1135 traffic accidents registered in Armenia over the first 7 months
of 2011 have left 150 dead and 1697 injured, head of RA Police traffic
patrol service Norik Sargsyan told a news conference in Yerevan.
The number of traffic accidents has increased by 143, the deaths -
by 14 and the wounded - by 357 compared to the same period in 2010.
The increase in the number of traffic accidents is mostly due to the
growing number of imported cars in the country, the official said.

review, up around 15 percent."
