Daily TribuneThe Land Transportation Office has summoned a former employee of the agency who was accused of bullying a delivery rider over a traffic misunderstanding in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan.
The incident was captured in a video which went viral after it was posted on social media.
LTO chief Assistant Secretary Atty. Vigor Mendoza II said a summon will be delivered to Gregorio Glean for him to appear before the Central Office this week as part of the investigation into the incident.
Mendoza said that he immediately instructed the Regional Director of LTO-Region 3 to conduct a thorough investigation into the incident, especially that there was an allegation that the motorist involved is connected with the LTO.
At the course of the investigation, it was found out that Glean was formerly a Job Order at the Driver's Licensing and Renewal Office of San Jose del Monte, Bulacan.
Mendoza said that he expects Glean to honor the summon as failure to do so means that he is waiving his right for all the measures that the LTO would take against him not only as a driver's license holder but also a former LTO personnel who is supposed to be a model of courtesy and discipline on the road.
He also instructed LTO Region 3 director Ronnie Montejo to make sure that Glean will no longer be hired by the LTO, especially that he was appealing to the LTO-Region 3 to go back to his old job.
Mendoza said that they will also invite the delivery rider as a witness in the investigation of the incident, adding that they will also coordinate with the local police force for any legal action that the delivery rider would pursue.
