Romania: Activists to demonstrate in central Bucharest, July 11
Motoring groups and activists to demonstrate in Victory Square, Bucharest, Romania, on July 11. Heightened security likely.
Motoring groups and activists plan to demonstrate in Victory Square, Bucharest, on July 11. The start time is unclear. Protesters will denounce a new government instruction that would remove driving licenses from motorists refusing to take a drug test. Campaigners claim to have collected 125,000 signatures in a petition against the regulation; the event is likely to be well attended.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site.
Avoid the protest area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling in central Bucharest. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers.
