The National Confederation of Independent Truck Drivers (CNTA) Is Considered the Legal Entity Representing the Interests of Truck Drivers
A potential strike by truck drivers, like the national stoppage of 2018, should be the “last resort,” assesses Mauro Maues, executive advisor of the National Confederation of Independent Truck Drivers (CNTA).
According to Maues, there has been a “very big change” in the situation of the category between 2018 — the year of the national strike that stopped the country — and now, mainly due to the opening of dialogue with the government, being received as a transport entity, and the creation of laws to support truck drivers. “At that time, there was also participation from transport companies, bus companies, and agribusiness,” highlighted the executive advisor of CNTA.
“As long as there is consistent dialogue, a strike should be the last resort for truck drivers. We still have a lot of work to do to get there. We consider a stoppage as the last resort for any category to advocate for its demands,” were Maues’ words at the virtual press conference held on Thursday (23) to present the research “The Reality of Independent Truck Drivers in 2022.”

After Loyalty to Fuel Brands at Gas Stations Is Released, ANP Authorizes the Sale of Gasoline and Ethanol via Delivery; Measure May Reduce Fuel Prices and Ease Consumers’ Burden
After the direct sale of ethanol and the end of loyalty to fuel brands at gas stations were approved on August 11, 2021, meaning that gas stations displaying brands of a specific distributor can now sell fuels from other suppliers, as long as consumers are informed, it is now time for the long-promised delivery of gasoline and ethanol to be authorized by the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels, the ANP. Together, these measures may become the “solution” to contain and curb the increase in gasoline prices, easing the burden on consumers.
With this, gas stations will be able to deliver regular gasoline or ethanol to homes. However, the measure comes into effect 180 days after the resolution is published in the Official Gazette of the Union.
According to the regulation, the delivery of fuels can only be made for the delivery of ethanol and ‘type C’ gasoline (the regular sold at gas stations). The supply must occur in the same municipality where the retailer is authorized to operate.
