In the Sverdlovsk region, a bus hit a pensioner to death at a crossing: several violations were revealed.
At 40 Ten Lauktiabriya St. in Nizhnyaya Tura, a 58-year-old PAZ bus driver (route #102) did not give way to a 60-year-old woman at an unregulated crossing. She died on the spot from her injuries.
The man who was driving was 35 years old and was sober at the time of the accident. The driver says he did not notice the pedestrian.
The audit revealed a whole bunch of violations. The bus's fog lights did not work, and the driver's work and rest schedule was violated - administrative materials were filed against the driver himself and against the official.
The road also suffered: at the place of the tragedy there is no crossing lighting, markings or signs, and the asphalt is slippery in the winter. On the basis of this fact, proceedings were opened against the Committee for Housing and Public Services, Transport and Communications of the Nizhanturinsky District Administration.
The issue of opening a criminal case is being decided.
