Ekaterinburg activists used the tragedy in the Moscow underground passage to advance their idea of ??abandoning underground transitions in favor of land-based ones as "cheaper and safer".

The news about the attack of a bus on people in an underground pedestrian crossing, the public site "Comfortable City | Ekaterinburg" in VKontakte accompanied by the message: "Hi" absolutely safe "," there will not be knocked out "and other arguments of opponents of calming traffic on the streets - tell them to the relatives of the deceased" (orthography , punctuation and style are saved).

After a wave of comments about the irrelevance of such statements in relation to this tragedy, the post was edited. However, the public administrator, urbanist Roman Tikhonov, insists on his idea in the comments: "It's about the fact that especially gifted people are shouting about the" absolute safety of underground passages, "however, as we see it is not so".

He was answered by the chairman of the Committee for the Protection of Motorists' Rights Dmitry Larionov.

Recall, the passenger bus drove into the underground in front of the metro station "Slavyansky Boulevard" in Moscow on the eve of the day. As a result of the road accident killed 5 people, 12 injured. The driver is detained and in the near future the police will interrogate him.

"I drove up to the stop" Slaviansky Boulevard ", this is the last stop. I had 3 people in the cabin, and I had to wait for another 15 minutes to land. A different bus pulled up behind me, I wanted to move to give way to him. When I removed from the handbrake, the bus went. I did everything to stop, but he did not stop. In the bus box machine, so nothing I could do more, "- explained the driver Viktor Tikhonov during the preliminary examination.
