This was announced at an extraordinary briefing by outgoing Prime Minister Kiril Petkov."We have decided to declare war on all recidivist drivers, especially those who drive after having used drugs , Petkov said.

The driver, former Levski football player Georgi Semerdjiev, who has about 50 traffic violations, fled the scene and a Sofia police officer helped him hide, but he was later detained. Outgoing Interior Minister Boyko Rashkov said Semerdjiev had had his licence revoked since 2005, but had been driving various vehicles until today.
