Summary

Do note that you are expected to take the Theoretical Driving Course and pass the TDC exam to get a Theoretical Driving Course (TDC) certificate which is a requirement before you can apply for a driver’s license. It’s a sort of a refresher course designed to refresh your driving and road safety knowledge as well as test your level of proficiency in the LTO concepts. The test is designed like a final test, to see how well you remember the things that LTO hopes you remember so you can become a great defensive driver and keep yourself and others safe on the road. While accidents happen regardless of what you know, the TDC ensures that you have every bit of information you need should you get into a situation while on the road.

Do note that the passing score for Theoretical Driving Course (TDC) exam is not much different from the LTO written exam. You will need to get at least thirty (30) out of forty (40) questions correctly if you are taking it as a requirement for the non-professional driver’s license. For those who are testing to prepare for a professional driver’s license application, then you need to make sure you get at least forty-five (45) out of sixty (60) questions correctly in the exam. With this comprehensive reviewer, we hope to help you prepare better and avoid wasting time taking and retaking the test. After all, not everyone is blessed with time and money, so it’s best to get it out of the way as soon as possible. In any case, it doesn’t take much practice to make sure you pass the TDC exam on your first attempt.

In fact, some may even think it’s best not to get your own car, but one cannot discount the comforts of driving a private car. In any case, with the number coding scheme, otherwise known as the Modified Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program (UVVRP), currently being implemented in Metro Manila, it’s a little better so long as you pay attention to where you can and cannot go.  

The number coding scheme in Metro Manila is one of the government’s latest attempts to manage the increasing congestion on the roads in the region. It was launched a while back, in 1995, starting out as the odd-even scheme, before evolving into the color coding scheme known to the older generations. Now, it’s known as number coding—a road space rationing system, implemented by the Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) to reduce the traffic volume in Metro Manila.

What is Coding Violation

Coding violation refers to the violation of the rules and regulations of the number coding scheme or UVVRP. It is one of the many types of traffic rule transgressions, and is one of the most violated ones, too. In fact, Baguio City had recorded about 15,679 coding apprehensions in the past seven months alone. If it’s this much in the Summer Capital alone, imagine how many more coding violations have been recorded in other cities, particularly in Metro Manila? And why does it seem like people are not afraid of violating the coding system?

One of the first reasons you might have thought of is that maybe the fines and penalties attributed to coding violations aren’t scary or hefty enough. Maybe it really isn’t, so let’s take a look at what it means to violate the number coding rules and regulations. 

Coding Violations Fees and Penalties

Generally, any person found to be violating the Modified Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program (UVVRP) or the Number Coding Scheme shall be meted with the following:

Payment of coding violation fee

The standard fine ranges between ₱300.00 to ₱500.00, according to the single ticketing system of the Metro Manila Traffic Code and depending upon where the violation was committed. This penalty must be paid within seven days. Failure to do so within the given period will result in additional fines. It could be especially inconvenient when renewing your driver’s license. 

Confiscation of license and issuance of traffic ticket

In some places, the violator’s driver’s license used to be confiscated while the enforcers issued a ticket, which can be used to claim the license after the payment of the fine.

Other Fees and Penalties

In other places with number coding ordinances, there are different fines and penalties imposed on coding violations. These are as follows:

  • In Alabang, in case you violate the rule, you will have a fine of ₱500.00 on the first offense, ₱750.00 on the second offense, and ₱1,000 on the third and succeeding offenses. Do note that these penalties and coding schemes were prior to the pandemic as such some rules may have changed. 
  • In Cavite, any person found violating the UVRS or Number Coding Scheme shall be meted a fine of Three Hundred Pesos (₱300.00). For this purpose, the violator’s driver’s license shall be confiscated and issued a ticket, which ticket shall be used to claim the license after the payment of the fine.
  • According to the new matrix, violators should pay the following: ₱500.00 each for number coding, tricycle ban and arrogance/discourteous conduct.

Payment Channels for Number Coding Violations

If you’re wondering where and how you are supposed to settle the fine for your number coding scheme violation, then the MMDA offers the following list of payment channels to choose from:

  • MMDA Traffic Management Division
  • Landbank Link Biz Portal
  • Bayad Center
  • SM Bills Payment
  • PayMaya
  • GCash
  • GrabPay

Exemptions to the Number Coding Scheme

Like any other rule or law, the number coding scheme or UVVRP also comes with exemptions for special cases and vehicles. These exemptions mean that the coding scheme does not apply to certain vehicle types and on certain roads even though the scheme works in the city with jurisdiction over the area.

For more specific lists, you can refer to this complete guide to places and instances with coding exemptions:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

For your reference, here are some common questions and answers that will help you gain more insight about the coding violation fees and the number coding scheme:

1. Can MMDA confiscate licenses for coding violations?

No. Only the Land Transportation Office (LTO) officers and their deputized agents may confiscate your licenses pursuant to Republic Act (RA) 4136, also known as the Land Transportation and Traffic Code. That said, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) traffic enforcers cannot confiscate your licenses.

2. Does the number coding scheme apply only in Metro Manila?

No. In an effort to regulate vehicular activities in different areas, the UVVRP has also been stretched throughout different locations outside of Metro Manila. These places include Baguio, Cavite, Cabanatuan, and Dagupan, with all cities following the same daily conduction sticker or license plate restriction. 

Baguio, for instance, imposes the number coding scheme in the Central Business District which is crowded due to offices, businesses, and big schools situated within the area. There are selected areas that are limited to restrictions, too, which includes:

  • Session Road
  • Burnham Park
  • Baguio City Market 

Cavite City has also been practicing the coding scheme, with its number coding scheme being implemented during weekdays from 6 AM to 7 PM on the following major thoroughfares within the territorial jurisdiction of the province:

  • Aguinaldo Highway (Bacoor to Dasmarinas-Silang boundary)
  • Governor’s Drive (Carmona to Trece Martires City – Tanza boundary)
  • Molino-Salawag-Paliparan Road (Zapote, Bacoor to Paliparan, Dasmarinas)
  • Molino Boulevard
  • Daang Hari Road (Aguinaldo Highway, Imus to Molino, Bacoor)

3. What are the Number Coding hours?

Generally, the standard number coding scheme period applies so the restriction is effective from 7 AM to 10 AM and from 5 PM to 8 PM. There are, however, special areas such as Makati City that still stick with the traditional 7 AM to 7 PM coding scheme with no window hours at all.

4. What are the Number Coding days?

As a driver or even as a car owner, knowing your vehicle’s plate number will lead to knowing your car coding days. After all the days when your car is coded depends on the last digit of your plate number. In particular, it is especially important to remember as it determines the day when you should avoid using it to avoid violating the number coding days. Plate numbers that end with 1 and 2 are not allowed to travel on certain roads every Monday. The same policy applies on plate numbers 3 and 4 every Tuesday, 5 and 6 every Wednesday, 7 and 8 every Thursday, and 9 and 0 every Friday.

Summary

As a driver or car owner, it is imperative to be aware of your vehicle’s plate number, especially the last digit, as well as the coding rules and regulations. This will help you avoid the inconvenience of settling hefty coding violations fees and penalties. It is also important to avoid using your car on days when it is coded to avoid having to face unnecessary troubles when renewing your driver’s license later on. Plus, it pays to know the coding violations fees in advance so you can avoid getting tricked if you’re ever faced with a coding violation later on. After all, a lot of enforcers tend to want to make profit out of most everything, thanks to the corrupt system which is effective in many places in the country.

What is the emission testing price in the Philippines

In recent years, the rally towards the reduction of carbon footprint and air pollutants have become more intense not only in the Philippines but on a global scale. Electric vehicles have also started to become more advanced and more popular. Gasoline vehicles, on the other hand, have been more strictly regulated, with the additional inspection and emission testing requirements before they can be registered. 

In the Philippines, the Land Transportation Office (LTO), has shown its support to the implementation of the Clean Air Act or R.A. 8749 by mandating motor vehicles to undergo emission testing. If you are a vehicle owner, you’re probably already wondering how much it would set you back. In this article, you can learn more about emission testing as well as the emission testing price in the Philippines.

What is Emission Testing in the Philippines

Emission testing refers to the mandatory test required as part of the car’s registration in the Philippines. It is usually done upon the renewal of the car’s registration, and is required at the LTO. This test measures the level of fumes or pollutants like hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM), and other emissions released from the exhaust manifold of a vehicle.

The emission test is required by the LTO in a bid to support the campaign to lessen the harmful pollutants in the air. In order to do so, car owners are mandated to get their vehicle tested. Only when the vehicle has been issued a Certificate of Emission Compliance (CEC) for Passed Testing will it be allowed to process a registration renewal. 

Emission Testing Centers, Price, and Procedures

Because the LTO requires it, millions of cars in the Philippines are expected to go seek for emission testing services. To address the need, numerous emission testing centers are established nationwide. 

It is at these centers where the emission testing process takes place. The process makes use of a cutting-edge digital exhaust-measuring system. The OBD-II scanner, which collects essential data from your car, is handled by a skilled technician.

Procedures

Before you can get your car checked, the first thing to do is contact your preferred private emission testing center (PETC). Once you have an appointment, you can head straight and start the process. 

To accurately measure the quality of the car’s exhaust gasses, particularly the levels of Hydrocarbons and CO2 emitted, the technician uses a specialized sensor inserted into the vehicle’s exhaust system. Once the preparations are complete, the technician starts the car and revs it to a predetermined RPM, effectively replicating real-life driving conditions. Once the test machine successfully records the necessary readings, then it means that the evaluation has been completed.

Pricing

Getting your car monitored for the harmful gasses they release does come with a price. The price of emission testing in the Philippines typically ranges from Php 430.00 to Php 600.00, however, some netizens from Bulacan claim to have had the same service at Php 200.00 to Php 250.00 or Php 300.00

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

For your reference, here are some questions and answers related to emission testing and its price:

1. Are PETCs and Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers (MVIC) the same?

No. PETCs or Private Emission Testing Centers are places where emission testing is conducted. On the other hand, MVICs or Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers refer to the place where the entire performance of a vehicle is checked. 

2. Is it necessary to get both the emission test and inspection done before renewing your motor vehicle registration?

No. It’s not necessary to do both. However, motorists still need to secure either a CEC from emission testing centers or an MVIR from private motor vehicle inspection centers (PMVICs) as a requirement for vehicle registration renewal. 

3. What are the requirements for car emission testing?

If you are coming in to get the emission test done for your motor vehicles, you will need the following:

  • Photocopy of your car’s official receipt (OR) 
  • Photocopy of your car’s certificate of registration (CR)
  • Enough money to cover the emission testing price

4. How long does it take to complete a car emission test?

A quick and efficient motor vehicle emission test typically lasts only 10 to 15 minutes. However, sometimes, it does take longer depending on factors like failed emission test due to the following:

  • inadequate maintenance
  • worn spark plugs
  • dirty air filter
  • inefficient combustion
  • severe engine problem due to gasket leaks
  • cracked engine block
  • cracked cylinder head
  • cracked piston
  • cracked camshaft
  • alterations that affect the air/fuel mixture
  • higher emissions
  • un-calibrated emission testing machines
  • negligent technicians

5. Do I need to drive around before the emissions test?

Yes. You need to warm your car up before the emission test. After all, warmer engines are more likely to pass the emissions test. Having said that, you need to make sure to drive for a while before you arrive at the testing center. The rule of thumb is to drive around for at least half an hour to a full hour prior to the test. A mix of city and highway driving will give you the best results. The best way to do it is to drive around for about 15 minutes at city speeds (between 30-45 MPH) then to drive for another 15 minutes at highway speeds (55-70 MPH) for the best results. This way, your vehicle’s engine will reach the right operating temperature and will be running efficiently during the test.

Summary

Getting an emission test done on your car is mandatory in the Philippines. Not only does it help control the pollutants in the air caused by your car in accordance with the Clean Air Act, but it also helps get your vehicle inspected for potential damages that causes excessive emission of hazardous substances. The emission limits may vary between car types, but each has its own threshold as mandated by the Clean Air Act. When you go for your vehicle’s mandatory emission testing, make sure that you have not only the necessary requirements but also the necessary funds to pay the emission testing price. After all, if you do not come prepared, you might end up having to come back for it which is even more taxing than going for the emission test itself.
