Bus Drivers Outraged Over White Line and Camera Fines: "Dangerous for Passengers" (VIDEO)

Bus drivers in Cyprus are planning a work stoppage on Friday, protesting the frequent fines they receive from the traffic camera system for crossing the white line. They argue that these fines threaten their jobs and driving licenses, while emphasizing that emergency braking to avoid crossing the line is dangerous for passengers. They are calling for measures, such as warning lights or countdown timers, to prevent violations. The Association of Provincial Bus Operators (EMEL) reports a shortage of drivers and emphasizes the need for sustainable solutions.
