Public Transport Personnel More Frequently Victims of Criminal Incidents


The personnel of the city and regional public transport systems are increasingly faced with criminal incidents. Last year 65% of the drivers and conductors in public buses, trams and metro, were confronted at least once by threats, theft and abuse. In 2006 the figure had been 56%. According to a poll the feeling of security among these employees has decreased in 2007. These data were published in the 2007 Safety Report by the Inspectorate for Traffic and Waterways.
