In Ulyanovsk detained the driver of BMW, arranging a drift near the eternal flame

A dangerous ride on the square of the 30th anniversary of the Victory in Ulyanovsk ended with the detention of a motorist. A young man on a BMW made a drift near the memorial complex, drove into the oncoming lane and crashed into the curb, after which he fled. Now he faces not only administrative, but also possible criminal liability.

The incident became public on October 10, when a video of the violation appeared on the Internet. In the footage, the BMW car moves with a skid over the area of the 30th anniversary of the Victory. At some point, the driver loses control, finds himself on the oncoming lane and runs into the curb.

Employees of the traffic police quickly established the identity of the motorist and detained him. The offender was a resident of the Ulyanovsk region born in 2001.

During the inspection, it turned out that on the day of the incident, the young man changed the state registration plates on the car. In respect of him, administrative materials were made under parts 3 and 4 of Article 12.2 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, as well as under part 4 of Article 12.15 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation for leaving for the oncoming lane.

In addition, the police began an administrative investigation under part 3 of article 12.19 and part 2 of article 12.27 of the administrative code of the Russian Federation. They concern violations of the rules of stopping and parking, as well as failure to fulfill the duties of the driver after an accident.

A separate inspection is carried out because of the scene. Since dangerous maneuvers were carried out near the memorial complex “30 years of Victory”, law enforcement officers are considering initiating a criminal case under Article 243.4 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which provides for liability for damage or desecration of military memorials.

The final decision on possible criminal prosecution will be made following the results of the inspection.
