And regardless of the prohibitions on the movement of citizens outside of Podgorica, Cetinje, Nikšić, Plužine, Herceg Novi and Ulcinj, according to the latest measures, intercity bus traffic is carried out unhindered.

"Considering that this is relatively early, there are still no changes compared to the previous days. None of the carriers have announced that they will not hold any departures. It is still too early to forecast whether there will be a lower number of passengers or not. The situation is usual for this period on the bus line," Dragan Mrvaljević, manager of road traffic - Bus station Podgorica, pointed out for Boje jutra on TV Vijesti.

However, dissatisfied truckers announce a protest for March 17 - but also demand talks with the authorities.

"We are the first branch to be closed, it has been almost a year that we have not established normal travel at all. The help we have received so far is very little, it was only wages in most cases only 50% of the minimum gross wages. For all that time that individually, that as an association we send letters to the Ministry, we send to the companies we cooperate with that are state-owned and we have no response to all of that. What we asked for and what we generally demand is a meeting with Ministers Spajić, Milatović and Bojanić. As for us Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Dritan Abazović were invited to attend, so that we could present our problems to them at that meeting. We are a branch of public importance, all our business has been going from minus to minus for a year now. If we ignore the material side, what it affects our road hauliers the most and what causes the biggest dissatisfaction is that no one respects us. Not so much that neither the previous government nor the previous government receive us, nor does this one take those two hours for us to familiarize them with the problems." pointed out Milan Stanović, a representative of a trucking company.
