TRECE MARTIRES CITY, Cavite (PIA)-- Metro Pacific Tollways South (MPT South) recently conducted the biggest live “Drayberks” road safety seminar in line with the pandemic season.

The orientation was done in partnership with One Cavite Transport Consortium, Inc., and the Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX) with at least 50 bus drivers from bus companies of Saulog Transit, Westcaboa, and Saint Anthony De Padua plying the Manila-Cavite Toll Expressway (CAVITEX) daily re-educated on road safety to improve awareness amidst higher travel demands.

Drayberks, an award-winning social advocacy of MPT South educates motorists on road safety and shows how they can take advantage of the safety features of the expressway. Since 2018, Drayberks continues to tap key stakeholders and transport groups to share important reminders to motorists on safety behind wheels.

“We hope that this (Drayberks) road safety orientation program, will help drivers be more conscious of being a defensive driver. This mindset of safety is valuable in keeping the bus drivers, other PUV drivers, and other motorists safe whilst sharing the road with one another,” said Ms. Arlette Capistrano, Assistant Vice President for Communication and Stakeholder Management of MPT South.
