Scores of disgruntled operators of Public Service Vehicles (PSVs) are currently meeting at the National Union of Public Workers headquarters in Dalkeith, St Michael with Director of Transport Ian Estwick and other officials.
This morning, several operators parked their vehicles as they vented their objections to the new uniform policy proposed by Transport authorities that require them to wear shirts bearing the Transport Authority logo.
These fellas just think them run things .
Government BTA doesn’t employ these people and shouldn’t make demands for them to wear a BTA logo. How Will it benefit them?
These PSVs operators need to behave as though they are educated and stop acting like wild hogs. They think they can do as they please. A damn law unto themselves. End of discussion of me!
They need to be properly regulated. Have running amok for over 25 years
These people fa real. That’s the problem right here their have no respect for themselves or the public or the law. So them to be brought back to Christian feelings one way or the other. They don’t run Barbados. So who ever tell them so fooling them. To much alcohol and smoking and disgusting music. Barbados can do better than this. We Can And we must.
I am of the opinion that these people think rules does not apply to them….
What PSV operators fail to realise is that the commuters are the persons who pay them. they should bear this in mind when commuters complain of their service and they in return ‘curse’ them and tell them to get out of their vehicle. this obviously happens because out of the entire van, only one complains of the loud, distasteful music while the silence of the others and the mouthings of others encourage the behaviour. The same way they withdrew their services, and the public still got to work, the public needs to demand better service and refuse to catch those vehicles of which the divers are despicable. Show them who’s really in control. Their withdrawal may only be felt at this time because of the state of the Transport Board. and for those like Callie who support them in their stance regarding the uniform issue. When I visit the airport I see that ALL taxis and maxi taxis operating there bear the logo suggestive of them operating at that location yet the airport does not own the taxis. Same applies at the sea port and even the QEH. The PSV operators are just an indisciplined bunch. it is high time they be made to understand that unlike what they and their supporters believe, they don’t ‘run things’.
