Rescue agencies saved 26 lives in water-related incidents over the Easter break. Also, during Holy Week, they carried out 420 medical actions at aid stations. The Emergency Operations Center (COE) director said that citizens had done more to follow their advice this year, and this was why there were fewer negative results during the holiday.
The director of the Metropolitan Transit Authority (AMET), Jose Anibal Sanz Jiminian, reported that the agency seized 1,453 vehicles, of which 1,237 were motorcycles whose drivers were not wearing helmets. The officer said that the return of the vehicles depends on the owners paying the fines. Finally, the Ministry of Public Works reported helping 126 people on the highways and roads, and the Ministry of the Interior and Police helped 558 drivers.
