The issue of the
compulsory use of the reflective
vest has been used for confusions, badly taken parts and people who
walk with the safety element put, of pure psychosis.
The demand is such
that the vests, which used to cost no more than 2,000 pesos, are now sold for
up to 8,000. Near the Moggs neighborhood, in Biscayan Guerrero with Gerbera,
about 50 people lined up to buy reflective safety vests in bulk. The importer
closed almost immediately because, according to them, there was no stock.
"They want to
raise prices from 1,300 to 2,500 pesos, they have stock, and they have them
there, to raise the price," said one of the merchants who went to buy.
There are people from other cities in Chile who spent the night waiting to buy.
