Parking without a driver. See how the BMW i3 parks without a driver

In recent years, the problem of improper parking and driving on sidewalks has been actively developing. Realizing that this problem needs to be dealt with, groups of people unite in social projects fighting the impudence of drivers, but there is no result. The reason for this is the expensive parking spaces, which have increased in price by 20-50% and the annual increasing percentage of the country's residents with a car. All this undoubtedly affects the number of violations of incorrect parking, and they decided to raise the fines in 2015, deciding to further intimidate the impudent drivers.

It is worth noting that in cities of federal significance the size of the fine can be issued in doubled amount, according to the Administrative Code.

With the onset of the crisis and the growth of the ruble in 2014, many parking rules were changed far from in favor of motorists. Where previously it was allowed to park cars along the sidewalk, now they put up prohibition signs, and in the places of free parking there are notifications that it is now paid. Many drivers, accustomed to constantly parking in the same place, felt not very happy with the current situation, but nevertheless, the fines remain.

General information about improper parking and fines

Referring to article 12.16 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, part 4, we learn that:

"Failure to comply and ignore the requirements that are indicated by markings on the carriageway or road signs that prohibit stopping or prolonged stay of a vehicle in the wrong place entails imposition of a fine of 1,500 rubles».

An exception to this law is its 5th part for federal cities, namely St. Petersburg and Moscow:

“If the violation, which is provided for in Article 12.16 of the Administrative Code in part 4, is committed in a city of federal significance, it entails imposition of a fine of 3000 rubles».

Parking rules have become very stricter over the past few years, as mentioned above, and every year a part of free parking is now paid. Until recently, motorists tried in every way to avoid paying for downtime in paid parking lots, pouring mud on the numbers, screwing on other signs, covering the numbers with paper.

Recently, after a high-profile case in 2013, the RFSRF ruled that Article 8.14 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, Part 3, was declared invalid and no further penalties were provided for under this article. However, such a car now falls under the anti-terrorist law, which says that a car with difficult to read signs or suspected parking violation is now subject to evacuation. The cost of a tow truck is 5000 rubles. A fairly substantial fine for an unpaid parking space.

Parking on the sidewalk

The most common category of parking tickets is stopping on the sidewalk. Even having driven 1 wheel onto the curb or curb, the inspectors assess this as a full-fledged violation in accordance with Article 12.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of Part 3:

"Parking a vehicle with a distance of less than 5 meters in front of a pedestrian crossing, also on it, except for the cases provided for in part 6 or falls under the category of forced stop, as well as violation of the rule of stopping or parking on the sidewalk entails imposition of a fine - one thousand rubles».

Part 6 means a parking ticket in federal cities of Russia and reads as follows:

“Violations committed in parts 3 and 4, in federal cities are subject to a fine of 3000 rubles».

A fine for improper parking in places marked “for disabled people” involves a fine of up to 5,000 rubles. If a car has a "disabled" badge, this does not always mean that there is an opportunity to park in places for disabled people. If an inspector comes up to you and asks you to present a document confirming disability, but it does not appear, get ready to pay a fine, in accordance with Article 12.19 of Part 2:

“Violation of the rules for parking or stopping a car in a place designated for vehicles of disabled people without a disabled person's sign and documents confirming the existence of a disability, shall entail the imposition of a fine - 3-5 thousand rubles».

Parking at bus stops and minibuses

Stopping places for minibuses, buses and other public transport also fall under the territory that is prohibited for parking. A fine is also imposed for this. In this case, according to Article 12.19 of Part 3.1, the cost of a fine in the amount of 3,000 rubles is provided:

“Parking or stopping a car at a place where minibuses stop or closer than 15 meters from a stop sign (the exception is a stop for disembarking and embarking passengers, as well as cases of forced stopping) entails penalty - 1000 rubles».

Second row parking

You can often contemplate a situation when drivers stop next to a parking lot on the roadway, propping up 1 or 2 cars. Such violators face a fine of 2000 rubles, as parking in the wrong place, and a hindrance to traffic participants.

"Parking or stopping a vehicle on the carriageway, interfering with the free movement of vehicles or stopping in a tunnel, except in a forced case, entails imposition of a fine of 2,000 rubles».

In addition to paying the fine, the car can be taken to the car park. If you deliberately stopped and you urgently need to run somewhere, try to meet the deadlines before the tow truck arrives.

In search of free space, try to move carefully, not driving unnecessarily onto the bike path, otherwise you will face punishment in accordance with 12.15 of the Administrative Code of Part 2:

“Driving on footpaths, bike paths, or sidewalks entails imposition of a fine of 2000 rubles ".

Parking on the lawn

In the Code of Administrative Offenses and Traffic Regulations, there is a clear concept that such a lawn does not exist, however, driving on it is still fined. Such fines are negotiated locally, in other words, each region has its own size of administrative fines for driving through the plantings. For example, below is a legislative act of administrative violation No. 273.70 in the city of St. Petersburg:

“Destruction or damage of plantings, their felling or replanting without a special permit entails a penalty in the amount of from 3 to 5 thousand for individuals, from 10 to 30 thousand for managers and from 100 to 250 thousand rubles for enterprises. "

The amount of fines in any region of Russia depends on the status of the offender, as well as the total damage caused. Also important is the fact that in some regions there are no fines for parking on the lawn, however, there is a penalty for damaging the lawn (for example, the Samara Territory). Those. you cannot be fined under both counts.

Parking in the yard

Parking in the yard is one of the most problematic situations where not only the traffic police, but also the residents of your house can punish you.

  • Cars with active engine operation for more than 5 minutes if there is no loading / unloading of goods or boarding / disembarking of passengers. Particular attention should be paid to this item for those who warm up their car for a long time.
  • Trucks weighing more than 3.5 tons, if there are no special seats.
  • Car on lawns and sidewalks, if there are no special signs.
  • Violation of traffic rules data in accordance with Article 12.28 of the Administrative Code entails an administrative penalty with a fine.

"Violation of the rules for the movement and parking of the vehicle in a residential area shall result in a fine in the size of 1500 rubles».

“Violation of the rules for the movement and parking of vehicles in a residential area of \u200b\u200bcities of federal significance shall entail the imposition of a fine in the size of 3000 rubles»

It is worth mentioning that for speeding 20 km / h in the courtyard, you can also be fined. When parking near buildings, make sure you do not block the driveways to the houses for the passage of fire, ambulance, etc. according to article 20.4 of part 8:

Violation or disregard of the requirements for ensuring passages, passages, entrances to buildings, structures shall entail the imposition of a fine of 1500-2000 rubles for ordinary employees, for officials from 7 to 10 thousand and for legal entities from 120 to 150 thousand rubles.

All of the above violations of parking in the courtyard require the presence of a photo or video recording before drawing up a protocol. Without facts of violation, the traffic police officer will not be able to draw up a protocol.

Tow truck payment

In addition to issuing an administrative fine, the car can be taken to the penalty area and an additional fine for evacuation will be imposed. Payment for a tow truck in case of incorrect parking depends on the time spent in the parking lot and the cost of calling a tow truck.

You can avoid evacuating a car if you remove the car before it arrives, and you will still be charged a penalty for incorrect parking. If the car started to be loaded onto a tow truck, but it has not left yet, you have the opportunity to request unloading with an apology and an offer to park, but you will have to pay for the tow truck's arrival.

Fight against valet parking

If you are faced with a parking problem anywhere, you can file a complaint about improper parking or involve inspectors to bring the violation into the protocol.

If a persistent offender lives in your house, constantly parking not according to the rules and interfering with the passage / passage, you can send a photo to the traffic police. To find out in more detail where to send photos of incorrect parking, you can go to the sites 112.ru or mvd.ru... Select your region and upload the photo or video you took by filing a violation report. You can also print the report and bring it to the OGIBDD.

How to avoid a fine for violating a parking space?

There are situations when you really need to wait for a person for a couple of minutes or run into a bank or other building, but there is a sign that prohibits stopping at this place. You can avoid a fine, but only if the driver himself is inside the car.

According to paragraph 2.7 of the SDA, it is forbidden to drive a car in a tired and sick state, threatening traffic safety. Following the information from clause 7.1 of the SDA, in case of an emergency stop in a prohibited area, you must turn on emergency beacons and put up a sign.

Consequently, you can avoid a penalty for incorrect parking if you have an emergency sign with you and turn on emergency beacons.

In this case, the inspector can come up and ask about the reason for stopping in the wrong place. You, in turn, refer to clause 2.7 and avoid an offense. It is highly undesirable to refer to a painful condition, since the inspector has the right to call an ambulance and, having received a refusal, he will regard this as a deception. But even if you agree to call an ambulance, and the doctor does not reveal any pathologies, you will also be held accountable in accordance with 12.19 of the Administrative Code.

How to dispute a parking ticket

Many drivers are interested in appealing against a fine for incorrect parking, because illegal actions of traffic police officers happen, who often issue fines, even without a visible violation. There are also cases when 2 or more fines are imposed on a car with a difference of a couple of hours. In this case, it is necessary to appeal against illegal punishment.

The first step is to photograph the place where the car was parked, and then fix the absence of prohibition signs. Photos are attached to the written complaint. If the sign exists, then prepare yourself for the fact that physically you could not see it. You can refer to another alley that you have not passed or a sign hidden by foliage.

To write a complaint, you will need the following documents:

  • The complaint itself against the order concerning an administrative violation and copies of the order of both parties
  • Application for investigating a complaint without your presence
  • A written application for the restoration of the time limit for appealing an offense, if more than 10 days have passed since the execution of the fine
  • Other materials proving innocence (registrar's record, checks, etc.)

All documents are sent by e-mail or Russian post to the regional traffic police. You can bring documents to the department in person. Your complaint about the order must be reviewed within 3 days.

Penalty for parking without a driver

It is incorrect parking that is the main reason for the occurrence of traffic jams in large metropolitan areas, the authorities reasonably believe. In Europe, they have been successfully fighting for a long time with those who leave their cars anywhere. In a number of countries, blockers are put on the wheels of cars, in most - penalty receipts are simply slipped under the wiper. In Russia, by virtue of the legislation, neither one nor the other options are possible. And fines for incorrect parking are not critical for most drivers - only 300 rubles. For a long time, the violators were fought with the help of tow trucks, which moved the cars to the parking lot. However, firstly, such activities are costly (recall that the first day of parking is free), secondly, tow trucks create even greater congestion, since when loading cars they block another lane, well, and thirdly, a tow truck is simply cannot drive.

From July this year, fines for parking cars in the wrong place in Moscow and St. Petersburg will increase from 300 to 3000 rubles, i.e. tenfold. The same fine will be imposed on those who park at public transport stops and pedestrian crossings. So that the inspector does not have to be on duty next to each car while waiting for the driver to impose a fine on him, the traffic cops will adopt a new automatic video recording device, and the owner of the offending car will receive a fine by mail.

However, if the violation of the speed limit can be recorded using a stationary placed camera, then the situation with parking is more complicated. After all, the car can stop in the area of \u200b\u200bthe “Parking is prohibited” sign only to disembark the passenger (the stop will last less than five minutes) or park in the area of \u200b\u200bthe signs limiting parking on even and odd days. Therefore, mobile traffic police patrols will enter the city streets, which will record violations of parking rules.

At present, the State Traffic Inspectorate has begun to receive a Parkon device manufactured by the St. Petersburg company Simikon (it produces the Chris and Chris-P radars that are well known to almost every speed-breaker). The device is compact and is placed on the windshield of a patrol car. "Parkon" has two cameras - one wide-angle for fixing markings and road signs, the second - long-focus for license plate recognition. In addition, the device is equipped with a GLONASS / GPS receiver and infrared illumination.

The mobile patrol drives past improperly parked vehicles twice - more than five minutes apart. The video is recorded on an SD card, and then decrypted using a special program, tied to sections of the road network using recorded data from the GLONASS / GPS receiver. After that, all data is processed, checked by the operator, and “letters of happiness” with fines are sent to car owners. Parkon's developers say that all data written to the memory card is encrypted and cannot be edited. Thus, in theory, no one can escape punishment.

The new device was tested in Tatarstan, where its capabilities were highly appreciated by the traffic police, and at present it has begun to enter service with St. Petersburg traffic police. Interestingly, in the northern capital, patrols in order to identify parking intruders are carried out on cars without identification coloring.

In addition to the traffic police itself, individual operators of parking spaces are involved in issuing some types of parking fines (for example, AMPP in Moscow, SPB GKU "GTSUP" in St. Petersburg, MKU "OGPP" in Kazan, etc.), assistants of the traffic police (for for example, the Moscow Administrative Road Inspection (MADI) in Moscow, to which we can safely add environmentalists, district police and other semi-state functionaries.

In addition, the offenses imputed to the driver may differ in price. The amount to be paid for the parking fine, depending on the minor nuances of the location of the car and the form of its belonging to a physical and legal street, may differ a hundred or more times (!).

The most dangerous signs for a motorist who wants to park a car. The fine for parking under signs 3.27 and 3.28 is from 1,500 to 3,000 rubles.

And literally everything can be considered incorrect parking. From non-payment of paid parking and placing a vehicle under "prohibitory signs" 3.27 and 2.28, to parking on the lawn, on the sidewalk, contrary to the markings, on a narrow street, at a pedestrian crossing, at a railway crossing, on tram tracks, in places for the disabled, at public transport stops, with overlapping road signs, on the wrong days (even and odd), in yards (!), in the second row, etc. There are so many of these norms that hypothetically, any arrangement of a car can be considered illegal. Moreover, the fines for all these violations are different in themselves, while also differentiating depending on the region and the belonging of cities to the list of megalopolises of federal significance. That is, the same fine for parking a car is 2-2.5 times different in Moscow, St. Petersburg and the rest of the country.

It is because of this confusion, which suddenly arose 5-7 years ago, that the country's motorists are especially suspicious of everything connected with parking in the city.

On the other hand, for most situations, the picture described in the paragraphs above is of no practical use. The overwhelming number of fines for incorrect parking in Russia are issued either for parking / parking under prohibitory signs “parking / parking is prohibited”, or for unpaid idle time in a paid parking lot in the central part of the settlement. Another 10-15 percent are "thrown" cars on the sidewalk and in the green zone (on the lawn). Knowing the tariffication and the rules for using tow trucks in these 3-4 cases, the motorist can more or less feel comfortable in an urban environment.

Parking fine in Moscow 2018

The penalty for incorrect parking in Moscow, in 2017, is a separate topic of conversation. Let's start with the fact that the tariff itself for Moscow and St. Petersburg implies collection at least twice as much as in other settlements of Russia. From the point of view of the authorities, on the one hand, this emphasizes the higher standard of living of the residents of the capital, on the other hand, it has a more significant impact on the problem, which in the two largest megacities of the country has a particular threat.

However, Moscow parking fines differ in more than that. The capital of Russia is the only place where third-party companies help traffic police officers to catch drivers of parking violations. If there are still analogs of AMPP in Kazan, St. Petersburg and Nizhny Novgorod, then you will definitely not find anything similar to MADI in other cities of the country.

Employees of the Moscow Administrative Road Inspectorate, along with ordinary "traffic cops", monitor the parking lot under prohibitory signs 3.27 and 3.28. The portable devices with which the inspection officers are equipped are capable of "fine" any car, even if its owner has taken measures to hide the number plates.

How to check and pay parking tickets?

There are countless ways to check and pay traffic fines, including fines for incorrect parking. Some of them are associated with hiking in offices, queues and filling out stacks of handwritten forms. In pursuit of a penny profit, you can go along this path, however, if you have the Internet and you value your own time resources, the most adequate option is to pay a fine online /

To check and pay off the usual "traffic" fines there is a service "Traffic fines", if you need to check and pay a fine for unpaid parking, you should search the Internet for the official parking space of your city. The website - avtokod.mos.ru is a great help in paying fines for Muscovites.

Parking fines: history

Fines for parking in large cities of Russia cause the greatest irritation among motorists, and the procedure of forced evacuation associated with them turns citizens who get behind the wheel into real neurasthenics. The fine for parking, whatever it may be, is harder to accept than other penalties from the traffic police, since 90% of current drivers remember very well how a few years ago it was possible to leave a car on a central street without fearing for its fate. Raising prices is an ugly business, but it cannot be compared to the cost of something that was free yesterday. Conversations about air charges here spontaneously arise.

Meanwhile, paid parking, massive restriction of parking on central streets and other repressive measures regarding the storage of personal vehicles in urban areas are absolutely forced measures. There is little land between the houses and every year it becomes less and less - there are a lot of cars, and there are more and more of them. This situation cannot be resolved painlessly, here either the metropolis is in an endless traffic jam, or people, in accordance with their need and weighing the expediency, pay money so that the common land is temporarily occupied by an abandoned car.

Someone will say there are other options - to build interchanges and roads, to move jobs outside the city, etc. Unfortunately, the lion's share of these ideas is purely populism. Parking fines go away, but the costs of building and maintaining the grandiose infrastructure come in, the environment deteriorates, historical monuments perish, parking lots are torn apart by huge fields - the city becomes uncomfortable, uncomfortable for life. Only a few young cities in the USA and Canada have succeeded in becoming cities for motorists and not killing intracity traffic. However, firstly, they were originally designed as "autolends", and secondly, a policy of curbing motorism is being pursued there.

Can a parking ticket be disputed?

Since fines for improper placement of a car can be imposed by various authorities, at the first stage, especially when it comes to a technical error, it makes sense to contact the structure that directly made the decision in your case.

However, going to court always remains the most powerful and effective tool for finding the truth in such cases. 10 days are given to appeal the fine, samples of applications are available in the district courts.

In the event of an appeal against a parking fine, the court must submit all possible evidence of your innocence - photographs from the place of the alleged violation, road network diagrams, if necessary, shop receipts, information from social networks, etc.

At the end of your statement, it is important to describe the goal you are pursuing in court. For example, termination of an administrative case against you.

A number of parking fines can be appealed without leaving your home. In large cities, under the administration of parking spaces, specialized sites have been created, where you can set out the essence of the claim to the fine and attach the necessary documents.

How do I pay a parking ticket with a 50% discount?

The discount of fifty percent of the original amount of the fine, of course, applies only to those parking fines that are issued by ordinary traffic police officers. That is, the same traffic penalties that are issued under the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation and are assigned for parking cars under signs 3.27 and 3.28 (parking / stopping is prohibited).

But discounts on fines issued for unpaid parking at places for paid parking of cars may not be covered by the 50% discount. For example, GKU "Administrator of the Moscow Parking Space" (AMPP) does not provide discounts on fines issued for non-payment of paid parking. The fine in this case, according to the Administrative Offenses Code of Moscow, is 2,500 rubles and will not decrease under any circumstances. In some cases, motorists also experienced problems with a discount on fines from the Moscow Administrative Road Inspectorate (MADI).

How to avoid parking tickets?

No matter how trivial it may sound, parking fines can be avoided based on the basic knowledge of the Code of Administrative Offenses and Traffic Regulations. Legal nihilism and unwillingness to go into the nuances of something have played a cruel joke on the current generation of motorists.

Drivers follow the rule - park where everyone parks and don't park where no one parks. However, the good tradition of companionship does not work here. On dense central streets, despite all their overregulation, there are still places devoid of road signs, on which parking is not prohibited. Understanding how the system works, you can almost always find heels under your nose, available for parking even in the very center of Moscow.

  • Do not park under signs 3.27 and 2.28 prohibiting parking and stopping
  • Do not park on unpaved surfaces
  • Do not park on elevations separated from the carriageway by a curb
  • Do not park in close proximity to stops, zebras, railway crossings
  • Do not park second row
  • Ensure that public transport, including trams, can pass through the parking area
  • Do not park at the entrances and exits of yards.

9 Major Wrong Parking Fines in 2018 and Auto Lawyer Tips on How to Avoid Them

Anyone can park their car in the proper place, but for incorrect parking they can be brought to administrative responsibility. But how do you park your car correctly? What is the penalty for parking in the wrong place? And can the fine be disputed? In this article, you will find out the answers to these questions.

Parking according to traffic rules

First, let's find out how to park correctly according to traffic rules:

  1. Stopping and parking of vehicles is allowed on the right side of the road on the side of the road. In some cases it is allowed to park on the carriageway at the edge of the road and on the sidewalk. It is also allowed to park on the left side of the road if the road is single-lane for each direction of travel and there are no tram tracks, and the road itself is located in the territory of the settlement.
  2. Four-wheeled vehicles must be parked in one row parallel to the edge of the road. Two-wheeled vehicles can be parked in two rows parallel to the edge of the road (the vehicle must not have a trailer; otherwise, the two-wheeled vehicle must be parked in accordance with the parking rules for four-wheeled vehicles).
  3. When parking, you should also take into account road markings and signs. For example, in some cases, if there are appropriate special signs and markings, the car is parked at an angle.
  4. There are places where parking is prohibited - tram and railroad tracks, roadways, tunnels, pedestrian crossings, public transport stops, lawns, prohibitive markings, and so on. It is also prohibited to park on the carriageway of roads outside the built-up area if the road is marked with sign 2.1 (yellow rhombus inside white rhombus).
  5. After parking, you need to carefully open the doors of the vehicle so that they do not create interference that could cause an accident. The driver has the right to leave the car if he has completely stopped the vehicle and has taken all necessary measures to prevent the spontaneous movement of the vehicle without a driver.

Parking fines in the wrong place

For violation of the parking rules, the driver can be fined. The amount of the fine depends on the type of offense, the legal status of the offender, the region and some other parameters.

Tow truck services are paid, and the driver of the vehicle pays for them. Also, the driver will have to pay for the downtime of the vehicle on the penalty site for every day of downtime (if the downtime is more than 24 hours).

Thus, the total amount of losses for incorrect parking consists not only of a fine, but also of the costs of evacuation and a vehicle idle in the penalty area, if the driver is not next to the car when drawing up a protocol on an administrative offense.

Parking at a public transport stop

There are the following penalties for parking at a public transport stop:

  1. For parking at a public transport stop, the vehicle driver will be fined 2,000 rubles. If the offense was committed in Moscow or St. Petersburg, then the driver will be fined 3,000 rubles.
  2. It should be remembered that the driver of the vehicle has the right to make a stop in order to disembark or put a passenger in the vehicle, if the stop of the vehicle does not interfere with other road users. There are no penalties for this.
  3. If the driver of the vehicle stopped at a public transport stop in order to disembark or put a passenger in the vehicle, but the vehicle stop interfered with other road users, then the driver may be fined 1,000 rubles.

Parking on the sidewalk and crosswalk

Parking on the sidewalk and pedestrian crossing is prohibited. For violations of this rule, the following penalties are provided:

  1. For parking on the sidewalk and pedestrian crossing there is a fine of 1,000 rubles. If the offense was committed in Moscow or St. Petersburg, the fine will be 3,000 rubles.
  2. The penalty on the driver on the sidewalk or pedestrian crossing shall not be imposed in the event of forced parking, if the driver took all measures and removed the vehicle after the circumstances that led to the forced stop of the vehicle on the sidewalk or pedestrian crossing disappeared.
  3. It should also be remembered that not only parking is prohibited, but also driving on pedestrian paths and sidewalks. For ignoring this rule, the driver will be fined 2,000 rubles.

Disabled parking

Only those people who can confirm their status with documents are entitled to park in places for the disabled. Otherwise, the driver may be fined:

  1. For parking in places for disabled people, a person will be fined 5,000 rubles.
  2. A disabled driver must have a document confirming his disability. The traffic police inspector has the right to demand this document to make sure that the person is really disabled. If the driver is disabled, but he does not have a document confirming his disability with him, then in this case the driver will be fined according to the general rules.
  3. A disabled person does not have to glue a special warning sign "Disabled", since this requirement is not recorded in the traffic rules.

Parking on the lawn

The following is known about parking on a lawn:

  1. Parking on a lawn is an administrative offense, which is not regulated by uniform traffic rules, but by special regional laws. Therefore, the amount of the fine very much depends on the region where this offense was committed.
  2. Consider this example: you live in Moscow and have parked on a lawn - in this case, the parking fine will be 5,000 rubles. But such a fine will be imposed if you are an individual. If the violator is an official, then the amount of the fine will be 30,000 rubles, and if the violator is a legal entity - 300,000 rubles.
  3. Also in Moscow there are other norms regarding parking on the lawn, for violation of which the driver can be additionally fined. For example, if parking on a lawn has led to damage to green spaces, then the driver may be fined either 3.500-4000 rubles (if the driver is an individual), or 50.000 rubles (if the driver is an official), or 300.000 rubles (if the driver is legal entity).
  4. In other cities of Russia, the size of the fines may be different. For example, in Ryazan, the fine for parking on a lawn is either 500 - 2,000 rubles (for individuals), or 1,000 - 5,000 (for officials), or 5,000 - 20,000 rubles (for legal entities).

Second row parking

Traffic regulations oblige vehicle drivers to park their cars in one lane. For violation of this rule, the following penalty is provided:

  1. For parking in the second row (except for two-wheeled vehicles without a trailer), the driver will be fined 1,500 rubles. If the offense was committed in St. Petersburg or Moscow, then the driver will be fined 3,000 rubles.
  2. Two-wheeled vehicles without a trailer are allowed to park in two rows. If a trailer is attached to a two-wheeled vehicle, then such a vehicle is forbidden to park in the second row, and for ignoring this rule the driver will be fined according to the general rules.

Parking in the area of \u200b\u200bspecial signs or markings

There are special signs and markings that prohibit drivers from parking on certain sections of the road. For violation of this rule, the driver can be fined:

  1. If you ignored the prohibition signs and markings and parked in their coverage area, then you will be fined 500 rubles. If the offense was committed in St. Petersburg or Moscow, then the driver will be fined 1,500 rubles.
  2. The main prohibitory signs are the signs "Parking is prohibited", "Parking on even days is prohibited" and some others. Each sign applies only to the side of the road on which it is installed. There are also special road markings in the form of a zigzag white line, which prohibits parking on a certain section of the road.

Parking in the yard

The driver has the right to park his car in the yard, subject to the following rules:

  1. The vehicle does not create insurmountable barriers for pedestrians.
  2. The vehicle does not block driveways to houses and entrances.
  3. It is forbidden to park on the territory of schools, playgrounds or sports grounds, kindergartens, and so on.
  4. Vehicles with a maximum weight of more than 3.5 tons should be parked at designated areas. If these sites are absent, then it is prohibited to park such vehicles in the yard.
  5. Parking of vehicles with active engine operation for more than 5 minutes is prohibited (except when loading or unloading passengers or cargo).
  6. For ignoring the above rules, the driver will be fined 1,500 rubles. If the offense was committed in St. Petersburg or Moscow, the fine will be 3,000 rubles.
  7. Also, the driver can be fined for violating other traffic rules. For example, parking on a lawn in the courtyard is also an offense, and the amount of the fine is determined according to the general rules.

Parking by water bodies

The rules for parking near water bodies are as follows:

  1. It is allowed to park vehicles near water bodies on roads and special areas with a hard surface. It is also allowed to park the vehicle outside the water protection zones (the size of the water protection zone for water bodies is 50 meters). In other cases, it is prohibited to park a vehicle near water bodies.
  2. For ignoring this rule, the driver will be fined either 3,000 - 4,500 rubles (individual), or 8,000 - 12,000 rubles (official), or 200,000 - 400,000 rubles (legal entity).

Unpaid parking fine

The following is known regarding the fine for unpaid parking:

  1. Unpaid parking of a vehicle on the territory of paid parking lots is an administrative offense, which is regulated not by uniform traffic rules, but by special regional laws. Therefore, the amount of the fine very much depends on the region where this offense was committed.
  2. For example, in Moscow or St. Petersburg a person will have to pay 2,500 rubles, while in Ryazan the penalty for incorrect parking will be 1,500 rubles.

How to avoid a fine

Let's find out a few tricks to minimize the likelihood of a parking ticket:

  1. Be proactive but polite. If a traffic police inspector is interested in your car, answer politely and honestly. Do not be rude to the inspector in any way. If the inspector decides to impose a fine, then ask to explain the reason for the fine. Find out the article number of the Code of Administrative Offenses referred to by the traffic police inspector. In no case leave the car - in this case, the traffic police inspector will have to call a tow truck, which will only increase the actual amount of the fine.
  2. Do not park in a paid parking lot near an intersection if parking is prohibited on the second street that makes up the intersection. Cars in a paid parking lot are monitored by a special device called a parkon. This device is synchronized with the GPS / GLONASS satellite, and the error of such measurements can be up to 5-10 meters. Due to such a large error, the parkon can mistake a parked driver for an offender, which will lead to a fine.
  3. Do not cover the car number. If the traffic police inspector discovers that the numbers on your car are not readable, and the car itself is parked in the wrong place, then he will fine you not only for incorrect parking, but also for unreadable numbers.

How to find out about the presence of a fine

You can find out about the imposition of a fine in different ways:

  1. Contacting the traffic police. If you know that your car has been evacuated to a parking lot, then you can contact the traffic police. Employees of this body must tell you the reason for the fine and the amount of the fine.
  2. Receive notification by mail. Also, if a fine is imposed, you must receive a written notice of administrative liability and the imposition of a fine. If the decision to impose a fine was made on the basis of information received using the DVR, then several pictures must be attached to the notification that prove your guilt.
  3. Online services. Also, the decision on the presence of a fine can be found using various state Internet sites. The main such site is the State Services portal, but there are other sites where you can find out about the presence of a fine by car number (for example, residents of Moscow can find out about the presence of a fine using the mos.ru website).

How to challenge a fine

The imposition of a parking fine can be challenged:

  1. First you need to collect all the necessary documents (personal passport, car documents, etc.) and write a complaint. In the complaint, be sure to indicate the reasons why you do not agree with the imposition of a fine. The methods of challenging may vary and depend on the specific offense. For example, in the case of parking in a parking lot for the disabled, you can provide data from the dash cam, where it can be seen that you have transported a disabled person in your car.
  2. After that, you must submit this application to the local traffic police department. Application deadline is 10 days. You can also apply later if you have a valid reason (for example, you did not have time to apply because you were being treated). After that, your application should be considered within 10 days and made a decision.
  3. If the traffic police reject your complaint (and this happens quite often), you can go to court. The court will consider your case from scratch. The term for considering your complaint in court is 2 months.

Conclusion

Now you know what the penalty for parking in the wrong place is. Let's summarize. Vehicle parking is carried out in accordance with general traffic rules and local laws.

For violation of traffic rules, the driver can be fined, and the amount of the fine depends on the type of offense, region, legal status of the offender and other parameters; if during the drawing up of the protocol the driver is not near the car, then the vehicle will be evacuated to the penalty area, and the driver will have to pay for the services of a tow truck and for each day the vehicle is idle at the penalty area.

Nearly a decade ago, the technology for parking assistance was introduced. For many years this technology has evolved, but it has not been massively used on cars. But in recent years, autonomous parking technology has begun to appear on many modern cars. Most car manufacturers have started installing an automatic parking system as an option on their new cars.

Most likely, in a few years, even cheap cars will have an automatic parking assistant. BMW also decided to keep up with the times. So in the new innovative electric i3, the company's engineers installed an autonomous parking system. This one is no different from other similar autonomous parking assistants. When driving slowly down the street to cars, the system looks for a free parking space using radar sensors. Sensors installed on the front bumper inform the system about the possibility of parking in the parking lot.

As soon as the system has determined the possibility of parking, a special icon appears on the dashboard, warning the driver about the possibility of autonomous parking in the parking lot. In order to do this, the driver needs to stop the car and press a special button. After that, the car itself, without the participation of the driver, will park in an empty parking space.

During the European presentation of the BMW i3 in Austria, one of the representatives decided to show in an original way how the BMW parking assistant works in real conditions. To do this, he attached a special rubber band to the button that turned on the autonomous parking system so that it was pressed constantly, and after choosing a parking spot, he got out of the car to demonstrate how automatic parking works. The car independently parked in the parking lot without any problems.

Audi develops an autopilot for a car

The driver watched this process from the side. Despite the fact that parking assistants have long surprised no one after watching i3 parking videos, the autonomous parking system surprises again. Still, it is still unusual to see a car without a driver, which independently parks in the parking lot.

Attention!!! Do not try to repeat this, as in the case of such an experiment, there is a possibility that something will go wrong and your car will have an accident.

Recently, in many cities of our country, especially in large ones, paid parking has appeared. In order to leave a vehicle in such a parking lot, the driver must pay the amount equal to the amount of time the car was parked. This system is especially applicable in the capital of our homeland. This year, almost all municipal parking lots in Moscow have become paid, but some drivers are still interested in whether or not paid parking in Moscow on weekends in 2020 is paid.

The entire capital city is divided into special territorial zones. Depending on this, each zone has its own tariff for paid parking of a vehicle. The territoriality of the zone is the main factor affecting the value of the cost of this service.

Absolutely all parking spaces in any of the zones are made in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. The automated process of this service allows you to put and pick up a car without the participation of a special employee, which is very convenient for drivers. Payment for parking is mainly carried out using a bank card.

Terms of use for paid parking services

In order to use paid parking, you need to know certain rules.

  • First of all, to put a car in the parking lot, you need to pay for the service. Payment is made for a certain time.
  • When the vehicle exits, the parking system automatically recognizes it, opening the barrier, so the car owner does not need to do anything.
  • You can make an individual parking account, and when you enter the parking lot, funds will be withdrawn automatically from your bank card.
Working hours

Parking lots in the capital, operating on a paid basis, operate around the clock. You can use them at any time of the day or night without prior notice.

You can also pay for a parking space around the clock by choosing a convenient method, but you should not count on the fact that at night you can not pay for a parking space.

Is it possible to stand in a paid parking lot without paying for the service

According to the rules, you can put a car in such a parking lot for 15 minutes without paying for services. If this time has passed, and the driver has not received payment, then he will be issued a penalty.

Pedestrian inspectors or automated scanners can write it out.

If the motorist believes that he will not be able to meet the free time interval, then he needs to pay for parking in advance. If the driver paid, for example, for an hour of parking his car, and met in half the time, then the remaining funds will be returned to the driver's account.

Requirements for drivers

There are several rules for drivers who park their cars in paid parking lots, but the main one is timely payment for a place.

  • Vehicle registration plates must not be covered.
  • Payment must be made before using the service, having calculated the necessary parking time in advance.
Paid parking on weekends

There are special conditions at paid parking lots in Moscow on weekends, which make it possible to park a car absolutely free.

But it is worth considering that it is not necessary to pay for a parking space only on official public holidays and Sunday. These days, no action is required in the parking lot, you just need to park the car and pick it up as needed.

If the holiday falls on a Friday, then on Saturday parking will also be free. On other Saturdays, paid parking works in a paid mode.

Night parking

In many parking lots, the cost of the service at night is significantly reduced or a method of gradually increasing fees is applied.

Some parking lots do not change the cost of the service at night, but during the day it is not high either, within a hundred rubles per hour of parking.

Prices for paid parking in Moscow

In the capital, the cost of the service is quite significant and depends on the territorial location of the parking.

For example, at the nearest parking the cost of an hour of parking is 200 rubles, and the most distant parking lots will take only 60-40 rubles, taking into account the hour of parking.

Methods of payment for parking space services in the capital

At the moment, there are several ways to pay for paid parking spaces in Moscow. These methods are available to absolutely everyone. ...

  • Payment via SMS, which indicates the parking number and the required time to stay in the parking lot. SMS is sent to number 7775.
  • On a special site called "PARKING MOSCOW", this site has a mobile application.
  • Payment via QIWI wallet.
  • Payment through a special machine in the parking lot.
  • Through a mobile bank.

It should be borne in mind that, for example, SMS payments are only possible in some areas of Moscow.

If the driver is not ready to constantly send SMS to pay for parking his car, or he uses a bank card, then there is the possibility of purchasing a parking ticket. This subscription gives you the opportunity to park in paid parking lots at no additional cost.

It is important to know

It is worth remembering to all motorists of Moscow and guests of the capital that failure to pay for parking is considered an offense, for which a fine is imposed on the driver of the car in the amount of 2,500 rubles .

This amount can be paid using online banks or at the bank itself. Do not forget that you can pay only 1,750 rubles if you make the payment within twenty days after the fine is issued.

In the capital, paid urban parking is a phenomenon that has affected the entire metropolis. It is very difficult to cheat and not pay for parking at the moment, as automated systems work very well.

Volvo XC90 with parking will appear in 2014

According to Volvo, the new technology will allow drivers to leave the car in a safe place next to the parking lot, after which he will be able to independently find a free space and park.

The Swedish company Volvo has demonstrated a unique prototype of a car equipped with autonomous parking without driver intervention. Autonomous driving, combined with object detection and automatic braking, ensures that the vehicle interacts safely with other vehicles or pedestrians when parking.

The concern Volvo intends this week to officially present a fully ready-to-mass introduction of the automatic parking system. The integration of the new system into a production car (for example, the V40) and its work were shown yesterday at the Volvo test site.

The Swedish concern Aktiebolaget Volvo has announced a new automatic parking, which it has developed and is going to implement on a Volvo car.

According to Volvo, the new technology will allow drivers to park their cars in a safe place next to the parking lot, after which they can independently find a free space and park.

A system that allows you to find a parking space and park yourself has already been developed, but it will only work in special zones. The concept with this system has already been developed and will be presented next week. This set will make driving without a driver as safe as possible for other cars and for pedestrians. Most likely, the first car to be equipped with the new autonomous control system will be the Volvo XC90.

Finally, it became known about the innovation that the Swedish car manufacturer Volvo is introducing. Soon, the new Volvo XC90 will be one of the first to be equipped with a state-of-the-art system that will allow the car to park without driver intervention. The prototype was the V40 model, which, with the autopilot, independently detects free parking space, the presence of the driver is not required for this. When parking, Volvo's system analyzes possible obstacles in the way, whether they are inanimate objects or pedestrians.

The driver can get out of the car near the parking lot and activate the parking process using the smartphone app. The reverse process is also possible - upon a signal from the telephone, the car independently leaves the parking lot and goes to the place where it can pick up a driver.

The Swedish company Volvo has developed a system for autonomous car parking. It is expected to be introduced into production cars as early as 2014, and the XC90 will be the first mass-produced Volvo model with an autonomous parking lot, Telegraf reports.

Parking without a driver from Volvo

Last year, the Swedish automaker successfully tested its SARTRE program for environmentally friendly and safe traffic. Self-parking should be completely safe, since such cars will be equipped with a variety of cameras and sensors focused on keeping track of the movement of other vehicles, pedestrians and obstacles.

Bought a Volvo - forget about parking

The top management of the renowned Volvo company decided to develop a system responsible for autonomous car control while parking. According to the plans, the introduction of this function will affect the serial cars produced next year. The car corporation Volvo has developed a ready-made model of automatic parking, with the help of which any car of this brand, equipped with the above-mentioned system, can be parked in a free space without the participation of the driver. In addition to parking, the new complex will also allow you to indicate the place where the car needs to go from the parking lot for the driver to land.

The Swedish concern Aktiebolaget Volvo announced the developed system of parking a Volvo car without driver participation.

The Swedish concern Volvo (Volvo) is developing a system that will autonomously drive a car while parking. According to preliminary data, this function will be implemented in serials of the 2014 model year.

Last year the company successfully completed a series of tests of its SARTRE program for safe and environmentally friendly traffic in traffic. And in the very near future Volvo will present a concept of its new car, which can independently perform parking.

Volvo introduced a car controlled from a smartphone

Recently Volvo will present a new system that independently parks the car. It is understood that the driver, having driven up to the parking lot, will send the car a signal from his smartphone, and he will independently find a free space and park. The Swedish manufacturer Volvo has implemented a new system in its cars, thanks to which cars can not only park without the participation of the driver, but also find a parking space. The first car to be equipped with this feature will be the new Volvo XC90. The Swedish company Volvo has created a system that helps the car not only park independently without driver intervention, but also find a parking space.

For those unfamiliar with the development of autonomous driving technology, today's demo from Volvo may sound fantastic. A demo video has appeared on the network, which shows a prototype of a car that can park without the participation of a driver, although the car owner himself is given the opportunity to monitor the parking process using a smartphone.
Only a general of tank forces is not required to be able to park.

For several years already, assisting our clients in providing them in Moscow and Moscow region, the A-Renta company would like to help you in such a seemingly common business for all motorists as parking.

Parkingcar - a business that all drivers, without exception, face every day: both beginners and those with a long driving experience. The only difference is the complexity of your specific situation, depending on which you just need to choose one or another method and technique of parking the car.

Of course, it is impossible to learn this or that type of parking just by reading articles. However, we hope that our timid attempt to help (and at the same time to entertain a little) will come to your yard, so to speak.

Something about parking techniques

It is no secret that in a driving school they provide a minimum set of skills, and you have to learn a lot of wisdom yourself. And if we talk about ways of parking a car, then even more so "experience is the son of difficult mistakes."

Especially when it comes to urban, and even more so about Moscow parking lots. Parking lots in the city are sometimes almost completely occupied, and it is very difficult to squeeze into an empty space. After all, everything must be done so as not to damage other people's cars.

Surely, everyone remembers how in the driving school you were "tortured" with the parallel parking technique or the so-called "drive into the garage". The latter method is also great for some cases of reverse parking between other cars, by the way.

However, one thing is a driving school, and another is real situations with parking in the same Moscow, for example. However, even a seasoned motorist is not immune from overlays or a banal lack of parking spaces.

Moscow. International Airport. The plane arrived from the Dominican Republic.
The customs officer asks the passenger:
- Where did you buy this parrot?
- In the Dominican Republic.
- But you could buy the same one in Moscow!
- We did, but we didn't find a parking place.

Nevertheless, let us note that the use of one or another parking technique is associated with the driver's driving characteristics, his skills and other factors.

  • - You should mark the parking space in advance, for which the speed is reduced.
  • - The first arrivals are done with the help of a parking employee or a friend who would help to correct the movement process. As a rule, several runs are enough to learn.
  • - Remember! Trees, curbs, fences, stair steps and even benches with grandmothers can be stronger than your car. And at the same time they cannot (no matter how much you would like it) to get out of your way quickly.
When parking in a snowdrift, you must first make sure that it is not busy!

Below we will look at (albeit very briefly) the different ways to park your car.

And now we bring to your attention a not uninteresting, although possibly controversial video lesson on parking techniques (which we found for you, as they say, on the WEB):

Ways and types of car parking

Parking in front of the car

It is considered the simplest. How this is done can be observed at shopping centers, in parking lots at residential buildings, organizations. Parking is done either parallel or perpendicular to the curb.

Parallel parking of the car in front, in the direction of your movement (at an angle to the curb) is the easiest way. But if there are a lot of cars and the parking lot is seriously loaded, problems arise later, when someone wants to leave.

Perpendicular parking is more convenient in terms of "drive off later". Especially where there are special markings and free passage for the car is provided. Although, of course, here you may well be "locked".

Parallel parking is when you have parked, and you are completely parallel to where the others will stand.

Reverse parking

Parking is more difficult, the method is easily given to those with the ability to navigate in space, who has an imagination. It takes more time to park, but then it’s easier to leave the parking lot.

Parking in reverse parallel to the curb is considered the most difficult maneuver. This is usually done on the streets where the minimum travel and distance is short. Practitioners note that a successful check-in is possible provided that the vacant space is longer by 1 m in length of the car.

When starting to drive in, you need to leave at least 0.5 meter distance between your car and the one behind which parking is planned. It is worth driving back until the rear bumper of the front car is visible in the right mirror.

Next, the steering wheel is twisted to the right and, observing in the left mirror, the car must be directed back. As soon as the front of the rear vehicle is visible, you must apply the brake. Then you need to move the car and change the position of the steering wheel depending on the position of the cars between which you need to park.

Move the car slowly so that there is no accident. The car in the parking lot must be at the same distance from other cars. Or, at least so as not to interfere with other drivers: for those already parked earlier than you - not only get into your car, but also leave the parking lot; but for those who can still drive up.

Another confirmation of the theory of relativity: When a neighbor picks up her relatively small "Matiz" from the parking lot, two relatively large "Jeeps" can be put in the vacant space.

Parking perpendicular

They are looking for a suitable parking place so that the door can be opened. But you shouldn't take up too much space.

Ivan Ivanovich parked his car near the house so successfully that in order not to lose the parking lot, he has been walking for two weeks already.

The start of the race is a sharp left or right turn. If done to the left, then the right mirror of the entering car is checked against the right headlight of a nearby car. If the drive is made to the right, then the alignment is on the left headlight of a nearby vehicle.

It will be possible not to crash into the curb with the wheels, orienting yourself on the nearby cars.
