And another piece of good news: Hyundai’s engine plant is restarting in St. Petersburg. The workers who avoided layoffs are already returning to full-time work. However, it is still unclear how the Koreans managed to solve the problem with the supply of parts. It is not clear where this company will ship the engines – most likely to Kazakhstan, but who knows.
Speaking of car factories in St. Petersburg. The Toyota site, abandoned by the Japanese, passed to the US – as happened with the Renault and Nissan enterprises, when the alliance decided to part with Russia. Under the agreement, details of which were not disclosed, the institute received the rights to the building, equipment and land. But what will happen to this wealth now is a big question.
And the last important news of the past week is that the regional authorities and manufacturers of automatic restraint complexes have made even more dubious proposals. Firstly, to increase the statute of limitations for traffic offenses from the current two to twelve months. Secondly, to allow the installation of cameras not only in the centers of accidents, but also in those places where the concentration of accidents can be predicted. Third, to return fines for exceeding the average speed, which haunt the “room lobby”.
