Citizens dissatisfied with the government of Boyko Borissov and Chief Prosecutor Ivan Geshev held a car protest rally in Sofia. It started from the building of the Bulgarian National Bank and reached the exit of Sofia to the Trakia Motorway near Vrana Park, as the cars were moving at 20 kilometers per hour. 

According to the organizers, the aim was to show that the anti-government protests that began in early July have not ended. This is the second car protest rally organized by the protesters, who changed the form of their protest due to the anti-epidemic measures.
