Monday, at almost noon, the motorcycle taxi owners (Motoconchos) had to register themselves.
The Motoconchos had to hand over a proof of ownership of their bike and their ID (cedula) and they should be known as a reliable person.
The reporter of Sosúa Online asked some Motoconchos their opinion on this measure.
They said they were in favor of this measure and hoped that this prevents clandestine Motoconchos to operate.
The illegally working Motoconchos are, as they noted, often scammers.
Because every motorcycle taxi driver now wears a visible number it makes it easier for customers who are disadvantaged (swindled) to file a complaint.

The registration of the Motoconchos was established at the initiative of the Mayor, the traffic police and the national police.
