During the New Year holidays, the State Traffic Inspectorate will conduct mass checks of drivers to prevent accidents involving drunk drivers. Throughout the holidays, additional traffic police units will be on duty and special operations will be carried out on the roads.
Traffic police crews will increase patrols in crowded places, such as shopping centers and entertainment venues, where traffic jams and accidents may occur. This is especially true for large cities and regional centers, where many motorists come during the holidays.
Preventing accidents involving drivers under the influence of alcohol remains one of the priorities of the State Traffic Inspectorate, especially during the holidays.
