The Federation Council recently passed a law that tightens the procedure for obtaining a driver’s license for citizens who have been deprived of the right to drive vehicles. In short, the nut for those who like to drive “poshof” was tightened even more. However, this is far from the limit: in China, which we now not only target, but emulate, it is even worse with drunk driving.
Drunk driving is the third accident on Russian roads, which is not very common to speak out loud. But there is a problem, and it is extremely serious. In the Moscow region, traffic police officers conducted a raid during the May holidays to identify drunk drivers, which resulted in a fantastic “catch”: several hundred drunken “coxswains” were caught on the spot, and 40 people managed to drive drunk, having already had their driver’s licenses revoked for a similar traffic violation. Neither a fine of 300,000 rubles nor the criminal case was stopped. And that’s just caught ‘by the hand’.
The seriousness of the problem is almost critical, because a drunk driver is the most dangerous situation on the road. So the initiative, which has become law, is understandable. With the tandem of alcohol and the steering wheel, something urgently needs to be done. Well, since it is now the custom that we are equal to the Celestial Empire in everything, it is not a sin to find out what is happening on China’s roads.
Let’s say right away that there are no fewer drunk drivers, but the methods of struggle are much more aggressive and strict. The thin strings of the soul, the wallet and the very life of the offender in China, no one protects. Caught – punished in the broadest sense.
One of the most powerful levers to pressure the guilty in China is public disapproval. Photos of offenders are broadcast on screens, pasted on bulletin boards, using public opinion in every possible way. The portrait on the pillory, as practice shows, works great, and for a long time.
Sometimes you think: was it worth it? But that’s not all: the offender is pasted on the rear window of the car with a special hieroglyph, indicating that a remorseful drunk is driving. Of course every traffic jam neighbor looks disapproving. But these “penalties” are only for those who have violated minimally, are about to. I got off easy, so to speak. For those whose actions had consequences, the punishment is much worse.
In China, the permitted amount of alcohol in the blood is 0.02%. If there is suddenly more blood in the blood, the minimum fine is $ 307 and 15 days of arrest. If an accident occurs, someone else’s property is damaged – a year in prison. Well, if people suffered, for example, there was a collision with a pedestrian, which caused injuries incompatible with life – the death penalty. Without any analysis, letters, appeals and the like. Perhaps such an argument will change the mind of the average Russian, who prefers to drive for a bottle that is not enough to complete happiness by car?
