver’s seat.

The only exception provided by the ordinance is for cases where the minor or child to be transported requires immediate medical attention.

Tricycle and motorcycle drivers who violate the ordinance will be penalized as follows: P2,000 on the first offense; P3,000 on the second offense; P5,000 or imprisonment of a maximum of six months, or both on the third offense.

The ordinance was published last Dec. 12 in a newspaper of general circulation, and will take effect after 10 days, according to the Secretary to the Sangguniang Panlungsod of Makati.

Common sa Sucat yung isang buong pamilya (mag-asawa at 2 anak) nakasakay sa isang motor. Even worse, walang pakialam sumingit eh buhay ng buong pamilya nya nakasalalay sa kaskasero nilang pagmamaneho.

I agree. Sa dinami dami ng batas sa Pilipinas (tayo na yata ang may pinaka madami), wala naman napapatupad ng maayos at consistent. Sayang lang energy at oras sa pag publish nila ng law na ito. Sorry for the rant and negative attitude. Nanghihinayang kasi ako sa tax na binabawas sa atin, napupunta lang sa wala.

Isa pa ito! Last week ata yun, namatay yung isang MC rider tapos sinisisi yung tanker driver. Yung MC rider, nakainom na menor de edad (16) na walang lisensya at walang helmet. Katakot-takot na offense yun - wala karapatan sa daan ang mga tulad nito. Dinamay nya pa yung tanker driver sa kagaguhan nya.
