In Tobolsk, an 18-year-old woman appeared at the local traffic police office to take a theoretical exam as part of the requirements for obtaining a driving license. This information was reported by Tyumen region today. The student parked her Opel Astra inside the traffic police building and proceeded to complete the written portion of the licensing process. She successfully finished the test, and the exam appeared to go smoothly. However, colleagues in the vehicle inspection division observed her exiting the driver seat in a manner that raised questions about the subsequent steps in the licensing procedure.

Following the completion of the examination, the young woman attempted to leave the premises still seated behind the wheel. The officers intervened to assess the situation and discovered that she did not hold a current driving license and did not possess a valid OSAGO policy for the vehicle in question. As a result, she was subjected to administrative responsibility for driving without a license and for lacking the required insurance coverage before she could legally operate a vehicle on the road. The incident underscores the importance of completing all steps of the licensing process and ensuring proper insurance before taking to public streets. Authorities noted that the exam process must be followed by a proper verification of licensing documentation to prevent such oversights.

In Saratov, a separate road incident involved a dog that had been found lying on the roadway. The authorities indicated that the animal faced potential consequences under the traffic regulations, which may include penalties or measures designed to prevent further danger to road users. The case is being handled by the relevant administrative bodies, and the materials gathered will be submitted to the court for review as part of the standard process in animal welfare and road safety matters. Public safety officials emphasized that animals on roadways create unpredictable hazards and urged drivers to remain vigilant to prevent collisions and injuries to both animals and people.

Earlier events in Moscow involved an individual who allegedly caused a serious breach of property security by stealing the BMW belonging to the president of Spartak Academy and attempting to remove the steering wheel. The authorities have confirmed that investigations are ongoing to determine the details of the incident, identify the suspect, and determine appropriate legal actions. The case has drawn attention due to the high profile nature of the vehicle and the position of the property owner, highlighting the importance of safeguarding vehicles and enforcing laws against theft and unlawful possession of luxury cars. Reports from multiple agencies indicate that investigators are coordinating to build a comprehensive record of the circumstances surrounding the theft and the attempted removal of the steering apparatus.
