Useful Tips
|
If you want to be a “decent” driver and avoid problems on the road, you should have on mind several issues:
1. Follow strictly the speed limit within cities – 50 km/h.
2. Pay attention where you park your vehicle in order to be sure that you will find it exactly as you left it.
3. From the beginning of November until the end of March your car lights must be on while driving during the night or the day.
4. Be very careful not only for the road signs but also for the other drivers around you.
5. It is the beginning of the snow season, so you must be sure that your car is equipped with winter tyres, that you have snow chains at hand and that the car is filled with antifreeze, not water and that it has windscreen fluid.
6. You will need to be very alert when driving at night. Horse-drawn carts and motorcycles can sometimes be found on major roads to travel at night without lights.
7. Stay calm and be polite when the traffic police stops you. It could be for a document check only.
8. Do not talk on your mobile while driving.
9. Maybe the most important is to BE EXTREMELY PATIENT.

Полезная информация для водителей
|
В Болгарии вступили в силу новые законы и распорядки связанные с безопасности вождения автомобиля. Кроме установки камеры для наблюдения в самых загруженных перекрестках и скоростных бульварах, был принят и закон согласно которого после превышения скорости больше чем на 30 км/ч органы власти лишают водителей прав в течении 6 месяцев. В распорядках водители обязуются обеспечить детского сидения в машине для каждого ребенка до 12 лет. Все эти меры связаны с ростом ужасных дорожно-транспортных происшествий за последнее время, возникшие из-за несоблюдения дорожных правил и превышения скорости. Имейте ввиду, что еще не ясно лишают ли свободы водителя, который водил машину в нетрезвом состоянии, но надо ли ждать пока будет убит невинный человек для того, чтоб потребовать с нетрезвого водителя ответственность.Иностранцы, которые управляют машины в Болгарии не нуждаются интернациональных водительских прав, несмотря на то является ли водитель гражданином Евросоюза или нет. Но просим иметь ввиду, что все иностранцы, которые являются гражданинами ЕС подлежат всем видам штрафа на территории страны, включая и лишения водительского удостоверения. Вступление Болгарии в ЕС дает возможность более доступным способом требовать компенсации за нанесенный нам ущерб от иностранных граждан ЕС. В связи с этим следует уточнить, что для иностранцев на данный момент существует большая проблемма связанная с оплатой штрафов. Если их оштрафовали в субботу или воскресенье, когда местный /любой/ банк не работает, они не могут уехать из страны, что создает очень много неудобств и конечно дополнительных расходов. Кроме этого можно считать, что до известной степени это стимулирует коррупцию.
На протяжении магистральных и главных дорог гарантированно можете найти каждую из больших сетей бензозаправочных в Болгарии, кафетерий и забегаловках, автосервисах и так называемых у нас „капканы”, где можно купить буквально все.
Напоминаем Вам важную информацию, которую объязательно должны знать, когда собираетесь в дорогу:
1. Ограничение скорости в заселенных пунктах – 50 км/ч
2. Ограничение скорости в не заселенных пунктах – 90 км/ч
3. Ограничение скорости на магистрале – 130 км/ч
4. Телефон дорожной полиции – 166
5. Телефон пожарной службы – 160
6. Телефон скорой помощи – 150
Желаем Вам счастливого пути! |
