In Moscow, within the eastern district of Golyanovo, a traffic incident occurred involving a pedestrian crossing a crosswalk with a scooter when a car struck him. This information comes from the Telegram channel Deptrans. Operatively, which reported the event.
The collision took place near building 26 on Altayskaya Street and was captured by a security camera. The video shows a motorcyclist moving rapidly along the roadway, with the scooter pushed aside as the rider accelerated. The scooter ended up on the pavement after the impact, while the car continued on to the opposite curb. Municipal crews arrived to assess the scene and determine the circumstances surrounding the crash. There has been no public update on the victim’s condition.
The crosswalk where the accident happened is not a standard, regularly shaped crossing. The relevant traffic regulations describe it as irregular in form. In addition, current road rules state that cyclists and users of personal mobility devices are prohibited from crossing at these kinds of pedestrian crossings.
As of June 1, there were changes announced regarding auto insurance for Russian vehicles, commonly referred to as green cards, which are recognized in the European Union, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland. The implications of this update for cross-border travel and local insurance claims are still being assessed by authorities and insurance providers. [Deptrans. Operatively]
