Adolescent Work: Freedom of choice or family obligation? The case of young mototaxi drivers in Lima, Peru

Jerome Ballet and Augendra Bhukuth

Post-Print from HAL

Abstract: Every day, local newspapers in Lima report accidents involving mototaxi drivers: many of these drivers are young. The northern districts of Lima are very steep, so as drivers gain speed, it is not uncommon for them to have difficulty braking at intersections. The risk of accidents is high. Driving a mototaxi may therefore be considered as hazardous work .
