Quick guide: How to get a copy of your Manila City no-contact apprehension NOV via email

There are a lot of inquiries about no-contact apprehensions on the road right now, especially with Quezon City launching the full implementation of its no-contact apprehension program (NCAP) effective July 1, 2022. We have the full explainer for that here, as well as a quick guide listing the 15 intersections equipped with traffic cameras.

In case you didn’t know, no-contact apprehensions are carried out using traffic cameras and surveillance tech that capture photos of traffic violators’ vehicles and license plates. The registered owner of a vehicle caught by the system is pulled from the database, and a notice of violation (NOV) is generated and sent to the registered owner.
