Moldovan government approves changes, additions to road traffic regulation

Chisinau, 03 May /MOLDPRES/ – The Government approved amendments and completions to the Road Traffic Regulations, as to increase the traffic organization and safety on public roads.

According to the government’s communication and protocol department, modifications refer to new road signaling elements, the speed of movement in and out of the localities, on some road sections.

So, the maximum permissible speed for vehicles transporting dangerous goods, with the weight and/or gauge exceeded, is 40 km/h in localities and 70 km/h outside them. In the case of heavy rainfall, fog or when the roads are covered by ice, snow and sleet, the maximum allowed speed by the category of driving vehicles must be at least 20 km/h below the maximum permitted speed.

Also, the person conducting the driving instruction must possess and, in the case of check, present to the police officer the certificate of professional attestation which gives him the right to train as well as the cards with authorized routes by police.

Adjusting the rules will make it easier for road users to comply with traffic rules, pay more attention to road signs, road signs, traffic signals, and be constantly guided by the responsibility towards other road users, in order to exclude the creation of obstacles to movement.
