Relatives of victims of road accidents are organizing a national protest against the war on the Bulgarian roads this evening in Sofia. 

The protesters will gather at 6:00 p.m. in front of the Presidency building and from there they will march to the pedestrian crossing on the capital's Shishman and Gurko streets, where a drunken driver killed a 15-year-old boy last Saturday. 

Citizens call for an adequate prevention and punishment policy for violators on Bulgaria's roads.
