Status of CPC:

  2. Blacklisting of the apprehended vehicle and all other authorized units included in the CPC from being used as a public utility vehicle; and
  3. Revocation of the registration of the apprehended ve­hicle and all other authorized units included in the franchise.

2nd Offense

  1. Revocation of ALL CPCs (entire fleet) of the operator;
  2. Disqualification of the operator, and, in case of a corporation, all its stockholders and directors, to operate any kind of public land transportation;
  3. Blackisting of ALL authorized units (entire fleet) of the operator from being used as public utility vehicle; and
  4. Revocation of the registration of ALL authorized units (entire fleet) of the operator.

In deteremining the frequency of offenses, LTFRB and its RFRBs will count offenses against operators and not against a particular motor vehicle or CPC. Hence, the second apprehension of a vehicle belonging to the same operator, regardless of whether the first and second vehicle apprehended are included in the same or different CPCs, shall be counted as (2nd) offense.

If a private motor vehicle operating as a PUV but without proper authority from the LTFRB is apprehended, the LTFRB or RFRBs shall, in addition to the abovementioned fines, impounding, and penalty, disqualify the registered owner, and, in case of a corporation, all its stockholders and directors, to operate any kind of public land transportation.
