How to write a complaint against the actions of a traffic police officer

When writing an application or complaint, a citizen may have questions.

Let's consider how to correctly draw up the documents necessary to send to the head of the state traffic inspectorate or department, as well as to law enforcement agencies and the court.

The content of the article:

Sample complaint against a traffic police officer to his senior management

There is no general application form for a complaint to the boss of the offending employee.

When writing, you should rely on Article 131 of the Code of Civil Procedure of the Russian Federation, which describes how the application should look like.

First of all, remember that a complaint is written in the same way as a statement and should consist of three main parts:

Introductory. This includes the “header” of the document. Be sure to find out the full name of the body where you are filing the complaint, and the initials of the chief. Don't forget to include your full name, residential address and contact phone number. After the “header”, in the middle of the line, write the name of the document, without quotes and a period – in our case, “Complaint”.
Content, or main part. Here you must reveal the whole essence of your appeal. Indicate all information regarding illegal actions or inactions of the traffic police officer, enter all his data that you know.
Final. Don't forget about the documentation base here. Indicate where you have already contacted to solve the problem, who witnessed the violation, what materials are available - these could be photographs, videos or audio recordings. It is better to include all documents in a list. At the end, be sure to put your date and signature with a transcript.

Examples of complaints to senior management of a traffic police officer:

1) Complaint regarding illegal actions:

When writing in the header of the document, indicate the full name of the boss and the name of the department to which you are applying.

You can also simplify the form without specifying your requirements - as, for example, in court, you just need to write: “I ask you to look into this situation and bring the offender to justice.”

2) Complaint about the inaction of a traffic police officer:

3) Complaint about an administrative violation:

Rules for writing and samples of complaints against a traffic police officer to the prosecutor's office and court

A statement to law enforcement agencies or a court is almost the same.

Take into account the requirements listed in Articles 131-132 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, and follow these rules when writing a complaint:

At the beginning, on the upper right side of the sheet, indicate the full name of the institution or authority you are applying to. Don't forget to include your address and contact information.
Describe briefly but clearly what happened. Enter all the necessary information.
Indicate what damage was caused due to the violation.
Describe where you have already applied and to what authorities.
State your requirements.
Prepare a documentation base, list all the materials confirming what happened.

Sample application to the prosecutor's office:

Examples to court:

Writing an application to the court and prosecutor's office is a complex process. The main thing is to write a statement without errors, corrections, with a full description of the violation that occurred.

There are several executive authorities that accept statements about illegal actions of traffic police officers. This article will discuss where to complain about the traffic police and how to file your appeal to the appropriate authority.

Where to complain about a traffic police officer - authorities that accept citizens' applications

You can complain about the actions of traffic police inspectors by calling 112 or using the traffic police helpline number in Moscow: +7 (495)214-09-66. This is the simplest method and does not require a written complaint. If the matter has taken a serious turn, and the complaint by telephone has not reached higher authorities, you must contact the following authorities:

traffic police department at the place where the offense was committed;
prosecutor's office;
court;
security management;
Internet reception of the President of the Russian Federation.

The procedure for citizens to apply to each of the above authorities has its own nuances, starting from the application form and ending with responses in the manner prescribed by law. Read more about this below.

The procedure for filing applications to various executive authorities

When sending an application in writing, you must remember that this should be done within 10 days after the protocol is completed. Refund of lost time is possible only if there is a good reason: illness, business trip, etc. In the complaint, the vehicle driver must provide the following information:

reasons for contacting the executive authority;
passport data;
name of the authority, case number;
information contained in the operative part of the document;
a list of petitions (if any) and evidence (photos, video recordings);
petition for the repeal of a legal act on an offense.

Registration of citizens' appeals is carried out within 3 days, consideration of complaints within 30.

Complaint addressed to the head of the traffic police

When contacting the traffic police, the driver writes a statement describing the current situation. It is advisable to attach video materials to the document confirming the process of communication between the driver and the department employee.

The application is drawn up in the form of a counter-challenge to the illegal fine. In the application, the driver must indicate formal details: address, passport details, personal contact information. You also need to remember to indicate the details of the employee who committed the offense.

It is advisable to attach to the document the testimony of witnesses who were at the scene of the event. A citizen has the right to personally take his application to the State Traffic Inspectorate, send it by mail or email.

The most acceptable option for the driver is to use the services of a post office. The applicant will have a postal receipt in his hands, which can later serve as proof of sending the document. After sending the letter, the citizen’s complaint will be considered in the manner prescribed by law.

Application to the prosecutor's office

If the complaint to the traffic police department does not bring positive results, then the next step for the driver of the vehicle will be to contact the prosecutor's office. All claims addressed to authorized employees must be made in writing.

The application can be delivered personally to an employee of the prosecutor's office, or it can be sent by registered mail with notification. The document should display the same data as when contacting the traffic police, and also attach the unsubscribe received from the above-mentioned authority.

We remind you! You can have your situation assessed by a lawyer - it's free! Call!

Employees of the prosecutor's office will conduct an inspection based on the documents received and within one month will give a response with approval or refusal of the complaint. If refused, the next step will be to go to court.

An application to a court does not have specific format requirements. The only requirement for the document is that it must be drawn up in the manner prescribed by law. It also indicates the contact and personal information of the applicant. As a rule, the contents of the document are as follows: a detailed description of the incident, employee data, testimony of witnesses (if any), protocol code.

It is advisable for the court to provide video materials taken at the scene of the conflict. The plaintiff may insist on an independent examination. Representatives of the judicial authorities will check the actions of the traffic police officer and draw up a report. Based on this document, the court can decide whether the parties to the conflict are right.

On a note! When going to court, the plaintiff must pay a state fee in the amount of 15% of the minimum wage.

Appeal to the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation

If you were unable to defend your rights in court, there is another option - contact the Internet reception of the President of the Russian Federation. To do this, you need to go to the website of the Presidential Administration and fill out a special form. In most cases the response is immediate.

Important! Complaints submitted electronically are usually reviewed within a month (30 calendar days). The countdown begins from the moment the application is accepted. But there is another deadline, which is 3 days (between the date the application is sent and its acceptance for consideration). In some cases, the period may be extended by another 30 days.

Sample applications

Lawyers will always help you write and file a complaint correctly, but you can do it yourself. First of all, the header of the application is drawn up, in which the plaintiff indicates his personal data and to whom the complaint is addressed. Then everything is standard: in the center they write the word “Statement”, describe the situation below, and then state all the complaints against the traffic police officer.

It is advisable that the application contain references to laws. At the end of the document, you must state your requests based on the current situation. A copy of the protocol and statements of witnesses may be attached to the application. All of the above actions will help establish the fact of a violation and will contribute to the speedy consideration of the case.

Important! It is better to play it safe and send copies of witness statements and copies of other fundamentally important documents.

Additional Information

Citizens cannot abuse the right to appeal to higher authorities. If a citizen's complaint reveals knowingly false accusations, all financial expenses will be recovered from the plaintiff.

Important! In the Russian Federation they can be prosecuted for libel (Criminal Code of the Russian Federation Article 128.1, introduced by Federal Law of July 28, 2012 N 141-FZ). When contacting executive authorities, citizens must provide reliable and truthful information regarding the actions of traffic police officers.

Vehicle drivers can file a complaint only after a protocol has been drawn up. When conducting an inspection, employees of executive bodies will check the data to determine the validity of issuing a fine by the traffic police officer.

If the driver’s innocence is proven, all previously carried out decisions will be canceled and the driver will be found not guilty. The guilty person involved in the case, on the contrary, will be brought to justice.

What actions of an employee may give rise to a complaint?

Citizens have the right to write a complaint in the following cases:

A traffic police officer being intoxicated.
Commitment by a traffic police officer of actions that entailed a threat to life and health.
Violation of road safety rules by a traffic police officer.
Exceeding official duties.
Requiring a vehicle driver to stop in an unauthorized place.
In case of violation of the rules of inspection and inspection of the owner's vehicle.

The work of traffic police officers is directly controlled by:

traffic police chiefs;
Security Service Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs; Prosecutor's Office;
Investigative committee.

If violations are detected on the part of traffic police officers, you must immediately contact the appropriate authorities. You can challenge an unlawful decision of a traffic police inspector in the manner prescribed by law. This is the only way to hold accountable an employee who is not doing his job in good faith and to defend his rights.

Complaint against the actions of a traffic police officer: where to file

Every driver, if he does not agree with the decision of a traffic police officer, has the right to write a complaint against him. Thus, saving yourself from a fine for unfair punishment and teaching a dishonest inspector a lesson, because any statement about illegal actions, especially if it is justified, will adversely affect the traffic cop’s performance.

Powers of traffic police officers

Before you start writing a complaint, you need to know about the main powers of a traffic police inspector:

The traffic police officer may ask you to hand over documents for the vehicle and driver's license.
The patrol inspector has the right to stop the car at any place. True, there are places specified by law where stopping is prohibited or undesirable.
The traffic cop also has the right to ask the driver to leave the car or open the trunk. But there are also reservations to this rule, according to which such actions are allowed to be carried out in case of special circumstances: suspected technical problems in transport or the driver’s intoxication. In fact, the law lists circumstances that arise only as a result of a subjective assessment of a traffic police officer, so there is no point in complaining in such a situation about the adequacy of the traffic cop.
An employee of the State Traffic Inspectorate can deprive a driver of a driver’s license if he is drunk.
Moreover, the traffic cop has the right to draw up a report on the driver for violating traffic rules, and even make a decision to bring him to administrative responsibility.

When a traffic police inspector complies with all the listed rules and does not break the law, then all complaints against him will be ineffective. In addition, slander against a traffic police officer will result in punishment.

Reasons for complaints

It is necessary to file a claim against the traffic cop only if he has made a corresponding decision and drawn up a protocol , and the driver does not agree with such a decision. In this situation, it will be considered according to the procedural norms of the Code of the Russian Federation.

When considering the filed complaint, the court will check the validity of imposing a fine on the motorist. When the justice authorities do not agree with the arguments presented by the traffic police officer, they cancel the decision and find the driver not guilty of the violation charged against him.

In addition, you can complain about certain actions or inactions of patrol service employees.

How to properly file a complaint?

First of all, you should create a header for the application . To do this, you must provide contact details and addresses of the complaint. This is followed by the title of the document: in the center of the document you must indicate a statement or complaint about illegal actions that resulted in a violation of rights.

Then the essence of the complaint against the traffic police officer is fully described. The event that preceded the offense and the actions of the traffic cop must be stated in writing. It is better to write briefly but meaningfully, not forgetting to indicate facts and dates. If there are witnesses, be sure to mention them in the complaint.

In addition, the statement must contain references to laws, otherwise it makes no sense. If you do not indicate them, then, most likely, the answer will come that the submitted application does not show any violations in the actions of the traffic police inspector.

At the end of the application, you must indicate your request , based on the situation described above. For example, you want them to carry out an inspection on a specifically described case or even monitor the work of other traffic police officers. You can also indicate that you demand that the unscrupulous traffic cop be punished, depending on his actions.

Be sure to include a copy of the violation report with your completed complaint to facilitate review of the case. In addition, it will help establish whether a violation actually occurred.

If there is evidence that the traffic police officer violated your rights, then write about this in the application. But they will have to be provided during the consideration of the case. When planning to send a complaint along with evidence, it is better to use copies of documents, since there is a possibility that they will not reach their destination.

Preparing a complaint against a traffic police officer

An application for illegal actions of an inspector can be written in several places at once:

Prosecutor's Office;
The head of the State Traffic Inspectorate department where the employee works;
To court.

Please note that you can file a complaint within 10 calendar days, excluding weekends and holidays, from the date of drawing up the protocol. Of course, it is possible to restore this period, but only if there is a good reason: business trip, illness, and so on.

In your complaint against the actions of traffic police inspectors, please include the following information:

Facts on which the driver considers the decision made illegal;
Full name of the State Traffic Inspectorate or court;
Passport and other data of the citizen submitting the application;
The number and other details of the decision on the case, as well as the content of the operative part of the document;
List of attached petitions, evidence and other papers;
A request to change or completely cancel the legal act on the offense.

Moreover, this statement must be signed by the driver who was brought to administrative responsibility, or his lawyer.

Complaint to the traffic police

The model for constructing a complaint against a traffic police inspector to his supervisor for unlawful actions is similar to the model for challenging a decision on an illegal fine . When filling it out, the driver must also fill in the formal details and describe the current situation. In addition, the sample must indicate the postal address, passport details and contact numbers of the applicant, as well as the name of the body to which the complaint is being filed.

You should also indicate the details of the traffic police inspector whose actions you want to appeal. Therefore, do not forget to write down his initials, position, last name and even badge number when communicating with him. In the complaint, indicate the date when exactly the conflict with the violation of rights occurred and describe in detail all the circumstances.

Many motorists who are faced with this problem recommend that drivers record the entire process of interaction with an employee on camera. A copy of this video on disk should be attached to the text of the application. If it is not possible to take a video, then take photographs from the scene. It is advisable to attach to the complaint the testimony of witnesses who can refute or confirm the driver’s words , and copies of the papers that the inspector handed over.

After this, the document must be signed by the submitter or a person with a power of attorney. It also indicates the date the complaint was written. The completed application can be taken to the traffic police office yourself, sent via the Internet or by mail. It is best, of course, to use the last option, since the complainant will keep the postal receipt in his hands. The applicant's charges will be considered within a month from the date of receipt of the documents.

Complaint to the prosecutor's office against a traffic police inspector

If, after contacting the higher authorities of the traffic police about the illegal actions of an employee, you were unable to achieve justice, you can try to send a complaint to the prosecutor's office. The claim must be submitted in writing , indicating information about unlawful actions against the submitter.

A correctly completed complaint should be sent as a valuable notification letter or brought in person to the authorities. By the way, information about illegal actions of inspectors can be provided by calling hotlines. If you plan to submit your application in writing, then be sure to indicate:

Claims against a patrol officer;
The address where you are sending the application and the name of the responsible person;
Passport details;
Date of document preparation and signature.

If there are documents confirming the employee’s illegal actions, then attach copies of them to the complaint . Often, when considering a claim, the relevant authorities will use information obtained from witnesses to the situation.

After the inspection, the driver who disagrees with the decision of the traffic police officer receives a response with a refusal or approval of the complaint. The prosecutor's office usually considers such a claim within 30 days. If you receive a refusal, your only option is to try going to court.

Filing a complaint with the judiciary

When submitting a sample claim against a decision or action of a traffic police officer to the court, you need to understand that this paper does not have a strict format . The main thing is that the document meets the standards of the civil law code, and also contains: requirements, contact and personal information about the applicant; name of the court; a detailed description of the events that happened; information about the inspector; links to articles of traffic rules, civil procedure codes and administrative codes; eyewitness testimony; protocol number; signature and date.

When the inspector does not admit guilt, evidence should be provided in the complaint: testimony, photographs or video recordings taken at the scene of the conflict. If the plaintiff complains against a State Traffic Inspectorate employee due to the fact that his decision was biased, unprofessional or biased, he should resort to an independent examination . Qualified professionals will assess the situation and prepare a written report. Based on this, the court will be able to conclude who exactly is right in the current situation.

But before filing a claim in court against a traffic police inspector, you must pay a state fee, the amount of which is equal to 15% of the minimum salary.

If traffic police officers acted outside the law and violated the driver’s rights, then it is imperative to challenge their decision. To prove that you are right, it is better to contact experienced lawyers who can find the necessary arguments.

Specialists will independently file a complaint against unlawful actions of police inspectors and collect evidence . In addition, legal advice will help you feel more confident when communicating with them, as well as achieve justice in case of violation of rights.

Sample complaint against a traffic police inspector

State Traffic Safety Inspectorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia

around the city of St. Petersburg

and Leningrad region

Sviridenko Sergei Petrovich

from Stoilovsky Ivan Alekseevich,

residing at:

St. Petersburg, st. Ak. Pavlova, 43

On May 05, 2016 at 17:45, while driving a personal car Fiat L500 Trekking, license plate A 123 AA 456 and moving towards the center, traffic police inspector A. S. Romanchuk was stopped.

The traffic police inspector accused me of speeding and claimed that I was driving at a speed of 106 km/h instead of the permitted 60 km/h on this section of the road. In response to my request to provide evidence of my guilt and provide printouts of the speed control device, the employee refused without explanation.

My car was moving within the permitted speed limit in this area. There were a lot of cars, the section of the road was quite narrow, so changing lanes and, accordingly, exceeding the speed limit were impossible.

In the car with me was my wife, Stoilovskaya Valeria Viktorovna, born 05/28/1984, and my colleague Demyanenko Denis Alekseevich, born 02/16/1983, but inspector Romanchuk A.S. categorically refused to enter into the protocol on the administrative violation as witnesses. He justified his refusal by the fact that “they are interested parties.” However, according to the legislation of the Russian Federation, “a person who may be aware of the circumstances of the case to be established may be called as a witness in a case of an administrative offense” (Article 25.6 of the Code of Administrative Offenses). I would also like to add that during the preparation of the protocol, traffic police inspector A.S. Romanchuk behaved incorrectly and was rude to my wife.

Thus, there is an irremovable doubt about the proof of my guilt.

Considering the above violations, I ask:

Terminate the proceedings under the protocol on administrative offense No. AA 25-45 AS dated May 5, 2016.
Impose a disciplinary sanction on traffic police inspector A. S. Romanchuk.
Answer me in writing in compliance with the deadlines established by law. Please send the letter to your place of residence.

May 10, 2016 signature _____ / Stoilovsky I. A. /

Copy of administrative protocol No. AA 25-45 AS dated May 5, 2016
Testimony of Stoilovskaya V.V. and Demyanenko D.A.

Where to write a complaint against a traffic police inspector

Depending on what actions you expect in relation to the traffic police officer, you can send a complaint:

The head of the traffic police department at your place of registration - bringing the inspector to administrative responsibility.

The prosecutor's office or court - bringing the inspector to criminal liability.

To the head of the traffic police

You can challenge the actions of a traffic police officer by sending a complaint to the head of the district traffic police. The complaint must be filed within 10 days from the date of drawing up the protocol.

The deadline for going to court is within 3 months from the date the traffic police inspector draws up a protocol on the violation.

If the complaint is drawn up in the name of the head of the traffic police, then
“Complaint” is written in the center of the sheet, but when filing a complaint with the court, you need to write “Application”. You can ask for a sample application in court, but it almost completely repeats the complaint to the traffic police.

As legal practice shows, going to court is the most effective way to appeal against the illegal actions of a traffic police inspector. Filing an application to the court is subject to a state fee in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation.

The period for consideration of the complaint is 60 days.

Traffic police website

One option to complain about a traffic police officer is to write an electronic complaint on the official website of the State Traffic Inspectorate www.gibdd.ru using the online service.

How to file a complaint against the traffic police?

Good afternoon, dear reader.

This article will discuss how to file a complaint with the traffic police. In practice, driver dissatisfaction can be caused by various reasons. For example, a driver is dissatisfied with a decision to impose an administrative fine or wants to appeal against unlawful actions of traffic police officers.

Today we will look at how to make a complaint to the traffic police and where to file it. Let's get started.

Complaint against a decision to impose an administrative fine

If the driver does not agree with the decision to impose a fine by the traffic police, he can file a corresponding complaint.

Quite often, the reason for a complaint can be a decision to video record a violation.

In this case, you need to file a complaint with the traffic police department that issued the decision (its details are indicated in the decision). In this case, the text of the complaint must contain evidence of your innocence with references to clauses of regulatory legal documents.

Complaint against the actions of a traffic police officer

A complaint about the behavior of a traffic police inspector can be filed in various cases. For example, a driver may be dissatisfied with the boorish behavior of an employee when stopping to check documents. However, misconduct can also occur in other situations. A driver's rights may be violated when registering a vehicle, when replacing a driver's license, when passing an exam at the traffic police, etc.

A complaint about unlawful actions of a traffic police inspector can be filed:

A senior person in the traffic police (head of the department);
To the prosecutor's office;
To court.

How to file a complaint?

In principle, a complaint can be drawn up in any form. However, if you wish, you can use the following example:

Features of filing a complaint:

1. In the header, indicate the organization and official to whom you are sending the complaint. In the example, this is the head of the traffic police department. If you are sending a complaint to the prosecutor's office, please indicate its details in the header.

2. In the text of the complaint, describe the situation as fully as possible and state the essence of your complaint. Provide links to clauses of regulatory documents that were violated.

3. Specify the requirements for the official (conduct a check on the employee, speed up the process of issuing a certificate, etc.).

4. Attach evidence of your words to the complaint. You can learn about collecting evidence when communicating with an inspector in the free audio course “Secrets of Communication with the Traffic Police.”

If there is no evidence, submit a complaint without it. Of course, in this case the chances of a decision in your favor are less, but they still remain.

5. Place the date of the application and your signature.

How to file a complaint against a traffic police officer?

There are several ways to file a complaint:

1. In person . In this case, print out two copies of the complaint. One of them will remain with the traffic police, and on the second copy the employees will make a note about acceptance of the document.

2. By mail . The complaint can be sent by registered mail with a return receipt stamp.

3. Via the Internet . You can also file a complaint with the traffic police online. There are several options available:

Official website of the traffic police.
Official website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Government services portal.
Pre-trial appeal system (do.gosuslugi.ru).

If you decide to file a complaint online, you do not need to fill out the document on paper. Just fill out the appropriate form on the traffic police website.

Why should you file a complaint?

In practice, a driver very often doubts whether to file a complaint against a traffic police officer.

Usually doubts are caused by the fact that the driver is not sure that his appeal will have at least some result. Those. the driver thinks that he will only waste time drawing up papers and this will ultimately lead to nothing. Especially if the driver has no evidence of his own innocence.

In this case, I recommend relying on the following idea. Even if your statement does not result in punishment from the traffic police officer, it will still be recorded and placed in the correct pile. When there are enough such complaints, the inspector will be held accountable. In practice, your complaint may end up last in the pile. So if you are faced with unlawful actions of traffic police officers, feel free to write a complaint. The same applies to other public and private organizations.

Good luck on the roads!

Good luck on the roads!

Hello. A situation happened, a traffic police officer stopped me, saying that I allegedly violated the traffic rules. They drew up a protocol (and the protocol was drawn up by another employee) under Article 12.15.ch4. This means they are standing, filming, filming somewhere 150-200 meters from the turn, where the dividing line merges. If you turn on the Yandex Yandex panorama, you can clearly see the dividing strip. They called the traffic police for review, they didn’t show the video, but even if they show the strip, the strip merges. I’m 100% sure that there are no violations. So the question is, where should I file a complaint? What do I think? I’m not the only one, and they stand and carry out the plan (for a fool). And in general, what to do in such a situation?

Help punish the boor!

On August 5, 2017, returning home, I found a Mazda car with license plate A762ON43 standing on the sidewalk. The driver was not there. I waited for him and in response to my request to remove the car he was sent. I photographed the offender’s car and sent a complaint to the traffic police through the website, with the following content:

On August 5, 2017, at 4:15 p.m., the driver of a Mazda car with state number A762ON43 violated paragraph 12.2 of the traffic rules and parked his car on the sidewalk. The violation occurred at the address Kirov, Industrialnaya St., 16, entrance 1. I ask you to punish the offender under Part 3 of Article 12.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses and inform me about the results of the consideration of this case.

I am attaching to the application:

— photographs of the violation site (2 pieces);

A week later they call me from the traffic police and ask me to confirm my testimony, but I inform them that I am currently out of town and ask for permission to appear with them in a week. They answer me it's too late and hang up.

Then comes the refusal to initiate an administrative case

I re-submitted a complaint about this refusal with the following content:

On August 15, 2017, I received a refusal to initiate an administrative case based on my application No. 20/4552. I do not agree with this. They called me and invited me to provide clarification on my application, but I was absent from the city, which I reported in a telephone conversation and asked to postpone my visit for a week. Also in the attached photographs there are geotags and the date is recorded. They clearly show violations of paragraph 12.2 of the traffic rules. In this regard, I ask you to punish the offender and cancel the decision to refuse.

Then I was called to the traffic police again. It asked me to confirm my statement, which I did. A week later the following letter arrives!

I don’t understand at all what this is all based on. Why do traffic police officers refuse to punish the violator? Please help me write correctly and advise where to write!

Vladimir , hello.

You can write a complaint to a superior person at the traffic police or to the prosecutor's office. If you think that traffic police officers are acting unlawfully, then you should start filing a complaint.

Good luck on the roads!

Anton , hello.

I have such a case. 06/05/2018 at 21:45 I was standing alone near the bathhouse, a traffic police car drove up to me and they didn’t introduce themselves because I don’t remember their rank. and they began to fine me for allegedly passing in the wrong place. I asked for a video recording of me crossing the road in the wrong place, to which I received a firm refusal, then I asked to provide me with my route sheet, that is, where they should patrol at this time, I also received a firm refusal, but I think that the senior inspectors and authorities they will not send a company car with two employees to patrol the city bathhouse, this is a completely different article 89 r f. I want to add that the inspectors were polite and even promised to put me in jail for 15 days for an unpaid fine. I first wrote to you, if you don’t take action, I’ll go to court and go further to the authorities, since I already have more than 20 people I know who were also fined without providing facts about the offenses

I live in the city of St. Petersburg. I was the owner of a FORD FOCUS vehicle, my son drove this vehicle under a general power of attorney. On June 02, 2018, the FORD FOCUS vehicle was sold and deregistered. Why am I still receiving fines? I am not the owner of this vehicle. Fines come from the TsAFAP traffic police department of the traffic police of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Republic of Ingushetia. Please do not send other people's fines to my address anymore.

In the parking lot, the driver destroyed 3 cars. Including my car. When colliding with stationary cars, the driver who made the collision was injured. How long does it take to consider causing harm if a person has caused harm to himself? At the same time, the driver does not recognize the driver who hit the parked cars. Claiming that an oncoming car interfered with him. There is a video that captures the moment when our cars were hit

Do traffic police officers have the right to stop cars in a dedicated bus lane? That is, their car is parked on the allocated lane, they stop the car and indicate the stopping place on the allocated lane, there are no permit markings for crossing the lane?

The driver must stop the car exactly where the traffic controller indicated. And this will not be a violation.
