Painful but, unfortunately, true. The road traffic in the capital Tirana is a perfect mess, where lawlessness reigns and no competent legal structure, which, instead of regulating the situation, just sits and watches.

See for yourself the images captured by a CNA investigation. They need no comment, they speak for themselves.

Vehicles blocking urban bus stops, defying even the yellow lines marked "BUS", which absolutely prohibit parking.

Vehicles parked in front of garbage bins, defying the rules, regulations, and traffic laws.

Vehicles that block sidewalks, that turn them into parking lots without wanting to know that they are intended only for travelers.

Vehicles parked even on the white lines of pedestrian crossings who, exhaling, curse the police for not intervening, but letting them roam free.

Because the vast majority of the above-mentioned legal violations are committed in the presence of static police services, not to mention mobile officers patrolling various traffic areas.

Those who pass by in state police vehicles see the law-breaking banners and continue without even turning their heads, let alone taking punitive measures.

Therefore, what were once sporadic cases have recently turned into a massive, unnerving phenomenon for citizens.

So the crap is increasingly widening the crater, similar to volcanic lava that, due to the lack of stopping barriers, one day comes and burns everything.

The facts presented speak for themselves. They refute the daily statements and reports of the police regarding the successful management of traffic in the capital.

I hope that the same zeal that has begun (although still without a specific legal basis) for the ban on skateboards, the official police will also apply to Tirana's traffic management./ CNA
