Everyone needs to know that transport companies not only have drivers shortage because there is no drivers but because they do not pay decent wages and work conditions are absolutely a disgrace. Many drivers retired, left the country or decided not to driver anymore bacause of the reseanos.

The need of these rules ar absolutely urgent.
