According to inkorr.com: When it comes to road safety, the Ukrainian police intends to implement important changes to traffic rules. According to the new bill, fines for speeding may increase, and the 'unpunished threshold' for speeding will be reduced from 20 km/h to 10 km/h. Additionally, clear penalties for violating speed limits will be introduced, aimed at enhancing safety on our roads.

“Speed regime – reducing the 'unpunished threshold' from 20 to 10 km/h, clear grading of fines for violating speed limits,” noted in the legislative initiatives of the patrol police.

Purpose of Changes

These changes are being implemented to improve discipline among drivers and reduce the level of danger on the roads. Moreover, the police is considering other legislative initiatives, including increasing accountability for serious traffic violations and regulating the use of electric transport. The introduction of a points penalty system for offenders is also planned. Changes regarding speed limits are currently being discussed alongside other bills.

Discussion in Parliament

Furthermore, a bill is being considered in the Verkhovna Rada that may require drivers over 65 years old to undergo additional medical and psychological examinations. This initiative has sparked broad discussion in society as it requires thorough analysis.

Thus, the Ukrainian police aims to strengthen control over compliance with speed limits by implementing stricter fines and other innovations that may positively impact the safety of all road users. These steps highlight the importance of properly adhering to rules to reduce accidents on the roads.
