COMPLAINT-AFFIDAVIT

I, JAMES JEFFERSON S. TAN, of legal age, married, Filipino

and a resident of B-1 High Street Grace Village, Santo Domingo,
Quezon City, Metro Manila, after being sworn to in accordance with
law, depose and state that:

1. Sometime around 4:00p.m. in the afternoon of June 12, 2020

in Quezon City, specifically along Santo Domingo Street,
RACHELLE ANGELIQUE ONG, to be hereinafter referred to as
the Accused, who is a resident of 690 Banawe Street, Quezon
City being then the driver of a maroon colored Isuzu
Crosswind with plate number TIB 166, did then and there
willfully, unlawfully and feloniously drive, manage and operate
the same in a reckless, careless, negligent and imprudent
manner, without regard to traffic laws, rules and regulations,
and without taking the necessary care and precaution to avoid
damage to property, causing by such negligence, carelessness
and imprudence the said vehicle to collide violently and head
on with Toyota Hi-Lux bearing plate number NDI 1588 driven
by my driver, RAMIL L. VILLAFLOR thereby causing damage to
latter vehicle which would require repair estimated at
P500,000.00.

A copy of the Toyota Hi Lux Original Receipt and Certificate of

Registration is hereby attached as ANNEX ”A” and “A-1”,
respectively. A copy of the damages incurred by my vehicle are
hereby attached as ANNEX “B”, “B-1”, and “B-2”, and made
an integral; part hereof. A copy of the repair quotation is
hereby attached as ANNEX ”C”;
2. Due to the ongoing COVid-19 pandemic and my driver living
in my residence as a stay-in driver, I secured the services of
legal counsel in order for the him to execute his written
statement under oath regarding the accident that took place
on June 12, 2020, instead of going to the the Balintawak
Traffic Management Sector 1. As contained in said affidavit
and going back to what had transpired, I was riding in the
passenger seat on our way home when nearing Calamba
Street, we noticed the vehicle driven by the Accused crossed
over to our lane at a great speed which made my driver swerve
further to the right to avoid a head-on collision.

A copy of the Affidavit of Accident is hereby attached as

ANNEX “D” and made an integral part of this complaint.;

3. The impact of collision threw my vehicle to the curb, almost

turning it turtle, rendering both doors on the left hand side
stuck. Digital copies of the Closed Circuit TeleVision (CCTV) of
Barangay Santo Domingo, the onboard dash cam video, and
screenshot of the vehicle of the accused seconds before impact
are hereby attached as ANNEX “E”, “E-1” and “E-2”, saved
respectively in the Universal Serial Bus (USB) drive enclosed
with this complaint-affidavit and made an integral part hereof;

4. Therefore, the acts of the Accused of sudden acceleration,

wrongful veering that resulted to counter-flowing, and the
clear failure to stop her car clearly establish the reckless and
imprudent manner of driving her vehicle. Indeed, Accused,
being a licensed driver, should have ensured that driving in
the right lane and maintaining a reasonable speed which she
failed to do so, are expected of in an ordinary driving scenario
as shown in the video files of the incident;
 5. On June 20, 2020, I have secured services of legal counsel to
prepare and serve upon the Accused a demand letter on her
registered address. The same was received by Raymart Ong,
the older brother of the Accused.

A copy of the said demand letter is hereby attached as ANNEX

“E” and made an integral part hereof;

6. On June 22, 2020, my legal counsel received an SMS message

from the cellphone number of the Accused asking for a phone
call and it was the father of the Accused (Mr. Ong) who tried to
talk the matter out, but ultimately ended in disagreement for
reasons totally unrelated to the complaint for reckless
imprudence;

7. I am therefore executing this Complaint-Affidavit in support of

the charges for Reckless Imprudence Resulting in Damage to
Property against the said Accused.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this

_____________ at _____________, Philippines.

that I am fully satisfied that he has voluntarily executed and
understood the contents of his Complaint-Affidavit.
