Huge lines at the Hungarian borders like there is no pandemic

Change language:

Due to guest workers returning home for the holidays and the modification of pandemic measures, huge lines of waiting cars were formed on Sunday morning at several border control points entering Serbia.

Those who wanted to leave Hungary at the border checkpoint of Röszke by car needed to wait 5 hours, and those travelling by bus had to wait 4. Meanwhile, buses entering the country also had to expect an entire hour of hold-up. Heavy traffic exiting Hungary was held up by 5 hours as well.

The situation was the same at the checkpoints of Ásotthalom and Tompa, too. At the former, cars were waiting for an hour while at the latter, they spent around 3 waiting. Moreover, at Tompa, heavy traffic was delayed by an hour in both directions, wrote autoszektor.hu
