Azerbaijan, Baku / corr. Trend I.Alizadeh / MP Elmira Akhundova stated during the session of the Parliament that it was necessary to toughen up measures against infringers of the traffic law.
MP stressed that the number of lethal outcomes increased as a result of traffic accidents in the Republic in the recent years.
There is necessity to inject changes and supplements in the traffic legislation. The fines for infringers of traffic law should be increased.
