THE Land Transportation Office said that they will run out of plastic cards for driver's licenses in the next two weeks.

 

This is despite the donation of 4 million cards from a private group. 

 

According to LTO Assistant Secretary Vigor Mendoza II they are awaiting for the final opinion that will come from the Office of the Solicitor General to ensure the legality of the donation.

 

"As far as card is concerned, wala pa tayong card. 'Yung donation of 4 million card, were still awaiting the final OSG opinion para plantsado lang 'yung the legal side," he said.

 

"Ang totoo po d'yan, nauubusan na tayo ng card. We have recommended to the Secretary the agency to agency acquisition from government printing offices na para mapabilis. Kasi wala. By the end of January, I think our inventory as of yesterday is only good for 2 weeks," he added.

 

According to the LTO chief there are several district offices in malls that already ran out of plastic cards for driver's licenses.

 

The LTO earlier said an association of medical clinics is donating 4 million plastic cards worth an estimated P160 million to the agency.
