Not having a car in Russia is (was) hardly suprising. I'm told by someone who has visited there since during Communist times that "petrol stations" consisted of a tanker pulling up at a corner, after which a queue of customers would swiftly form. Roads between major cities were/are useless. (I guess all travel is/was by train or plane.)

The last thing you want a population to be that you're trying to oppress is to be independently mobile.

Ice on windscreen in the morning?
No Problem!

Simply instruct your wife to warm up the car for you (about 5 mins before you are going to leave)!

Simples!
