The checkpoint starts work at 8.00, the bus stops only at 8.30, despite the fact that it starts from the south at 6.00. The driver says - if you want to go faster, go on foot. That's what we do, it's cold, poor grandparents. Pregnant women and those with children are allowed to pass well. The time to get from Donetsk to Volnovakha, by bus, is about 5 hours. For money, 100 UAH from the Southern to 0 checkpoint, 10 UAH from zero to Ukrainian, and 40 UAH from Ukrainian to Volnovakha.
Terrible queues, employees work very slowly, it feels like they don't work at all, but stupidly walk back and forth. Boorish attitude towards people and drivers. Everything is a mess. Process organization- 0! People with babies have to stand in line for hours. In about an hour, 6-8 cars are allowed to pass.
