Minor traffic violations go unpunished

The Government is looking for new ways to boost the coffers. In the list of the best "sponsors" on the first line number of motorists. And that spring has appeared in time, and again on the roads of the shares held demonstrations on catching malicious defaulters fines. Violations of Traffic Rules for Russian drivers, apparently, in the blood. Every day, thousands of written protocols, and therefore the debt collection promises a lot of money. At a roundtable held at the State Duma, director of the Federal Bailiff Service (FSSP) Arthur Parfenchikov complained that the recovery of a minimum fine of $ 100 unfavorable. The work of the bailiff for the processing of one case the state spends more than 300 rubles, that is, until a plank Parfenchikov proposed to raise the minimum penalty. The work of the bailiff is to travel to the place of residence of the debtor, if in a month is not it a proof of payment of fine. Of course, being literally pressed up against the wall, careless motorists in most cases pay the debt in place. In case of failure or lack of money the offender bailiff describes the property. In 2008, he was discharged 41 million penalty, one volunteer was paid about 2 million. Bailiffs handled only 9.8 million cases. Also, it was proposed to introduce a system of administrative warnings because more than half of cleared fines punched a hole in the public purse. If the driver is constantly violating the same item SDA, for the first few times he can make only verbal warnings, and when the "accumulate" to recover a significant amount, he will be penalized for any previous violations immediately. It would seem that the life of motorists is simplified so as not to be due to defend the $ 100 turn in the Savings Bank or wander in search of terminals for the payment of fines. But decisions are not in favor of the convenience of drivers, and with the expectation of more precise work departments, with administrative penalties. Against increasing the minimum penalty in an interview, expressed deputy chief of the Department of Road Safety Ministry of Internal Affairs Vladimir Kuzin. He said that any change in the rules of law requires reinforcement statistics and should be carefully worked out. In addition, the idea of ??verbal warnings will not be on hand traffic police because the effectiveness of its work is evaluated by the number of prescription protocols. Verbal warning the traffic police can make now, but it depends rather on their mood and implement a plan for fines. Minor penalties are imposed for such violations as do not feed the signal to maneuver associated with the change of range of motion, starting or stopping the motion, rotation or reversal of this band nonconforming; non-compliance with traffic signs etc. Sometimes the inspector prescribed penalty for converting to the wrong place - on pedestrians, too, have a plan. Probably everyone would agree that the ride, while fully respecting the traffic rules, practically impossible. Although the proportion of fines for minor violations of more than half of all prescription. On the one hand, the fines are not paid immediately because this procedure is not so simple. Some of the "traffic police" may forget to provide details for payment, and calls to the Department of Traffic Police do not give answers to these questions. It's not that sorry man $ 100, and that because of this small amount they spend a lot of time. Payment is continually delayed "for later" and gradually forgotten. On the other hand, perhaps this is due to our mentality, they say, you have to - you and recover. Our people, unlike most Europeans will be able to sleep until he is at rest in the glove compartment of a stack of unpaid fines. If the state agrees with the proposal of the bailiff service, will certainly saved a lot of money. But the intimate conversations of traffic policemen will not have the desired effect. Quite the contrary - the illusion of impunity. And further up the chain it would lead to an increase in accidents on the roads. A safety on the roads of the country - this is the first thing that should draw the State Duma of the decisions? Text: Olga Zabelkina.
