MANILA, Philippines — A total of 952 traffic violations were recorded on the second day of the No Contact Apprehension Policy (NCAP) reimplementation, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) said.
In a Viber message to reporters on Wednesday morning, the MMDA stated that 952 traffic violators were caught from midnight on Tuesday to midnight on Wednesday.
It is lower compared to the 1,112 traffic violations reported by the agency on the first day of NCAP on Monday.

MMDA Traffic Enforcement Group director Victor Nuñez said on Monday that the usual violations they recorded involved ignoring traffic lines, violating bus lanes, and illegal loading and unloading.
The agency, meanwhile, earlier assured the public that all NCAP violations are manually reviewed.
This is after motorists, including emergency vehicle drivers, raised concerns that many drivers now hesitate to give way to emergency responders, fearing they will be ticketed under the policy.
