Parking for disabled people - how to obtain a parking permit?

Car parking, especially in big cities, has become a real problem, a large number of paid parking lots have appeared. In February 2016, a Government Decree appeared, according to which the parking rules for disabled people of groups 1, 2 and 3 radically changed. From the article you can learn about how to obtain a parking permit for disabled people, the features and nuances of the procedure.

As it was before

Until recently, the use of parking for disabled people was not clearly enshrined in legislation; the text of the resolution did not mention the need to have a certificate of disability; there was no information that the right to install a “Disabled Person” sign does not apply to cars transporting healthy citizens. The sign could be installed on any vehicle in which disabled people are systematically or periodically transported.
At the same time, the traffic police inspector had the right to punish anyone who stopped in a designated parking space, regardless of the presence or absence of a disability certificate. Although, according to the law, such a certificate was not included in the list of documents that the driver must present to the inspector. Fine for illegal parking was only 200 rubles.

New rules

In 2019, who has the right to park in a disabled parking lot? Today, the driver of a vehicle with the identification sign “Disabled” is required to carry and present to the traffic police officer a certificate of disability. If a vehicle is driven by several drivers, and not all of them are disabled, a quick-removable identification plate must be installed on the vehicle. In accordance with the traffic rules, benefits for paid parking for disabled people apply only to disabled people of groups 1 and 2, as well as to any group during transportation. Thus, a driver without health limitations also has the right to purchase and install a “Disabled Person” sign, but he no longer has the right to stop in parking lots for the disabled. If a certificate of disability is presented, which is not necessarily issued in the name of the driver, no fine will be issued.

Parking spaces, norms

What GOST is on road sign disabled parking? Parking spaces are marked with special markings and an identification sign “Disabled”, which schematically depicts a person in a wheelchair.
Within megacities, double markings are provided; in this case, markings for 3 ordinary cars are applied to two vehicles allocated for disabled people.
Currently there are the following requirements for parking spaces:

• 10% of the total area - parking lots located close to public places;
• 20% of the total area - parking lots near hospitals, hospitals, clinics and other special institutions that can be visited by patients with musculoskeletal disorders.

The exit to the sidewalk (if available) is equipped with a special ramp, convenient for exiting onto the road or parking lot. The width of the curb should start from 90 cm, the curb should be painted yellow, and installed in the corner of the parking lot.
What is the size of a parking space for disabled people according to GOST? The width of the parking space for disabled people is 3.5 m, which is one meter more than the space for a regular vehicle. This is caused by the need to fully open the door when the driver or passenger exits; such dimensions allow you to avoid creating inconvenience. When allocating two or more parking spaces for disabled people, they should be located side by side, which will double the free space between vehicles.

Registration of permission

How to obtain a parking permit for a disabled person in Moscow? Even privileged categories of citizens are required to obtain a parking permit; the document is available for registration in any city within 10 days, regardless of registration. The duration of its validity is a year, you can get it on the city services portal or at the MFC, the document is issued for vehicles owned by a person with disabilities or the guardian of a disabled child.
What documents are needed to obtain a parking permit for a disabled person? When completing documents, in addition to the application, you must present the passports of the disabled person and his legal representative. If the appeal is submitted by a representative of a disabled child who is not his parent, a document confirming his authority must be provided. It is also necessary to provide a certificate of disability/extract from the examination report. The consideration will be suspended if the Department of Social Protection does not have information about the disabled person.

Responsibility for violating the rules

How much is the fine for parking in a disabled space in 2019? Just a few years ago, the fine was only 200 rubles, and as a result, drivers abandoned their cars anywhere. Despite the increase in the amount of penalties, car owners continue to violate the rules; in this regard, the issue of tightening penalties is being considered, including the deprivation of a driver’s license and the initiation of legal proceedings.
Today the following penalties are established by law:

• 5 thousand rubles - for individual;
• 10 - 30 thousand rubles. - for an individual;
• 30-50 thousand rubles. - for an official.

In addition to the fine, transportation of the vehicle to the impound area is also provided; the vehicle can be returned only after the fine has been paid in full.

21.03.2019

IN recent years penalties for parking in in the wrong place are constantly being tightened, today a driver can pay a tidy sum for a number of violations in this area. Moreover, it is almost impossible to challenge such a fine, and, as we know, there are no mitigating circumstances on the road.

The law is especially harsh on those who try to occupy a disabled parking space without justification. The traffic police requirements here are so strict that even for a disabled person, such parking can cost a pretty penny if he forgets about the formalities.

Disabled parking fine

Very often you can hear the following phrase from drivers: why was I fined, because I only stopped for 2 minutes? However, in this case, the law is harsh and is interpreted unambiguously; as soon as the car enters the parking lot, a violation has been committed and it is almost impossible to challenge it.

In accordance with Article 12.19. According to the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, starting from 2011, a driver for illegal parking in a space for disabled people is punishable by a fine of in the amount of 5000 rubles.

Interestingly, traffic police inspectors are very fond of these violations.

• Firstly, there are a lot of violators.
• Secondly, such violations are very easy to prove in court.

Therefore, “bread” places do not remain without the attention of traffic police for a long time.

Despite the severity of the punishment, the number of violations here remains quite large. But it is steadily decreasing; according to the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate, drivers here practically never relapse, since the price for this offense is high, not only for an ordinary driver, but also for a representative of the middle class.

Why do we need packages for the disabled?

Any person with disabilities can stay at regular parking. However, if the clinic, for example, does not have free space, park a block further and walk to the place on foot, for a disabled person, serious problem, and therefore it is humane to ensure that socially significant objects always have free places.

Other important reason appearance large quantity special places for cars of people with disabilities - this is the law "ABOUT social protection disabled people in the Russian Federation" requiring the organization of special parking in all parking lots, municipal parking lots, areas near supermarkets and private paid parking lots. A total of 10% of the parking space should be allocated for these purposes.

Violation of this law, according to Article 5.43. Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, entails a fine, which For legal entities is 50,000 rubles. Of course, it is much cheaper to install a penny sign than to pay a tidy sum after each inspection.

Disabled parking signs

By current rules parking for disabled people is marked with three signs.

• Parking (No. 6.4)
• Disabled person sign (No. 8.17)
• An auxiliary sign indicating the parking area.

As an auxiliary sign, special markings are often used in parking space 1.24.3, which is a rectangle measuring 1.6 by 0.8 meters with the symbol “disabled” inside.

Places for disabled people near supermarkets

And so, according to the law, every tenth parking space near parking lots near shopping centers and supermarkets must be reserved for people with disabilities, but are they in the zone under the jurisdiction of the traffic police, and will a fine be issued if you stand in this place.

Here the answer is clear: if the driver is caught in this violation, a protocol for an administrative offense is immediately drawn up, and a fine will have to be paid. According to the law, everything, and not just this, traffic violations in any parking lot are the area of ​​responsibility of the road patrol service. The supermarket or security workers themselves cannot act as the rooting authority. They can only politely ask you to move to another place, or report violations to the traffic police.

Who is the disabled parking for?

Special parking is intended for disabled people of groups 1 and 2, with the appropriate identification and sign on the windshield of the car. Moreover, even if the driver has a sign, they can check his documents.

However, the law takes into account that not all disabled people are able to move independently. Many people use specially adapted cars, regular taxis, cars of relatives and friends, or delegate control of their transport to others.

In this case, you can install “Disabled” on cars and stop at a special parking lot. However, only if he is in at the moment transports a person with disabilities. In other cases, the permit is not valid and the car must be parked under general conditions.

Violation of this rule or illegal installation of a “disabled person” sign on a car is punishable in accordance with Articles 12.4 and 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation a fine of 5,000 rubles.

There are situations when there is a disabled person in the car, but there is no corresponding sign on the car. For example, a neighbor asked to take him to the supermarket or urgently needed to take a person to the doctor. This is not considered a violation. The traffic police officer must personally issue a fine, making sure that the driver or his passenger does not have a certificate for disabled people of the 1st or 2nd group. Only in this case will the violation be recorded by law.

Many people believe that there are too many places for disabled people and nothing will happen if they take one of them. However, we must not forget that the new infrastructure for people with disabilities was created so that they could live full life ordinary person, as much as possible. But not for ordinary drivers to put themselves in the shoes of disabled people.

Car parking, especially in megacities, is now a problem. You have to pay for space for your car. However, citizens with health limitations often do not have free money. Because they don't care legally stands out free parking for disabled people.

The regulatory framework related to paying for parking is changing rapidly. Let's look at what people with disabilities should expect in 2019.

Legislative framework

Who does the benefit apply to?

TO preferential categories include drivers directly driving vehicles of all disability groups, as well as vehicles transporting disabled people, including disabled children. A vehicle applying for a free parking space must display a “Disabled Person” identification badge, issued for personal use by authorized executors at the federal level.

For the practical implementation of the benefit, it is necessary to obtain a parking permit for the car. The rule for providing it looks like this:

• one disabled person = one car.

How the benefit is issued

Let's consider the algorithm for obtaining a parking certificate using a capital example. For Moscow drivers, the parking problem is perhaps more pressing than for residents of other cities. To obtain the treasured document, you must contact any multifunctional center (MFC).
