The purpose of this study is to deal with the traffic issue as a complex social practice, and its intention is to raise and analyze the cognitive system produced by this practice on bus drivers of the conventional and alternative transportation metro system in the city of Goiania. Therefore, the study searched for the representative system that orients and justifies its conduction practices. The expected impact of this study was the contribution of a psychosocial model of traffic study, specifically of the metro transportation, thus, getting to know better how these groups represent reality. The metro transportation structure of the city of Goiania is constituted by the conventional system of metro transportation, where the vehicle used is the bus, and by one alternative metro system, that uses the microbus. To get to know the traffic representations of these groups and some particulars related to them, it was made a research which was methodologically oriented by the Theory of the Central Nucleus of the Social Representations. It was applied a questionnaire to 103 (one hundred and three) bus drivers and to 118 (one hundred eighteen) microbus drivers of the city of Goiania and its metropolitan region. The results indicated that both groups have a representation centered on the idea of tumult and stress , and a negative view of the behavior of others drivers. However, these representations are different when it is analyzed the meaning given to the elements that supposedly compose the central nucleus, which can illustrate the different work situation in the traffic of both groups interviewed.
