Around one thousand offenders on the road every week are caught by the police. They drive without driving license or under the influence of alcohol and drugs. This was reported by chief inspector Rossen Rapchev from traffic police. Only about 10% had their registration numbers removed from their vehicles. New rules should make sure that more offenders will be held accountable for their actions. Passengers will also be checked by the authorities.
According to Rapchev the summer is the most rough time of year when it comes to road safety due to the increased traffic. This is why all available crews from traffic police will be on main roads, especially near summer resorts and the border with Greece and Turkey. Speeding and aggression will not be tolerated, said chief inspector Rapchev. inews.bg
