Payable on the spot, traffic tickets are a very serious thing for most Belorussians. Not for Vladimir.
Most people travel by taking the bus.
During rush hour the buses are filled far beyond capacity. I felt shame, gazing at the people packed so closely together, while Vladimir and I sat in his spacious Audi. The main road leading to the factory. Most people live in tall apartment blocks, but many continue to live in the beautiful Belorussian style houses alongside the road. The Music Maker factory.
