Bulgaria: Bulgaria's Traffic Police To Remove Licence Plates of Drunk Drivers' Cars BGNES

Traffic police will remove the license plates of cars of drivers caught drunk, on drugs, without a driving license or if they refuse to give a breath sample.

The purpose of this measure is to prevent drivers from using the vehicle again.

The strict sanctions were adopted at second reading by the parliamentary Transport Commission.

“A terminated registration means taking away the license number plates, the registration certificate and erasing the vehicle from the system. During inspections, it will show that the vehicle has no registration,” stated on bTV the chief of the Traffic Police Department (KAT) Boyko Ranovski.

On average, traffic police detain 300 drunk drivers, about 30 drivers on drugs and 600 drivers without a driving license every week.
