Conduction Stickers — issued under AO No. AO-DIR 001 shall be used exclusively for the transfer, road test, and demonstration of stocks by manufacturers and dealers including delivery of the unit to the customer by a professional driver employed by manufacturer, assembler, importer or dealer so authorized in writing, NOT by the owner or his driver. The Conduction Sticker's validity ceases when the unit is delivered to the owner. It is NOT A PERMIT to operate an UNREGISTERED vehicle for 7 days in violation of Sec. 5 of R.A. 4136 which is punishable with a penalty of P450 for the driver and P900 for the owner under DOTC Order No. 93-693 and impoundment until the vehicle is registered and penalties paid accordingly.
