Drivers to be fined 25,500 hryvnias: what penalties are being prepared.


The Ukrainian government is planning to strengthen penalties for car owners who 'distribute' Russian music outside their cars. Legislators want to impose fines on such drivers to make it clear that the sound can be heard by more than just themselves.
Legislators intend to punish drivers who consider their cars a private space but spread sound far beyond the vehicle
The most common issue is the sound of music on the streets through open windows or loud audio systems. For violating such a law, drivers could face a fine ranging from 5,100 to 25,500 hryvnias, which would be a significant financial loss for them.
Prohibition of playing Russian music in public places
Parliament has approved a law that prohibits playing Russian music and videos in public places such as parks, restaurants, public transport, and streets. Every citizen has the right to report violations of this law to the police and demand appropriate action.
