Polish media pointed out that private vehicles are banned from this part of the Tatra National Park. Entry is permitted only to official vehicles and those with special permits. Following a wave of criticism, the blogger claimed that he had allegedly not noticed the road sign and was unaware of the restrictions. He subsequently apologised publicly and admitted that he would not repeat such an act.

The Zakopane police stopped Gavriliv on his way back. The officers issued him with a fine of 100 zlotys and awarded him eight penalty points. However, this punishment drew criticism from the Polish public.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk also reacted to the incident, calling the public outcry understandable and instructing an investigation into all the circumstances of the case.
