Greek authorities are implementing stricter regulations and significantly increased fines for common offenses. New rules prohibit setting up tents on beaches, aiming to protect coastal areas and public access. Drivers caught using mobile phones while driving now face penalties ranging from 300 to 3000 euros. The measures, reported by BNR’s Athens correspondent, represent a toughened stance on public order and road safety. Officials state the increased fines are intended to deter violations and ensure compliance with the new regulations. These changes are part of a broader effort to manage tourism and improve public safety during the peak season. The government anticipates these measures will help preserve the natural environment and reduce traffic accidents.
