ALL expired student’s permits, as well as driver’s and conductor’s licenses will remain valid until December 31, 2020, a ranking official of the Land Transporation Office (LTO) said.
This was announced by Atty. Clarence V. Guinto, Director of LTO-National Capital Region-West, following guidance from Department of Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade and Assistant Secretary and LTO Chief Edgar Galvate.

Guinto said the LTO is ready to serve the said age brackets and that senior citizens will be prioritized.
“Tama po priority natin ang ating mga senior citizens,” said Guinto.
