Public Transport In Venezuela.

#history
PART I: THE REINVENTION OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION.
The city of Maracaibo is one of the main cities in Venezuela. However, this does not exempt it from deficiencies in different services such as public transport. Unlike other countries with an evolving transport system, ours is in decline.
Due to the crisis, transport units have been disappearing, or are increasingly damaged by a lack of automotive spare parts. Although the regional government inserted units to alleviate this problem, they have also ceased to serve for the same cause.
To "overcome" this situation, the Venezuelan has made an arbitrary reinvention of urban transport: Flip trucks and stakes, yes, as well as reading it, also, pick-up pickup trucks are incorporated day by day to the routes most demanded by users of the city.
It is already common to see on the main avenues, how passengers approach vehicles totally unsuited for urban transport. Without due control of the authorities, dozens of cargo trucks add to the most affected routes. Pick-up vans that, without being integrated into formal transport lines, pick up passengers on longer routes, carry so much excess cargo that passengers literally hang from their railings.

One modality that is as curious as it is dangerous for regular passenger transport is the use of children's trains, which are designed for short rides at special events. At least two of these little trains have become a very grateful alternative for the inhabitants of this city. It may be counted and not believed, but this is the daily reality of many Venezuelans.

Actually, it must be returned to consciousness. Sometimes what we consider to be a solution is not the most appropriate thing.
