Teenage Riots in Brazil

São Paulo has the some of the worst traffic problems and highest public transit fees in Brazil. We followed a protest for the Free Pass Movement that started with a peaceful march and ended in the violent clubbing of enraged protestors.
--
In October 2012, just before the São Paulo mayoral elections, we followed the Free Pass Movement of Sao Paulo in their celebrations of the National Day of the Free Pass. They have celebrated the date since 2005 to mark the victory of the Florianópolis MPL chapter, when the population surrounded the City Hall until a bill guaranteeing a Free Pass on public transport for students was approved.
Today the fight for a free pass on public transport is not only for students, but for everyone. Yet despite large protests occurring all over Brazil, they remain largely invisible to mainstream media - but not to the batons from the local police.

For them to increase transportation they'd need more bus drivers. More bus drivers = more jobs.

Also though, there are quite a few central city bus services here in Australia that are free of charge, not all but some and it definitely does help those who may not have the money to pay for expensive bus tickets.

This is a reflection of what every other urban centre must face: ease of transport and ready /safe/affordable public transportation is essential to the structure of a city. I have no doubt this will rise as an issue in situations with global attention - FIFA and Olympics. If this really is a city of such affluence, more should be done to maintain and expand infrastructure. Bike lanes, light rail, and shared/carpool lanes - easy additions to city streets.

I agree. Over here in Finland the price of public transportation is also ridiculously high. The irony is that the government wants the use of public transportation to increase in order to combat pollution (that is to say; less people using their own cars and whatnot, and using more trams, trains etc), but the prices are so high that many people travel as bums.

@zhint93 11 жыл бұрын

very interesting...i live in zurich where public transport is perfect...i pay 1000 franks and can travel across the whole canton...in the city every stop has a tram or bus of the same line every 3-6 minutes and if they're late its a minute or two...i hope more parts of the world will invest in public transport, because its also a big step for a green environment

To compare relative costs it's better to use the ratio of the fare to the median wage. Then you can also compare the ratios to the disparities in quality. If you want to get into more detail you can also look at the external, shared costs of different modes of transportation such as pollution, which have financial impacts, such as increased cases of asthma and other ailments.

Maybe I don't understand entirely, thanks Vice... pffff. I agree that public money should pay for public transport. But those rails cost millions of dollars and shouldn't be free. In Portland, OR I think our rail/bus system, for now, is priced fairly and covers a vast network of streets. Brazilians should protest (and stamp out) government corruption instead of rallying for their entitlement to free transit. Treat the problem, not the symptom.
