DOTr USec. Tuazon on new distance protocol: So far, wala naman pong problema but katulad po ng pagpapatupad ng ibang alituntunin natin may kaunting adjustment period lang po sa mga public transport vehicles
DOTr USec. Tuazon: Maraming studies ang nagawa po riyan, 'di lang sa atin, pati sa ibang bansa.
DOTr USec. Tuazon: Ang isinama pa nating ipinapatupad ay 'yung bawal na mag-usap sa loob ng pampublikong sasakyan. Bawal na rin pong mag-cellphone at bawal pong kumain sa loob
DOTr USec. Tuazon: Sa eroplano po, wala pong masyadong mababago
DOTr USec. Tuazon: Ang ginagawa lang po sa kanila, 'yung last 3 rows ng eroplano ay hindi pinasasakyan para ito po ang magiging isolation area kung sakali mang may mag-develop ng symptoms within the flight
DOTr USec. Tuazon: Ang ginawa po ng International Union of Railways, tiningnan lahat ng experience po ng mga iba't-ibang bansa na member. Nakita nila na hindi sa public transportation, hindi sa railway system nagmumula ang transmission.

DOTr USec. Tuazon: Hindi lang natin basta tinatanggal ang social distancing, marami tayong inimplement na protocol diyan.
DOTr USec. Tuazon on provincial buses: Inaayos na po ng LTFRB iyan. I think within the week ay maglalabas na ang LTFRB ng guidelines para riyan.
DOTr USec. Tuazon: Ang LTFRB po ay ina-analyze po ang mga ruta na 'yan regularly. Tinitingnan po kung nasaan ang highest demand at iyon po ang pina-priotitize nila
DOTr USec. Tuazon: Sa ngayon po, wala pong pinapapayagan ang LTFRB na pagtaas ng pamasahe.
DOTr USec. Tuazon: Tuloy-tuloy po iyan. 'Yan po ang commitment ni Sec. Tugade na tuloy-tuloy po naming ibibigay ang free shuttle for health workers
