R. Požėla has addressed all the people who want to ride a bicycle, but do not know if it is legal. According to him, it is possible to contact a police number and inquire about a specific situation and the possibility of going to another municipality.
The Commissioner General of Police specified that additional checkpoints would be installed at the entrance of municipal centers, and both public and non-public means would be used, such as surveillance cameras, tripods, etc., for controls in other areas.
Already on Monday, the Interior Minister, speaking about the control of long-distance movements, assured that police officers will carry out intensive traffic inspections on weekends and holidays. There will not be a permanent intensive control regime, as this would involve a large amount of financial resources in the first place.
“It will definitely not be the case that the movement is blocked from 1pm night and make sure someone on the road checks all passersby. There will be more physical control on holidays and weekends, and on normal days, especially during the working week, the means that the police know how to use as public and non-public will be used, ”Prime Minister Ingrida Šimonytė said on Monday.
According to the decision of the Cabinet of Ministers, residents are prohibited from leaving their municipality without very important reasons.

As there are no restrictions to travel abroad, movement between municipalities is allowed in the case of traveling to the airport.
A provision has also been introduced that will allow officials to assess whether the reason given by residents for the trip is serious enough, even if it does not meet the conditions set out in the Government Resolution.
“There is an evaluative provision where it would be possible to evaluate, simply in light of the specific circumstances of an official, if there is a situation in which a person is suspended, if it really is some special circumstance that he should go to another municipality,” said the prime minister at a government meeting on Monday.
