Judicial
notice could be taken of the travel time by car from San Pedro, Laguna to Pasig
City, Metro Manila, because it is capable of unquestionable demonstration, and
nowadays is already of public knowledge, especially to commuters. The Supreme
Court therefore found no error in the trial court’s finding that it was not
impossible for petitioner to be at the scene of the crime, despite his alibi
that he was engaged in intelligence work in San Pablo Laguna that same
afternoon of October 19, 1990. (Vergara vs. People [2002]).
