A new shocking manifestation of irresponsible driving on Bulgarian roads was revealed by Nikolay Popov, the father of 12-year-old Siyana, who tragically died in an accident. On social networks, he shared a video showing how young drivers perform dangerous overtaking on a mountain road in reduced visibility.
"If you wonder what road terrorists look like, watch this video", wrote Nikolay Popov to the published footage showing how a driver overtakes cars in front of him, without taking into account the approaching turns.
Especially worrying is the fact that the young people use radio stations to coordinate between cars. In the video, a passenger next to the driver can clearly be heard receiving instructions from another car moving in front of them: "Clean! Come on... Right turn, there's no one else." The participants in the dangerous ride themselves admit: "They think we're crazy", referring to the other road users.
The paradox is that the footage was uploaded online by the offenders themselves, who obviously don't realize the danger of their actions or believe they have the right to such behavior on the road.
Nikolai Popov, who has been leading an active campaign against reckless driving for months after the tragic death of his daughter, calls for strict measures against the offenders. "Armed with radios, these people are committing atrocities on the roads, trampling and killing. They film their own stupidity to infect others with it. And are we to remain silent and watch them? These people should be removed from society and put in their place. Share," he urged.
The case becomes public in the week when popular singers Emrah Storaro and Konstantin received serious sanctions after publishing a video of a dangerous race in Sofia. The two were fined 3,000 leva each and had their driver's licenses revoked for a period of one year.
