A new bill in Cyprus proposes that drivers involved in accidents causing only material damage must move their vehicles to avoid traffic congestion and document the incident themselves.
Introduced by DISY MP Demetris Demetriou, the bill requires drivers to photograph the accident scene for insurance purposes and exchange personal and vehicle information.
They must also complete the European Accident Statement Form, either electronically or on paper.
The legislation aims to prevent traffic delays caused by minor accidents where drivers currently wait for insurance assessors to arrive.
