The situation appears to have remained unchanged in that commercial vehicles frequently include the toll fee at each checkpoint they pass while traveling when charging their fares. The innocent passengers bear the cost of the toll. The recent increase in gasoline prices, as well as the police toll fee, contribute to the skyrocketing transportation fare.
Police cannot claim to be unaware of what the officers do at each checkpoint along the highway. Their silence implies that they profit from the extortion carried out by their men.
