“Maduro under fire for not wearing seat belt during broadcast”
Nicolás Maduro, the president of Venezuela, has come under criticism for not wearing a seat belt during a broadcast of his program. In a video, Maduro is seen driving with the Chavista governor of La Guaira, José Terán, and the mayor José Manuel Suárez, none of whom were wearing seat belts.
Terán mentioned during the tour that they had passed through checkpoints without being told anything about their lack of seat belts. The incident has sparked backlash on social media. The importance of wearing seat belts for safety while driving has been emphasized by critics of Maduro’s actions.
