Today, at about 09.40-45. I was stopped by a traffic police officer of the Pervomaisky district police department. I allegedly aroused his suspicion that I was intoxicated. I agreed with the claim. He blew into the phone. But then.... The senior lieutenant yelled at me: "get the car quickly." I wanted to close the window in my car, but he forbade me. At the same time, he took out a cartridge in the chamber. I.e., he pulled the bolt of the machine gun. My granddaughter of 4 years was in the car. She was very scared. And then they took me away. . I agree with the fight against drunkenness at the wheel. It is necessary to act harshly, but not by such methods. Your employees do not have enough culture, that is, they do not have enough. I will write about this separately.
I want to share my opinion on the exchange of a driver's license.
In the traffic police of the Minsk city Executive Committee (Timiryazeva, 114, middle entrance, 3rd floor), everything goes surprisingly very quickly! I didn't want to come here because it seemed a bit far, so I went to the
27 Kalvariyskaya Street (and this is the traffic police of the Ministry of Executive Committee!). I arrived for the first time at 10.30, stood for 15 minutes
under the scorching sun, the queue did not even move and left. The next day I arrived early in the morning at 7.10 and was the fifteenth in line. When I got to the "Acceptance of documents" window, they said that I had paid 74 rubles. and 1.48 rubles. to the traffic police of the Minsk City Executive Committee (paid through the ERIP) and that I had to go to
Timiryazeva,114. I don't want to describe my condition, because I've killed two days and I can't find decent words!
The next day, I went to 114 Timiryazev Street (traffic police of the Minsk City Executive Committee) at 8:00. No queues,
There is a separate hall for the exchange of a Driver's license, a sign "Driver's license exchange, 3rd floor" hangs on the door of the middle entrance of the building, you just need to pay attention to it. I was the sixth, at 8.05 they accepted my documents, at 8.10 they took a picture and I was free!!! To pick up the finished product from 16.00 to 17.00. I arrived at 16.00, there are no queues at the "Document issuance" window. He showed his passport, immediately issued a new driver's license and returned the medical certificate. That's it!!!
I was greatly relieved.
I wrote a long story, it hurt; I hope it will help others not to waste time and nerves.
And to the employees of the traffic police department of the Minsk City Executive Committee (Timiryazeva, 114), many thanks, they also have a "civil" building, there are benches in the hall where you can sit down and drink coffee and a toilet, and you do not need to depend on the weather!
