The only purp...I do not really know what to advise. The only purpose of the Ukrainian police’s standing on the roadside is apparently to fine you. Their craving for money is insatiable, and they find out a thousand excuses to fine you. The two most obvious excuses you can offer them are speeding as well as overtaking in forbidden sections (unbroken bisecting line). So do avoid this at any cost, because you can be sure that sooner or later you will be caught by one of the several cops staying hidden along especially tricky sections (e.g. senseless speed limit of 40 kmh etc.) And the Ukrainian highway code provides irrationally high fines (I have seen it, because the police has shown it to me). For a Hungarian a way out is to bargain in Russian, you can usually negotiate a reduction by half. But I doubt they do it to a Russian in the tense times of nowadays.Studiolumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06377777909296284368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565845984512808077.post-5480645182370802282016-04-16T04:08:31.945+02:002016-04-16T04:08:31.945+02:00Could you share your advice about police fines?
