On Friday, October 18, the National Transport Authority (NTSA) suspended an additional 11 Public Service Vehicles (PSV) Saccos from operating.
The regulator maintained that the Saccos flouted provisions of section 5 (1) of the NTSA regulation which requires a PSV Sacco or company to operate 30 serviceable motor vehicles.
Francis Meja, the director of NTSA advised commuters not to use vehicles from the suspended Saccos to avoid inconveniences.
"The Traffic Department has been advised to impound any vehicles belonging to the eleven Saccos/companies found operating contrary to the suspension," Meja stated.
