Four traffic accidents caused by minors occurred in the Nizhny Novgorod region during the holidays.
In all cases, children were operating motor vehicles. Four accidents caused by minors were registered in the Nizhny Novgorod region during the May Day holidays. This was reported by the press service of the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. Eight people were injured in the traffic accidents. In all cases, children aged 12 to 16 were operating motor vehicles. The police draw the attention of parents and legal representatives of minors—by allowing a child to operate a vehicle, you are taking a step towards the potential for children and teenagers to sustain injuries that can lead to irreversible consequences—from disability to death. "Dear parents, before giving your child a dangerous gift in the form of a motor vehicle or allowing them to ride it, please review the news feeds of traffic accidents involving peers of your wards and refrain from such actions," the police noted. Due to a lack of driving skills, disregard for traffic rules, and protective gear, in 2025, police identified 876 cases of traffic violations by children under the age of 16. In the first four months of 2026, 110 such incidents have already been recorded. Currently, checks are being conducted and materials are being collected for submission to investigative authorities with the aim of holding the parents and legal representatives of the traffic accident perpetrators criminally liable.
