NLEX Corporation continues to empower drivers and transport operators with the fourth installment of its vital road safety initiative, the BiyaHero Road Safety Caravan last July 3 to 5, 2025, at the SMX Convention Center Manila, Pasay City, in partnership with the Philippine Commercial Vehicle Show.
Building on past successes, this year’s caravan equipped the participants with practical knowledge and preparedness, aimed to help reduce road crashes nationwide.
“The BiyaHero Road Safety Caravan is more than an annual event, it’s a commitment to saving lives,” said Luis S. Reñon, Officer-In-Charge of NLEX Corporation. “Through education, collaboration, and innovation, we hope to shape safer driving habits and help our partners become true champions of road safety,” he added.
DOTr Director IV Joshua Joseph R. Rodriguez discussed safe cargo handling and loading practices, LTO Acting Assistant Secretary Greg Pua Jr. shared insights on traffic enforcement and violations, while Shell High Risk Transport Road Safety Advisor Edward Tan and AC-1 Transport & Equipment, Inc. Senior Safety Officer Dawny Rubillo talked about journey management risk assessment.
Meanwhile, NLEX Asst. Manager for Environment, Health, and Safety Dave Bautista and the NLEX Patrol Team (Eric Cruz and Maike Lacson) discussed driver readiness and handling road emergencies with a safety-first mindset and tollway rules and regulations, respectively.
Beyond the lectures, the caravan featured interactive activities to reinforce safe driving habits. Participants tested their skills on a driving simulator equipped with safety prompts and wore drunk goggles to understand the dangers of impaired driving firsthand, turning learning into an impactful, memorable experience.
At a time when road crashes remain a serious concern, the 2025 BiyaHero Road Safety Caravan stands as an essential step forward. With focused education, innovative tools, and proactive training, NLEX Corporation remains steadfast in its mission to build safer roads and ensure every Filipino driver is “may alam at laging handa” – knowledgeable and always ready.
NLEX Corporation is a subsidiary of the Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC), the toll road arm of the Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (MPIC).
