In Krasnoyarsk, a driving instructor taught future motorists how to become drunk (video)

In Krasnoyarsk, police detained an instructor from one of the driving schools who taught a cadet while drunk. This was reported to the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the region.

Employees of the traffic police regiment stopped a training vehicle on Turgenev Street. During the check, it turned out that the driver was drunk – the breathalyzer showed 0.325 mg/l. The instructor admitted that he drank champagne before class. Administrative material was drawn up against the man under Part 1 of Art. 12.8 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, the sanction of the article provides for a fine in the amount of 45 thousand rubles and deprivation of the right to drive for up to 2 years.

In his defense, the instructor stated that his whole life had collapsed and he could do nothing but drive a car.

“His words sound like an admission of despair, but in no way justify his actions. Such behavior is unacceptable for a person whose profession is related to the formation of a responsible attitude towards traffic rules and road safety,” law enforcement officers commented on the situation.

Currently, traffic inspectors are conducting an inspection against a driving school that allowed a drunken instructor to go to work.
