Municipalidad de San Miguel: NO CUMPLE!


El mal uso de las bocinas es penado por el Reglamento de Tránsito

Por Jorge Aliaga Cacho

Ya es hora de acabar con la polución sonora en nuestras areas residenciales.  No aceptemos sólo declaraciones por parte de las autoridades municipales y la policía de tránsito.  Se debe de actuar inmediatamente, sancionando a los infractores del reglamento de tránsito.  La norma (Art.98 D.S.016-2009-MTC) estipula que el uso de la bocina sólo debe efectuarse para evitar peligro.  Los vecinos de Lima somos testigos del generalizado mal uso de la bocina por quienes creen tener licencia para hacer ruido.  Esto tiene que llegar a su fin y las autoridades deberían contratar a cientos de inspectores de transito para que impongan papeletas instantáneas a quienes incumplan la norma.  De no ocurrir esto los limeños seguiremos sufriendo agresiones a nuestra capacidad auditiva y seguiremos siendo víctimas de ruidos molestos en nuestras áreas residenciales.  Las municipalidades de toda Lima deberían abrir una línea directa o una página web para que los vecinos de la ciudad reporten los números de placas de los vehículos que incumplan este dispositivo.  Conociendo la ineficacia de la policía, me parece que, una de las mejores herramientas para terminar con esta mala práctica es la intervención directa de la población que ahora también podría mostrar, como evidencia, una grabación, hecha con teléfono celular, de las respectivas infracciones que se realizan en la ciudad.
La Municipalidad de San Miguel de la provincia de Lima debe de actuar inmediatamente y envíar pesonal de la comuna a las calles del distrito para solucionar este grave problema que puede traer denuncias masivas en altas instancias de la administración de justicia. Entre los sectores de mayor ruido se encuentra la intersección de las avenidas La Mar y Las Leyendas.

Early life

Jorge Aliaga Cacho, is a writer and sociologist born in Lima, Peru. He completed his primary education at “La Rectora”, and attended secondary school, intermittently, at various institutions, including the same infamous military school attended by Mario Vargas Llosa (Leoncio Prado), before scaling its high walls and ‘escaping’ a few weeks into term so he could go to a party. At only 16 years of age, the author ventured into politics. He first participated in the Peruvian Committee for the Liberation of Angela Davis, and also served on the Committee to Support the Struggle of the Vietnamese people. By that time he had begun his first job as an accounting clerk, before being moved to the billing department to work as a debt collector. On the streets of Lima, he discovered not only the architecture of the city, but the idiosyncrasies of his people that he registers accurately in the content of his writing.
