What is Calalang v. Williams (70 Phil. 726) about?

The Supreme Court of the Philippines ruled that the prohibition of animal-drawn vehicles from certain national roads does not violate constitutional principles of social justice and general welfare. The Court emphasized that the measure aimed to ease traffic congestion and promote public safety, balancing the interests of carromata drivers with the needs of the general public. Consequently, the prohibition was deemed a valid exercise of police power under the 1935 Constitution.
