For another year, traffic police in Vratsa and the Burgas region have stopped women drivers - not for violations, but to surprise them with a tulip and a greeting in honour of International Women's Day on March 8. The initiative in Vratsa took place under the motto: "You are awesome, drive with caution."



"It was very unexpected - I even got emotional! I dare say that we, women, are better drivers," commented one of the women who received flowers from the police officers, speaking to BNR's correspondent in Vratsa, Iva Antonova.
