Cancún Drivers Accuse Quintana Roo Mobility Institute of Abusive Inspections and Impound Fees

Cancún, Quintana Roo — Rideshare drivers, public transit operators and freight truck drivers in Cancún say the Quintana Roo Mobility Institute, known as Imoveqroo, is conducting inspections they consider excessive and imposing requirements that they claim are complicating their daily work.

According to their accounts, inspectors set up operations at various points across the city and look for administrative violations as grounds to detain vehicles and send them to concession-run impound lots.

The drivers say that once a vehicle is taken to one of these lots, additional charges begin to accumulate for fees they describe as inflated or unclear. They have also raised allegations about the condition in which some vehicles are returned, claims that would need to be substantiated before the relevant authorities.

Discontent Spreads Across Transport Sectors

The complaints extend across different segments of the transport industry, particularly among workers who depend on their vehicles to earn a living. Drivers question why administrative violations should lead to financial losses that, they say, end up exceeding the cost of the original infraction itself.

With no response they consider satisfactory, some operators and residents have begun organizing joint efforts to document individual cases and press for a review of how the inspection operations are carried out.

The drivers said they will publicize their complaints and turn to the appropriate authorities to demand a review of inspection procedures, the criteria used to seize vehicles, and the conditions under which the impound lots operate.

So far, the allegations rest solely on the accounts of those affected and have yet to be investigated and verified by the competent authorities.
