A news feature on the Philippine News Agency (PNA) highlights individuals like Anna Fe Peralta, a 46-year-old mother of four who is one of only two female tricycle drivers in her group in Quezon City. Her story reflects a broader trend: women are increasingly taking on this work to supplement family income, support their husbands, and assert their economic independence. These women are not just drivers; they are "Queens of the Road," as one article from the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) dubs them, dominating the highways in their municipalities.
