Today, Kyzylorda Region Akim Nurlybek Nalibayev held an emergency meeting on child road safety. Representatives of law enforcement agencies, heads of regional departments and agencies, and city and district akims participated.
The regional Akim sharply criticized the accident involving a private kindergarten vehicle due to inadequate coordination between the heads of the responsible departments and ordered appropriate action.
«I have previously issued multiple instructions to city and district akims, the police department, and the education department regarding transportation at private and public kindergartens and schools, as well as child road safety. However, this work has still not been properly organized.
The violations that occur during transportation at private kindergartens indicate insufficient police oversight.
We must strengthen the work of the Operational Control Centers, especially the patrol police, opened in Kyzylorda and all districts, and keep the child safety situation under strict control!
We urgently need to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the state of transportation at all educational institutions in our region, identify any non-compliant conditions, and take action.
Strictly monitor road safety, including on the grounds of educational institutions, and conduct regular raids», - said N. Nalibayev.
Head of the regional police department, Serik Ergeshov, noted that, according to an order approved by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, vehicles transporting children must have two doors, a restraint system, and a yellow flashing light with the inscription «Children Transported».
During the investigation into the implementation of this order, administrative protocols were drawn up under Article 474 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan against 29 legal entities, 75 vehicles were fined, and state registration plates were confiscated from 58 vehicles. Since the beginning of the year, approximately 800 administrative violations have been identified. Appropriate measures have been taken against drivers who violated transportation regulations. These raids will continue until the end of the year.
At the meeting, the education, culture, and sports departments, as well as city and district akims, were instructed to ensure strict oversight of children's safety not only in educational institutions but also during sports and cultural events.
