A large-scale raid on illegal migrant taxi drivers took place in Kazan.
The State Traffic Inspectorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in Kazan conducted a large-scale raid on illegal migrant taxi drivers. The main goal of the event was to ensure road safety. Special attention was paid to reducing the number of accidents involving migrants. Such drivers often get into traffic accidents due to insufficient experience, incomplete knowledge of Russian traffic rules, and the use of fake or illegal documents. During the raids, police not only suppress the activities of illegal taxi drivers but also violations of migration legislation. Employees of the Kazan garrison consistently apply comprehensive measures. These include fines, confiscation of vehicles, cancellation of work permits, and deportation of violators. The raids represent a comprehensive measure aimed at increasing safety, legalizing the market, and protecting the interests of passengers. The expected result includes a reduction in accidents, an increase in legal transportation, and an increase in trust in taxis as a safe mode of transport. A total of 84 administrative offense protocols were drawn up against 61 taxi drivers. Police detained and moved 20 taxi vehicles to a special parking lot. They also detained and delivered 12 foreign drivers to territorial police departments.
