The Saeima, Latvia's parliament, adopted amendments to the Road Traffic Law on 29 October that widen the use of the agreed accident notice. This is a document that the parties to a road accident complete by mutual agreement.

Under the amendments, starting next year the notice can be filled out even if more than two vehicles are involved in the accident. It will also be available in cases where the property of a third party has been damaged.

The source report gives no further details on how the new rules will be applied.
