以任何标准衡量,萨尔瓦多的公共交通系统都存在严重的犯罪问题。在犯罪机会理论的指导下,这项研究对这一问题进行了快速评估,包括系统地观察萨尔瓦多的公共交通,并与乘客、公共汽车运营商、警察和公共汽车公司所有者/经理进行重点小组讨论。目的是(1)描述影响该系统的犯罪和混乱的主要形式;(2)确定导致犯罪和混乱程度高的系统的特征;(3)确定符合国际经验的预防措施。确定了一项情景犯罪预防措施方案,主要包括两类:(1)与整个公共汽车系统的运营有关的措施,旨在帮助创造一个更有序和更安全的运输环境;(2)更具体的措施,旨在减少在公共汽车或公共汽车站发生犯罪的机会,如杀人、抢劫和对妇女的性侵犯。并对今后预防措施的研究和实施进行了讨论。
By any standard, there is a serious problem of crime on the public transport system in El Salvador. Guided by crime opportunity theory, this study undertook a rapid assessment of the problem consisting of a systematic observation of public transport in El Salvador and focus group discussions with passengers, bus operators, police and bus company owners/managers. The purposes were (1) to describe the main forms of crime and disorder afflicting the system, (2) to identify features of the system that contribute to the high levels of crime and disorder, and (3) to identify preventive measures, consistent with international experience. A program of situational crime prevention measures was identified which consisted of two main kinds: (1) measures relating to the operations of the bus system as a whole, intended to help to create a more orderly and secure transport environment and, (2) more specific measures designed to reduce opportunities for crimes occurring on buses or at bus stops, such as homicides, robberies, and sexual assaults on women. Future research and implementation of the preventive measures are discussed.
