Trucks ordered to drive only on the right
Digesett agents will be ensuring as of Friday, 17 January 2019 that truckers adhere to driving exclusively in the right lane on avenues and highways. Trucks and cargo vehicles are also now limited to driving at 70kph on highways and at a maximum of 55kph on other roads. The new ruling for Transit Law 63-17 establishes heavy fines for violation of these measures. The spokesman for Digesett, Hillman Pimentel said that the transit body would be using radars to control the speed limits. The cargo vehicles are also mandated to keep a distance of 150 meters from the vehicle in front of them. The fines are equal to two minimum decentralized public sector wages.
