New changes in traffic regulations have prompted drivers to change tactics when interacting with inspectors. One of the popular methods has become quickly turning off the engine when stopping.
A representative of the traffic police noted that this turns off the dashboard, allowing you to hide possible malfunctions of the car, such as indicators of the ABS system or other safety systems.
