Recent reports indicate fatal road collisions in different regions of Bulgaria. In late September, a 71-year-old man died following a collision between two passenger vehicles on the road between Varna and Dobrich near Stozher. The driver of the second vehicle, a 26-year-old woman, was hospitalized with injuries and reportedly tested positive for methamphetamine.

In mid-October, a 72-year-old woman died while being transported to a hospital after a collision between a passenger car and a truck on the Lukovit-Cherven Bryag road. The accident led to traffic diversions through Radomirtsi and Ruptsi, prompting the Road Infrastructure Agency to urge increased driver caution in the area.
