There were no traffic regulation inspectors from the Traffic Safety Department on site, and a female taxi driver had to take on this task, standing in the middle of the road and directing vehicles.
In a conversation with Erkin Tynaliev, the deputy head of the Lenin District Internal Affairs Department, she mentioned that she had been trying to manage the congestion for about 20 minutes. She has been working as a taxi driver in this area.
While waiting for the Traffic Safety Department to arrive, the officers from the Lenin District Internal Affairs Department began to control the traffic themselves, and after the inspectors arrived, they continued their patrols.
