The implementation of the single ticketing system will start in April, he said.
Under the single ticketing system, all cities and municipalities across NCR will have unified policies and penalties for 20 common traffic violations.
Among the traffic violations included disregarding traffic signs, illegal parking (attended and unattended), reckless driving, driving without a license, driving an unregistered vehicle, overspeeding, illegal counterflow, number coding violations, and obstruction.
