Cameras for automatic traffic violation detection in Ukraine helped identify traffic rule violators among politicians. Journalists from Bihus.info analyzed the database of fines and found the names of well-known deputies and officials.
The most frequent speed violator was Anton Yatsenko, a deputy from the group ‘Party ‘For the Future’. In 50 days of photo detection work, his car violated the speed limit 60 times, often traveling at 148-165 km/h in areas with a 50 km/h limit. Oleksandr Dubinsky apparently also loves speed, as does his mother.
Cameras recorded 11 violations from him – in a Toyota Land Cruiser and a green Mercedes G-Class. For example, on Chokolovsky Boulevard, the Toyota SUV reached 114 km/h. So far, the ‘Servant of the People’ deputy has only paid one fine. The first deputy head of the Presidential Office, Serhiy Trofimov, exceeded the speed limit five times. Notably, the official has honestly paid all his fines.
