Advisory for Commuters
For individuals planning to travel during Holy Week, particularly within Laguna, Quezon, Camarines Sur, and Albay, it is strongly advised to make travel arrangements in advance. Passengers may opt for alternative transportation such as public utility buses, vans, or private vehicles.
Given the anticipated increase in road traffic volume during the holiday, early reservations and travel preparations are highly recommended. DriveSafe PH also urges all motorists and commuters to practice caution and patience throughout this period to ensure a safe and orderly journey.
