The Senate Transportation and Telecommunications Commission will be in charge of studying the project that modifies the Transit Law, establishing the obligation to report and execute safety actions on intercity and interregional buses.

Specifically, it is proposed that, “in intercity and interregional buses and before the trip, the transport service provider must inform passengers of the security measures that must be implemented during the trip, obliging them to execute such instructions in order to to effectively protect the life and health of people.”

The authors specify that our legislation includes several regulatory precepts responsible for regulating passenger transportation; However, “to our knowledge, there is no clear regulation regarding the prevention of accidents or at least the need for passengers, the driver and assistants to take appropriate precautions to protect their health once morest the occurrence of these cases.” .

Along these lines, they indicate that the motion promotes filling a legislative void and, therefore, “enshrining rules that encourage legislation on the matter to be more efficient.”
