| The General Minibus Association of Guyana (GMAG) has said that it will be dispatching a letter today to Minister of Home Affairs, Clement Rohee, petitioning him to make some adjustments in the police stance towards music in minibuses and hire cars and the stickers on the vehicles.The association had called a meeting of hire-car and minibus operators and owners on Sunday last at the Square of the Revolution to discuss the concerns the operators had in relation to the new regulations set to be enacted in the near future.Paramount among the concerns of the operators is the prohibition of playing loud music in minibuses and hire cars.President of GMAG, Lylon Weithers,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping, said that there was contention over the fact that minibus operators were being asked to remove their sound systems from their vehicles. Under the newly amended laws these music systems can be present, but they cannot be used while the vehicle is plying its route, or when parked in a public place.Previously, there was contention over the fact that minibus operators were being asked to remove their sound systems from their vehicles. This is no longer necessary.This amended law also governs the use of video equipment in minibuses and hire cars.However, the GMAG President said that the association wanted to move to petition that minibuses and hire cars be allowed to keep radio sets and panel speakers in their vehicles.“If there was a national emergency, and there was need to reach the public, the best way to do so is via the radio. Because of this, we need to keep radios in minibuses so that the population can be reached,” said Weithers.Meanwhile the minibus operators, much to their relief, were told that the Guyana Police Force has extended the deadline by which minibuses owners and operators have to remove all signage and slogans from their vehicles to March 15.Previously, the police had said that these signs needed to be removed by February 15 last.Minibus operators who have not yet removed the signage and slogans from their vehicles said that they were grateful for the extension.The operators also cited the presence of the sun visor on the minibuses would make driving much easier for them. The police describe some of them as stickers.GMAG representatives said that they would petition the Minister to allow a six-inch visor to remain on the minibus. They said that they had no problem removing all of the other stickers from the minibuses.During the meeting, minibus operators that ply Route 32 (Georgetown/Parika) and Route 42 (Georgetown/Timehri) took the opportunity to raise the issue of minibuses (on the same route as them) which do not wait in line for their turn to load, but instead run the ‘hot plate.’Advisor to the President of the General Minibus Association (GMBA), Hilbert Archer, said that the Association would look into the matter. This, he added, would also be included in the letter being sent to the Home Affairs Minister. |
