Driving or not?

Hi everybody
I just wanna ask if anybody knows how SAFE is driving through Bulgaria. I want to go to Bansko by my own car, but some friends told me that it isn't safe cause during driving I could be robbed etc.

Who told you you will be robbed? What a load of rubbish!

Boarder crossing will be very easy from 1st Jan. Keep your bribe in your pocket!

re: Driving or not?

having driven all over europe in a van,the bribe is only a couple of quid and believe me its less hassle to part with a couple of ££ than spend an hour or more while they go through your vehicle documents etc with a fine tooth comb
