A big turtle in Santiago

Hello people of the world!!!

Today I’m going to talk about a really current and creative topic, Transantiago. This is the new transport system implemented in 2007 causing a great controversy because it was imposed without an appropriate design. At the beginning, people said the old system was better, because the new routes of the buses make them walk a lot to arrive to the bus stops and they were very slow.

The old system was very disorganized, the bus drivers didn’t have any respect to the students. But some advantages of the old system were that sometimes when you didn`t have money you could ask the driver if he could ride you for less money, but that was overcome for the new system because now you just can pass without paying. Another advantage of the old system was the speed, because the old buses competed for the passengers and the streets became true race roads. The old system was more dangerous but faster than Transantiago. Now the disadvantages of the old system were many, as I said before it was more dangerous than the new one and the buses were very old, the new buses are very modern. The old system didn’t have any regulations, it was disorganized and pollutant, not as the new system.

On the other hand, Transantiago, called “transantiasco” as well, has generated new problems in the society, especially for women who are frequently harassed in the crowed waiting rows and in the subway, they “suffer” groping by degenerated men, who haven’t been satisfied by their wives and search satisfaction in these places.

Finally, I would improve the speed and the frequency of the new buses, that’s all. Bye bye.
