Fratelli d'Italia (Brothers of Italy) party leaders conducted an overnight inspection of bus line 2 in Brescia, focusing on passenger safety and security. The inspection, which ran from 7 PM to 00:30 AM on Wednesday, covered the route from Pendolina to Chiesanuova, a path designated for a future tram line.
Party officials, including city secretary Carlo Andreoli, expressed concern over recent incidents of violence and degradation on public transport. They stressed that violence should be condemned universally, irrespective of whether perpetrators are Italian or foreign-born. The party aims to ensure a livable city for everyone by distinguishing between rule-abiding citizens and those who commit crimes.
Fratelli d'Italia has proposed three concrete measures to Mayor Laura Castelletti. First, they call for the isolation of driver cabins to prevent disruptions and potential accidents. Andreoli recalled an incident where a driver's control was compromised by an agitated passenger, leading to a crash.
Violence must always be condemned, regardless of who commits it.
Second, the party requests increased presence of local police officers on buses. If personnel are insufficient, they suggest employing private security guards, similar to practices in Verona. This increased presence, they argue, would deter misconduct and help combat fare evasion.
The party highlighted their hands-on approach to politics, contrasting it with what they termed the "caviar and champagne" lifestyle of the left. By riding the bus and observing conditions firsthand, Brothers of Italy seeks to address urban discomfort and ensure public transport becomes a safe space for all passengers.
I recall that a few months ago, a man in an altered state interfered with the driver while the bus was in motion, he suddenly turned the steering wheel, causing the public transport vehicle to go off the road and hit a tree in the hospital area.
