Project amnesty fines truckers who joined the strike

The truckers who participated in the category strike in 2015 may have their fines pardoned by the government. This is what determines the Bill of the Chamber (PLC 5/2015, which should be voted soon in the Commission of Constitution, Justice and Citizenship of the Senate (CCJ).

According to the Senate Agency, the proposal grants truck drivers who participated in the movements the pardon for fines applied nationwide from February 18 to March 2, 2015. The text does not address the demonstrations held in June this year.

According to the proposal, the fines will be forgiven for parking on the road, at the roadsides, at intersections or for preventing the movement of another vehicle, as well as blocking the road with the vehicle. The proposal, however, limits amnesty for vehicles classified as truck, trailer or semi-trailer, tractor horse, wheel tractor, track tractor and mixed tractor.
