On the weekend of October 1-3, 2021, the GAI will conduct a large-scale operation on local roads and in rural settlements.
Entertainment, leisure, and retail facilities located in rural areas will be under special control during this period.
On the roads, traffic police inspectors will suppress the most serious violations of the Traffic Regulations.
The GAI will pay special attention to drunk pedestrians, drivers without licences, and drivers who get behind the wheel while intoxicated.
Reckless driving will not go unnoticed. The GAI will monitor those who disregard the rules of overtaking, manoeuvring, and passing pedestrian crossings.
The State Automobile Inspectorate once again urges vehicle owners to be attentive on the roads, especially during twilight and at night.
Key recommendations for drivers:
- drivers should not forget to reduce speed when approaching an unregulated pedestrian crossing;
- if the movement of a vehicle has slowed down or stopped before a pedestrian crossing, drivers of other vehicles moving in adjacent lanes in the same direction must reduce speed, allowing pedestrians to pass;
- at a regulated pedestrian crossing, when the traffic light signal permits passage, it is necessary to yield to pedestrians.
