The filing of Rivière-du-Rempart was Wednesday afternoon boil. At least fifty drivers and receivers were massed at the entrance of the deposit. One has more than twenty buses that need to be repaired.
"The violations stressing us! We can no longer stand the pressure! The buses are in poor condition and asked us to leave. We are paying the consequences later, "thundered drivers. One of them explains that one day, a driver received two tickets due to mechanical problems with the bus. "We can no longer accept out buses even with minor problems. We have often done, but now it is too much, "say these drivers frustrated.
We have witnessed the return of a bus. "There was an oil leak and the police told us to return the deposit" suggests the driver. The ten passengers did not hide his displeasure. "Always there is a problem with the NTC? No sooner had we left the station we had to go back. Managers must know what they want, while taking into account the safety of all, "said one of the passengers.
The reaction of the passengers caused some unease among drivers and receivers. "This is what we must endure. We have to accept that the public is upon us as we are not the cause of these problems! "Said one of the drivers.
However, these employees NTC say they fear retaliation. "We now fear that there are punitive transfers or retaliation because we say what is really going on. The authorities must react quickly, because they are passengers who pay the consequences with the condition of the bus. How long will we pay for damaged or broken doors seats? "They unleash.
The director of the NTC and the depot of Riviere du Rempart were unreachable for a reaction.
