The Land Transportation Office (LTO) has strongly condemned all forms of fixing activities, warning that employees found involved will face administrative and criminal charges and possible dismissal from service.

In a statement, the agency stressed that there is “no room for fixers” within the LTO system, urging the public to avoid engaging with individuals offering illegal assistance in exchange for money and to transact only through proper channels.

“Fixers will be dealt with to the full extent of the law,” the LTO said, adding that any personnel proven to be involved will be held accountable under both administrative and criminal proceedings.

In an initial advisory, Asec. Markus Lacanilao reiterated the agency’s firm stance against fixing activities, saying such illegal practices undermine public trust and compromise the integrity of government services.

He assured that the LTO will continue sustained and proactive enforcement operations to deter fixers and protect the public from fraudulent transactions.

As part of its crackdown, four individuals were arrested during an anti-fixing operation conducted on April 10 at the LTO-NCR office.

Following the operation, the LTO chief ordered the dismissal of employees allegedly linked to the fixing activities, underscoring the agency’s commitment to clean governance and accountability.

The LTO reiterated its warning to the public not to transact with fixers and to follow official procedures for all licensing and registration services.
