In the age of the Internet and social media, it’s been easier to call out motoring misdeeds, especially on the part of the Land Transportation Office. The agency has handed out show cause orders at a seemingly non-stop pace, and nowadays, it’s apparently become standard practice for netizens to tag the LTO in every viral post that features an erring or unruly motorist.
Now, the agency is making it even easier for the public to report incidents. It has now launched the ‘I-report mo kay LTO Chief’ website and Facebook page through which anyone can directly send their reports to the LTO.
To file a report, you have three options: via Facebook messenger, the official I-report mo kay LTO Chief website, or the official hotline at 1342-586. The hotline is open 24/7. According to the website, anyone can use the platform.

Examples of reports that you may send to the LTO include road-rage incidents, LTO corruption or misconduct, unregistered or colorum vehicles, and reckless driving. You may also send feedback and other LTO-related concerns via this new platform.
All reports will be subject to evaluation before they’re acted upon. The reports will then be referred to the concerned LTO office, when appropriate, for further action. The LTO says that individuals may report anonymously, however, the lack of identification may limit validation, appropriate action, and updates.
The camapign is anchored on Repulic Act No. 11032 or the Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018 and RA 4136 or the Land Transportation and Traffic Code.
The LTO also happily shared on its website some statistics on its actions from October 2025 to April 2026. It turns out that over that period, the agency has suspended 258 driver’s licenses and revoked another 360. It’s alarming how more licenses were revoked than suspended—it gives us a glimpse of what motoring in the Philippines is like.
Anyway, the next time you catch someone doing something stupid on the road, there’s no need to post it on Facebook and wait for it to go viral—if you really want the LTO to act on it, just submit the report directly to the agency.
