Hindi inaakala ng matandang tricycle driver na ito na sa kabila ng kanyang katandaan na ganyan pa ang gagawin ng pasahero.


Tricycles are a common sight on the streets of the Philippines. It is one of the most prevalent and convenient modes of transportation in the country. The fare is a lot cheaper compared to hailing a cab. The drivers of the said vehicles face danger every day. Larger cars can hit them at any moment. A netizen shared the unfortunate fate of a senior citizen who drives a tricycle despite his old age.

A certain senior citizen caught a netizen’s reaction. He was sitting on thin cardboard. He also sleeps in the same spot. However, the senior citizen had not always been a beggar. He used to be a tricycle driver. Apparently, one of his passengers stole his motorcycle. As a result, he began asking for money on the sidewalk.

Driving his tricycle was the only way the old man knew to make a living. The person he tried to help took away one of his prized possessions. The old man couldn’t help feeling devastated.According to the netizen who shared the story, the senior citizen said, “Wala na ung motor ako anak ninakaw. Niloko ako nung tinulungan ko pra maihatid siya ayun pla kukunin nila ung tricycle ko.”

Meanwhile, after the netizen talked to him, the poor old man could not help but become emotional. The social media user said that the thief was heartless for taking something so important from a defenseless senior citizen.However, the only detail shared about the missing tricycle was its color which is green. Moreover, the netizen asked if anyone does see the vehicle, they should report it. Still, the Facebook user hopes the old man gets it back.
