00:45while more than 25 were blocked due to the flooding.

00:55Three motorcycles were caught, one of which was wearing flip-flops.

01:01One SUV and one truck were also caught because of their violation of the traffic sign.

01:06One of the MMDA's captives was also blind.

01:10I came from Robinson. I was on the left.

01:13When the bus wanted me, I immediately went to the left.

01:16How can you be on the left? The bus is full of motorcycles.

01:19I sat down so that I could be on the left.

01:21That's why I'm explaining to you. You've been a driver for a long time.

01:24I've been a driver for a long time.

01:25Okay, so you know the broken line and the solid line.

01:27I know.

01:28Meaning, you can cross the broken line.

01:30If it's a solid line, you're not allowed to cross it.

01:32I came from Robinson. I was blind.

01:34I know. I know.

01:35I know that I'll cross it. You know that there are motorcycles there.

01:38That's why I told you that there's a broken line there.

01:40The problem is that you crossed the broken line.

01:42The MMDA also blocked the roads in Batasan Pambansa Complex

01:46like Batasan Road, Litex, and IBP Road.

01:50According to MMDA Strike Force Officer-in-Charge Gabriel Go,

01:54the operation is part of the preparation for the 3rd State of the Nation Address of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

02:01We have to ensure the mobility of our countrymen who use the roads

02:05and also to ensure that the sidewalks are clear from any forms of obstruction

02:10and that there is a safe path for our countrymen.
