The National Taxi Drivers Union demands the resignation of the director of the Executive Agency "Automobile Administration" Boyko Ranovski, BNR reported. The reason for the request is the suspension by the agency of the control in the case of unregulated transportations.

"Our point of view remains as we have been expressing it in the last 6 months - lack of control by the institutions on Bulgarian roads. The state is currently absent," Diana Rusinova of the European Centre for European Policy told BNR.

She pointed out that the taxi sector is facing a difficult situation due to unfair competition, the coronavirus pandemic, rising fuel prices and the lack of a compensation mechanism.
