Has the situation improved after increasing the punishment
As practice shows, as a penalty for wrong parking or increases, it does not affect the situation on the roads.Here and now.Drivers do not become any better ride, better than any park.Experts predicted such a development even before the adoption of the amendments, as this result was quite predictable.Why is this happening?
Firstly, it was still enough time for the new system work.And it's not just technical issues;you need to have a clear understanding of the drivers appeared that for breaking the rules will be followed by severe punishment.
Secondly, the whole system is in doubt, due to the fact that it still does not work everywhere, and not at full strength.Simply put, there is no principle of inevitability of punishment, which means that the drivers are still counting on the fact that "today will carry."
And yet: to pay or not to pay?
pay or not to pay the fine for parking?Of course, if he is lawfully discharged, it must repay.And if the driver is 100% sure that no crime he did not commit?Lawyers recommend that in such a situation to seek help to justice, and today there are cases where the Court stands on the side of the vehicle owner.
However, those people who have already encountered a similar problem, recognize that the time and effort spent on this incredibly much.You have to collect documents, attend meetings that can be carried, and therefore, time off from work to spend money on a trip around the city, and so on. N. It turns out that sometimes it is cheaper to pay the wrongfully fined than to prove his innocence in court.
One can only hope that in the future the situation will change for the better: drivers will be parked only on the rules and individual fines will be issued lawfully.
