TAXI DRIVERS STILL COMPLAIN

Social


Individual taxi drivers say that the National Assembly did not give a complete and adequate response to their appeal/protest after their letter sent to the NA Chairman presenting their demands.


According to them, they informed the NA that the best they could do was to not apply restrictions for cars that are more than 15 years old, but the government’s conditions remain the same.


The RA government passed a resolution to put a ban on the use of cars that are over 10 years old and proposed taxi drivers to work as individual entrepreneurs or work for taxi services. Taxi drivers are not satisfied with the requirements because on the one hand, their cars are over 10 years old and on the other hand, they say that the tax is too high.


Taxi drivers also sent a letter to the RA President, but they don’t know if they will receive a response or not.


NA “Heritage” faction Deputy Larisa Alaverdyan informed taxi drivers that the transportation inspectorate of the RA Transportation Ministry will not be too strict with them yet.


Let us remind that transportation inspectors have started working with road police to register violations.
