They predict that the speed on the highways in our country will be a maximum of 130 km/h - 1

Serious changes in the Traffic Law on the roads provides for a project published on the website of the National Assembly. The speed on the highways in our country should be a maximum of 130 km/h, and the toll cameras should detect average speed and be used by the Ministry of the Interior, writes FOCUS.

Marian Vassilev is an expert in auto-moto training. He was an instructor, and now he is involved in international shipping. He travels thousands of kilometers a month both by car and heavy-duty trucks. To reduce the speed on native highways for Mariyan Vassilev is senseless.

"10 km is not such a factor. Every year, statistics are released that the death rate and the accidents themselves are increasing. Yes, but has anyone taken into account how much the traffic has increased, not let's do the calculations, how many accidents there are", asks Mariyan Vasilev, auto expert, transmitted to NOVA.

B the reasons for the law, it is noted that the increased and unguarded traffic is the reason for the increased death rate on the road. According to the auto expert, it is the first-class roads, not the highways, that are problematic. Reducing the speed on the highways will also create an administrative burden for the state, not a relief for drivers, according to Vassilev.

"Changing road signs, changing the traffic law...a commitment that is unnecessary for me,", he points out.

However, the expert in auto-moto training agrees that the TOL-cameras should detect average speed and be used by the "Traffic Police" for imposing fines when exceeding it.

And as for another pressing issue – illegal road races and demonstrative driving and taking pictures of odometers at a speed of up to 300 km/h, according to Mariyan Vasilev, a non-standard approach by the state to these drivers is needed. The draft amendments to the Law on Road Traffic must first go through a series of discussions and several votes in the plenary hall before being promulgated.
