Lei Jimenez, wife of Arvin “Tado” Jimenez who has passed away during the Bus accident in the ravine in Mountain Province last February 7, 2014 shaves her hair in front of the terminal of G.V. Florida Transport Inc.

According to Lei the shaving of her hair is a sign of protest for the luck of support from GV Florida Transport INC over the death of her husband and 14 others.

While Lei’s hair was still on shaving, friends and supporters were chanting: “Hustisya, hustisya sa biktima ng Florida.”

“If Tado were alive then he would have done the same to make his statement loud and clear. Tado has been an activist since our student days in PUP and he always made his political statement in a creative fashion,” Lei was quoted by artist group Dakila as saying.

“This unfortunate loss of so many lives was caused by the irresponsibility of the GV Florida Bus Lines and the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB). They should be made accountable and justice should be served to the victims and their families,” she said.

Lei was citing the shortcoming in behalf of the LTFRB for negligence in enforcing the road safety measure.

She said that the entire system must be reformed referring to the “kabit” and “kolorum” system which blatantly tolerated by the agency that until now still continue. If this wrong practice will still continue more and more lives will be put in danger in which his husband was one of the victims with such an irony that Tado was trying to change that crooked system when he was still alive, she said.

In connection to the said Bus incident that involved the GV Florida Transport INC, their buses are currently under the 30-day suspension and the driver of the ill-fated bus, identified as Edgar Renon is now detained at the Mt. Province District Jail facing multiple charges that includes reckless imprudence resulting in multiple homicide and serious physical injuries.

According to Chairman Winston Ginez, each of 15 families who have been a victim of bus accident will receive P150,000. Part of the amount coming from G.V. Florida Transportation Inc. P100,000 and from the insurance the amount of P50,000.
