Who owns this SUV?
The Philippine Star|November 06, 2024
Two days after a Cadillac Escalade entered the EDSA busway and nearly hit a traffic enforcer, with the passenger giving the enforcers the dirty finger as the sport utility vehicle sped away, the Land Transportation Office has yet to trace the owner of the SUV.

The LTO did say on Monday that the "7" protocol plate on the SUV - a number assigned to senators - was fake. Until last night, however, the LTO still could not identify the owner and driver of the Escalade, or the passenger who flashed the dirty finger.

A senator said he learned from the LTO that there are only 24 Escalades registered with the agency all over the country. How hard can it be to trace the ownership, and pin down the owner of the SUV that entered the busway? Even if the protocol plate was fake, all registered vehicles have conduction stickers. Was the sticker on the Escalade also fake?
