The municipal authorities ask for legal instruments to be able to confiscate motor vehicles parked illegally in Chisinau. Mayor Dorin Chirtoaca requested the Municipal Police Division to discuss this issue with the central authorities so that the legislation is amended in this regard, IPN reports.
“This year we must amend the legislation concerning the impounding of illegally parked vehicles. We spoke to your colleagues – ordinary police officers who impose fines for illegal parking. It is ridiculous for them to go with screwdrivers and turn screws to take away license plates from vehicles and to carry license plates in the trunk of their service cars. This is outdated,” said the mayor, noting this method does not solve the problem.
Dorin Chirtoaca also said that the illegally parked cars hamper traffic in Chisinau. To begin with, there will be towed away vehicles parked illegally on the main arteries, such as Stefan cel Mare, Banulescu-Bodoni, and Pushkin.
