After each accident, he sends a petition to the Ministry of Transport to point out the danger. But nothing happens. Twenty-four accidents have already happened, but on the twenty-fifth everything is different: the first time the driver survives and the brothers are shocked to discover that it is the responsible ministerial director from the Ministry of Transport...
