Transporte de Valores

Montevideo has a lot more armored cars than I'm accustomed to. They're constantly complicating traffic when they stop in a driving lane to make a delivery or pick-up. They're usually accompanied by a small car full of guards with big guns. I've been too intimidated to get a good photo of the guys with the shotguns and assault rifles. There seem to be two main companies and several smaller operators.

I'm fairly certain that the widespread use of cash payments explains the number of armored cars.
