But what about the standees on the independent buses? Well, the CEO in the Ministry said they will be cracking down on those too.

Chester Williams, CEO, Ministry of Transport

"Indeed standees is an enforcement issue and through the department of transport we are working on that. I have said to the CTO that we need to conduct more strategic operations geared at targeting these buses that continue to target standees. The law is clear that if it is you have standees then the driver can be issued a ticket. the ticket is going to cost more than what the standees are going to pay. so we're hoping that by enforcing and issuing of tickets, that it will deter the companies from allowing standees on their buses."
