Jet ski rider goes missing in Anilao Sea, Batangas

Jet ski rider goes missing in Anilao Sea, Batangas


A fun vacation of young professionals was suddenly put to a halt when one of their friends went missing after his jet ski malfunctioned at Anilao Sea, Batangas friday afternoon.

Timothy Roy Condino, 22, his brother Stephene Roy Condino, cousin Dante Cardines and friends Roel Santos and Jeff Nodalo Capuz were on board two jet skis going to Sombrero island when Timothy's jet ski conked out at around 3:30 p.m.

Condino said Cardines, Santos and Capuz then decided to go back to their resthouse on board one jet ski, leaving Timothy alone in the sea, to get a rope to haul Timothy's jet ski.

However, when they returned to the area where they left Timothy, he was nowhere to be found.

They immediately reported the incident to the local police and the Philippine Coast Guard, which subsequently conducted a search and rescue operation until Friday evening, but failed to find Timothy.

On Saturday morning, authorities conducted an aerial rescue search and said they sighted a jet ski along the shore in Balayan.

But when Condino's group went to Balayan, the jet ski was not there. They later received information that the jet ski had been retrieved in San Luis near Alitagtag.

As of Saturday afternoon, Timothy remains missing. Search and rescue operation continues. (Source: ABS-CBN News)

What the LTO says about changing mag wheels, rims and tires of your car, motorcycle

The new LTO PMVIC, or the Land Transportation Office - Private Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers, has started operations in some parts of the country for inspections of cars and motorcycles due for registration renewal. Dubbed as MVIS (Motor Vehicle Inspection System), it aims to test the roadworthiness of private and commercial vehicles prior to their registration. This also includes the checking of modifications, upgrades and accessories that have been installed on your vehicles - whether factory or aftermarket. If they don't meet LTO standards, you fail the test. Failing the MVIS test means you have to retake the inspection and worse, you can't register your vehicle any more. For purposes of discussion, I chose to talk about wheels and tires because they are the most frequently modified parts of our cars and motorcycles. Now comes the question: Is it considered illegal to replace your wheels with aftermarket mag wheels? Can those u...

We’ve all felt that subtle sting of anxiety when cruising through a Metro Manila intersection under the watchful lenses of No Contact Apprehension cameras. Did I cross the stop line?
