Private
cars confiscated
HOLGUÍN, July 18 (www.cubanet.org) -
Authorities in Sagua de Tánamo, Holguín
province, are in the process of confiscating five
1950s vintage American cars because their owners
used them to transport passengers without a license.
State transportation inspectors say the owners
had each accumulated three violations of the statute,
incurring fines of between 700 and 1,500 pesos.
Owners say the government refuses them licenses
when they apply. "We have to invest thousands
of pesos to maintain the cars, and we have to
work clandestinely to maintain our families, because
the government denies our application for the
license to transport passengers," said one.
