LOOK: DOTr releases reminders about #inmyfeelingschallenge

This is the new viral sensation going around online called #inmyfeelingschallenge. The challenge started when Instagram user theshiggyshow posted about it. On June 29, theshiggyshow shared a video of himself dancing in the street and using moves that perfectly synced up to Drake’s lyrics.

When Drake sang, “Kiki, do you love me?” he made a heart gesture with his hands, and he made a driving motion with his arms for the “Are you riding?” line of the song.

This became a viral sensation as other people online followed suit.

With the dangers of doing this alongside a moving vehicle, the Department of Transportation released reminders about the #inmyfeelingschallenge.

Anong mas patok sayo? Yung MAKIUSO o ang KALIGTASAN MO?

Mga friends, bago mag-balak na mag #inmyfeelingschallenge, isipin muna ang ilang tips para masigurong ang iyong pakikiuso ay hindi makapagdudulot ng SAKUNA o PERWISYO!

However, the announcement might have misinterpreted by some. People thought that the DOTr was promoting the said viral challenge.

The DOTr clarified that they are not promoting the said challenge.

PAGLILINAW SA PUBLIKO:

Hindi po hinihikayat ng DOTr ang pagsasagawa ng #InMyFeelingsChallenge.

Hindi man po namin mapipigilan ang lahat sa kanilang “expression of feelings”, tandaan na bawal po itong gawin sa mga kalsada, lalung-lalo na kung umaandar ang sasakyan at ikaw ang drayber!

Paalala, ang Land Transportation Office (LTO) at iba pang Law Enforcement agencies ay manghuhuli sa mga gumagawa ng challenge sa mga pampublikong daan. Ito po ay maituturing na uri ng reckless driving, at posibleng ma-revoke ang kanilang mga driver’s license.

Isa pa, mahigpit na paalala na ang paggamit ng cellphone o kahit anong video recording device habang nagmamaneho ay isang paglabag sa Republic Act 10913 o Anti-Distracted Driving Act. PhP5,000 hanggang PhP15,000 ang multa sa mga maaaktuhang gumagawa nito.

Siguraduhin na ang iyong pakikiuso ay hindi makapagdudulot ng SAKUNA o PERWISYO! Be safe, and not reckless!
