Traffic police fines for parking on the lawn

What is the fine for parking on a lawn in 2019?

To protect the amenities of cities and towns, traffic regulations contain important parking regulations. One of these rules is the restriction of parking on the lawn.

The concept of “lawn” in traffic regulations – what is it?

The amounts of fines for parking on the lawn are established in the laws of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Due to the fact that in each region the punishment is established by its own local law, the concept of “lawn” has differences:

In accordance with the Moscow Law on Offenses, a lawn is equal to the territory occupied by plantings (Article 4.18);

The law of St. Petersburg defines a lawn as a part of a land plot limited by a curb, covered with natural or artificial plantings (Article 32, note).

According to GOST 28329-89, a lawn is understood as a plot of land with an artificially grown grass cover, which is the basis for parkland (clause 38);

Amount of fines in federal cities and regions

The laws of each region establish different fines for unauthorized parking on the lawn.

Current fine amounts in rubles

for an individual

for officials

for a legal entity

The largest amounts are established by the laws of federal cities. In Moscow, a citizen will be charged 5,000 rubles for parking on a lawn. If the vehicle is registered to a legal entity, the fine can reach 300 thousand rubles.

The legislation of the Northern capital determines the minimum fine to be 3,000 rubles. – for citizens, 5000 rubles. – for officials, and 150,000 – for legal entities.

In regional centers far from the capital, sanctions are smaller and can vary from 500 to 60,000 rubles. For example, according to the Law of the Ryazan Region dated December 4, 2008, it is determined that individuals. a person must pay 500 rubles for entering the lawn part for the first time and up to 2000 rubles for a repeated violation (clause 3.5). The 2003 Law of the Nizhny Novgorod Region in Article 3.10 determines that the minimum fine of 2,000 rubles is established for citizens, and the maximum fine for legal entities is 60,000 rubles.

The amount of the payment will depend on the time the offender is caught for committing this action. If the vehicle is left in such territory for the first time, the punishment will be minimal. For malicious repeated violation of city rules, the driver can pay tens of times more.

Does the time of year affect the violation?

Due to the fact that the presence of green areas cannot be observed in every season, a logical question arises: is it possible to be held liable for parking on the lawn in winter?

According to the position of the legislator, set out in the Administrative Code, the ban on parking on the lawn does not depend on the time of year. That is, it is possible to formally hold people accountable for parking on an area allocated for a lawn even in winter. This allows you to protect an area of soil that may be subject to serious deformation when vehicles drive onto it, even in winter.

On the other hand, fines for driving on the lawn in winter have been successfully challenged by drivers many times, since in winter it is impossible to establish clear boundaries of such zones.

Is it possible to challenge a fine?

A fine for driving on the lawn can be contested. It is possible to avoid liability for such parking in the following cases:

discrepancies between the actual location of the lawn and the site plan approved by government agencies;

the absence of any plantings in the area where the driver parked;

if the road user stopped and did not park on the lawn, and he is charged with “parking”;

if parking was necessary in an emergency, and the local area does not provide parking zones.

To get the fine cancelled, you need to pay attention to all the details of the parking lot and take into account how the car was parked in the lot, whether the area was covered with grass, how long the car was left, and so on. If possible, details should be captured in photos or videos and telephone numbers of witnesses should be collected.

Who is held accountable?

According to Art. 28.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, traffic police officers who inspect local areas can fine you for parking in an unspecified place, including in a grassy area. To confirm the right to draw up a protocol on violation, the employee must:

be on duty;

have insignia;

have serial protocol forms to record violations.

In addition to the traffic police, fines for damage to courtyard areas can be issued by an employee of the district administration if:

the lawn is located within the territory supervised by the state structure;

such powers are vested in him by regional laws.

To which authority can a complaint be filed?

To appeal the imposed penalty, the driver found guilty can contact:

to the official whose subordinate drew up the resolution;

When contacting a higher official, it is necessary to draw up a complaint, which should reflect:

full name, address, passport details of the applicant;

facts of the event;

details of the person who compiled the protocol;

details (date and number) of the document by which the driver is held accountable;

grounds for canceling the imposed fine;

date and signature of the applicant.

You can appeal the order either during a personal appearance before the head of the traffic police (head of administration), or by sending an application by post.

In parallel with challenging the fine in a government agency, you can initiate a judicial procedure for considering objections.

If the amount of the fine is less than 50 thousand rubles, the complaint is filed in the magistrate’s court, if more - in the district courts at the place of residence of the applicant. When filing a complaint against civil servants, you do not have to pay a court fee.

If the protest to the official does not seem to be effective to the citizen, the complaint can be immediately filed in court.

Is there a discount when paying a fine?

As a general rule, in case of violations of the rules for driving a vehicle established by federal legislation, the driver may be given a 50 percent discount if the fine is paid within 20 days from the date of drawing up the decision on collection. The twenty-day period is counted from the date stamped on the fine paper.

However, since lawn entry restrictions are provided by local regulations, no discount will be provided for early payment for this violation.

In what cases is parking in green areas permitted?

Judicial practice and regional legislation determine the cases in which it is possible to enter planted areas of the earth's surface. In particular, there will be no punishment if the driver left the car:

in modern eco-parking lots, which are covered with special soil and are not damaged by mechanical impact;

in a specially designated parking area equipped with a “Parking” sign;

with the permission of the traffic police;

in a situation of force majeure or emergency.

Even if in such cases a report is drawn up against the driver, it can easily be challenged in court.

Parking rules

The traffic rules stipulate that vehicles can be parked:

on the sides or edges of the roadway;

in specially designated areas marked with the appropriate symbol;

on marked areas near buildings and structures.

It is strictly forbidden to abandon the car:

on a highway or highway;

closer than 50 meters from the railway crossing;

in areas that block visibility (at the exit from courtyards, near pedestrian crossings, near turns);

on bridges, overpasses and tunnels.

These rules apply to standard situations. In emergency cases, you can stop the car even in prohibited places, but only with the use of emergency signals and only if the safety of other road users is ensured.

How to deal with violators

You can often observe situations where cars are placed directly on areas and sites planted as parks, which destroys the soil and plantings.

To prevent the lawn from subsiding under the wheels of cars, special warning signs are installed in yards about the inadmissibility of leaving a car on a grassy surface. Also, the area prohibited from parking can be fenced off with metal barriers in the form of fences, which will prevent access to the sidewalks.

To punish careless drivers, video surveillance equipment can be installed in yards, which will record the license plates of violators. You can also take a photograph of the car on the lawn, and the fact itself can be stated in a complaint, which will be signed by several neighbors. Such statements, accompanied by photographic materials, can be sent to the head of the traffic police or to the district administration, whose powers include holding transport owners accountable.

Fine for parking on the lawn for legal entities

Everyone knows that it is necessary to park a car only in designated areas. The parking ban applies to such areas of the vehicle route as public transport stops, places for the disabled, areas with prohibitory signs, sidewalks, etc. MADI is issuing fines to car owners for parking on the lawn in 2019 with particular diligence. In what situations is this legal? Let's try to figure it out.

When it comes to federal legal regulations governing traffic rules, the term “lawn” does not appear in any legal document or regulation. The lack of a legal interpretation of the concept does not exclude the possibility of running into a fine if this violation is recorded by regional regulations.

All fines for parking cars on the lawn refer to articles of regional legislation related to the improvement of a specific subject of the Federation. It is noteworthy that in many regions of the Russian Federation there is no fine for damage to grass lawns. Then drivers are fined on the basis of Article 12.19 of the Code of Administrative Violations of Russia (wrong parking).

Important: in some cities of the Russian Federation there are no fines for lawn parking; drivers compensate for the cost of damaged cover without drawing up a protocol (for example, in Samara).

Sometimes the actions of inspectors when drawing up protocols for parking on the lawn reach the point of absurdity. The fact is that regional Codes of Administrative Offenses and municipal legislative acts on landscaping establish fines that exceed the federal amount.

The Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, put into effect by Law No. FZ-195 of December 30, 2001, provides for the punishment of drivers for stopping a car in the wrong place under Art. 12.19. At the same time, the fine for residents of Moscow and St. Petersburg is 2,500 rubles, for other Russians - 500 rubles.

Regional authorities, when developing local Administrative Codes and acts on landscaping, set their own amount of penalties for hitting a lawn; the range of this figure is 500 - 5,000 rubles.

For Muscovites and car owners in St. Petersburg - special fines

Legislators in both capitals set the amount of penalties 2 times higher than prescribed by federal legislation. Based on the Moscow Law “On the Protection of Green Spaces” and the capital’s Code of Administrative Offenses of November 21, 2007, the punishment for drivers who damage green spaces (lawns) is provided in the following amount:

citizens – 5 thousand rubles;
officials – 30 thousand rubles;
legal entities – 300 thousand rubles.

What fine will motorists face for parking on the lawn?

Any citizen who gets behind the wheel of a car must comply with the Traffic Rules and other regulations governing the movement of vehicles, as well as their parking.

Parking a car on the lawn is one of the most controversial violations. Federal law does not establish penalties for this action. The legality of holding a car owner liable is determined based on local laws and regulations.

What is considered a lawn when parking a vehicle?

A lawn is an area of land planted with grass. It serves as an element of landscaping. There are lawns in parks and squares where they are intended for walking. In squares and parks, lawns are not always separated by curbstones. But in these cases they do not have a direct connection with the highway.

Considering the fact that the lawn is not part of the road and is usually separated from it by a curb, parking a car in such a place is a violation of the Traffic Rules.

To be fair, it should be noted that the concept of “lawn” is not in the Code of Administrative Offenses and the Traffic Regulations. Hence many controversial issues regarding fines. However, in regional laws you can find different designations for this territory. Among other things, they contain provisions where the authorities demand payment from the culprit for damage to the lawn.

What is the fine for parking on the lawn?

Next, we will consider the amount of administrative punishment in 2019 for individuals, officials and legal entities in federal cities of the Russian Federation, and then in other regions.

Administrative responsibility in Moscow

In Moscow, a regulatory body such as the Traffic Management Center, operating under the city government, can issue a fine.

For such a violation on the basis of Article 8.25 of Moscow Law No. 45 of November 21, 2007:

an individual will be fined 5,000 rubles. ;
officials will have to pay 30,000 rubles. ;
and for organizations – 300,000 rubles.

Violation of parking rules in St. Petersburg

In the Northern capital, in accordance with Article 32 of St. Petersburg Law No. 273-70 of May 31, 2010, the following fines are imposed for parking on the lawn:

for individuals: 3-5 thousand rubles. ;
for officials: 5-40 thousand rubles. ;
for legal entities: 150-500 thousand rubles.

How much will you have to pay for parking in a green zone in other regions?

In other Russian regions, the amount of fines is determined by local regulations. If there is no such law in the subject, then the norm specified in the Code of Administrative Offenses (Article 12.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses) is adopted - 500 rubles.

Is the detention of a vehicle applied according to the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation?

No . The conditions under which a vehicle can be towed from the scene of a traffic violation are specified in Article 27.13 of the Administrative Code. In particular, it says that detention is permitted if the car interferes with other vehicles or is within the coverage area of signs prohibiting movement. In the case where the car owner left his car on the grass, evacuation cannot be used. The fact is that in this place it does not interfere with either pedestrians or other cars.

If the driver returns and finds that his car is not there, he must act as follows:

Find out which official made the decision to send the car to the impound lot.
File a complaint with the court or prosecutor's office that illegal actions were taken against him and his vehicle.
Dispute the expenses incurred by him, which were charged for keeping the car in the impound lot and for towing it.

A similar action must be taken if the parking lot employees refuse to return the car. The most reasonable solution in this case would be to pay the issued receipt, after which the car must be returned. And after that, you can file a lawsuit demanding a refund of expenses, since the evacuation was illegal.

The only valid reason why a car can be detained is if it interferes with the operation of special equipment of public utilities or the carrying out of work. Abandoned cars are also detained and sent to impound lots.

If the car was left on the lawn, but at least one of its wheels is located on the sidewalk or other place that is not intended for parking, then detaining the car is permitted by law.

Parking on lawns in winter: does the time of year affect it?

This is one of the most common questions regarding lawn fines. If in summer it is not difficult to determine the boundaries of the lawn, then in winter it is much more difficult to do this. It is easier for the driver to prove that he did not violate anything.

However, the Code of Administrative Offenses does not stipulate the conditions under which violations depend on the time of year. But in fact, if the car was left even on a completely snow-covered area, which is actually a lawn, then damage is caused to this place: deformation can lead to the grass covering being uneven and damaged in summer.

For the reasons mentioned above, traffic police officers often do not issue a fine. In doing so, they are guided by the following. If the area is completely covered with snow, then no fine will be imposed . When even a small area with plantings is visible, they believe that the car was parked on the lawn.

There may be local regulations that prohibit parking on lawns at any time of the year. Then car owners will have to pay the issued receipts, especially if this area is marked accordingly on the cadastral map.

Who issues a fine for driving on the lawn?

Traffic police or local administration employees have the right to issue a fine . The State Traffic Inspectorate is looking into this because it is illegal parking. If the lawn is located in a residential area, then the administration of the locality decides the issue.

The grounds for applying sanctions are as follows:

the vehicle is located in an unauthorized parking place;
obtaining information from the media or public organizations;
complaint from the owners or management company.

Where can I complain about illegal parking?

Information about parking on the lawn is sent to the administration or the traffic police. Video materials or photographs are attached as evidence, in which the license plate number of the car must be clearly visible. Additionally, the photo or video should show address signs or specific buildings to easily identify the area.

In some situations, traffic police officers or representatives of local authorities do not initiate proceedings at the request of citizens if, for example, an individual photographed the violation on his phone. This happens because it is necessary to identify the car from the photo, find its owner, call it to you, interview it, etc. Therefore, the applicant receives an “unsubscribe” in response.

In this case, you can file a complaint with the prosecutor’s office regarding the inaction of the relevant authority. Article 1.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses states that the objectives of the legislation on administrative offenses include protecting the sanitary and epidemiological well-being of citizens and preventing the commission of administrative offenses.

How to challenge (appeal) a decision?

If the driver believes that he was issued a fine illegally, he can appeal it. But this must be done within 10 days from the date of receipt of the notification.

There must also be compelling reasons for such a statement. For example, it is not clear that the car is parked on the lawn, it is difficult to determine the exact location of the car, etc. Another reason for appeal may be the objective need to stay in this particular place.

There are other reasons when a driver can win a dispute and avoid punishment:

the area that is considered a lawn is not present on the plan of this territory;
there is no grass cover or any greenery at all;
The car owner stopped on the lawn and did not turn off the engine, and he was given a fine for parking.

A complaint about unjustified prosecution can be submitted to the traffic police in person or sent by mail.

Car owners can also challenge the fine in court. This is a more expensive method, but sometimes the most effective. This is done when the land is not a lawn. Then you should submit an application to the court and attach a copy of the cadastral plat, which indicates the purpose of each territory. We recommend asking a question to a car lawyer on our website before filing a claim. It's free.

In order to challenge the punishment, submit the following documents:

a statement expressing disagreement with the decision;
a copy of the resolution itself;
documents confirming the motorist’s innocence.

Evidence may include witness statements, a site plan, video recorders or surveillance cameras.

How to pay and is there a discount?

Payment details are indicated in the notice. The Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation provides for a discount when the offender pays the fine in full within 20 days . In this case, the amount of the fine for hitting a lawn is halved.

The maximum period for payment is 60 days . This condition is contained in Article 32.2 of the Administrative Code. It does not apply to all types of fines, but the provisions of Art. 12.19 are not included in the exceptions.

The following payment methods are available:

at the cash desk of Sberbank or another credit organization;
from a plastic card through remote service systems;
via terminals.

There is no clear definition of what is a lawn in legal acts. However, this concept can be defined in local laws, which are fundamental in establishing such a violation.

The amount of fines for the green zone is set by the subjects independently. If a car owner believes that he was brought to justice illegally, and even more so that a car left on the lawn was towed away, he can file a complaint with the traffic police, the prosecutor's office or the court.

When a violation is proven, you need to pay the issued receipt. But if this is done within 20 days, the fine is reduced by half.

Fine for parking on the lawn

With the development of the modern world, there are more and more motorists on the streets. The main problem is parking, which is not enough for such a number of vehicles. Because of this, car owners resort to various tricks and park their cars on sidewalks or lawns. Sometimes the driver does not even suspect that he is violating traffic rules by parking in the wrong place. To avoid getting into an unpleasant situation when parking on the grass, you should know the nuances of this type of parking.

What can be considered a lawn?

Unfortunately, legislation and traffic regulations do not specifically define a lawn. Not every piece of land with grass can be classified as a lawn, but some traffic police officers can take advantage of this circumstance by illegally issuing violations to drivers.

If we turn to the Code of Administrative Offences, there is a fine for parking in green areas and playgrounds. It can be considered that the city's landscaped areas also fit this description, including parks, courtyards and various recreational areas.

Fields or forests where many motorists go to relax cannot be considered a lawn; parking in the forest is not considered a violation. Unless, of course, the forest belt is damaged. Damage to landscaped areas is also punishable by a fine if the car damages bushes or flowers.

Amount of penalty for parking

The amount of the monetary penalty varies depending on where the violation occurred. In Moscow and St. Petersburg, penalties are much higher than in other regions of Russia.

The defining laws by which drivers are fined are:

Moscow Law on the protection of existing green spaces dated 05.05.1999 No. 17;
about administrative violations in relation to objects that are intended for landscaping.

Legislative documents may change in certain regions of Russia; attention should be paid to the date of the document and its relevance. Since the documents change with the edition, new features of the violation are added. The size of the fine may also change.

Especially, you need to take into account the fact that for legal entities, individuals and officials, collection amounts vary.

Individuals – 5,000 rubles.
Officials - from 10,000 to 50,000 rubles.
Legal entities - from 30,000 to 100,000 rubles.

The amount of damage caused by an individual does not affect the amount of the penalty. But it is worth remembering that there is a risk of the car being removed by a tow truck, and this means additional costs of another 5,000 rubles for equipment services.

Penalties in Russian regions have more reasonable amounts. Most sanctions are determined by the city administration and in some regions amount to only a thousand rubles. If we take the region of the Kirov region as an example, the amounts will be as follows:

for ordinary citizens – 1,000 rubles;
officials - from 2,000 rubles or more, depending on the region.

The amount of the fine can be clarified on the traffic police website by entering your region into the search.

Who has the right to fine?

Traffic police officers who have recorded a violation have the right to issue a decision. The local administration also has the right to impose a fine if the car is damaged or causes material damage in the yard. Traffic police officers will impose a fine in accordance with the illegal parking specified in the Code of Administrative Offenses.

The local administration may impose penalties for parking in area improvement areas or playgrounds. Sometimes, employees may issue a warning instead of a monetary penalty if the driver has not previously been found damaging trees. But if the incident occurs again, punishment will follow immediately.

How to complain about a violator?

If a citizen finds a car on the lawn and wants justice, then the question arises - where to file a complaint against the offender. You can simply call the police and they will take appropriate measures. But for the reliability of the information, it is recommended to record the violation on a camera. You can also file a complaint with the local administration by writing a statement and attaching evidence of the violation.

There are situations when there is no violation, but a citizen wants to punish the driver due to personal hostility. It is worth remembering that slander and false testimony threaten liability for the applicant. To file a complaint, you must verify that the car owner has committed an offense.

Institutions for filing a complaint:

Local police department.
Commission for combating damage to landscaped areas.
In Moscow there is a hotline for receiving complaints of this kind by calling +7 (495) 205-58-62.
Local administration bodies and municipalities at the place where the offense was committed.

How to prove a violation?

To ensure that the appeal is not perceived as slander or false accusations, it is necessary to collect evidence of the violation. It will be better if the applicants are several eyewitnesses who confirm the fact of the violation.

To make a complaint you must:

indicate your passport details and the details of all applicants;
write a complaint correctly, including all the details of the violation;
provide all the evidence in the case - photographs of parking on the lawn, the presence of prohibitory signs, if there were attempts to reason with the offender, and he refused, this must also be indicated, damage to green spaces, if any.

The photographs must clearly show the car number and house number.

How to challenge a violation?

If the car owner is confident of his innocence, then it is permissible to challenge such a fine. Considering that the concept of a lawn is quite vague, in the absence of prohibitory signs near the parking lot, the driver can prove his innocence.

It is important to remember that on their own land no one has the right to fine a driver if he keeps the car on the grass. It is possible to appeal the fine through higher-ranking traffic police officials or through the court. But litigation significantly increases the time it takes to resolve a case and incurs additional financial costs.

To file a complaint, you should collect several documents:

Passport details.
Application to appeal a fine.
Proof of innocence - photographs, videos, presence of errors in the decision.
A petition to restore the deadline if the driver missed the filing deadline for a valid reason - illness, business trip.
A copy of the decision to pay a fine on both sides.

The application must be submitted within ten days from the date of receipt of the notification of the fine on the basis of Article 30.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses.

Fine for parking on the lawn

The spread of urban civilization makes every island of greenery in an urban environment especially valuable. Lawns are part of urban wildlife. This is a source of oxygen, beauty, and an opportunity to isolate yourself from polluted areas. Lawns are decorated with bushes, grasses, flowers, trees, and ornamental plants. They are fenced, but more often separated by borders. Municipal leadership strives to take all possible measures to ensure that such natural areas are preserved.

Parking a car on lawns is strictly prohibited. And yet, a car owner may unwittingly become a violator of this rule. So the driver or vehicle owner should understand the difference between lawns and areas with wild greenery.

What is a lawn according to traffic regulations?

The rules make only indirect mention of the lawn. This part of the street may separate the pedestrian sidewalk from the roadway. There are no clarifications regarding the imposition of fines for specific types of offenses related to driving onto the lawn. And yet, the driver who drives onto the lawn will be punished.

Local government regulations

It is local authorities who can make the driver who ruined the lawn repent. They issue relevant decrees, decrees, orders, in which the concept of “lawn” is clarified.

For example, the legislation regulating the behavior of drivers in Moscow states that the lawn is an element of the urban landscape. In such an area, trimmed grass grows, and other plants may be present.

Signs of a lawn

To distinguish a lawn from some other area, you should consider several of its characteristic features.

The first sign. The grass is well maintained and trimmed periodically.

Sign two. Usually a border and other elements are installed to isolate the green area. However, such restrictions are not clearly indicated in legislative acts, so they are not considered mandatory elements of the lawn.

Sign three. If there are other plants on the site, but no grass, then this area should not be called a lawn.

These are Moscow rules, and other regions are developing their own regulations regarding parking on lawns.

Important ! If a citizen parks in a lot without signs of a lawn and damages other greenery, he will be fined for damaging the greenery, not the lawn. The driver parking the car should be careful.

Permission to park in areas with greenery

According to general rules, you are required to pay a fine for parking on the lawn. However, there are situations when leaving a car on the grass within the city is acceptable.

In regional legislation, such an area, even if landscaped, is not considered a lawn.
There are types of grasses that can withstand both stress and damage. Western breeders usually suggest sowing lawns with these grasses.
There is a sign allowing parking here.
In exceptional cases, the traffic police inspector may allow parking on the lawn.

Check-in on the lawn in winter

In winter, when there is no grass, the lawn area is covered with snow, and the ground is frozen, they will not punish you for entering the lawn. Punishment can only follow in regions where such an offense is specifically designated in local legislation.

It needs to be taken into account. When snow falls, it is impossible to determine the exact location of the lawn so as not to drive into it. Only in the southern regions in winter does this topic remain relevant.

Where to file a complaint if drivers leave cars on lawns

It was not initially planned to install parking spaces inside the courtyards of multi-story buildings. But the cars need to be parked somewhere. Citizens living in these residential areas often express dissatisfaction with cars stopping on landscaped lawns. Such violations are often systematic and have to be dealt with. You should choose the most effective method.

First option. The tenant submits an application to the municipal (district) administration, indicating:

location of traffic violation, time of arrival on the lawn;
what exactly is the problem;
your contact details, information from your passport;
information about the identity of the offender (not always known).

Attached is a photo of the car with a record of the violation of the rules (the car is on the lawn). License plates must be visible.

Second option. The complaint is sent to the nearest local traffic police department. You can refer to the official website of the state. traffic police.

Third option. A parked car obstructs the free movement of people. It can also interfere with municipal service employees performing their duties. Then you should call a tow truck and the police.

When filing such complaints, you can expect that the car owner will not go unpunished.

Setting fines for parking a car on the lawn

The traffic rules do not have clearly defined conditions for determining the different degrees of responsibility for parking on the lawn, that is, there is no specific article. Therefore, fines are imposed on the basis of local legislation on liability for administrative offenses.

How to get fined in Moscow

Again, in the capital, such parking is regarded as deliberate damage to green spaces. The factor taken into account is that the offense was committed using technical means (a car).

There is a fine for individuals of 4 thousand rubles. up to 4.5 thousand rubles.

If such an offense is committed by an official, he will be fined 50 thousand rubles.

For a legal entity

If a legal entity was involved in damaging well-groomed greenery, then the amount of the fine increases to 300 thousand rubles.

Fines in other cities

For parking among green spaces, if this place is recognized as a lawn, the following fines are imposed:

for individuals - from 500 rubles. up to 2 thousand rubles;
for officials - from 1 thousand rubles. up to 5 thousand rubles;
for legal entities - from 5 thousand rubles. up to 20 thousand rubles.

In addition, an incorrectly parked car that creates various kinds of disturbances for others will be evacuated. Subsequently, the car owner will have to pay considerable additional amounts to return the car.
