All our women who use our bus across the country in the year 2016 against occurring harassment and rape achieved another first in Turkey with the project that we realized they can get off the bus wherever they want without waiting for the stop between the 22.00 and 24.00. In this direction, we receive very positive reactions from our women. I would also like to thank our drivers for your sensitivity to this application. Bu
