What are the impacts of
this issue
The level of noise is considerably
influenced by the fact that the major part of motor transport stock
has served for many years and is obsolete and depreciated. Most of
the vehicles imported into the republic are automobiles with a
service life of 7 and more years. There is no legislation specifying
the maximum age limit of imported vehicles, and customs taxes do dot
stimulate the import of new automobiles.
The low quality of the thoroughfares, carriageway
pavement also leads to the rise of the noise level. The noise
pollution is also increased by the permanent repairs of carriageways
which is done by patching, using minimal mechanical aid, what causes
the necessity of new repairs every season.
