Romanian Minimum Wage Hike Inflates Traffic Violation Fines

The Romanian Government decided, through Decision 1,051/10.09.2008, to increase the gross minimum wage to RON540 per month between October 1 and December 31, 2008.

 

Since the traffic violation fine point represents 10% of the minimum wage, according to Government Emergency Ordinance 195/2002 republished, with later amendments, one fine point will now reach RON54 starting with October 1.
