Tagbilaran City, Bohol (Holy Tricycles)
After watching the report of Marc Logan in TV Patrol about the tricycles in Tagbilaran City being posted with verses and sayings about religion, this makes me think if this will be followed by the different local government in the Philippines, there might be less road accidents. They said that this is one of the requirements for the city government to issue license for them to drive around the city.
Tagbilaran City is the gateway to Bohol, where you can find Chocolate Hills that is composed of hundreds of small mountain and their main tourist attraction. It can be reached though ship, fast craft and airplane. Many foreigners and local tourists visit this place annually making it as one of the most competitive cities in the Philippines.
In the report, Marc Logan asked the tricycle drivers if they can understand what the verses all about, some answered correctly and some failed. Although not all really understand why they are required to post such verses in the tricycles, some of them understand. This means that with the risks surrounding one when travelling, one can expect at least the driver is always guided by the Lord therefore less chance that mishaps might happen while on the road.
