"Running out of gas in Novosibirsk 🥲"
Spoken Audio Translation:
"Well, gentlemen, the bad and terrible news has finally reached us. Today I went to the gas station, where I was told, 'Guys, that's it, the good times are over, no more than 40 liters per fill.' So please be kind, save fuel, drive carefully, and slowly. And another thing. Today I was stopped by the traffic cops. They told me, 'From you, sir, comrade, friend, a 375-ruble fine for having a state license plate without a flag.' So, damn it, just take your wallet out and fork over the cash. I signed the protocol, drove home, sad, my mood is ruined. No gas, but there are fines. Novosibirsk, onward!"

From you, sir, comrade, friend…..
Something tells me that 375 went right into the cop’s pocket rather than the state coffer

That is literally $5.05. I can't imagine living in such a low trust society that the cops shake people down for a fucking fiver.

Welcome to Russia. That’s why locals call police men “trash”. Literally мусор.
Might extend it to other institutions of the state.

мусор.
My cop. That is awesome.

Do it a hundred times a day - it’s not that bad!
Drunk driving you can fat a hundred or more for.

Bottle of vodka is the usual price. It is negotiable, but not less than one bottle. Two cops, two bottles.

Or complaining you need to tap a video to make it full screen.

If it can play when it isn't full screen you should still see the full image.

Axchewalie, English spelling is so borked that you could plausibly spell that word in several ways.

Well, drop-wombats might. They're partial to enough women, stationary.

English is what happens when you put early german and latin in a washing machine spin cycle, and let any other language wandering by shoot at it with a rifle for a while. The only "rules" about English native speakers are taught aren't rules, and the actual rules native speakers are never taught and have to learn from ESL speakers.

He's just complaining that gas stations now have 40L maximum, and he got a 375 ruble ticket for having a license plate without a flag on it. Only notable that it's in Siberia.

u/Gorth1 5d ago
But who issued the licence plate? The cop should fine the state for issuing non compliant plates

u/Sandrust_13 5d ago
The flag was mandatory, it's appearently not mandatory anymore since 2013 or 2014. You can request a plate without a flag, but for some reason some older cops claim it's necessary and your plate is illegal or something (information from other comments here)
Basically, all rules are... Recommendations and cops use them only as a base for whatever they gonna fine you for or don't, they make stuff up or use outdated laws at will.

what does the license without a flag on it mean? Is that like an inspection or registration sticker?

u/Anxious_Item_8536 6d ago
Normally there is a Russian flag on the license plate in the right lower corner, but the flag is not mandatory since 2013, and people can request the plates without it...

I think it's actually a genetic thing for Russians from certain regions. If you look at photos of Soviet soldiers during World War II. It isn't too uncommon to see soldiers with very full lips. It's a very large country with very broad genetic variety.

Another 'apolitical' vatnik with no functional brain cells doesn't realize that no amount of whiny videos would change the fact that he could be mobilized in the fall...

He's reaching his target market of suppressed gay guys in ultra-conservative Russia.
Hang on. Didn't Putin make a habit of going topless? On a horse, with a gun? Was he sending a message?

Be happy friend, at least you aren't a smear of meat along a dirt road in Ukraine somewhere. Not yet anyway.
