Santo Domingo. – Less than 24 hours before the deadline for the renewal of the vehicle sticker expires, long lines of citizens are registered this Friday in different banking entities, where drivers go massively to acquire the tax and avoid fines and surcharges. Users reported that the stickers are running out, as happened in a branch of Banco Ademi located on Pedro Livio Cedeño Avenue, where dozens of people went without being able to complete the process.

This Friday, we observed during a tour, a high concentration of people both outside and inside bank branches, with lines extending to the sidewalks and parking lots in several entities.

The influx has been maintained since the early hours of the day, generating concern among drivers given the proximity of the official expiration, which is tomorrow. Many left the procedure for the last moment, which has caused congestion and delays in the service. Authorities reiterate the call to vehicle owners to complete the renewal within the established deadline, as driving without the updated sticker entails financial sanctions and possible detentions.
