Evaluating the effectiveness of PNP checkpoints in crime prevention in Iligan City
Statement of the problem
Checkpoints have been a key component of the Philippine National Police's (PNP) crime prevention
strategies in recent years. The necessity to critically assess checkpoints' efficacy in accomplishing the
main objective of lowering and discouraging criminal activity persists despite their extensive
deployment. Many unanswered questions surround PNP checkpoint operations' effects on general
crime rates, the kinds of crimes that are averted, and the opinions of the community and law

and improving security by methodically examining the critical factors influencing checkpoint efficacy
and taking into account the perspectives of various stakeholders, including law enforcement, local
communities, and individuals passing through checkpoints.

rates.

Investigating the practices and implications of obtaining a driver's license with fixers
The practices of getting a driver's license with fixer assistance have become increasingly problematic
in recent years. This phenomenon raises serious concerns about the integrity of the licensing process,
possible compromises in road safety, and the general legitimacy of the drivers involved. Although
anecdotal evidence points to a widespread reliance on fixers, there is a dearth of thorough research
analyzing the particular practices used by fixers, their effects on road safety, and the wider
implications for the regulatory framework. This study attempts to fill these gaps by methodically
examining the strategies, incentives, and outcomes related to getting a driver's license with fixers,
illuminating the scope of the problem.
Objectives
● Investigate the speed and efficiency of the licensing process with fixer assistance compared
to traditional methods.
● Assess the potential consequences of expedited licensing on road safety and regulatory
compliance.
● Propose recommendations for improving the efficiency of the licensing system without
compromising integrity.
Research questions
● Drivers who used fixers:
1.What are the primary motivations for individuals seeking the assistance of fixers in
obtaining a driver's license?
2.How do individuals describe their experiences throughout the process of obtaining a
license with fixer assistance?
● Former fixers:
1.What specific services do fixers offer to individuals seeking assistance in obtaining a driver's
license?
2.How do fixers navigate the official licensing procedures on behalf of their clients?
● Legal experts:(LTO’s)
