As you know,
Russian traffic police officers still have such a concept as a "plan
according to protocols." This is the minimum number of protocols that an
inspector must draw up in a month. If this is not done, then, at least, he will
not see a prize. So the road guards are trying, resorting to some tricks.
Let's say, in the
dark, a certain driver is heading home. At the same time, on the road, he
unexpectedly notices a rather large obstacle (a large branch, a fallen road
sign, etc.).
The first thing
that comes to a person's mind is that the obstacle must be removed so that it
does not interfere with the passage of transport. To do this, the driver gets
out of his car and goes to the actual obstacle.
And here, like in
a movie: the headlights of a patrol car are lit and the traffic cops with
contented faces go to the unlucky motorist. The joy in the eyes of the
patrolmen is that most Russian motorists forget to put on a reflective vest at night before leaving the vehicle. This
means that a protocol will be issued and the driver will have to pay a fine.
Therefore,
whatever good intentions do not guide you, be sure to wear a reflective vest
before getting out of the car at night. This will protect you from a possible
collision with another vehicle and a fine.
