PSOE councilor José Zapata reports that traffic fines complaints rose from 487 557 in the first quarter of 2012 to 2.6 million euros in the same period this year, a fivefold the number of sanctions that have been set by ordinance violations circulation.

Despite seeing worsened working conditions, the Socialist councilor commended the actions of local police for their commitment, for example, as we noted in the regulation of traffic during the weekend festival held on SOS 4.8, especially who participated in the search for young deceased fell into the river Segura.

Not be so exaggerated increase of breach of traffic rules insists the PSOE mayor - who says that "everything seems to point to an excessive desire for raising the PP has no qualms about bum to residents of the municipality building on any means possible: rising fees and public and making them fined 500 per 100 more than were fined.
