According to Svyrydenko, the government is preparing a set of decisions aimed at reducing the accident rate and strengthening discipline on the roads, in particular:

🔹strengthening liability for systematic violations of traffic rules, specifically for speeding;

🔹tougher sanctions for drivers who systematically exceed established limits;

🔹improving the system of automatic and non-automatic recording of violations;
