Define and Apply the Existing Traffic Laws, Rules and Regulations
DEFINE AND APPLY THE EXISTING TRAFFIC LAWS, RULES, AND REGULATIONS
The Philippines requires everyone to drive on the right side of the road and all vehicles must be left-hand drive. Unlike in most countries where both left and right-hand cars are allowed so long as the drivers follow which road they should drive on, right-hand drive vehicles are not allowed to operate in the country.
That simple requirement of using cars is part of the Philippine laws and might be common or uncommon as mentioned earlier. To make us more familiar with the law, let us take a look at Republic 4136, AN ACT TO COMPILE THE LAWS RELATIVE TO LAND TRANSPORTATION AND TRAFFIC RULES, TO CREATE A LAND TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.
