Truck drivers say the car scales are not working properly and the Ukrtranssecurity leadership is corrupt.
In the Nikolaev region, dozens of trucks on Monday, May 24, blocked the N-24 highway, protesting against the work of the overall weight complex of Ukrtranssecurity, which, according to truckers, overestimates the real weight, reports News.pn.
In addition, they demand the resignation of the mandate by one of the deputies from the Servant of the People. Representatives of the carriers said that he was allegedly “given” three Ukrtranssecurity departments – Odessa, Nikolaev and Kherson, the newspaper reports. News-N.
It is noted that one of the protesters, the owner of a motor transport company, Alexander Blokha, said that he knew this deputy personally, and when he met, he seemed to directly hint at the need to pay for the passage of weight complexes.
Because of the protest action, traffic on the road section was allowed on the right lane (towards the city of New Odessa).
In turn, the head of Ukrtranssecurity Yegor Prokopchuk denies the truckers’ accusations.
“The drivers do not like weighing themselves. They say that we have the wrong scales, and for some reason the inspectors need to be replaced. Guys, we have checked the scales, they work with an acceptable error. And the inspectors, together with the National Police, are happy to welcome you to our complex. the established schedule. Castings for those who you like more – we will not arrange “, – wrote Prokopchuk on the page in Facebook.
Recall last year Zelensky instructed the SBU to control the weight of the trucks… It was noted that there were plans to install automatic weight checking systems on the roads.
before that Cabinet dismissed head of Ukrtranssecurity… The department was headed by Nikita Lagunin.
