Among other topics, it was highlighted that the ATU has been promoting, as a priority, the scrapping process. The objective is to remove from circulation vehicles that represent risks to road safety that have already reached their useful life.
Hernandez stated that currently the entity finances almost 14 vehicle deposits to guarantee compliance with the law and the principle of authority. However, he clarified that ATU deposits do not operate under a rental model, so no vehicle will be released regardless of the amount of debt accumulated, thus reaffirming the principle of authority in the face of informality.
