In Bashkortostan, a teenager who had been drinking drove a car with five people aboard, according to Mash Batash.
Danil, 17, from the Baimaksky district, had acquired an old VAZ-2110 through part-time work at a sawmill. Lacking a license, he decided to drive to a disco in a nearby village, accompanied by a friend and four girls whose names he cannot recall.
On an icy stretch of road, Danil lost control of the vehicle, which veered into a ditch and rolled over. The passengers were hospitalized in Sibay, while the driver escaped unharmed. One passenger suffered a fractured skull and another sustained a fractured rib; the remaining occupants were treated for bruises and torn ligaments and sent home. Investigators from the police are examining the case to determine responsibility and contributing factors.
Separately, a report noted that a woman driving a Kia in the Kuban region struck two schoolchildren who were crossing the road.” [Mash Batash]
