YEREVAN, MARCH 6, ARMENPRESS. Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan stated that the score system introduced recently to regulate the road traffic is already giving concrete results.

“I must record that the scoring system already brings concrete results.

In particular, number of victims of traffic accidents declined by 3 in the republic compared to the previous year, by 18 compared to 2018, although the number of cars in Armenia has increased by several tens of thousands.

As of March 6, 2019 number of traffic accidents declined by 38 in Yerevan compared to the same period of 2018, number of those killed decreased by 1 and those injured by 84”, the PM said on Facebook.

According to the new scoring system, each driver in Armenia has nine points for one year, and in case of any violation, the scores are reduced. If the scores reach 0, the driving license is temporarily suspended.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
