OUTGOING Senate president Vicente Sotto 3rd said on Thursday that the Philippine National Police (PNP) should subject the owner of a sports utility vehicle (SUV) that ran over a security guard early this month to a comprehensive drug test.

'Please tell the PNP and the lawyer of the 'Hit and Run Run Over' driver they must follow RA (Republic Act) 10586, the Anti- Drunk and Drugged Driving Law,' Sotto told Senate reporters.
