Ni-revoke na ng Land Transportation Office (LTO) ang driver’s license ng aktres at dating beauty queen na si Maria Isabel Lopez dahil sa paggamit nito sa Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) lane sa EDSA nitong Nobyembre 11.

After the viral video on Facebook and Instagram that she removed divider cones on Edsa and used the ASEAN Lanes to avoid heavy traffic on Saturday, November 11, 2017, the Land Transportation Office (LTO) ordered Ms. Maria Isabel Lopez, an actress and beauty queen, to appear at the LTO's Office of the Director on Thursday, November 16, 2017 at 10:00am. Together with her lawyer, Ms. Maria Isabel Lopez personally appears at the office and explains to Director Francis Ray A. Almora, CESO VI on what happened on that issue. (Kevin Tristan Espiritu)

Bukod dito, binawalan din si Lopez na mag-apply at kumuha ng lisensiya sa susunod na dalawang taon.

VP Sara, tahasang iginiit na hindi niya binoto si Romuadlez

Ang desisyon ng LTO ay batay na rin sa rekomendasyon ng Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) nang gamitin ni Lopez ang ASEAN lane na para sa mga delegado ng Summit, upang makaiwas sa matinding trapiko sa EDSA.

Pinagmumulta rin si Lopez ng kabuuang P8,000 sa tatlong traffic violations: P5,000 sa paglabag sa Anti-Distracted Driving Act, P1,500 sa pagbalewala sa traffic sign, at P1,500 sa reckless driving.

Matatandaang nag-post pa si Lopez sa social media ng litrato at video ng ginawa niyang pag-alis sa mga divider cone para makaharurot sa ASEAN lane.
