On the facebook page 'Sosúa mi pueblo' the discussion was started:
Should the motoconcho be replaced by tuk-tuk?
In Charamicos such a tricycle showed up.
The editors of 'Sosúa mi pueblo' asked readers to comment on the use of this vehicle as a replacement for moto-taxis.
Tuk-tuk in Sosúa
Almost all reactions were positive.
The vehicle is much safer and more comfortable for the passenger.
Many motoconchos drive like crazy through the streets, with this vehicle this is less possible.
More passengers can be transported simultaneously.
As a result, the fare can be lower.
A disadvantage is that therefore unemployment rises among motoconchos, because this vehicle can transport more passengers at the same time.
In Samana these covered motoconchos habe been in use since many years.
Here you hear nothing but positive responses.
What is the Sosúa-News reader's opinion?
