The bill also introduces criminal liability for repeat offenses of driving under the influence and tightens penalties for violations during the training and retraining of drivers. Additionally, the requirements for vehicles using alternative fuels, such as liquefied gas, will be increased.

According to the provided data, last year in Uzbekistan, there were 9.3 thousand traffic accidents, resulting in 2.2 thousand fatalities and 8.9 thousand injuries.
