A criminal case was opened after a multi-vehicle crash on the M-12 highway near Arzamas.

      A criminal case has been opened over a road traffic accident involving buses and heavy trucks. According to the traffic police, on December 2 at about 18:30 at the 437 km mark of the M-12 "Vostok" highway, a driver operating a foreign-made BMW collided with a GAZ vehicle. As a result of the accident, the vehicles sustained mechanical damage.

      Then, the driver of a YUTONG bus, born in 1979, having violated the requirement to maintain a safe speed, collided with three vehicles that were stopped after the preceding accident — a DAF truck-trailer driven by a driver born in 1985, a Foton truck-trailer, and a YUTONG bus driven by a driver born in 1985. As a result of the accident, 14 people sought medical assistance — 1 driver and 13 passengers, including a 12-year-old child.
