Citizens, frightened by partial mobilization, showed an unprecedented desire to change places. Fearing to receive a summons at their hometown, they saddled up their “iron horses” en masse and left for the Black Sea. Fortunately, we have a seaside resort like Sochi. There you can not only sit outside, but also correct the nerves exhausted by the television news. However, many face a serious disappointment. The AvtoVzglyad portal tells what serious losses the forced road trip “south” leads to.
Let’s start with the good news. The road from Moscow to Sochi is free. There are no pickets and cardons. Checking in in the city is not difficult either. Traffic cops only slow down rare cars. In general, they have daily work, and not some sort of robbery, where the military “wooles” everyone in a row.
The traffic jams have decreased significantly compared to the summer. Previously, there was a heavy traffic jam from the Khostinsky Viaduct to the city of Kurortny. It is about seven kilometers. Now everything is free.
It is also strange that traffic cops rarely visit the city. According to the old resort tradition, they catch reckless drivers on the Adler-Krasnaya Polyana highway. The locals say that along with the road guards, they also noticed the army. That’s just the pilots of Lamborghini and Ferrari for some reason, they are all absolutely unfit for military service.
But the “herd” of rented “Mustangs” and “Camarros”, who were “highlanders” along the same route, became noticeably thinner, as citizens began to save money. Firstly, because hotel prices remain high and to live to the fullest, very high incomes are needed.
As far as the private sector is concerned, an apartment and an “apartment” in a resort are two major differences. The real estate market is absolutely wild and an unprepared citizen risks losing a lot of money. For example, an “odnushka” in “Khrushchev”, in the area of Bald Mountain, costs 3,000 rubles per day. The sight of this property reminds you of terrible stories about witches and wizards who lived in such mountains. Besides, in addition to rent, you also have to pay utility bills. Their prices are comparable to the “price lists” of the capital. So it is definitely not possible to get a good and cheap job.
The next question is where to put the car. This is a serious problem! Places on the wharves have long been divided among the locals. Even chains and “frogs” are used for this. When a visitor puts his car “out of line”, a scandal, up to a fight, ensues. That’s why many “under-mobilized” cars leave behind in vacant lots or near abandoned houses. Nobody touches them there except petty thieves who remove mirrors, wheels and break windows.
And drivers have to be very careful especially at night. Roads in the city are generally good, but with surprises. In the most unexpected places you will find deep pits and potholes. The locals know them, but the “bzdykhs” who come in large numbers don’t find out until the wheel hits a hole and a deep cut appears in the tire. This becomes a real problem as there are very few tire shops in the city. Winters are warm and most drivers don’t change their “shoes” at all. It is not easy to buy a wheel of the right size. For him you have to go to the car market in Adler. And even then, there aren’t all sizes.
In general, Sochi, as in the past, attracts. But no one canceled such a thing as “money sucker”. So there is no need to rush here and go without a financial buffer. Better to choose another city or join the army. They say they pay well.
