Резкое потепление: воронежцам рассказали о погоде на рабочей неделе
The State Duma has proposed increasing fines for noisy drivers by 40 times. This plan has been submitted to the Russian government.
According to the creators of the idea, some drivers intentionally use modified exhaust systems or listen to loud music. This destroys peace and quiet, disrupts restful sleep and directly harms people's health.
"There are drivers at many construction sites who like to turn up the volume of their music at night. We also complain about careless drivers who disturb people with noise," he explained.
If a driver exceeds the road noise level of 96 decibels, he will be fined 20,000 rubles instead of 500 rubles. For government employees, the fine is 30,000 rubles.
As the authors explain, this bill will hit offenders hard in the wallets and deter them from such behavior.
