Kyiv police are taking action against speeding drivers
In Kyiv, the local patrol police took action against speeders. According to a statement from law enforcement, two foreign-made cars were recently pulled over in the capital after their drivers exceeded the speed limit.
The agency’s official statement reads as follows:
While measuring speed using a TruCam device, inspectors stopped the drivers of a Lexus and a BMW, who were traveling through the city at speeds of 121 km/h and 160 km/h.
We reminded the drivers of the traffic rules and issued them citations under Part 4 of Article 122 (Exceeding established speed limits by more than 50 km/h) of the Code of Administrative Offenses.
Please note that:
according to Part 1 of Article 122 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, exceeding the established speed limits for vehicles by more than 20 km/h results in a fine of 340 hryvnias;
according to Part 4 of Article 122 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, exceeding the established speed limits for vehicles by more than 50 km/h results in a fine of 1,700 hryvnias.
Drive responsibly and follow traffic rules.
As a reminder, the patrol police have installed new automated traffic violation cameras: here’s where exactly.
On October 8, 2018, photo and video recording of traffic violations began in Ukraine. TruCam measurement devices were installed at locations with frequent traffic accidents and on hazardous sections of international highways.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has proposed using funds from traffic violation fines to finance video-recording systems.
