In a bid to crack down on illegal lorry fares, the Ministry of Transport has instructed the police to arrest drivers who are found charging exorbitant prices. This directive comes as part of a broader effort to regulate the transport sector and protect consumers from unfair pricing practices.
According to officials, drivers who are caught overcharging passengers will face immediate arrest and prosecution. The Ministry of Transport emphasized that such actions are in violation of existing regulations and will not be tolerated.
The move has been welcomed by commuters and consumer rights advocates, who have long complained about the high cost of transportation in the country. Many hope that this crackdown will lead to more transparent pricing and better protection for passengers.
The police have been urged to be vigilant and enforce the new directive effectively. It is expected that this measure will help curb the prevalence of illegal lorry fares and ensure a more equitable transport system for all.
