It was reported that in Tashkent city, a traffic accident involving Lacetti and Kia K5 cars resulted in the Lacetti car splitting in two, as previously reported.

In a video released by the Traffic Safety Department, the father of one of the minors stated that his son took the car while he was asleep.
"He took it while we were sleeping. I myself was surprised that day. My son committed such a crime. Because I was careless, I am also partly responsible for this," he says.
The mother of another minor stated that she was unaware that her child was driving a car.
"I didn't know my child could drive a car. Because we are people who never gave him the keys. I have my own personal car, but he never sat in it," she says.
For reference, it was previously reported that Uzbekistan plans to increase liability for individuals who allow minors to drive cars.
