Public incidents involving the TransMilenio bus system in Bogotá have drawn significant criticism from citizens and political figures. 

In late August, a physical altercation between two women on a bus, occurring amidst transport blockades and delays, sparked public indignation. Bogotá Councilman Juan David Quintero condemned the violence and proposed a ‘No más bloqueos’ initiative to prevent protests from paralyzing public transportation.

By late September, new concerns emerged regarding safety and authority after video footage circulated showing youths riding on the roof of a bus along the Carrera 30 corridor and climbing station structures. Councilman Andrés Barrios Bernal called for the Secretariat of Security to identify and sanction those involved, citing a lack of law enforcement within the transport system.
