Law on parking and parking in courtyards. RF Armed Forces: residents of an apartment building are not entitled to use the guest parking lot in the courtyard of the building for permanent parking of their cars. What is the difference between parking and parking

The other day we were bombarded with questions about the ban on parking in the courtyards of apartment buildings. The reason was the decision of the Supreme Court, in which it seemed that it was written. In the chat rooms of tenants, excitement began: how is it impossible to park the cars? What will happen now? And what to do with them? Who will check it and can they issue a fine?

Under the guise of management companies began to impose paid underground parking and scare them with fines.

We are not used to panic, so we read the documents. This is how things really stand with parking lots in the courtyards and what the Supreme Court said about it.

What's the story with parking lots?

One citizen is tired of seeing neighbors parked cars in his yard. They interfered with children, mothers with strollers and just residents who did not want to listen to the noise of the engines. The citizen decided to figure out on what basis the tenants generally put their cars in the yard. And he found sanitary rules.

Requirements for planning the area near the house

Allowed

Are prohibited

Playground

Place for games and relaxation

Pavilion, kiosk

Athletic facilities

Mini market

Outbuildings

Summer cafe

Repair of shoes and equipment

Guest parking

Permanent car park

It turns out that near the house without observing any requirements for the distance from the playground, windows and entrances, you can equip places for guest parking. Permanent parking is not allowed, but guest can be. That is, a conditional guest can park the car near the place where children play. Such a car can block the exit of a mother with a sidecar and warm up the engine right at the open window of an asthmatic. And this is for sanpin.

The citizen did not agree with this situation and went to the Supreme Court to challenge the sanitary rules for organizing parking in the yard. He wanted the sanpin's clauses on guest parking to be recognized as illegal and violating the rights of people to protect life, health and a favorable environment. In other words, he demanded that all parking in the courtyards be banned or moved away from home.

What did the Supreme Court say?

The Supreme Court twice considered the case and both times refused the fighter for freedom from cars in the yards. Here are the arguments of the panel of judges:

1. All people have the right to a healthy environment without harmful factors.
2. Guest parking near the house does not violate the law on health, environmental protection and counterterrorism. None of these laws explicitly prohibit parking near residential buildings.
3. On the contrary, the town planning code says that parking lots can be placed in residential areas.
4. But parking lots in the courtyard should be for guests. If they are used for permanent placement or storage of cars, then it is not the sanpin point that does not comply with the law, but car owners or homeowners' associations violate the sanpin.

The bottom line. There can definitely be a guest parking in the yard of the house. The citizen could not cancel these sanpin points, they are still valid. But you can't use this parking lot to park your cars there for a long time. It's like a violation.

So you can't park cars in the yard after all?

You can park cars in the yard. Provided that they are not left there permanently for storage, but parked for a while. And if there is a specially equipped place for cars. That is, there may be a perfectly legal place for parking near an apartment building - even close to the house or next to a playground. There are no distance requirements for guest parking.

If the management company tells you that now the car cannot be parked in the yard at all and that there will never be a parking lot here because the Supreme Court has forbidden it, this is not true.

Nobody canceled paragraphs 2.3 and 2.10 of the sanpin.

And if the tenants want to park their cars at all times?

Permanent parking can also be placed in the yard. The main thing is to keep the distance from the windows and the facade. It depends on the number of cars: for example, if the parking lot is designed for 50 cars, it must be equipped 15 meters from the walls of a house with windows. If there are no windows on the wall, 10 meters is enough. The larger the parking capacity, the further you need to place it from the house. These requirements are in table 7.1.1 of a separate sanpin 2.2.1 / 2.1.1.1200-03.

If the area of \u200b\u200bthe local area allows and the residents do not mind, it is quite possible to equip a permanent parking for cars in the yard. And it will be paid or free - this is how the owners and the management company agree.

If there is no place for permanent parking, then there may be a guest one. But how to understand who parked the car there and how much is not written in the law. Here you can be tortured trying to prove something.

What happens if there is a permanent parking near the house?

If the parking is organized according to the rules, taking into account the distance from the house, there will be nothing for this. It is legal. If one of the tenants does not agree, he will have to accept or change the apartment. The very fact that there are cars in the yard, subject to the standards, does not violate anyone's rights and any laws. Even if it seems to someone that the law has been violated - for example, to Rospotrebnadzor, to which neighbors complained - this still needs to be proved.

If the parking is too close to the house or it is unauthorized, this is a reason for a fine. First of all, they will come to the HOA or the management company. They can be fined 10-20 thousand rubles. But only if there is evidence that the parking lot was really equipped too close to the house, although it was possible to do this without violations. And that the Criminal Code did not try to forbid tenants to park their cars there. The fine for people who violate sanpin and constantly park their car on the playground or under the windows of neighbors is a maximum of 1,000 rubles. If the violation is recorded, they will prove it and so the court will decide.

But if one of the neighbors really wants to, it is real to get punishment. Although it does not always work out.

Here's an example from life. In the summer of 2018, a resident of one of the Moscow houses complained that he had parking in his yard. The regulatory authorities came and examined: well, there is a parking lot on the side of the house, but nothing is disturbed. And no one was anything for this, and the citizen was denied two instances.

In another story, the prosecutor tried to recognize the adjoining parking lot for 150 cars near the playground as a violation, but the court found that

Numerous enmity of neighbors on the basis of incorrect and illegal parking, completely changes the attitude of residents of the house towards each other. Therefore, these disputes often end up in court proceedings.

Dear Readers! The article talks about typical ways of solving legal issues, but each case is individual. If you want to know how to solve your problem - contact a consultant:

APPLICATIONS AND CALLS ARE ACCEPTED 24/7 and WITHOUT DAYS.

It is fast and IS FREE!

But if the residents of multi-storey buildings knew about the existing laws, then they would not have to endure the exhaust gases for a long time, listen to the loud sound of car alarms roaring in the early morning, the sound of the engine, and, in the end, waste their nerves on daily proceedings.

Who is responsible for parking in the yard

• prohibits the construction of organized or unauthorized parking at a distance of less than 10 meters from the housing estate, tab. 7.1.1;
• it is not allowed to park a truck within a radius of 50 m from the premises, except for commercial vehicles;
• not allowed more than 5 minutes to be near the house with the engine running;
  it is forbidden to enter the landscaped area around the house, including a playground, sidewalk in the yard, lawn, fencing. The offense is subject to a fine, the amount of which will depend on the region;
• you can not leave vehicles in the yard at the turn, it becomes the second row, hit the curb.

How to do it legally

Legal parking near your residential complex is quite possible, although its organization will require quite a long time and investment of funds. Financial investments will be quite moderate if more than one vehicle owner is involved in the investment.

And the availability of all the necessary permits will ensure a fast course of business. In accordance with the law, all owners of an apartment building own a part of the land that is adjacent to the house.

If there are shops, pharmacies or other organizations in the house, their owners should be invited to the meeting, because without their presence, it will be difficult to achieve a general compromise.

When organizing parking, you need to consider the following main points:

• an apartment building should be legalized, that is, privatized private property (apartment) and land surveying should be done;
• the parking lot must be commensurate with the residential complex (no more than 50 spaces), in which a place must be allocated for the disabled;
• the number of places for disabled people is decided by local government;
• after reaching a compromise between the neighbors, the preliminary parking plan drawn up by the design organization, the cadastral certificate and the application should be sent to the local department for improvement for consideration, as well as the traffic police;
• a statement is written in free form, which justifies the need to organize parking spaces;
• documents are submitted in one complete package. This step is an integral part of the process, because the higher authorities must comply with the projection regarding technical standards;
• the decision of the territorial administration can be either positive or negative. If approved, the final agreement of Rospotrebnadzor, together with engineering services, will be required;
• the question of the need to conclude a lease agreement for land may also be raised if there is no right to a part of the adjacent territory;
• do not forget that the parking lot near the house may be prohibited by the decision of the residents, therefore, the adjacent territory will be a free space.

Traffic requirements

Traffic rules are the fundamental law for the owner of any type of transport, and therefore must be complied with both on the road and in the courtyard.

Table 1. Fines for non-compliance with traffic rules.

Art. Administrative Code of the Russian Federation	Type of violation	Tax amount
	Failure to comply with the norms established by signs or markings of the carriageway, prohibiting the suspension or parking of vehicles.	1,500 rubles
	Other parking offenses	Penalty up to 5,000 rubles. + evacuation

	Excessive noise or toxicity of the machine	Warning or fine 500 rubles
h. 1-2	Failure to comply with the rules established for the movement of cars in residential areas	The punishment is 1500 rubles.

Where to complain

The blockage of personal transport passage and pedestrian areas is a real problem of the XXI century, therefore lawyers recommend creating written applications for car owners to the traffic police.

Residents of houses are entitled to a legal right to the sanitary inspection, fire service, environmental organization, as well as the district engineering service.

Sanitary standards

Regular conflicts arise due to the lack of at least a single position regarding parking rules in regulations and laws.

The leading document, which is guided by the regulation of the norms for the arrangement of the parking area in 2020, is the sanitary norms No. 2.2 1/2. 1/1. 1200-03.

According to this document, it follows:

1. The distance from the residential area to the parking zone is at least 10 meters.
2. Open parking for up to 50 cars is allowed, subject to the conditions of the Sanitary and Epidemiological Supervision Service to the elements of the improvement of the adjacent territories, taking into account the total area.

Table 2. Determination of the distance from the walls of structures to the parking lot.

Designated structures	Allowable distance in meters for a certain number of vehicles
Site capacity	10 and below	10 -50	50 -100	100-300	300 +

Preschool institutions, general education schools	15	25	25	50	+)
+) the allowable distance is determined by the State Sanitary Inspection Bodies; ++) for structures with III-IV type of fire resistance, the distance is supposed to be at least 12 meters.

Arrangement

The arrangement of parking lots presupposes the presence of all the necessary attributes for the safety of pedestrians and vehicle owners.

Horizontal marking includes competent application:

• parking markings;
• direction arrows;
• numbering;
• center lines;
• individual elements.

A professional approach and taking into account important factors, including small details, will make it possible to delimit the common area as efficiently as possible, while significantly increasing the number of parking spaces:

1. Installation of signs consists of the installation of traffic signs.

   

2. Installation of metal posts.

   

3. Flexible rubber posts.

   

   

Every year the traffic in megalopolises became more intensive, because the number of cars is steadily growing. When purchasing a new car, many do not even think about where they will park it, being sure that it is enough to leave it in the yard.

But this is an extremely important issue not only from the point of view of dissatisfied neighbors, but also from the point of view of the law. We often answer questions from car enthusiasts about how to legally park in the yard and what to avoid to avoid being punished fairly.

○ Parking rules in courtyards.

One should start by defining what this “courtyard territory” is. Immediately, we note that the Rules of the Road give an undesirable clear concept. At the same time, section 17, dedicated to traffic in residential areas, applies to courtyard areas, which is directly stated in paragraph 17.4:

• "The requirements of this section also apply to courtyard areas."

Therefore, it remains only to be content with the general legal definition of the courtyard territory, as a space bounded by buildings along the perimeter, inside which, as a rule, playgrounds, places for recreation, green spaces, local thoroughfares to houses, schools, kindergartens, etc. are located. But there is one a significant difference - it is not indicated by signs 5.21 (residential area) and 5.22 (end of the residential area), and therefore the driver needs to be careful and understand that otherwise all the rules of traffic and parking of vehicles in the residential area apply here.

So clause 17.2 of the SDA clearly says:

• "In the residential area, through traffic, training driving, parking with a running engine, as well as parking of trucks with a permissible maximum weight of more than 3.5 tons outside of specially designated and marked with signs and / or markings are prohibited."

That is, the main and most frequent violation on this point is truck parking and parking with a running engine. The latter is especially important in the cold period for those who like to “warm up the engine”, polluting the environment and interfering with the sleep of residents of adjacent houses.

It is worth paying attention to a few more important points regarding parking, which are relevant in courtyards. Clause 1.2 of the SDA defines a stop and a parking lot, which is very important because clause 17.2 speaks specifically about parking:

• "" Stop "- a deliberate stopping of the movement of a vehicle for a period of up to 5 minutes, as well as for more, if necessary for boarding or disembarking passengers or loading or unloading a vehicle.
  "Parking" - a deliberate stopping of the movement of a vehicle for more than 5 minutes for reasons not related to the embarkation or disembarkation of passengers or loading or unloading of the vehicle. "

The Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation has established additional parking bans, which also apply to courtyards. Usually the passages here are narrow, and therefore the parking lot manage to interfere not only with the passage of other cars, but also for ordinary pedestrians and mothers with strollers, let alone technical services. However, part 8 of Art. 20 .4 of the Administrative Code establishes a verticality for violation of fire safety rules. That is, if the abandoned car interferes with the passage of firefighters, one can prepare to pay a fine.

○ Fines for improper parking in the yard.

The Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation also does not define the courtyard territory, but establishes responsibility for violation of traffic rules in a residential area in Art. 12.28 Administrative Code of the Russian Federation

• "1. Violation of the rules established for the movement of vehicles in residential areas, with the exception of the case provided for in part 2 of this article, - shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of one thousand five hundred rubles... 2. The violation provided for in part 1 of this article, committed in the city of federal significance Moscow or St. Petersburg, - shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of three thousand rubles.»

That is, if your car is found by a traffic police inspector, parked in violation of the above rules, you can prepare to pay a fine of 1000 rubles, and in capital cities and all 3000... Exactly the same will be punished for parking on the sidewalk in the yard, because often because of parked cars it is simply impossible to transport a baby carriage.

But the matter may not be limited to this. It must be admitted that the traffic police patrol the courtyards not so often, especially in small towns, but if something happened, the dangerous situation would be more serious. For example, in the event of a fire and the inability of a company car to pass through to a fire, a negligent motorist can apply Part 8 of Art. 20.4 Administrative Code:

• "Violation of fire safety requirements on the provision of passages, driveways and entrances to buildings, structures and structures - entails the imposition of an administrative fine on citizens in the amount of from one thousand five hundred to two thousand rubles; for officials - from seven thousand to ten thousand rubles; for legal entities - from one hundred and twenty thousand to one hundred and fifty thousand rubles. "

But this is possible only if the fire inspection records the violation, it will easily impose a fine of up to 2,000 rubles.

The courtyards are often equipped with green spaces, including lawns. Traffic rules or Code of Administrative Offenses do not contain a definition of a lawn or a fine for parking on it. These issues are decided by local authorities, determining the amount of the fine for such violations. In most cities, this amount is fixed, so in St. Petersburg an ordinary car owner will pay from 3000 to 5000 fine. In other regions, such as Samara, they will be forced to pay for the damage to the plantation. In any case, you shouldn't do that.

Another aspect of the problem is through traffic through the residential area. Officially, it is prohibited by clause 17.2 of the SDA. But few of the drivers have ever tried to drive around the traffic jam through the nearest yard. The rules prohibit only through passage, and the movement itself at a speed of 20 km per hour is permitted by Section 10.2 of the SDA:

• "In settlements, vehicles are allowed to move at a speed not exceeding 60 km / h, and in residential areas and in courtyards, not more than 20 km / h."

So you just need to get rid of the concept of "through". It is enough to stop for a few seconds and behold, you are already a respectable driver who has not violated anything. But the stop, of course, must be done taking into account the described rules.

In the absence of the car owner in any of the above cases, the car can be evacuated, especially if it interferes with the passage or the work of cleaning or fire trucks, which means that you will have to pay for your stay at the impoundment.

In addition, violators are often sure that if they are not caught by a traffic police officer, then they will certainly go unpunished, but Part 4 of Art. 28.1 Administrative Code:

• “The reasons for initiating a case on an administrative offense are:
  4. Fixing an administrative offense in the field of road traffic or an administrative offense in the field of landscaping, provided for by the law of a constituent entity of the Russian Federation, committed with the use of a vehicle or by the owner or other owner of a land plot or other real estate object, operating in automatic mode with special technical means having functions photographing and filming, video recording, or by means of photographing and filming, video recording. "

Now there are even sites where you can upload photos and videos of evidence of the violation.

That is why the neighbors' threats to complain about the car owner, who warms up the car for half an hour in the morning, are quite real.

"Tell me who your friend is and I will tell you who you are."
The truth you can't argue with.
But knowledgeable people say that you can better recognize a person by the way he parks.

Where is parking allowed and where is it prohibited? Crib.

Parking rules

You can park	Can't park

Parking at the edge of the sidewalk with sign 6.4 and one of the special signs	On the carriageway if visibility is limited
At the very edge of the carriageway or on the side of the road if there are no prohibition signs	At the intersection of carriageways
In two rows at the edge of the carriageway if you have a two-wheeled vehicle	On tram tracks

	Outside settlements in those areas that are marked with sign 2.1

In general, parking issues are very popular in Russia, because sometimes driving a car is not much cheaper than parking it. But seriously, parking a car at first glance seems like a trifle, but everything is a little more complicated. Firstly, the parking of a vehicle is clearly regulated by the Rules of the Road. Secondly, different cities and regions may have their own parking nuances. And, thirdly, there are unspoken rules, not to comply with which means not to respect either yourself, or fellow motorists, or pedestrians, or law enforcement officers, or even that cat who is used to bask in the place under which the heating main is laid.

Alas, Moscow cannot boast of such a parking procedure

Photo masterok.livejournal.com

Remember a simple axiom - only a tank driver is not required to be able to park his vehicle. For everyone else, the traffic rules have parking rules.

Stopping or parking?

Obeying the fashion for Western terminology and the ubiquitous Anglicisms, we will not abandon the concept of "parking". But in our legislative framework, another term appears - "parking"... And if drivers have long figured out the difference between "inspection" and "inspection" of a vehicle, then they often have difficulties with the definition of "parking" and "stopping".

A stop is a pause in the course, a stop is a stop for 5 or more minutes.

Photo mashinapro.ru

So, a stop is, in simple terms, a cessation of movement lasting no more than 5 minutes.
However, the rules do not limit drivers to five minutes if this time is not enough for them to disembark / pick up passengers or load / unload. But if a vehicle costs more than 5 minutes, and this has nothing to do with passengers or cargo, then this is already a parking lot.

Parking rules for everyone

First, let's figure out why you should park correctly. Quite often, novice drivers and seasoned steering wheel drivers feel that it doesn't really matter where the car is parked. But, having correctly parked your vehicle, you, firstly, will reduce your chances of meeting and communicating with all of our beloved traffic police inspectors and such nuisances as a fine.

Someone parks as they want ...

Photo huffpost.com

Secondly, competent parking will protect your car from troubles, such as a traffic accident without movement or mechanical damage caused by especially disgruntled pedestrians who are defending their rights using radical methods.

And some - how can.

Photo drive2.ru

By the way, about the accident.

If your car was not parked according to the rules and became a participant in a traffic accident, then all the fault and administrative responsibility inevitably and automatically falls on you.

Where can I park?

The current Road Traffic Regulations say where you can park and where you can not. From clause 12.1, you can learn that parking can be arranged on the side of the road to the right of the road or at the edge of the roadway. If you still want to park on the left, then this can only be done on roads with one lane in each direction and without tram lines.

It is the violation of parking rules that is the reason for the difficulties with parking in Moscow

Photo auto.vesti.ru

But the union of a parked car and a sidewalk is discussed in section 12.2. If you travel by bicycle, moped, motorcycle and car, then you have every right to park your vehicle in places that are marked with a parking sign ...

... and one of the signs below (here's the answer to the frequently asked question - is it possible to park on the sidewalk).

In all other cases, you will have to park at your own peril and risk. And, of course, conscience.

Where you can't park

No matter how we treat prohibitory signs, ignoring them is often more expensive for us.
Parking is prohibited if the following sign looms on the horizon.

The "No parking" sign is valid from the place where the sign is installed to the nearest intersection behind it, and in settlements in the absence of an intersection - to the end of the settlement.

At the same time, variations of this sign can be observed on the streets of Russian cities.

No parking on odd days of the month

No parking on even days of the month

But there are also more general rules.
For example, under no circumstances will you be able to legally park your car on the sidewalk if it is a truck. In addition, parking is prohibited in places where stopping is not allowed, which is quite logical.

Also, it is prohibited to park a vehicle on the roadway outside the settlement, which is marked with the sign "Main road".

Do not forget that it is strictly forbidden to organize parking closer than 50 meters from railway crossings.

Interesting

The sign "Pedestrian path" prohibits the movement of cars, but nothing is said about parking on the path for pedestrians and cyclists. Yes, a fine of 2 thousand rubles. you will have to pay, because it is impossible to get into the forbidden territory without movement. However, according to the Code of Administrative Offenses, the traffic police have no right to evacuate your car to the penalty area from the pedestrian path. Many Muscovites, those who have more money, take advantage of this flaw in the Code and habitually park their four-wheeled "horses" on the tracks intended for "two-legged".

How much is illegal parking?

Municipal authorities are constantly increasing parking penalties where parking is prohibited. At the same time, there is a certain gradation of fines depending on the region or city. For example, in Moscow and St. Petersburg the penalties are higher than in other Russian cities.

Yard parking rules: it's good where we are not

It should be recognized that the rules for parking in courtyards and in adjoining territories have not yet been unambiguously defined at the legislative level. And it would be worth it, because, for example, Moscow courtyards more and more resemble a zone of high voltage that arises between residents. However, there is a set of general rules that any driver must follow.

It is strictly forbidden to park the car on the lawns. The regulation on "green zones" is not spelled out in the traffic rules, but such parking violates another set of rules - the rules for improving the city. In addition, you must not block the passage that impedes the movement of other vehicles and pedestrians. Sidewalks in the courtyards are also a taboo zone for car owners.

Sometimes in the courtyards there is a "parking lot"

Photo zyalt.livejournal.com

If we talk about some clear instructions, then parking a car is prohibited closer than 10 meters from the door, whether it is the door of a store or an entrance, and also no closer than 5 meters from garbage containers.

In London, a car owner can buy a parking right near the house or in the yard for £ 100 per year. For all other parking spaces, Londoners pay £ 4 per hour and can stay there for a maximum of four hours.

With regard to other prohibitions, a car with a running engine cannot be parked in yards. Remember - no more than 4 minutes 59 seconds. This rule is worth considering for motorists who warm up the engine before leaving during the winter months.

And, of course, trucks with a permissible maximum weight of more than 3.5 tons are completely discriminated against in the yard.

Parking rules in Moscow

The city can be considered the one that has reached the highest level of motorization if there are 300 to 400 cars per 1,000 inhabitants. In 2013 Moscow in the list of the most motorized cities took second place - 380 cars per “killer” of the population. Hence you get 127 hours a year, which a Moscow driver spends on fighting traffic jams.

Free parking is a luxury for Moscow

Photo auto.mail.ru

So that's it. As soon as the city reaches a high level of motorization, it automatically waives the "free parking" regulation. This is the answer to the question why parking in Moscow has become paid. We must not forget about the convenience of pedestrians, the priority of public transport and moving cars. Parked cars that simply take up public space are at the very bottom of the priority table. In other words, if you want to stand, pay. This is exactly what is said on the pages of the project, which is designed to cope with the problem of "chaotic parking" on the capital's streets.

Parking rules in the center of Moscow are simple to the point of banality - the car can be left wherever it is not prohibited by the rules or the corresponding road signs. If you do not follow this norm, then be sure to update the statistics of evacuees for incorrect parking of a car - about 1300 rubles per day.

You can pay for parking through the parking meter

Most shopping centers in Moscow provide free parking spaces, but there are some (they are located within the Third Transport Ring), where only the first hours of parking are free. There are also some little parking tricks: you can leave your car in the parking lot of the Moscow Hotel if you buy at least something in one of the many local boutiques.

Subtleties of the question

You under no circumstances have the right to trample the grass on the lawn with the tires of your car. Here, however, the amount of the administrative fine for this is different everywhere, because these fines are established by local governments.

If you parked your car, but at the same time only drove a little on a curbstone, then law enforcement officers will unequivocally regard this as a full-fledged parking on the sidewalk. For the convenience of one wheel - a fine and evacuation of the "steel horse" to the "penalty stable".

Imagine leaving your car on the sidewalk. According to current legislation, you can be fined two minimum wages for violating the rules of parking or stopping on the sidewalk, which resulted in the creation of obstacles to the movement of pedestrians. But the fact of creating obstacles still needs to be proved. And there is no fact, no corpus delicti. However, obedience to the law should be at the forefront of all such situations.

Today traffic cops use devices called "Parkon", which independently identify and record violations of parking rules. After that, drivers receive “letters of happiness”. So do not rely on chance and beware of the newfangled gadgets that law enforcement officers are armed with.

If you want to know what kind of person - look how he parks the car!

In order not to lose money (fines, payment for evacuation and storage at the parking lot), time and nerve cells, try to get along with this capricious lady, whose name is "Parking". Remember the patience of the legendary Noah, who searched for parking on his ark full of passengers until he found it near the majestic Ararat. Respect the law, pedestrians, and your fellow drivers, and you'll always find a parking spot in the sun.

Parking near the house is a topic that can be discussed endlessly. It is good when there is a place in the underground parking, in the parking lot not far from the house or near the cottage. In this case, no problem exists.

This is all good, of course, but for most drivers parking in the courtyard of a house is sometimes a task with many unknowns, especially when it comes to residential areas in large cities with houses without parking or in areas of old buildings, for example, in the center of Moscow or St. -Petersburg. In a word, about places where there is a shortage of free space, and the parking itself turns into a real puzzle similar to "Tetris".

To be fair, it should be noted that State Duma deputies are discussing the adoption of a new law on parking in the courtyard of an apartment building, which would streamline the relevant issues. They say that it will be possible to privatize parking spaces, organize small private parking lots, that parking a car in the courtyard of the house will become paid. However, many experts doubt that all the discussed measures will fundamentally solve the existing problem ...

What are the rules for parking in courtyards of residential buildings in 2018?

The main legislative acts regulating this area are Sanitary Norms and Rules - SanPin and Traffic Rules - SDA.

In principle, all parking rules in the courtyards of residential buildings are quite logical. If they are strictly observed, it will be possible to avoid problems with residents of the lower floors and fines.

Parking rules in the yard

You can often see a picture when, with a lack of free space on the sidewalk and the absence of a lawn fence, cars take a fancy to it. In this case, you need to be prepared for a fine, which will be written by a traffic police officer upon a call from neighbors who are "not indifferent" to nature.

Some motorists believe that this legal requirement does not apply to the winter period, when snow falls and the border of green spaces becomes invisible. They are partly right, but we must understand that in addition to the traffic police, there are also sanitary services that can punish parking near the windows.

2. Do not leave the car near garbage containers

It is quite a logical rule, because if a car is parked near garbage cans, it will greatly complicate the work of utilities. The minimum distance to containers must be at least five meters. Moreover, the car must stand in such a way as not to obstruct the access of the garbage trucks. In addition, parking near garbage cans always outrages the residents of the house, who are not shy about influencing a careless driver.

In any case, parking near garbage containers will cost the driver from two to five thousand rubles.

Rules regulate time continuously a running engine when the car is stopped in the yard - no more than five minutes. This means that you can only stop to pick up or drop off passengers and to load or unload cargo. This rule is especially true in winter, when low air temperature forces motorists to warm up the engine in the morning.

As a result, the courtyard is filled with the noise of running engines and clubs of exhaust gases, which naturally causes discontent among residents and calls to the traffic police with complaints. For this violation, a fine of 3 thousand rubles is provided for large cities and 1.5 thousand for other settlements.

Traffic rules also prohibit parking in courtyards of residential buildings and in other places on sidewalks. However, with the proviso that if the distance for the passage of pedestrians is less than two meters. This is also a logical rule, because pedestrians also need space.

Violation of this rule entails a fine of 2 thousand rubles and maybe even an evacuation, for which the car owner will also have to pay.

5. Obstruction of the passage

One of the most common and unpleasant violations of parking rules in the courtyard of an apartment building is blocking the passage, which in turn turns into a colossal problem, both for other drivers and for special vehicles: ambulances, firefighters, rescuers, gas service, water utility and others.

It is difficult to name the exact amount of the fine for this violation. It all depends on the current situation and is regulated by the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

In conditions of fierce competition for vacant places, especially "smart" drivers equip personal parking spaces near their houses, and often right next to the entrance to their entrance. Various auxiliary materials are used, but most often civilization comes to their aid in the form of special parking fences with locks.

However, when arranging your own parking space, you need to understand that this is a violation, for which a fine of 5 thousand rubles is provided.

The rules provide for the presence of parking pockets for ten cars no closer than ten meters from the house, so if you park your car close to the wall or right under the windows, get ready for a fine. Drivers of trucks and other trucks will also be fined. For vehicles over 3.5 tons, there are parking lots.
