I don't know, but a lot of east bloc had a quite high surveillance. There were often a zero tolerance for drinking, speeding... and they had people oversee main roads.

But as I said, no idea what that dude is supposed to do!

Zero tolerance for drunk driving? Crazy that one didn't have enough social inertia to stick around after the collapse. Then again, given the conditions in the 90s, maybe the chance to get home faster vs potentially die, taking random people with you looks like a win-win.
