It is clear what is stated in the official book governing the operation of public transport routes, especially in the capital city and its surroundings, regarding the speed of transport vehicles, which is limited and should not exceed 40 km per hour. ! Usually, however, many of the taxi drivers, both in and out of the city, do not respect this speed limit. There was an incident at the gate of Ampitatataki. A taxi traveling to Anosy and Alakamisy Fenoarivo complained to some passengers about the speed. Someone posted it on social media and the local National Guard immediately took responsibility to search for this illegal vehicle. The driver and his assistant were immediately arrested and the car was confiscated. “ In order to protect the lives of the passengers and to prevent them from repeating it again, these two had to be warned ยป according to the information provided by the gendarmes.
Few of the drivers of transport vehicles today realize that they are the first responsible for the lives of the many people they carry in the vehicle themselves and their assistants. At the same time, the passengers inside have a responsibility to protect their lives and the lives of the people with them. It is a fact, the passengers encourage and challenge the driver to drive faster. There are also those who pretend to be who they are or who know who they are in the car and disrespect the car’s passengers and the driver. It happened not long ago that on Sunday evening, a group of people who were already drunk touched the “receveur” and damaged the glass of the car, when they were asked to get off because the taxi was full.
