The prosecutor's office has started an inspection of transport companies in Yekaterinburg following yesterday's tragedy.
In Yekaterinburg, the prosecutor's office is conducting an inspection of transportation companies that carry passengers, the Sverdlovsk region prosecutor's office reported on Thursday morning.
Yekaterinburg prosecutor Igor Korelov instructed the district prosecutors of the city to organize inspections of transportation companies that carry passengers in the territory of Yekaterinburg.
They will check compliance by carriers with licensing requirements when operating vehicles, the execution of the terms of concluded contracts, including approved routes of movement.
Particular attention will be paid to the technical condition of buses, their inspection before being put into service, and compliance with the rules for conducting technical inspections.
Compliance with legal requirements during medical examinations of drivers, as well as adherence to the established work and rest regime for drivers, will also be checked.
Complaints from passengers and road users regarding unlawful actions by drivers will be analyzed, including violations of traffic rules or changes to the approved route of movement.
If there are grounds, appropriate prosecutorial measures will be taken.
Recall that the day before in Yekaterinburg, due to the fault of a bus driver, a 49-year-old citizen of one of the Central Asian countries, an accident occurred, resulting in the death of four pedestrians on the spot—three adults and a minor child. Three of the five injured required hospitalization. Investigators detained two individuals—the bus driver himself and the director of the transportation company (according to 66.RU, the bus route is serviced by the company "Avto Nom").
