Fine 5,000 rubles for repeated driving of an unregistered car

Driving a car that is not registered with the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate (without a pink registration certificate or after 10 days after purchasing the car) will result in a fine of 500 to 800 rubles. But if you are caught again (within a year after full payment of the fine for the first violation), then you will face a more severe punishment - a fine of 5,000 rubles or deprivation of rights for 1-3 months.

In addition, the 50% discount does not apply to such fines.

Traffic police fines for traffic violations

In 2021, traffic fines did not change. The amount of sanctions depends on the administrative offenses committed.

Personally, I have never found myself in a bad situation, but no one is immune from this. Knowledge of traffic rules and the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation is necessary for every driver. This will help insure against administrative sanctions.

Table: amounts of some fines for individuals, legal entities and officials

Why is a fine of 500 rubles established?

The amount of 500 rubles is the minimum penalty for administrative violations. It is established for committing minor offenses. These include, for example:

• lack of state registration - if the actual owner of the car is in no hurry to register his vehicle within the 10 days established by law, then he will be subject to a fine of 500 rubles. In subsequent cases, a penalty of 5 thousand rubles or temporary deprivation of rights for up to 3 months is established;
• failure to pass a technical inspection - every 2 years there is a need to undergo a technical inspection. This allows you to identify damage, breakdowns or other defects of the vehicle. If a driver neglects to check his car, he is subject to a fine of 500 rubles. By decision of the traffic police officer, the fine may be increased to 800 rubles;

  

  A technical inspection is carried out to identify deficiencies that impede the operation of the vehicle.

• driving a disabled vehicle;
• slight speeding;
• exceeding the number of passengers in the car;
• failure to comply with the rules when turning;
• lack of documents;
• improper use of seat belts;
• violation of rules on railway tracks;
• transportation of dangerous goods, etc.

Why is a fine of 800 rubles established?

In 2021, a fine of 800 rubles is rare, so not every driver knows about it. Penalties are established in individual cases depending on the type of offense committed:

• Stop line. A traffic light signal prohibiting movement obliges drivers to stop until there is a special marking. Crossing the stop line is considered an administrative offense. The driver must be fined in the amount of 800 rubles without alternative sanctions.
• Lack of insurance. Motorists must enter into an agreement with an insurance company. It is allowed to issue an MTPL policy electronically, and information about the conclusion of the contract is transferred to the database. If the driver does not have a paper document in his hands, this is not considered a violation. Collection is made if there is no information about insurance in the information base.
• Not stopping at the request of a traffic police inspector. Situations often arise when a traffic police officer stops a car. If the driver does not react in any way, a fine is imposed on him. Many motorists believe this requirement is illegal, but they are wrong. Any traffic police inspector has the right to stop a vehicle, as well as check the documents of its owner.

Why is a fine of 1 thousand rubles established?

According to the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, offenses for which a fine of 1 thousand rubles is established include:

The reasons for imposing a fine in the amount of 2.5 thousand rubles are the following administrative violations:

• improper parking or stopping of a vehicle in federal cities;
• transportation of dangerous goods without permission;
• no emergency card;
• driving the wrong way on a motorway;
• violations of traffic rules that led to slight harm to human health.

Why is a fine of 3 thousand rubles established?

• transfer of a vehicle to a person who does not have a driver’s license;
• driving a vehicle outside of markings or in violation of road signs;
• parking on a pedestrian crossing or sidewalk;
• car parking on tram tracks;
• stopping a car less than 5 meters from a pedestrian crossing;

Is advertising allowed on the rear window of a car?

Car owners are often interested in whether they need permission to place advertising on their car. On the roads you can always find vehicles with advertising stickers. For most, this is an additional way to earn money. Today, this method of earning money is available to owners of all cars, except:

• Russian Post cars;
• ambulance vehicles, the Ministry of Emergency Situations and law enforcement agencies;
• trucks transporting dangerous goods;
• cars with sirens, light signals and sound alarms.

Advertising on transport is not subject to registration with the traffic police. You also do not need to obtain a license or special permission to do this.

However, do not forget to enter into a service agreement with the advertiser.

Fine 5,000 rubles for missing or altered numbers

The same amount of fine is imposed for driving a car with hidden (including with the help of special materials or equipment - curtains, etc.) license plates, for driving without license plates (in this case, if license plates have been issued for the car and must be installed, and not in cases where you can drive without license plates in a car that is not registered with the traffic police) and for license plates installed in the wrong place.

As an alternative to a fine of 5,000, deprivation of rights for a period of 1 to 3 months.

Strange traffic police fines of 5,000 rubles. To whom and why are they sent?

Motorists began to complain about strange fines of 5,000 rubles received in Moscow. In all cases, the photographs attached to the fines show that the car is in motion. Most often, the action takes place on the Moscow Ring Road, and cars are driving in traffic. But at the same time, fines come for violating the rules of stopping and parking.

Drivers were outraged by several inconsistencies. The most important thing is that at the moment of fixation they were still in motion, which can be seen even in the resolutions. In addition, according to Part 4 of Art. 12.19 of the Administrative Code “Violation of the rules for stopping or parking vehicles on the roadway, resulting in the creation of obstacles to the movement of other vehicles,” such an offense is punishable in Moscow by a fine of 3,000 rubles. But in all cases with “parking” on the Moscow Ring Road, the orders came for 5,000 rubles.

“I received a notice of a fine for stopping/parking in a prohibited place, but in the photograph my car is driving in the middle of the highway,” motorist Polina Nazarova was indignant.

Facebook post by Polina Nazarova

“I recently received a message from my bank’s app about a fine of 5,000 rubles received. It turned out that he was for stopping or parking in a prohibited place. Judging by the terrible photos that were provided to me, and what I was able to make out from them, this happened on the Moscow Ring Road, when I was moving slowly in a traffic jam. It is striking that there is no information about this fine on the official website of GIBDD.rf. I have already written a complaint, there are 67 days left for payment. Who else has encountered this?” — driver Alexander Ilyinsky asked for advice on social networks.
