Ordinary Russians Against Corruption

From Moscow Times:
"Angry Drivers Take Stand Against Flashing Blue Lights"

It is about time that ordinary Russians stand up for themselves and against government corruption (and this is a form of corruption.)While this is very common in Moscow and Saint Petersburg I have even seen it a few times in Yaroslavl. There is a main square (Soviet Square) that is surrounded by government buildings and is closed to all cars except those with special permits. Of course this issue is much worse in the larger cities. The Russian government needs to stand up and take action. The government officials who are abusing their powers and putting other people in danger need to be shown that what they are doing is wrong. I know that this kind of thing has always happened. In Soviet times not many ordinary Soviets had cars, but government officials did. I heard a joke once where a teenage son living in the Soviet Union asks his father: "Can I borrow the keys to the car?" To which is dad replies: "Yes, but be careful we are scheduled to get one in only 4 years." Now everyone seems to have one.
