"Honestly, I think mandatory registration for e-bikes and e-trikes might really be necessary at this point. A lot more people are using them now, and having proper registration could help with safety and accountability. But at the same time, many of us only use our e-bikes for short trips — like quick errands around town — so the rules should still be fair and practical for everyday users." - Mel Ig, on the #OpinYonistangLagunense poll posted last November 26 regarding the registration of e-bicycles and e-tricycles
“OK for license and registration. But bigyan ng equal right sa road usage. Dati nang bawal ang tricycle sa main thoroughfares pero ngayon e-trikes lang ang pinagbabawalan. The law should be applicable to all or no one at all.”
- Jennie Maneja, on the #OpinYonistangLagunense poll posted last November 26 regarding the registration of e-bicycles and e-tricycles
“Tama, para safe rin ang driver at sakay ng e-bikes at e-trikes ganon na rin sa ibang motorista at pedestrian. Dapat din magseminar para alam ang batas trapiko lalo na mga nag-eebike para mabigyan ng tamang driver’s license. Yung iba, hindi naman lahat, hari ng kalsada, talagang sa gitna na, yung binusinahan para para gumilid dahil sa mabagal, parang mga bingi sa kalsada. Yan naman ay para sa kapakanan ng lahat.”

What's causing the recent ‘carmaggedon’ at SLEX?
“1.) Meron tulay na two-way pero four lanes lang. Ang pumapasok na trafik ay anim na direksyon. Di kaya ng tulay ang volume lalo sa rush hour. 2.) Yang daan patawid ng riles patungo sa Lower [Bicutan], mabagal ang daloy dahil sa lubak sa kalsada, nagkalat na vendor at yang elevation ng riles at kalsada malaki ang gap kaya kelangan magbagal at mag-ingat. 3.) Criss-cross ang motorista, dapat malayo pa lang meron na designated lane. 4.) Dapat maidentify kung sino ang owner ng problema na yan: LGU ba or SLEX? Yan ang tingin ko.”
