If a disabled person parks in a regular place. Parking for a disabled person: rules, sign action and fine

If you think that only healthy motorists are punished, then you are mistaken; in Moscow now even people with disabilities are fined. disabilities.

I used to think that everyone except people with disabilities had to pay for parking in the center of Moscow. For them, parking should have remained free. To take advantage of the benefit, you must receive a special disability permit and you can park without spending money. It would seem that everything is fine, but there is one detail (and the devil, as you know, hides there). A disabled person can park his car free of charge only in a specially designated place (marked with a sign or marking “parking for disabled people”).

Everything seems to be good and logical so far. But what should a disabled person do if he came somewhere on business, but everything special places are you busy? Apparently, you can park nearby in a regular paid space and go about your business. But no. First you need to pay general principles for parking: 80 or 50 rubles per hour. After all, if you don’t pay, then the disabled person also receives a fine of 2,500 rubles on a general basis. It also turned out that if a common person parks in a parking lot for the disabled, he will receive a fine, even if he pays for parking.

Unbelievable but true. And there are already such precedents.
The owner of the car received a disabled permit, but left the car on usual place(because all disabled parking spaces were occupied) for which 9 (!) fines totaling 22,500 rubles were received. So what kind of concern for disabled people is this?

This is what a disabled permit looks like

I specifically asked the AMPP (Parking Space Administrator) if everything was correct, if there was any error? Everything was confirmed. If a disabled person finds that all special spaces are occupied, then he must ride in circles until a space is free, or park on a general basis for money. Well, would it really be a disaster if a disabled person took one “paid” place, if his rightful place was taken by some violator? Really better than a disabled person fine him as if he were a scoundrel, and then collect the last money from him?

This is attention to the disabled, you can’t say anything. By the way, no one warns about this, of course, when a permit is issued. What for? After all, in this way you can earn money not only from ordinary drivers, but also from disabled people. I have heard more than once that even residents who have signed up for a parking pass in their area often receive fines.

Either this is a disregard for citizens, or this is a completely conscious policy of the Parking Space Administrator in order to collect more money. Only you can draw conclusions, but do not forget that it is this organization that, in addition to paid parking, also controls.

On this moment In any civilized country, parking spaces are allocated for the personal cars of people with disabilities. They are placed near residential buildings, shopping centers, and also in special parking lots. These spaces are marked with a “Disabled Parking” sign. Currently, their number is rapidly increasing, this is due to the growing number of people with disabilities. In our country, people with disabilities are treated with respect and understanding, which is why they build new parking lots and provide other benefits.

Parking design

Seats for disabled people are organized in a different way than regular ones. So, if the width of a regular parking lot should not be less than 2.5 m, then for disabled people it is 3.5 m. This is due to the fact that people with the door fully open should have room to unload the stroller. And only then, when all the manipulations have been completed, you can drive between other vehicles without any problems.

The disabled parking area consists of several spaces in a row. For example, if a parking lot allocates three spaces for people with disabilities, they should be located next to each other. Firstly, it’s much more convenient. Secondly, this will expand the area between cars several times. This will make it easier to perform the maneuver without hitting other cars. If two places are located next to each other, then overall width of this site decreases by 1 m, while the free path grows by 2 m.

Disabled parking

Car park owners must provide spaces for people with disabilities. If this requirement is ignored, a fine will be paid. According to the law, each parking area must have parking spaces for the disabled.

In the Code of Administrative Offenses (Code on Administrative violations) there is an article regulating this issue. So, for the lack of parking for disabled people, a fine of 3,000 to 5,000 rubles is imposed. After this came into force, parking lot owners had a choice: constantly pay a fine or create special parking spaces. Most chose the second option, and it is now rare to find a parking lot that does not have an area for people with disabilities.

Number of parking spaces

According to the law, places for demons paid parking for disabled people should occupy at least 10% of the total. Usually the area for people with disabilities is located close to the entrance. This place is indicated by a special sign and corresponding markings.

Near businesses and clinics that specialize in the treatment of the musculoskeletal system, about 20% of the area is allocated to accommodate parking spaces for the disabled. It is worth noting that the owner himself has the right to decide how many such zones he will have in his parking lot. The main thing is that this amount does not fall below the minimum level.

Politeness is paramount

Parking in a disabled spot is a sign of incivility and disrespect for these people. Signs and markings are always clearly visible from afar, so the reason “didn’t notice” is not relevant here. Even if no one is in this position, and you urgently need to go to college or work, you shouldn’t do this. Anyway, healthy person It won’t be difficult to walk 100-150 meters, but for a disabled person sometimes 10 meters is an insurmountable distance.

In addition, a fine of 5,000 rubles is provided for parking in a disabled spot. It is worth noting that this is the largest fine for wrong parking. Traffic police officers are often on duty near shopping centers, catching violators. Fortunately there are quite a lot of them. Parking in a disabled spot is a temptation that not everyone can resist. Inspectors catch those who are too impatient, issuing a fine, and sometimes there is no need to park your car in these places, show basic respect.

People who can park in such spaces

Only people with disabilities can use specially designated parking spaces for their cars. These include disabled people of the first and second groups. A person who transports people with disabilities - adults or children - can also leave the car. Contrary to general opinion, the sticker on the rear window of the car is optional and does not confirm status.

Free parking is for people who are. The driver must have with him a standard set of documents confirming his status. This list includes a medical certificate and a certificate of a disabled person of the first or second group. As for the sticker, it is usually fixed behind the rear or windshield of the car so that people see and behave more carefully on the roads.

What are the dangers of an unauthorized sticker?

If you have no documents and have a sticker, you will be fined the same 5,000 rubles. It is worth understanding that disabled parking is intended for people with disabilities, and if you do not confirm this, then you are deliberately breaking the law.

It is not always possible for a disabled person to drive a vehicle independently. Often he is carried in a special car designed to transport people with disabilities. A disabled person can also travel in simple cars (family and friends, taxis). Drivers Vehicle, who do not always, but rather rarely transport such people, can install a sticker. But there is one limitation: only for the duration of transportation of a disabled person, and provided that he has everything Required documents, confirming the status. If the driver has not removed the sticker and continues to drive around the city, then when checking the documents, traffic police officers will issue a fine.

Incorrect installation of the sticker

This is taken quite seriously, and any violation of the rules for installing a sticker will certainly entail a fine. The Code of Administrative Offenses has an article that regulates this situation. If a “Disabled Person” sign is installed on a vehicle without the appropriate permit, this entails a fine of 5,000 rubles.

If the car constantly transports a person with disabilities, a parking permit must be issued. Then there will be no problems with the law.

Sign and markings

Specially designated places for disabled people are usually located no further than 50 m from hospitals and clinics, as well as other institutions that they can visit. It is worth noting that areas for people with disabilities are indicated by signs and markings, according to the rules traffic.

The “Disabled Parking” sign applies only to the designated space. A sign must be attached next to the sign, which notifies everyone that this parking lot is intended only for people with disabilities.

As for the markings on the road, they are a copy of the sign and are applied yellow. If you see markings, but there is no sign nearby, you can park your car. However, the pattern on the road is often difficult to discern due to snow, dirt, slush, etc.

It is recommended to install the sign at the end of the designated area. The driver who approaches the parking lot must clearly see it. If the sign is placed at the very beginning of the parking lot, then people may think that the entire area is reserved for places for people with disabilities.

Some features

Almost every institution in Moscow has parking for the disabled. Whether it's a hospital, clinic or shopping mall. Parking for the disabled is often located close to the sidewalk. In this case, it is necessary to equip a ramp. This is driving from the sidewalk into a parking lot or road. It is carried out by lowering the level of the curb; the width of the ramp should be at least 90 cm.

It is best to place the curb in the corner of the parking lot so that the entrance is always clear and is not blocked by a parked vehicle. If two specially designated places are located next to each other, a common entrance from the sidewalk is made. It is located at the end of the path, which is located between the cars. The border is painted yellow.

It is worth noting that the issue of convenience and making life easier for people with disabilities is discussed quite often. The country's parliament is creating new bills aimed at improving the lives of people with disabilities. There are and should be parking lots for disabled people in all Russian cities. Traffic police officers carefully monitor violators who want to leave their car in this place. They face a fine of 5,000 rubles. Be human, there is no need to break the law, especially regarding such a delicate topic. Respect people with disabilities, because no one is immune from such a fate.

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 invalids.

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 metropolitan 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).

A disabled person's parking permit is provided to all citizens Russian Federation, regardless of registration.

Features of using parking benefits

As in any other area, the issue under consideration has its own nuances. Let's clarify the most common mistakes that lead to problems.

1. Parking spaces for beneficiaries are marked with a special sign. That is, if there are benefits, it is necessary to park the car only in the designated area.
2. If a disabled driver (the person transporting him) occupies a space that is not equipped with a special sign, then you will have to pay for parking on a general basis.
3. Families raising a child with disabilities can apply for a parking benefit for only one car. As a rule, this is a vehicle owned by the parent.
4. The legal representatives of people with disabilities are their relatives, parents and other persons registered by law.

It took many years to eliminate the loopholes in the laws that allowed anyone who had the impudence to stand in “disabled” places. There are no loopholes left, but difficulties have arisen for conscientious drivers. Let's look into the details, which ones.

The essence of the reform

In February 2016, Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 23 of January 21, 2016 “On Amendments to the Traffic Rules of the Russian Federation” was officially published and came into force. This document radically changed the parking procedure for disabled people and persons transporting disabled people. From now on, they must have on their vehicle not only a special sign, but also a document confirming their disability.

As it was before

Until recently in regulatory documents there were certain omissions that allowed unscrupulous drivers to enjoy benefits that were not intended for them. The traffic rules, in particular, stated that if there is a sign 8.17, the effect of sign 6.4 “Parking (parking space)” applies only to motorized wheelchairs and cars that have the “Disabled” identification sign installed. In other words, by installing such a sign, the driver could park in places intended for disabled people. Regardless of whether the driver is disabled or not!

Without the “Disabled Person” sign, the right to preferential parking did not arise, although such a sign was not mandatory for traffic. In the “Basic provisions for the admission of vehicles...” it was said that, at the driver’s request, the identification mark “Disabled” “in the form of a square” can be installed on the vehicle. yellow color with a side of 150 mm and a symbol image road sign 8.17 black - in front and behind motor vehicles driven by disabled people of groups I and II, transporting such disabled people or disabled children.”

There is no mention in this text that the installation of a “Disabled Person” sign is only permitted for disabled drivers. This sign could be installed on any car in which “disabled people are transported” - systematically or occasionally. And there was not a word about a disability certificate.

At the same time, anyone who stopped in a parking lot intended for the disabled could be punished by a traffic police inspector, regardless of whether the driver had a certificate of disability or not. Although here is a paradox: according to the law, the inspector did not even have the right to demand this certificate from the driver.

The list of required documents that the driver must have with him (clause 2.1.1 of the traffic rules) did not include such a certificate. Until 2011, the fine for parking in a disabled person’s space was only 200 rubles. It is clear that such an amount could not stop the scammers, so the list of documents was expanded to include a certificate of disability, and the administrative penalty was increased significantly.

New parking rules for disabled people

So, now, according to clause 2.1 of the traffic rules, the driver of a motor vehicle is obliged to carry with him and, at the request of police officers, hand over to them for verification a document confirming the fact of disability, in the case of driving a vehicle on which the “Disabled” identification sign is installed.

That is, you can take advantage of additional “benefits” when parking a car and driving under signs 3.2 “No movement” and 3.3 “Motor vehicles are prohibited” from February 2016 only if the “Disabled” identification sign is installed on the car.

If the car is used by several drivers, and not all of them are disabled, you need to purchase a quick-release identification badge, for example, on suction cups. And do not forget that in accordance with the traffic rules, benefits apply only to disabled people of groups I and II, as well as to any group when transporting disabled children.

Of course, a physically healthy but dishonest driver can still easily purchase a “Disabled” sign and install it on his car. But calmly stop there disabled parking he won't be able to anymore. At least in theory. The traffic police inspector has the right to demand that the driver present a certificate of disability, not necessarily his own. If there is one, then the driver is not issued a fine.

What about in practice?

True, questions have arisen, the answers to which can only be given by law enforcement practice. If a disabled person is actually being transported by car, can the driver leave the car in the parking lot marked with sign 6.4 with sign 8.17. It looks like there are options here. After all, even if the driver rightfully occupies a parking space for the disabled, he now must always have an identification card or medical certificate with him, since the “Disabled Person” warning sign pasted on the glass is not proof of the right to park.

They brought, say, a disabled person to a clinic, where he may have to show the doctors his ID or certificate. If the driver remains in the car, then he does not have a document confirming the right to park. Therefore, it is better to leave the car and return to the wheel only with a disabled person. What if a disabled person does not need a certificate, for example, in a shopping center? Does he have the right to hand over the document to the driver? And won’t the inspector have any doubts that the car is actually carrying a disabled person, and not just his papers?

This is perhaps an almost insoluble problem. The driver brought the disabled person to the station, parked in the parking lot for the disabled and went to accompany him to help him board the train. Upon his return, the inspector asks him to present his documents, but the disabled person has already left by train. If a “Disabled Person” sign is installed on the car, the driver faces punishment, since he does not have documents confirming his disability. And if the sign is removed, the car can be towed. Therefore, you will have to take care of a second accompanying person or, after disembarking the disabled person, remove the sign and move the car to a general parking lot.

Many people ask whether in such a situation it is possible to have a notarized copy of disability documents with them. But the lawyers just shake their heads sadly. Unfortunately, according to the traffic rules, police officers need to submit for verification “a document confirming the fact of the establishment of disability,” and not a copy of it. After all, many copies, even notarized ones, can be made, but a disabled person can only be transported in one car.

Thus, we have to state:

The driver can hang up the “Disabled Person” sign and enjoy benefits only if the disabled person is nearby and agrees to give the driver a document confirming the disability.

People with disabilities, but without obvious signs disability, we must keep in mind that traffic police inspectors will now ask them to confirm their status. If you don’t have any documents with you, then after imposing an administrative penalty, it is pointless to prove your special rights in court. To have the right to park, you must have the certificate with you.

It is also unclear why sign 6.4, together with plate 8.17, applies only to motorized strollers and cars. If the driver is a disabled person of groups I and II or transports disabled people on a motorcycle or, say, an ATV, then he has no right to enjoy privileges.

What is the penalty for a fake certificate?

What to do with those who purchased fake certificates or certificates of disability? Such “fake” pieces of paper can still be bought in the underground passage or at the station. Most likely, the inspector will not “punch” your documents through the database. But if he has doubts and wants to check the authenticity of the submitted certificates, then the driver faces not only an administrative fine.

The fine itself, not for lack of documents, but for illegally installing a “Disabled” sign and for driving a vehicle with such a sign, amounts to 5,000 rubles for citizens. But a more serious punishment for the use of knowingly forged documents is provided for by the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - a large fine or even arrest for up to six months.

Frequent cases in private parking lots

Unfortunately, real disabled people also have problems. Thus, in non-state parking lots, spaces for disabled people are provided for by the law “On the social protection of disabled people in the Russian Federation.” The capital also has Moscow Law No. 3 of January 17, 2001 “On ensuring unimpeded access for people with disabilities to social, transport and engineering infrastructure facilities of the city of Moscow” (as amended on November 21, 2007).

It says, in particular: “In parking lots and in places where vehicles are parked, regardless of the form of ownership of the parking lots, up to 10 percent of the spaces (but not less than one space) most convenient for entry and exit should be allocated for parking special vehicles disabled people. Parking areas are equipped with special signs. Disabled people, as well as persons transporting them, in cases where disabled people have contraindications for driving vehicles, use parking spaces for special vehicles free of charge.”

However, there are complaints that when entering a shopping center, the driver is asked to take a parking card, and when leaving, it turns out that the electronic machine cannot recognize disability documents, and the security guards do not even know that disabled people have the right to free parking...

Features of metropolitan life

There are peculiarities when using parking spaces intended for parking vehicles of disabled people in paid parking zones, which are organized in Moscow and St. Petersburg. In Moscow, for example, you additionally need to obtain a preferential parking permit for a disabled person (see Help). It is issued at the MFC (multifunctional centers) or on the website of the Moscow Public Services portal. In this case, the data of the disabled person’s car is entered into the parking register.

Payment for parking in Moscow is controlled by mobile photo and video recording systems that run along city parking lots. They can check online whether the data about a car parked in a space for disabled people is entered into the Parking Register as a car for a disabled person. If not, a fine will be generated automatically.

Parking permits for disabled people give the right to free 24-hour parking in places marked with sign 8.17 “Disabled”, as well as with markings 1.24.3. On everyone else parking spaces Parking is provided on a general basis (for a fee).
