Bosita came into public attention in March 2021, when he was featured in a viral video where he disputes a Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) traffic enforcer's action of filing a ticket against a couple driving in tandem on a motorcycle for breaking a shoes-only policy – while the driver was wearing shoes the backseat woman passenger was penalized for wearing slippers causing her to miss a day of work. Bosita believing that the policy should only apply to the driver made the enforcer pay a day's worth of the backseat passenger's salary (around ). This led to MMDA traffic czar Edison Bong Nebrija to respond alleging Bosita of exploiting traffic enforcers for political gain.
