"Kahit noong ako’y nanunungkulan pa bilang kinatawan ng Ako Bicol Party-list, hindi ako gumagamit ng special plates,” he said.
(Even when I was still Ako Bicol Party-list representative, I never used special plates.)
Co asked the MMDA to conduct a deep investigation on the incident and hold accountable those proven to have violated traffic rules.
