A Kirov resident was convicted in Ukhta for causing the death of a person in a car accident.
A truck driver was convicted of violating traffic rules that caused a person's death and the infliction of grievous bodily harm, the Ukhta City Court of the Komi Republic reported.
The court said the fatal accident occurred in November 2024. A Kirov resident, driving a MAN truck with a trailer along the Syktyvkar—Ukhta—Pechora—Usinsk—Naryan-Mar road, failed to take into account weather and road conditions and was driving at excessive speed. The long-haul driver lost control, causing the truck’s trailer to be thrown into the oncoming lane, where it collided with three passenger cars. A passenger in one of the cars died. Another person sustained serious bodily injuries.
After considering the case, the court found the Kirov long-haul driver guilty under part 3 of Article 264 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and sentenced him to two years’ imprisonment. Under Article 53.1 of the Criminal Code, the custodial sentence was replaced with compulsory labor with 10% of his wages withheld for the benefit of the state. The man will be required to work at a correctional center. In addition, he was prohibited from engaging in activities related to operating vehicles for two years.
The court also decided to consider the victim’s civil claim for 2 million rubles in damages in accordance with civil procedure.
