The Land Transportation Office (LTO) on Thursday summoned the motorcycle rider involved in a deadly crash along the Marikina-Rizal-Laguna-Quezon (Marilaque) Highway in Tanay, Rizal early this week.

The video where the rider was shown doing a “Superman stunt” went viral after his fellow rider died shortly they both figured in the accident.  

LTO chief Assistant Secretary Atty. Vigor D. Mendoza II said a show cause order (SCO) was already sent to the rider in his residence in Lipa City in Batangas. 

He was ordered to submit a written explanation as to why he should not be liable for reckless driving.

“I personally saw the video and although it was really tragic, that could have not happened if they just chose to be responsible motorcycle riders,” Mendoza said in a statement. 

“But there will be a hearing on this case as part of the due process and I expect the rider to explain well since what is at stake here is the privilege given to him by the government to ride a motorcycle.”

The stunt was done along a public road and left least six other road users injured. 

The rider, who was also reported as a motovlogger, was identified as one of the two riders who “recklessly or without reasonable caution and regard for the safety of others performed unsafe maneuvers.”
