Antonio Marte, director of the National Transport Confederation (CONATRA), including cars, minibuses, buses and city and intercity buses, said that "a driver from Puerto Plata, Valverde, Restoration, Miches or Pedernales is made difficult to go to a school in Santo Domingo after paying hotels and pay for the course as well. "In response, the teacher asks where they go.
Carlos Peña, head of the ENEVIAL, which will shortly be announcing plans to work with drivers freight transport. In that sense, Blas Peralta, president of the Dominican National Transport Federation (FENATRAN), as reported is 57 000 truckers, says the classes "were doing in turn, by institution, CONATRA, Fenatrano. .., and has not reached our turn.
