The Land Transportation Office (LTO) in Imus City in the province of Cavite is made up of a set of two LTO offices: the LTO Imus Driver’s License Renewal Office (DLRO) and the LTO Imus District Office (DO). These LTO offices were opened to serve the city of Imus and all the people within its geographical area of responsibility (GAOR), through the extension of the agency’s operations. The creation of these LTO offices allowed the agency to offer more accessible and convenient LTO services to the people. The LTO Imus Offices are also operated well in the hopes of making the LTO more effective in their regulation so the public can be rest assured of their safety on the road.
As the de jure capital of the province and the seat of the provincial religious center, Imus houses not only the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Imus but also other government agencies like the LTO in the area. These LTO branches are intended to keep the roads safe through more effective driver education, licensing, registration, and regulation, without the inconvenience of spending so much time, effort, and money on the end of the local motorists, drivers, and car owners who try to avail of and keep up with the LTO rules and regulatory policies.

The LTO offices in the city were physical manifestations of the agency’s desire to serve its mandate and ensure that their core programs and services—including the registration and renewal of motor vehicles (MV) and license and permits applications and renewals—are offered more conveniently, especially to the people whose work is done primarily behind the wheels or those who can’t afford to take the time off to travel to another place for their LTO-related needs.
