The lawyer warned motorists about unexpected fines in winter
The vast majority of fines that are sent in the winter season are related to the unreadability of markings, but there are other situations for which the driver of the vehicle may be held accountable during this period. The lawyer of the Moscow Bar Association (MCA) told about it on February 2 "Advisor Center" Alexander Shimansky.
Sanctions against motorists, according to him, can be imposed for improper parking, in which the wheels of the car end up on the roadway, and the trunk or hood is above the sidewalk. This position of the car interferes with pedestrians, who in turn will be able to complain about the owner of the vehicle. In addition, a fine can be issued for damaged windshield wipers, prolonged heating of the car, as well as for its poor cleaning or for leaving unknowingly on a snowy lawn.
"It is almost impossible to challenge such a punishment in court. Therefore, you need to carefully look at where the road ends and landscaping begins. It's worth checking the maps on your phone, as summer panoramas usually show where the grass plots are located," the expert said in an interview with the Prime agency.
Szymanski advised drivers not to linger at intersections or driveways in case of traffic jams in order to avoid receiving a fine in automatic mode from cameras.
Alexander Kasyanenko, co-chairman of the Ivanovo regional branch of the Popular Front, an auto lawyer, and a forensic auto expert, said on January 28 that poor snow removal creates a danger on the road not only for those who are driving it, but also for others. According to him, pieces of ice can fly off from an unscrupulously cleaned vehicle while driving, which, in turn, will damage neighboring cars and may cause an accident.
