Van of Paul Artadi damaged by an armored truck
PAUL ARTADI – The former PBA player-now-San Juan City councilor expressed his disappointment after an armored truck damaged his van.
In a video, Artadi questioned why the people inside the armored truck had difficulty getting out after the incident. He showed his damaged van, acknowledging that it was fortunate that the damage was not severe, but he was still upset. However, after some time, the people inside the armored truck finally exited and handed Artadi a piece of paper with a contact number, indicating that the company owning the armored truck was willing to pay for the damage.
Some netizens explained to Artadi that the people inside the armored truck were not allowed to immediately exit the vehicle due to standard operating procedures (SOPs) followed by such companies, especially when transporting large amounts of money. They mentioned that the people inside the truck needed authorization before they could leave the vehicle, as they were carrying valuable assets.
Netizens also pointed out that Artadi could use his own insurance to cover the repairs, as the armored truck company would likely reimburse the expenses, but it was standard protocol for them to handle such situations in a certain manner.

SOP sa armoed van personnels ang hindi basta basta lalabas ng van dahil malaking pera ang dala nila. Baka mga holdaper ang sakay ng kotse at ambush lang pagkabangga. For security reasons iyun. Hindi ba alam ni Konsi yun?
