Long queues of vehicles at coronavirus military checkpoint in the Philippines

Drivers were stuck in long queues of vehicles waiting to pass through a military checkpoint at the border of Rizal and Quezon City, the Philippines on March 16.

The identities of each person inside the vehicles were checked one by one causing massive traffic at the border entrance.

Only those with ID cards or proofs from work are allowed to pass through.

The lock down and curfew in Manila was introduced on March 15 lasting until April 15 in an effort to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

Motorcycle rider James Ranjo was said: "The queue was stretching back for a good few kilometres.

I can only imagine how many hours the checking will last."
