During investigations of criminal offences of this category it is extremely important for an investigator to have proper access to the scene of an accident and to develop their own algorithm of work. According to the results of our study of the statistical data and materials of criminal proceedings (cases), we have found out that a lot of criminal cases in Ukraine were closed for various reasons for the past three years. In particular, there were registered 88 cases according to the constituent elements of offence, provided for in Art. 276 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine in 2011. There were 5 cases closed by procedure, and 67 ones taken to courts. In 2012, there were registered 53 cases according to the constituent elements of offence, provided for in Art. 276 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. 13 of them were closed by procedure, and 71 cases were taken to court. And in 2013, the rate got worse since out of 237 registered cases according to the constituent elements of offence, there were 1429 closed by procedure and 11 ones taken to courts. Taking into consideration these data, it is timely and necessary to update scholarly attention to the key aspects of the issues, to develop the mechanism of improving current legislation and the algorithms for the proper functioning of investigators.
