Not everyone knows this rule: what drivers most often forget about on the roads

In some places, even experienced drivers have quite controversial questions about certain actions during road traffic. One of these: whether it is necessary to give way to a cyclist at a pedestrian crossing.

EU recognized Ukrainian rights

Ukraine and the EU exempt holders of driving licenses issued by one of the parties from the requirement to have an international driving licence.

This became possible after both sides signed an agreement on “transport visa-free travel” on June 29.

Thus, all EU countries will now recognize Ukrainian-style driving licenses without restrictions. And this means that Ukrainians will not need to take additional exams or change their driver’s license.

According to officials, such a decision will help Ukrainian migrants who need a driver’s license to work in the EU.

Recall that the Verkhovna Rada returned duties and VAT on imported goods and customs clearance of cars from July 1. On June 30, the corresponding law was signed by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky.
