The situation in the area of Ayia Napa is uncontrollable and extremely dangerous due to the use of four-wheeled motorcycles by both tourists and locals.
As shown in the videos below, some people drive the four-wheelers recklessly, as a result of which they hit pedestrians and a motorcycle driver during his work.
The shocking videos, which cause outrage and intense reflection, have been making the rounds on the internet in recent days.
As citizens tell philenews, four-wheeler drivers rally on main roads where many people circulate, especially during this period when the area is flooded with tourists, as we are going through the summer season. "Until mid-September we are afraid to take to the streets," they say. At the same time, they denounce the absence of members of the Police from the area.
In the meantime, the Municipality of Ayia Napa sent a letter to the Minister of Justice and Public Order, Anna Koukkidou-Prokopiou, requesting the prohibition of four- and three-wheeled vehicles from July 19 to August 20 between the hours of 21:00 and 07:00.
