Q&A (LTO MEMORANDUM)

The memorandum concerns the exemption of vintage cars from the right-hand drive regulations under DOTC Order No. 94-829, which scheduled the phase-out of in-use right-hand drive vehicles.

The specific DOTC Order referenced is DOTC Order No. 94-829.

The LTO is directed to renew the registration of vintage cars that are exempt from the right-hand drive phase-out regulations.

Vintage cars are classified under item 4d of DOTC Order No. 94-829 for exemption from the right-hand drive regulations.

The LTO, following the directive from the DOTC and Undersecretary Primitivo C. Cal, is authorized to renew registration for exempted vintage vehicles.

The letter from Mr. Tomas B. De Castro III, President of the Classic Car Club of the Philippines, supported the exemption of vintage cars from the right-hand drive regulations.

No, the exemption only applies to vintage cars classified under item 4d of DOTC Order No. 94-829; other right-hand drive vehicles are subject to scheduled phase-out.

Vintage car owners whose vehicles qualify can have their registrations renewed despite their vehicles having right-hand drive configurations.

The LTO memorandum was signed by Brigadier General Manuel F. Bruan (Ret.), Assistant Secretary.
