Deputies demanded to cancel the increase in rates on toll roads

Since March 1, owners of electric cars can drive for free on paid sections of Russian highways. But only the owners of electric vehicles in our country – one, two and miscalculated. But for owners of traditional cars, with the light hand of the Cabinet of Ministers, rates on toll roads are ready to increase 2-3 times, which caused indignation not only among drivers, but also among deputies.

So, according to the chairman of the party “Fair Russia – For the Truth” Sergei Mironov, the corresponding government decision should be canceled, because the increase in tariffs for “payers” will simply “increase inflation and impoverishment” of the already impoverished Russians.

“I publicly call on the government to drop this draconian increase. Enough to hang all new claims on motorists, enough to accelerate inflation and the impoverishment of citizens! There should be no rate hikes, it’s time for officials to slow down and switch from the usual form of extortion to neutral,” said deputy Sergei Mironov.

Recall that a recent resolution made it possible to increase the maximum rates for passenger cars to 5-8 rubles per kilometer. In addition, the “payers” built under concessions can grow from 12 to 16.5 rubles. Such measures turn toll roads into a service for privileged citizens – due to another price hike, ordinary motorists simply cannot afford to drive on such stretches.
