Police Headquarters:
Traffic police officers, equipped with specialist inspection and measuring equipment (smoke meters and exhaust gas analyzers), will test the exhaust emissions of vehicles where there is reasonable suspicion that they fail to meet environmental protection requirements.
The officers add:
These activities will make it possible to identify cars that should not be allowed on the roads because they exceed exhaust emission standards.
