Accidents occurred on the streets:

  2. On Pavshinsky Bridge, near the interchange with Oruzheiny Bridge.

  3. On Kurkovaya Street, near house 18.

  4. Three road accidents at once on Oktyabrskaya Street — from the Weapons Museum to house 22.

  5. Two road accidents on Sovetskaya Street, near the intersection with Krasnoarmeysky Avenue.

  6. On Ryazanskaya Street, at the intersection with Gorodskoy Lane.

  7. Lenin Avenue, near house 145.

  8. Another road accident occurred in Maslovo, on Yamskaya Street (near house 1a).
