LAWMAKERS at the House of Representatives proposed a measure that seeks to penalize acts of road rage.
The measure aims to make roads safer for all and protect all road users from all acts of road rage that not only cause unwarranted road obstruction but physical harm and even death in extreme cases. If such incident resulted in death to any of the person involved in a road rage incident, a penalty of imprisonment six years to 12 years and/ or a fine of not less than P250,000 but not more than P500,000, exclusive of all the damages incurred, shall be imposed at the discretion of the court.
“Nothing in this Act shall preclude a victim of Road Rage from instituting a separate civil, criminal, administrative, or other legal action, as may be appropriate,” read the bill.
