Dmitry Medvedev at session of Presidium of the presidential Council of the Russian Federation for strategic development and national projects promised in the near future, tougher penalties in the field of road safety.

Also motorists will increase fines for several traffic violations. However while the Prime Minister did not name what kind of penalties will be increased.

Here we need a global set of measures and a huge infusion of funds in roads, in infrastructure, and improving the classification of the traffic police (not secret that today, many police officers are not perfect can manually regulate the movement, when, for example broken traffic light).

Including need from the school to instill in children respect for each other on the road, learning to respect the law, etc.

Including separately need to improve the quality of education in schools and strengthen the fight against corruption in bodies of traffic police, where not infrequently a driver’s license just to sell just brainless drivers.

And, of course, you need to quickly resolve the issue with the inspection, which turned into the usual formality in the acquisition of diagnostic card directly in the office of the insurance company. After all, every year on the roads of Russia goes more and more cars in a terrible condition than pose a threat to all road users.
