From November 12 to 22, the special operations “Filter” and “Web” will take place.

From November 12 through 22, the State Traffic Police personnel were placed on enhanced duty status. The corresponding decision was made by Minister of Internal Affairs Ivan Kubrakov.

Traffic patrol crews have been tasked with “promptly preventing incidents of drunk driving and driving without a license, including those involving minors.”

“Special operations ‘Filter’ and ‘Web’ are planned. Round-the-clock monitoring will be carried out using the Republican Public Safety Monitoring System. In addition, the Traffic Police will increase the number of mobile sensors to monitor traffic violations,” the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported.

These measures were taken due to a rise in traffic accidents caused by drunk and unlicensed drivers. Over the past 10 days, there have been 12 such accidents in the country, in which nine people were killed and 15 were injured.
