Grandma wants PNoy to order mandatory brakes checkup

CHECK THE BRAKES. A 70-year-old grandmother whose three grandsons and their mother died in a vehicular accident because the motor vehicle they were riding had faulty brakes has written the President to order a mandatory checkup of the brakes of all motor vehicles in the country. “Many have died and more will die because of the defective brakes of motor vehicles,” she said.

INCLUDE THE MOTORCYCLES. This grandmother said motorcycles should be included in the inspection of the vehicles’ brakes. She informed the President in her letter that she, too, nearly died when a motorcycle bumped her.
