The Prosecutor General’s Office checked how drivers are trained and retrained in Belarus. Attention was paid to driving schools: the qualifications of teachers, the material and technical base, the condition of training vehicles, the procedure for enrollment, the implementation of curricula and the safety of classes.

The main goal is to achieve, including through prosecutorial response measures, strengthening discipline in the process of training drivers, forming in them sustainable skills of safe driving, reports the Prosecutor General’s Office.

A whole list of violations was found in one of the driving schools at the Minsk transport company:

  • improper equipping of classrooms and the driving range with training equipment;
  • failure to comply with the requirements imposed on the design of the backup braking system and the backup clutch control system of the training automobile;
  • use of outdated lesson plans for a number of subjects for conducting theoretical classes;
  • conducting practical classes to improve driving skills in the dark between sunrise and sunset;
  • the absence of a medical certificate of health for certain students confirming their fitness to drive a motor vehicle, and conducting practical driving classes with them;
  • failure to assess students’ performance of all mandatory elements on the driving range at the first stage of the practical exam;
  • failure to fully ensure fire safety requirements.

    • These deficiencies did not contribute to students acquiring full knowledge and driving skills, and created the risk of accidents, which could lead to other negative consequences.

    In this regard, in a submission to the general director of the enterprise, the Deputy Prosecutor General demanded that the identified violations and the causes and conditions that contributed to them be eliminated, as well as that comprehensive measures be taken to ensure the proper level of the educational process.
