The PNP order covers all private security personnel, security agencies, detective agencies, security training institutions, government guard units, company guard forces, and other associations.
Guards instead could ask for the visiting motorists’ valid government-issued ID instead of a driver’s license.
“In lieu thereof, the drivers of vehicles entering these properties may present any valid government-issued identification cards to said security guards. Likewise, said security guards are reminded to uphold their professional code of conduct and ethics and be courteous to everyone,” the PNP directive added.
