Today Armenian parliamentarians discussed the proposal on inserting
changes to the Administrative Code with the purpose to regulate the
traffic. In part, the amendments provide for major penalty for those
who drive cars with "modern" signals, black curtains and glasses as
well as other novelties.
Taking into consideration the fact that the installment of a "modern"
signal costs at least $50 it becomes clear what part of the population
the measures are referred to. However along with the limitations the
size of the penalty for other violations reduces.
The legislative changes allow the citizen to pay the penalty on the
spot. He can also refuse to pay the penalty, challenge the policeman's
activity or pay it somewhere else. Thus the government wished to
eliminate the "atmosphere of impunity.
However during the parliamentary debates deputies of the Orinats Yerkir
Faction spoke against the above mentioned changes. They consider
that the measures are too strict and do not defend the rights of
the society.
