Protesters stopped trucks on the side and going to stand up until the "Platon" is not canceled.
The action takes place in the Udmurt Republic, the Orenburg, Astrakhan, Amur areas and St.-Petersburg.
The action was planned, despite the fact that Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev on 24 March signed a decree on increase of the tariff system "Platon" only 25% (twenty five percent), whereas previously the fee had doubled in size.
Thus, the fee for trucks from 15 April per kilometer will be 1 rouble 91 copeck, not 3 rubles 91 kopecks, as previously planned. Previously, the Association of carriers of Russia announced that March 27 will host the truckers in which will take part not less than 10 000 (ten thousand) drivers.
