The initiative of the government of Marci proposes that motorcyclists circulate with high visibility vests where the patent appears.
On Friday night a group of motorcyclists armed robbery assaulted a Capital supermarket and in just 60 seconds they managed to take money, cell phones and drinks, luckily everything was registered in the security cameras and the police managed to stop them this weekend. That type of situation is what the National Government hopes to combat with a modification of the regulatory decree of Traffic to which San Juan plans to adhere once the measure announced and approved. To apply the change in the province, it is necessary to pass a law that, according to the Executive, they are willing to take forward although they assured that they still do not know the detail of the modification.
The initiative of the government is that all motorcyclists should use a reflective vest permanently and that the placard should appear on the road, either for the driver or for the case that has a companion. From Nation understand that with this measure, along with others, will manage to reduce the crimes committed by motorcycles and therefore requested their peers from each district to adhere to the initiative. Patricia Bullrich presented the proposal this weekend at the meeting of the Internal Security Council, that took place in Mendoza and where the Minister of Government of the province participated.
As explained by Emilio “one of the points to be addressed at the meeting is a modification of the regulatory decree of the National Traffic Law that should occur, the province should adhere to a law. The proposed amendment proposes that motorcycles cannot leave the dealerships without a patent and that the motorcyclists must circulate with a vest where the domain of the vehicle is registered, as well as for the companions.” In addition, the official said, “we are waiting for the details of the modification but it is feasible that we can join. I understand that the President will announce it in the next few days. ”
Currently, in San Juan there is a schedule where the use of reflective safety vest or shoulder strap is mandatory from 20 to seven in the morning, both for users of motorcycles and bikes. On the other hand, from Transit of the province they explained that today when buying a motorcycle, the concessionaires give the mobility now with the patent or with a certificate of circulation that lasts until the patenting process is finished. They also confirmed that if the amendment was approved and the law passed, there would be no problems for the implementation to be immediate.
Regarding the number of crimes that are produced by motorcycles in the province, Minister Emilio told the press yesterday that there is no established number, but in general, terms, the number of events has remained between 2015 and 2016, with the difference that last year there were more detainees.
