Guangzhou Daily (all-media reporter Li Chuanzhi, correspondent Li Shulian) Yesterday, reporters learned from the Foshan Municipal Transportation Department that during the Spring Festival, highway passenger traffic rebounded across the board and showed a continued growth trend, especially in areas with concentrated passenger flow and during peak hours. At this time, a small number of illegal passenger transport operators took advantage of the situation and brought potential risks to road traffic safety. In order to purify the road passenger transportation market and create a safe and orderly travel environment, the Foshan Municipal Transportation Bureau has guided transportation departments at all levels to join forces with the Foshan Public Security and Traffic Police Department to be ready and go all out to carry out the city's road traffic "Spring Thunder" special rectification operation and carry out heavy rectification. Illegal and illegal operation of passenger transport, overcrowding of buses, fatigue driving, failure to wear seat belts and other illegal and illegal behaviors.
In the past few days, the Chancheng Comprehensive Law Enforcement Detachment of the Foshan Municipal Transportation Bureau has deployed additional law enforcement forces during the Spring Festival to strengthen the investigation and punishment of illegal activities in the field of road passenger transportation, and make every effort to ensure that citizens have a "safe way home" during the Spring Festival. At noon on February 1, the Chancheng Comprehensive Law Enforcement Detachment carried out a passenger transport rectification operation in the section surrounding the Centenary Deli Building on Haiwu West Road in Chancheng District and found a Gui E brand red large bus stopping on the roadside to pick up passengers. Law enforcement officers immediately conducted a law enforcement inspection of the vehicle in accordance with the law. Through comparison and verification through the law enforcement system, the vehicle's operating qualifications have been cancelled.
After further investigation, it was found that the large bus carried 49 passengers from Guangzhou and Foshan to Xuwen, Zhanjiang, and charged each passenger a freight fee ranging from 150 yuan to 170 yuan, even though a Guangxi automobile transportation company to which the bus belonged had a legal road passenger transport operating license , but the operating qualification of the vehicle has been cancelled, and it is suspected of using a vehicle that does not hold a legal and valid "Road Transport Certificate" to participate in passenger transport operations. In order to effectively ensure the safety of passengers, law enforcement officials urged the company to coordinate and arrange legal and compliant vehicles to transfer passengers, and during the waiting period, they publicized transportation laws and regulations to drivers and passengers to guide law-abiding and safe travel. At around 14:00, the transfer of 49 passengers was completed safely and smoothly.
Next, Foshan's transportation department will continue to focus on the overall goal of "safe, smooth and heart-warming" Spring Festival transportation, severely crack down on transportation violations, and provide solid transportation law enforcement guarantees for people to travel safely, smoothly, and conveniently.
