During yesterday (November 11, 2026), from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM, the Traffic Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs conducted an intensified action control across the entire country, aimed at uncovering and sanctioning violations committed by pedestrians, as well as violations by drivers concerning pedestrians.
During the control, 221 violations were recorded and sanctioned, of which 147 were for unsafe crossing by pedestrians on the roadway outside of marked crosswalks, while 25 drivers were sanctioned for failing to yield to pedestrians at marked crosswalks.
Additionally, during the control, 179 drivers were sanctioned for other types of traffic violations.
Traffic controls will continue in the upcoming period.
We urge pedestrians to cross the roadway exclusively at marked crosswalks, and drivers to adjust their speed and allow for unobstructed and safe passage for pedestrians.
The safety of pedestrians is a shared responsibility. Only through consistent adherence to traffic rules and regulations by all participants can we contribute to safer roads and a reduction in the number of traffic accidents.
