It is also proposed to introduce mandatory insurance to compensate for damage to victims in the event of an accident. In addition, employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs may be allowed to stop users of such vehicles to check the registration in the register and the availability of insurance.
All three proposals were sent to the government. The Ministry of Transport has already supported them. No decision has been made yet. Discussion continues.
