The transport of pets in public transport service groups is not prohibited, so episodes in which the driver opposes the practice usually generates conflicts and clashes with users.
This is what happened inside a bus on line 12 of the Magno SA Company. At the height of Saturio Ríos and Julia Miranda Cueto streets, in the city of San Lorenzo, a man got on the bus, along with his pet, a dog.
The driver pointed out that he could not get on the animal, so it started, first an argument. Then the driver made a call, apparently to report the incident, generating a violent reaction from the passenger, who approached him and punched him, after which he got out of the vehicle.
The driver, however, got out and followed the angry man, with the apparent desire to “pay back” the blows received. But the “mascotero” attacked the driver again, knocking him to the ground and kicking him. Bus passengers and passers-by finally separated them.
Although there were no complaints at the jurisdictional police station, the issue of pets on buses remained on the agenda, which, since it does not have any regulation, is at the mercy of what the driver of the vehicle says, with the consequent reaction of the counterparty.
Driver and passenger to beatings in the city of San Lorenzo. Everything would have started after an argument because the man wanted to put his pet on public transport.
