-- The Romanian interior minister intends to give traffic policemen the Ceausescu-like vigor back. Using the EU as pretext, minister David wants drivers to depend on police station heads' moods.
The Liberal interior minister has mentioned his support for the initiative of Romanian Police Chief Dan Fatuloiu, as the latter intends to declare radar detectors illegal. The devices started to be used in order to prevent traffic accidents once with the reform of traffic legislation, after years of public debates and legislative harmonization. Fatuloiu claims such detectors are forbidden everywhere in Europe and David believes it without checking on it.
It is to be mentioned that such devices are illegal in many EU states, as they are useless in states with advanced infrastructure where the number of highway kilometers is incomparably larger than the one in Romania and the average speed is infinitely higher than on Romania's European roads, full of chariots, cows and hens.
ZIUA tried to talk to minister David about the reasons for such an initiative to modify the Traffic Code, but he just asked the Police to explain their view at once. And David's militiamen have come up with one more idea, not at all aimed at caution: to use police agents on the watch dressed like civilians. This is how the entire philosophy of the Traffic Code is spoilt, but fines are ok. This initiative's financial side is not at all insignificant, as the budget emerging from sanctions has been drastically decreasing. (...)
