School Vans Without License: Contraventions

After the recent debates on school vans as a result of road accidents, and lack of driver aides, the inspectors work hard on the ground. They sensitize drivers of vans as they descend and check if they operate within the rules.

The Minister of Public Infrastructure, Anil Bachoo, advance it "will no gift to those who violate the law. Guidelines were given to the NTA and we will be merciless. We allow time for drivers to make every rule because no one will be spared thereafter. "That's what we told the Minister Bachoo.

Principal Inspector of the NTA, Beeharry Bissessur, believes it has not yet official figures on the number of violations recorded. "Our inspectors are present near elementary schools. Despite the lack of staff, the work is done. Vans without license were taken in violation, "he said. Some "brown vans" would have passed the word to escape the microscope.

According to Inspector of the NTA, they recover more students outside the school. "We noticed that in many cases the vans that operate without permits school vans put themselves aside and take the children away. But this will continue. We have an eye on everything going on, "let he heard.

Until the law is applied properly, the inspectors of the NTA are involved in sensitization. "We warn the drivers that do not have an assistant driver to do the necessary as soon as possible. We have been lenient with those, but not for long, "he ton. The committee of school vans is, in turn, supports the strong presence of police and officers of the NTA. The committee chair, Nazir Jungee, does not hide his appreciation.

"This is something very positive to see that officers and the police are on the ground. Many drivers were sensitized to help find a driver before the application of the law. "Our party does not hold back his words about the fact that many drivers can not afford an assistant driver. "Many of them do not have many students, and the money they earn is not enough to pay another person. It is time that the government order in this whole story, "protested he.

The chair of school vans are also angry at the "slowness" of the NTA to provide permits. It is estimated that this would encourage the vans to operate in inequality. "We urge the Minister to meet with urgency so that we can make a consensus, and he can hear what we have to say," he said.
