I stopped him and asked for local insurance. He immediately began to talk like you and boldly. I didn't have it, I read the law before entering Abkhazia, it doesn't say compulsory insurance, and they would probably have told me at the customs checkpoint. But no, he tells me the opposite, and says I'll take my license now, switching to speeding.why are you violating, you're driving 75 at the 40 sign. You've already violated it 2 times, now I'm going to take your license away, and he shows a rustle of fingers, hinting at money. He pretended not to notice and started asking where?Please show me that I drove according to the rules and couldn't break them. To which he says, you're arrogant! violated, I must say, punish me!Don't argue with me! I tell him, I'm not arguing with you, I'm just asking for a photo or video of my violation. Realizing that I couldn't be separated, he handed over the documents and said something in his own language, I think he wished me a good trip.

They are being bred for money, we were driving a car rented in Sochi, only us were stopped from the whole stream, at first they wanted to get hold of the insurance, but it was done in advance, the employee took the license and STS in his hands and told my husband to get out of the car and follow him. They took him to the back to some kind of room, another employee was waiting for him there and started talking about the fact that we had violated the speed limit somewhere, we were driving 63 km/h at the allowed 30, and the camera recorded us in some tinted car on the side of the road They couldn't provide any evidence to their accusations, they showed some kind of left-hand photo and said "there was a camera there," and they couldn't find this record at all, because "there are 10 such cars on the way, where are they even looking for this record now?" They threatened to take their license or car and go on vacation., and pick up everything on the way back, well, or pay a fine of 6K As a result, they "took pity" and agreed on 3k, gave back the documents and said "if you keep going at this rate, you won't get far" In general, my impressions of the country and my mood were ruined for the rest of my vacation, and all the time we were just thinking about how we were going to get back. We definitely won't consider this destination as a trip anymore.👎🏻

If you want to plunge into the atmosphere of the nineties, then you will at least go to this poor "country" and at most visit this main attraction, everything is waiting for you here, from threats to extortion of money out of the blue for no reason, as well as you will be shown amazing tricks with a device for measuring alcohol intoxication - which is a miracle at the end of 3 days after drinking a bottle of beer, it will show you some crazy values, in general, I strongly advise you not to go to this homeless place, the attitude is as disgusting as possible to tourists, and to all the "staff" of this post, I wish you all to die as soon as possible, as well as your mothers, wives, children and all relatives)
