maybe somebody should start a bbm broadcast saying that hurricane coming so the idiots will leave the gas stations and go by a bar instead...

[Stephon.]

Leaving work now, letting everyone else go home too so they can avoid the 4 o clock curfew traffic.

nah they go jus switch from panic buying gas to panic buying groceries

[ruffrider27]

NP does bring up this when it has a back-up in gas,produce too much so the only way to bring back production on stream "SAY IT HAVE A DAM STRIKE", so guessing the back up due to the SOE , curfew,most gas stations closing before 7 pm.will cause a drop in nightly sales.factory producing gas more they can sell.

[demented]

idle youths and bbm?

Strike and Out of fuel is two different things. which one is true?

put ur hands in the air..


now step away from the blackberry!

[White CZ4A]

Gas stations in south are worse than when there was a gas shortage :s

[GTcruzer]

I agree with this SOE but not the way it is being conducted. They are going after small people in crime while the bigger heads are living in "cold spots".

What Martin Daly said on CNC3 last night made all the sense there is to make & the government would be wise to take heed.
http://www.trinidadexpress.com/news/Dal ... 95273.html

I'm disappointed that the PM and others are referring to the 1st couple of days as a success since what was done on these days could have been done on a normal day without a SOE. Yes i am glad to see that the streets are wiped of these criminals but this SOE should be used to target the white collar criminals.

To those of you saying it been a waste of time thus far.... don't condemn it yet
& those of you saying it only now start, we should wait till the 15days are up to know the results.... that's bullsh!t.
If you can start something but while doing it you given advice of a better way of doing it, nothing is wrong with taking the advice & improving what you set out to do.


On a side note.... anyone else for an "Official SOE Traffic thread" (i don't know if one already exists, didn't notice it)

[*$kїđž!™]

heard on the news just now...

No strike and no fuel shortage......confirmed by NP official....

[White CZ4A]

Gas stations are crowded way more than when there was actually a shortage!

On a side note.... anyone else for an "Official SOE Traffic thread" (i don't know if one already exists, didn't notice it)

we do not want to officially state on trinituner.com where the roadblocks are being held as this may aid the criminal element and those wishing to avoid the police. This would be counterproductive in our opinion given the purpose of having this state of emergency in the first place.

During a state of emergency, sacrifices will be made by the public at large ranging from loss in particular civil rights to being inconvenienced. We feel that the inconvenience of not knowing where the roadblocks are and by extension where there is traffic is, is a small price to pay during the next 15 days carded for the state of emergency.

If users wish to post about traffic pile ups during the state of emergency they are free to do so, however we will not be making any announcements of such. If there is a traffic alert that is pertinent to public safety or regarding an accident or other non-security related reason we will be sure to announce it to our users.

[S_2NR]

too late for any official statement now.
curfew will start and ppl would still be lining up for gas..idiots..
