Representatives of the National Center of Unified Transporters (CNTU) during the RaulASENCIO crusade
The Centro Nacional de Transportista Unificado (CNTU) held a “Crusade for Life” this past Sunday to raise awareness about the unfortunate traffic accidents that threaten the lives of Dominicans.
The guild president, Williams Perez Figuereo, expressed his regret for the daily deaths due to automobile crashes.
“I regret the drama that family members have to live through when one of their members dies or becomes bedridden as a result of this circumstance.”

President of CNTU
He added that 2 percent of the Dominican State’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is invested in covering damages generated by traffic accidents.
“It is distressing that 2% of the Gross Domestic Product is being invested in damages caused by accidents,” Figuereo emphasized.
Finally, Figuereo stated that educating drivers and transforming traditional vehicles into electric ones are measures to eradicate motorcyclist accidents.
The crusade was held in La Lira Park on Abraham Lincoln Avenue in the National District.
What about a crusade to educate transporters, owners, and administrators to place safe vehicles, compliant to regulations on the roads, not unsafe noncompliant junks.
how about mentality ?!…driving and blinding others with high beams , driving constantly slow in fast lane …everyone is in the hurry , no knowledge of traffic ? lights or signs …there is no remedy for us …regardless new or old cars .. we’re bunch of brutos …everyone here is in lala land ..
Agree. Every road trip long or short for this driver is a battle to avoid becoming a statistic. You have to have gut feelings to anticipate the behavior of road maniacs in order to survive.
gut feeling isn’t enough …? …we need to be seven headed dragons in order to register madness around us …it’s worse than Russian roulette …
Welcome to the jungle, intrant is just screenplay, but have no clue about traffic, or technical experts in vehicles or road safety. Tourist transport is where a lot of the drivers have no clue, come and have a look in punta cana
