Five years
ago, Susana Villarán made a promise in order to be elected as mayoress of Lima.
She was committed to put order in transportation. It could be real but it was
only a good intention. The idea of set up a Buses System painted in blue was a
good step but not enough. Actually, at first it developed in a chaos for commuters.
Anyway, the fact is that since 90’s when Alberto Fujimori was president, combies showed up on the roads of this untidy city. These are a particular way of transportation, in other words these are "crazy combies" because their drivers go by the roads as a pilot of racing, with the highest loudly songs. The speed and the volume is the same pollution mess. We have a particular alive folkore with rhythims of Yaipén, Grupo 5, Los Destellos' and the typical voices of ‘suben, suben’ y ‘bajan, bajan, pisa’, ‘pie derecho’, everyday. With a guy, hanging from the combi's door, they charge fares as they consider you must pay, without fair rules.
