Geneva, Switzerland (Tribune de Geneve, Fre) – Bus and tram conductors in Geneva have the right to hand out procès-verbaux denouncing parked cars that block their route, reports the Tribune, quoting TPG officials. Parking in the way of a bus is a practice some drivers are finding expensive.
The right of the drivers to hand out the denunciations is not widely known, it appears, and an indignant motorist who was given one, with a CHF200 fine attached, complained to the newspaper, which investigated. The fines have reportedly help improve the ability of buses to operate more smoothly in some parts of the city.
