Enforcement is the key
Dear Editor,
The headline, ‘Minibus drivers can be charged for not having a conductor-GPF’ (GT May 27), is instructive. But what of the bus owners, don’t they have a responsibility to ensure the operation of their buses comply with the law?
For too long buses plying routes operate without conductors as a money saving mechanism. The police knows buses operate without conductors but nothing is done to enforce the law. So the breach goes merrily on.
Of course licenses, attire and hygiene are another matter.
Like everything enforcement is the key. That is known. But who cares? Certainly not the bus owner or driver
Sincerely,
Shamshun Mohamed
