According to the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Metrobase, the passenger bus (PWU 366) spilled oil on the southbound lane of EDSA near Shaw Boulevard at around 6:30 a.m.
The MMDA did not have to pour sand on the oil because the passing vehicles helped dry the oil faster, Metrobase said.
The bus driver remains unidentified as of press time but the vehicle was already impounded.

Vergel de Dios said this was because the new traffic scheme, which resumed yesterday, prevents colorum bus operators from plying EDSA.
