The MMDA has announced that armored cars, who are among the most frequent violators of traffic rules, are not exempt from the ban on using the yellow lanes and has ordered the agency's traffic enforcers to go after them should they be caught violating this rule. Drivers of armored cars usually use security as an excuse, citing that they are carrying large amounts of cash and are prone to being ambushed. But MMDA chairman Bayani Fernando advises that they should just beef up on security escorts to protect themselves.
Hah! Armored cars are just as bad as those plain clothed escorts that politicians use, driving like assholes and often leaving the "scene of the crime" should they figure into an accident. But enforcers might be hesitant in apprehending these vehicles as they might just end up looking at the barrel of a gun poking out of those gun ports. Barilan na!

Saw this vehicle (is it one of those old Toyota FJ-40's?) on EDSA earlier this evening. Walang plaka sa likod.Kasama 'ata nung dalawang armored car, nasa gitna kasi nila.

Still some more examples of vehicles that have license plate problems, all taken on the same day.
This Escape has a tinted plate cover in front but none on the back. A pretty obvious attempt to avoid being caught during his coding days.This next one shows a Corolla with the ever-present partially covered plate at the back.
This St. Clair Security & Investigation Agency, Inc. armored car had not plate at all.
And this Corolla had no plate in front. Again, another obvious coding avoidance move.
