Police agents stripe illegally parked cars of license plates

Drivers who park illegally will have their license plates removed. Besides the policemen who are regularly appointed to monitor such violations, another 40 district police agents will be dispatched to 40 streets in Chisinau, today. Aurelia Mija, Traffic Police Division press officer, stated that special attention will be paid to the capital’s main arteries, especially near commercial centers.

They will have to pay a fine between 100 and 200 lei, and will get 2 penalty points, and if the parked car is an obstacle for other vehicles, the fines rises up to 2,000 lei.
