A routine ride turned deadly along Gorordo Avenue corner J. Solon Drive in Cebu City on March 23, 2026, when a motorcycle driver allegedly counter-flowed and oversped, resulting in a fatal hit-and-run.

The Land Transportation Office Central Visayas (LTO 7) has issued a Show Cause Order against the driver, requiring him to appear before the LTO 7 Operations Division and submit a verified explanation addressing the allegations.

The directive comes from Regional Director Atty. Wendel C. Dinglasan as part of the agency’s mandate to enforce road safety and ensure accountability.

A hearing has been scheduled on April 16, 2026, where the respondent may present evidence in his defense.

Failure to comply will result in the case being resolved based on the evidence on record.

LTO 7 condemned reckless and irresponsible driving that endangers lives, reminding motorists that road discipline is a responsibility, not an option.

The agency urged all road users to observe traffic laws and exercise utmost caution at all times.
