The Ministry of Interior says that in the course of the last weekend, nine people lost their lives in traffic accidents in Serbia, while 100 people were injured.
"Initial analyzes show that the most frequent influencing factors of these traffic accidents were unadjusted speed, improper overtaking, and it is symptomatic that a large number of participants did not use the seat belt at the time of the accident", Aleksandar Radenkovic from the Traffic Police Directorate of Serbian Ministry of Interior stated.
He pointed out that since the start of summer season, traffic police had carried out actions of enhanced traffic control, which will be continued in the forthcoming period.
"The Traffic Police Directorate once again appeals to all traffic participants to respect the prescribed speed limits, to use the seat belt in the front and back seats and to travel on the trip exclusively if they rest and take a break every two hours", Radenkovic concluded.
Sadly,I fear,this appeal will fall on deaf ears. The general standard of driving and compliance with the relevant legislation is appalling and the machismo and testosterone fuelled arrogance of these plebeians is endemic across the Balkans.Only stringent policing (corruption-free one hopes)and issuance of appropriate financial penalties and lengthy bans (if they live to tell the tale that is) will solve the problem. However this is going to take a long time before these idiots see sense!!
