Drivers were told how to lose their rights due to the lack of one 'accessory'.

Car enthusiasts in Ukraine who ignore the mandatory fire safety equipment in vehicles should think twice. This is reported by the automotive resource 'Your Car'.

Law enforcement and lawyers warn of serious consequences for ignoring a fire extinguisher while driving. Specialists note that the police are reinforcing control over the presence of fire extinguishers in cars. In case this mandatory equipment is absent, drivers face a fine of 680 hryvnias. For repeat offenses, vehicle owners may have their rights revoked for up to six months.

It is important to note that this requirement applies to drivers engaged in regular passenger transportation. Private car enthusiasts receive a warning. Lawyers recommend challenging illegal fines in court if there are no grounds for them.
