In what cases is it legal and illegal to evacuate a disabled person’s car?

Can a disabled person's car be towed? Of course yes. However, this can happen legally or illegally. In some cases, special rules apply to this category of drivers. For example, if a car is parked under a prohibitory sign, it cannot be towed. In what cases are sanctions legal and in what cases are they not?

Illegal

According to the law, it is impossible to evacuate a disabled person’s car in the following cases:

• Because of the sign, parking is prohibited, this rule applies to signs that prohibit parking at all times or only during certain hours or days.
• Due to other road signs, in some cases they may be supplemented with signs specifically allowing disabled parking.

It is important to note that these rules only work if the car has an appropriate sticker that meets the established standards. If there are no markings on the car, delivery to the impound lot will be completely legal and challenging it will be problematic.

Legal

Do they have the right to tow a car with a special sign legally? There are a number of situations when a disabled person’s car can be taken to an impound lot quite legally:

• If parking occurred on tram or railway tracks;
• If a car occupies a bike lane;
• If the car is parked less than 100 meters from a dangerous section of the road;
• If the driver parked it in an area where there is less than 3 meters from the curb to the solid line;
• If the distance to the pedestrian crossing is 5 meters or less;
• If the car is parked in a special place, but there is no disabled sign on it;
• If the driver is under the influence of alcohol or drugs;

Signs on a disabled person’s car - where to get them and how to check the legality of the sign on a car?

Special marks and signs must be installed on the car of a disabled person or a citizen transporting a disabled person . Otherwise, it will be impossible to identify such a vehicle - it will simply be mistaken for the car of an ordinary citizen.

What should be the sign on a disabled person's car?

The sign must meet the following requirements:

1. The size must be at least 15 by 15 cm.
2. The sign represents a person in a wheelchair. Presented in black.
3. The background of the sign is yellow.

The sign must be installed on the front and rear glass.

Where can I buy a disabled person's sign for a car?

You can buy a handicapped sign at any auto store. Any citizen can purchase it.

Proof of disability is not required when purchasing a sign. The sign is for sale in the form of a sticker.

How to check the validity of a disabled person's sign on a car?

Not every citizen can install it. First of all, it can be the disabled person himself (group 1 or 2) - or the person who transports the disabled person.

To check the legality of installing a sign on a car, the traffic police inspector must request certain documents .

The driver must have with him:

1. A special medical certificate stating that he is disabled. If a passenger with limited mobility is being transported, he must have the appropriate documents on hand.
2. Disabled person's certificate. The driver or passenger can also provide.
3. Parking permit. In some Russian cities, citizens with disabilities are issued a special document - a parking permit. This paper is issued by traffic inspectors. The document can replace a medical certificate.

It is this documentation that confirms that a person can use this sign on his car.

In Russia there is no single database where disabled people can register their vehicles. It would make it easy and simple to check the legality of installing a sign on a car.

The difficulty is that a disabled person needs to confirm the group and undergo a medical examination every year. Every year the status and right to install the sign is confirmed.

Rules for the use of parking spaces for disabled people in 2021 - can a disabled person’s car be towed from these parking lots?

The presence of a “Disabled Person” sign gives the motorist a special right to park the car in a special place. As a rule, in 2021, no innovations in the traffic rules in this regard were approved. Drivers with a special sign can leave their car in disabled parking spaces. This right has not been abolished.

Any other vehicle can be towed from the parking lot intended for disabled vehicles.

Many people wonder whether a disabled person’s car can be towed from these parking lots? The answer is yes. A traffic police inspector may evacuate a vehicle to a parking lot if the driver does not have documents confirming the right to install a special sign .

In addition, a disabled person in this situation will be fined.

In what cases is it legal or illegal to evacuate a disabled person’s car?

There are cases when it is legal to evacuate a car of a disabled person - or someone who is transporting a person with disabilities.

Let's list them:

1. The car was parked on railway or tram tracks.

7. The vehicle was not equipped with a special sign, but was left in a parking lot intended for the disabled.
8. The vehicle had a faulty brake or steering system.
9. The driver was under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

In practice, there have been situations when evacuation took place illegally .

Let's talk about them:

1. When the car was parked in a place under a “No Parking” sign. This also applies to forbidden times. For example, parking was prohibited only on even or odd dates, during certain hours.
2. When a sign is installed specifically for a disabled person, stating that parking is prohibited.
3. When other prohibitory signs were installed, the disabled person still parked the car.

In other situations, towing a disabled person’s car will be considered legal.

It will be very difficult to prove the case in court under the above circumstances.

What to do if a disabled person’s car has been towed, and how to pick up a car from the impound lot - instructions

Imagine the situation: you come to the parking lot and see your car being towed away.

There is no need to panic.

If everything is in order with the documentation, the inspector will cancel the evacuation of the vehicle.

According to the law, the driver can correct the violation and prove his innocence before the car is sent to the impound lot.

If the inspector insists on his own and does not pay attention to you, then follow further:

2. Expenses for downtime in a special parking lot. The cost depends on the number of hours of storage, vehicle category and engine power.
3. The amount for the transportation costs of the tow truck. The cost of work varies. For example, in Moscow and St. Petersburg you will pay 4,000 rubles, and in the regions 1,500-2,000 rubles.

Tariffs are set by local authorities.

Disabled parking spaces

In parking lots, special spaces must be allocated for cars of disabled people or vehicles carrying them. Only a car with a sign can stop at this place. Any other car will be evacuated from the disabled parking lot to the impound lot.

The size and number of parking spaces are established by GOST. Near public institutions there must be at least 10% special parking spaces for persons with disabilities. If parking is located near a medical institution whose services are used by people with musculoskeletal diseases, their share increases to 20%.

In addition, according to the new current rules, disabled people of the first group, as well as persons transporting disabled children, can use paid parking on preferential terms. People with the second and third groups will use them on a general basis.

Do they have the right to tow a car from a disabled parking lot?

If the driver of a vehicle violates parking rules, his car is in danger of being towed to a parking lot.

This creates a number of problems for the car owner. To take it back, you need to pay a fine issued by the traffic police, a tow truck and security services.

Among all the offenses related to towing, many are interested in whether a car can be towed from a disabled spot.

Since 2015, a law regarding evacuation rules has come into force. According to it, the driver can save his car if he manages to return to it before the tow truck takes it to a special parking lot.

The detention of a vehicle must stop if its owner is present, who can drive it in accordance with the rules of the road. This rule is valid until the tow truck and the car begin to move.

In accordance with the law, the car will not be towed if the driver forgot his license at home. The main thing is that he has an identity card with him.

And the presence or absence of the right to drive a vehicle can be checked through departmental information databases. But you will still have to pay a fine of 500 rubles.

There is also a rule according to which it has become legal to evacuate a car from a place for disabled people. It is very relevant, especially for parking lots near business centers and supermarkets.

Disabled parking spaces

The presence of a “Disabled Person” sign on your car makes it possible to use special parking spaces intended for disabled people.

They are distinguished by the application of special markings and location at a minimum distance from the entrance to the institution.

Parking of any other vehicle in these areas is prohibited by law.

Disabled people and the persons who transport them have advantages over other drivers . Traffic police officers determine whether the owner of a car is disabled by the presence of a special sign 8.17 in front and behind the car.

Only this category of people has the right to leave their car under prohibitory signs.

If the driver of a vehicle is disabled, but does not have documents that prove this and has not installed a special sign made on a yellow background, then the traffic police officer issues him a fine and reasonably sends the car to the impound lot.

Owners of parking lots for vehicles are required to provide parking spaces for disabled people. Of the total number of such places there should be at least 10%.

If these rules are not followed, the owner of the parking lot faces an administrative fine in the amount of:

• for an official who is responsible - 3000-5000 rubles;
• for a legal entity - 30,000-50,000 rubles.

Parking areas for vehicles of disabled people or persons transporting them must have the following markings:

1. Special markings that are applied to the road surface.
2. Road signs. They can either duplicate the markup or be installed independently. They play a big role in winter, when it is impossible to see the markings on the road.

The following are entitled to special parking spaces:

• disabled people of the first and second groups who drive cars;
• vehicles that constantly or periodically transport disabled people of any age.

Only such cars can use special parking lots and only when transporting this category of people. In all other situations, the use of special areas and signs is prohibited.

Installing signs on a car

“Disabled” stickers can be freely purchased in all specialized stores . But this sign is installed only if the relevant documents are available.

In accordance with the law, illegal use of such a sign is punishable by a fine of 5,000 rubles. In addition, the sign is subject to confiscation by the employees who discovered the violation.

The “Disabled Person” sign is attached to the front and rear of a vehicle that belongs to or transports people with disabilities. It is made on a yellow background and has a size of 15*15 cm.

In addition to this designation, the driver or passenger who is disabled is required to carry documents that will confirm his status:

• certificate from a medical institution;
• disability certificate.

In many cities, citizens with disabilities are issued an individual document - a parking permit. Having such a permit is sufficient for traffic police officers; it completely replaces certificates from a medical institution and a certificate.

Such permission is issued by social protection authorities if:

• passports;
• medical certificate of disability;
• statements in writing.

It takes no more than 10 days to complete this document. It is valid for the same period as disability certificates.

Penalty for parking in a disabled space

Not all drivers understand whether traffic police officers have the right to tow a car from a parking lot for disabled people.

In accordance with the law, the driver will be punished for stopping or parking a car in areas intended for the category of people with special needs. He will face a fine of 5,000 rubles and the car will be towed .

According to the rules for towing cars in 2021, a vehicle cannot be towed from a parking spot if it belongs to or is transporting a disabled person.

In addition to the special sign, the patrol inspector may ask for documents on the basis of which the driver uses this designation.

It is the driver's responsibility to present the necessary documents upon request. Otherwise, the sign will be considered illegally installed.

For violation of parking rules, any car that is not equipped with a special sign can be towed.

A traffic police inspector must be at the evacuation site before the special vehicle starts moving. Since the driver can return in a timely manner and prove his innocence.

When the owner of the vehicle submits the relevant documents before the tow truck starts moving, his car will not be towed.

If the driver rightfully occupies a parking space, he must always have an identification card or medical certificate with him. Since a sign pasted on the glass does not prove the right to special parking.

Unscrupulous drivers often use the “Disabled” designation to occupy parking spaces for people with disabilities with impunity. Therefore, traffic police inspectors are forced to ask people without obvious signs of disability to confirm their status.

The parking lots have special areas for disabled people . If they are occupied by people who do not belong to this category, this is not only unethical, but also an administrative offense.

Thus, evacuation of a car from a disabled area is possible in the absence of a sign and relevant documents that prove disability.

Every driver needs to know that the inspector is not obliged to independently check whether the car is listed in the register, which takes into account vehicles of disabled people.

You will be interested in:

What should a disabled driver have with him?

Regardless of whether a disabled person’s car was evacuated or not, the driver must have with him:

• Driver's license;
• OSAGO policy;
• Certificate of state registration of the vehicle;
• A certificate confirming the disability of the driver or passenger.

A disabled vehicle must be equipped with a sticker of the established type. However, the traffic inspector may at any time request to present a document confirming disability if the corresponding sign is installed on the car, that is, the driver or disabled passenger must have it with him. The driver's license does not include a note about the driver's health status. To confirm disability, a pension certificate with the corresponding label can be used. If the “Disabled” sign was installed illegally and, upon inspection by a traffic police officer, it was discovered that neither the driver nor the passenger had the required certificate, such an action is punishable by a fine of 5 thousand rubles. For a legal entity, the penalty may be 500 thousand rubles.

What documents are needed to pick up a car?

Having received the necessary information about the detention of a vehicle, do not rush to the rescue. The car will not be released to the owner if he does not provide the inspector with the following documents:

• identification;
• papers confirming ownership of the car (PTS);
• vehicle detention protocol;
• notarized power of attorney to conduct business (for the legal representative of the owner).

If a car enthusiast drives a car without ownership, additional documents will be required:

• driver license;
• STS;
• valid MTPL policy.

What marks should be on the car?

A sticker must be installed on the rear and front windows of a car used by a disabled person. On the windshield it is located in the lower right corner, so as not to interfere with the driver’s view, on the rear – on the lower left side. The size of the sticker must be at least 150 by 150 mm. If the sign is not visible, the evacuation of the car will be considered legal. Citizens of the following categories can install such a sign on their car:

• They themselves are disabled people of the first and second groups;
• Persons transporting disabled people of the first two groups;
• Parents whose children have any disability group;

If a healthy driver is driving a vehicle, the sign must be installed only when a disabled person is directly in the vehicle. It is easy to purchase such stickers; they are sold at any auto store. There is no need to present proof of disability upon purchase.

What should the owner do if the car is taken to an impound lot?

If a disabled person’s car is taken away by a tow truck, his actions should be exactly the same as those of any other driver. First of all, you should make sure that the car is not stolen. To do this, just dial 02 or the traffic police. The dispatcher will forward the call to a special department, which will clarify whether the car is in the impound lot.

Next, if the car has been towed, the following actions must be taken:

• We find out which impound lot the car is in.
• We collect a package of documents: a certificate from the traffic police giving the owner the right to pick up the car, title documents for car ownership, compulsory motor liability insurance policy. If the car will be picked up not by its owner, but by another person, a notarized power of attorney will be additionally required.
• We check for any damage that was sustained during the evacuation.
• We draw up and sign the acceptance certificate;
• The impound lot can no longer hold your car, you can drive away.

Often, even when evacuating a disabled person’s car, minor damage is caused to it, usually the paintwork is damaged. If any are present, they are necessarily recorded, after which the citizen has the right to recover damages.

Evacuation of a disabled person's car

Towing a car is a procedure that is carried out in a standard manner, regardless of the type of vehicle. But it is important to note that the evacuation process if the owner is disabled may be slightly different.

It is important to remember that such citizens are not subject to some standard signs.

Markings on the car

It should be noted that the car of a disabled person must have certain marks. Otherwise, there will simply be no way to identify him.

The rules of the Russian Federation define a standard sign that must be present on a vehicle driven by a disabled person.

The following basic requirements apply to such a sign:

• its size must be no less than 15 × 15 cm;
• the sign itself is a black symbolic designation of a person in a wheelchair on a yellow background;
• the sign itself must be present both on the front window and on the rear window - but it is important that it does not block the view of the person sitting in the driver’s seat;
• the optimal solution in terms of choosing the location of such a sign is the upper right corner of the glass;
• such a sign itself can only be installed if there is a special medical certificate or identification.

It is important to note that the installation of such a sign is allowed only in the following cases:

• when driving a car is carried out by a disabled person of group 1 or 2;
• if the vehicle is used to transport a disabled child.

It is worth noting that this type of sign must be affixed on the basis of a special certificate. If it is determined that there are no grounds for placing it, the citizen will be given an appropriate fine.

Its size will be at least 5 thousand rubles . Moreover, for legal entities the amount of such a fine will be much larger - 500 thousand rubles . This moment is determined by Art. No. 12.5 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

It is also important to note that the installation of a “disabled person” sign is not mandatory for those who actually have the right to do so. But it is important to note that only with such a sign is it possible to use all the benefits that are provided to people with disabilities.

It is also worth noting that the absence of a sign gives the traffic police officer and special services the right to evacuate the vehicle. At the same time, if there is a sign on the glass, it will be impossible to carry out such a procedure.

In what cases is it necessary to evacuate a disabled person’s car?

Towing a car of a group 2 disabled person is illegal only in a number of cases. These are determined by traffic rules. For example, if a disabled person parks under certain signs (for example, parking is prohibited), then the parking officer or traffic police officer does not have the right to apply standard sanctions in this case.

First of all, it is the disabled person himself who should figure out when exactly it is possible to evacuate his car - and when it is illegal.

Illegal

It is not allowed to evacuate a disabled person’s vehicle in the following cases:

• if parking is carried out under a “parking prohibited” sign or when parking is prohibited on even and odd dates;
• various other signs - and these may be equipped with additional symbols (for example, disabled people are allowed to park).

It is important to note that such a rule applies only if the vehicle of a disabled person is equipped with a special sign - in accordance with the requirements of the law.

If there is no such designation, then the evacuation will be considered completely legal. Proving the opposite will be extremely problematic. The jurisprudence on this matter is quite complex.

Legal

There is also a wide range of situations when the process of evacuating a disabled person’s vehicle is completely legal.

A standard list of this kind includes the following:

• if parking rules are violated, stops of the following kind: stopping on railway, tram tracks;
• on the edge of the road - if the distance from the solid marking line to the edge of the curb is only 3 meters;
• when parking in front of or after a pedestrian crossing - when the distance to it is only 5 meters;
• if the stop is made at a public transport stop point or at a distance of 15 m from it;
• there is parking in the bicycle lane;
• parking on a dangerous section of the road - less than 100 m.

Actions if the car is taken to the impound lot

Actions at the evacuation site, if it belonged to a disabled person, are completely standard. It is important to make sure that this is not a theft. This procedure is relatively simple to carry out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bthnavhtWB4

It is only important to have a phone at hand to make a call. Just dial 02 or another traffic police number (may differ depending on the region and mobile operator). Next, the dispatcher will redirect the applicant to a special department.

Picking up a car from the parking lot is possible only if a special algorithm is followed. It includes the following steps:

• it is important to understand exactly where the evacuated vehicle is located;
• it is required to prepare a standard list of documents: a certificate from the traffic police confirming the possibility of issuing a car to the bearer of such a document;
• all title documents for the vehicle itself - these allow us to establish that the car belongs to the applicant;
• MTPL insurance policy;
• a notarized power of attorney - if a citizen who is not the owner wants to pick up the car.

Situations often arise when a car is significantly damaged during the evacuation process. Or there is minor damage to the paintwork. This is a direct violation of civil rights.

Accordingly, it is necessary to document this fact. This will make it possible to collect funds in the future. Finding information about your own towed car will not be difficult.

You need to familiarize yourself in advance with the algorithm for returning a car from a parking lot. Otherwise, many different complex and difficult moments cannot be avoided.

It is especially important to carefully review the list of all documents that will be required in a particular case. It may differ depending on the basis on which the car was evacuated, as well as how it happened.

Before picking up the car, you should make sure that there is no damage to its body.

Do I have to pay for illegal transportation?

Tariffs for evacuation and parking payments are the responsibility of local government authorities. It will not be difficult to familiarize yourself with the relevant documentation. All regulatory documents must be publicly available.

The main NAP on the territory of Moscow is Order No. 35-R dated 09.09.13. At the moment, such a document is still valid.

The cost of evacuation depends on the category of the vehicle. In 2021 it looks like this:

It is also important to note that storing a car in an impound lot also costs a certain amount of money. Everything again depends on the engine power, as well as the category of the vehicle.

At the moment, in 2021, things are as follows:

Category D (if permitted weight is more than 2.5 tons)

You can challenge the unlawful towing of a vehicle in the following ways:

• an application is drawn up in any form;
• all necessary documents are collected;
• Next, you need to contact the traffic police department with evidence.

If the issue cannot be resolved pre-trial, then it will be necessary to go to court. Again, this should be done in the standard way.

Moreover, you should contact the location of the traffic police department, as well as the company that carried out the evacuation.

Judicial practice on this matter is quite extensive. Therefore, it is important to get advice from a good lawyer in advance.

The process of towing cars for disabled people often causes a lot of controversy. Therefore, it is worth familiarizing yourself with all the nuances of the process in advance. In the future, knowledge of legal norms will make it possible to successfully protect your own rights.
