Alexey Zovets saw the decrease in the number of road accidents as an indicator of economic problems.
Low traffic on the roads indicates that people do not have "money in hand".
The director of the Social Economy Research Center shared this opinion on the "Moscow Speaks" radio station.
The more people have money in their hands and the more they need to transport the industry, the more cars on the roads, the stronger the movement. The heavier the traffic is, the higher the number of accidents. If we want to understand what our economic activity is, we look at the number of road accidents. Today, the number of road accidents is much lower than November last year. The decline in the number of accidents only indicates that everything is not okay in the economy. We have no growth now.
