Ukrainian motorists are becoming bolder in enhancing their cars to make them better. However, not all modifications are safe and legal, warns the State Service of Ukraine for Transport Safety.
The most common 'creative' changes relate to lights and batteries. Installing bright bulbs or a smaller battery can lead to fines, technical inspections, or even accidents. Experts advise consulting with the manufacturer or service before making any changes to avoid problems on the road.
Better to check than to fix – this is the main advice for car enthusiasts who strive to make their vehicles perfect. Avoid illegal or dangerous modifications not only to save your pocket but also to stay safe on the road for yourself and others.
