What cars are given to disabled people each year? Is it possible for a disabled person to receive a car from the state for free? Legal background of innovations

Nowadays they issue disabled people's personal badges, on which everything is indicated: full name, group, and for which it is valid. So, who wouldn't put on a disabled person's badge.

Hello. And what kind of disabled people of groups 1 and 2 and disabled children (carrying them) can stick the “Disabled” sign on their glass and enjoy benefits? After all, there are people with disabilities not only due to the musculoskeletal system, but also various others (general disease, neurology, gastrointestinal tract, cancer, psychiatry, etc., etc.).

Sergey 15.02.2017 15:12
I don’t have a right leg above the knee, I need prosthetics, they gave me group 3 indefinitely. Did I break my stump? Is walking on crutches without a prosthesis a THIRD THING?

Vladimir 28.10.2016 17:51
I still have a question. What to do with a group 3 disabled person who has a free parking permit and the sign cannot be used. They can tow your car and then prove that you are disabled.

Hello! Traffic police officers, not at a stationary checkpoint, stopped me for a disabled sign on my car. U
I have a 3rd group disability and have a free parking permit from
Moscow government. But they said that with a sign a disabled person can move
on transport only disabled people of the 1st and 2nd groups. We drew up a protocol and sent it
to court, notice The judge issued a fine of 5,000 rubles. They are probably proud that they caught a dangerous criminal. How much will it cost to draw up legally competent documents for filing an appeal and complaint?

It is necessary to completely exclude from the traffic rules the concept of “disabled people of groups 1 and 2”, and write down “drivers with disabilities and drivers transporting such passengers”

Yuy Vasilievich. 13.02.2016 22:00
On December 14, 2015, I drove Hummer 3 to the construction market, where I ordered plastic panels for the ceiling and walls online. I drove with the right turn signal on, in the far right lane - 500-600 meters, reached the market gate, I stopped to look in the mirror and make sure that I was turning into the gate and did not have time to look when there was a blow to the right wing and the stem of the Hyundai Porter at the right front door... As a result, the traffic police officers brazenly and ignorantly accused me... Of course I will try put them on their backs... Today I was in the city of Bronitsy, where these scumbag inspectors are from, wrote a statement to the head of the sixth battalion about the illiteracy and stupidity of his insolent inspectors, for which he will also be held responsible... HOWEVER, I have the photographs - in parallel worn-out two cars, With my rear right wheel punctured, demolished over the arch reinforcement and the left rear wheel - standing on the center line, it was not possible to prove *** and with the rank of major that they are illiterate parasites... The resolution was taken by himself... - indicated that the accident was caused by my changing lane...

Is a disabled person entitled to a car with benefits? And what is the procedure for obtaining it?

In recent years, legislative measures for social support of disabled people, including disabled people of the Great Patriotic War, have undergone significant changes. As part of providing disabled people with preferential cars, the state adopted many decrees and laws, which were subsequently repealed by regulations.

HOW IT HAPPENED AND WHEN IT WAS CANCELED:
Benefits in the field of transport for people with disabilities with appropriate medical indications (conclusion from the ITU Bureau), provided until 2005 in the form:

Providing them with special motor vehicles;
- reimbursement of expenses for major repairs of special vehicles (except cars);
- obtaining special wheelchairs;
- compensation for fuel;
- repair and maintenance of special vehicles.

These guarantees were enshrined in the following documents:
- Resolution of the Council of Ministers of the USSR of April 4, 1983 “On the provision of vehicles to disabled workers, employees and collective farmers, as well as disabled people from childhood”;
- Resolution of the Council of Ministers - Government of the Russian Federation of February 22, 1993 No. 156 “On amending and invalidating certain decisions of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR on the provision of disabled people with special vehicles”;
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of May 28, 1992 No. 356 “On measures for the social protection of disabled people who need special vehicles (as amended on June 26, 1995).

Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated March 14, 1995 No. 244 "On changing the brand of a car intended to be issued to disabled people free of charge" it was decided to provide disabled people who, in accordance with current legislation, have the right to receive a free car, instead of a Zaporozhets car(due to discontinuation of its release) cars of the Oka and Tavria brands, issued for a period of seven years. Regional executive authorities received the right to provide disabled people with cars of other brands based on their financial capabilities, the state of road transport communications, and the availability of a car maintenance network.

The Zaporozhets or Oka cars were issued for seven years without the right to major repairs. After this time the car had to be replaced. Major repairs of a motorized stroller were carried out once every five years at the actual cost, but not more than 50% of the cost of the motorized stroller at the time of repair, for disabled people of general illness and other reasons, as well as for disabled children from childhood, under the conditions determined by Government Decree of the Russian Federation No. 156 of February 22, 1993." On amendments and invalidation of certain decisions of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR on the provision of disabled people with special vehicles."

Cars"Tavria" or "Oka" with manual control and strollers were provided free of charge only disabled people from the Second World War who need them, disabled people equivalent to them, as well as other disabled military personnel if there are medical indications.

Cars (motorized strollers) previously received by disabled people free of charge were subject to return to social security authorities, but those purchased for a fee (including at a discount to their cost) were not subject to return to social security authorities. After the death of a disabled person, the free car (motorized stroller) he received was returned to the social protection authorities. A car (motorized stroller) purchased by a disabled person for a fee (including at a discount to its cost) was inherited in the manner prescribed by law.

The instructions on the procedure for issuing, replacing and selling cars with manual control (lost force only in 2008) determined that a disabled person is issued a car with manual control.

Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated May 28, 1992 No. 356 “On measures for the social protection of disabled people who need special vehicles,” which guaranteed the provision of all disabled people with special vehicles, provided that they have medical indications for the provision of special vehicles and do not have contraindications that could prevent admission to managing them, became invalid from 02/03/2008 on the basis of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 01/19/2008 No. 15 “On the recognition as invalid of certain acts of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR and the Government of the Russian Federation on issues related to ensuring disabled people with vehicles", as well as other fundamental regulations on the procedure for providing disabled people with vehicles.

Since January 1, 2005 in the Russian Federation a transition has been made to new legal regulation of providing social support to certain categories of the population, including the provision of vehicles. Federal Law No. 122-FZ of August 22, 2004, which came into force on January 1, 2005, canceled:
- Providing disabled people with free vehicles as a means of rehabilitation;
- Payment of monetary compensation instead of a car;
- Replacement of cars for those who received them earlier;
- Cash compensation for gasoline, spare parts, repairs, and maintenance of vehicles issued free of charge.
That is, all previously existing laws regarding the provision of disabled people with vehicles have lost force.

In order to implement the norms of Federal Law No. 122-FZ regarding the provision of certain categories of citizens with vehicles, the Government of the Russian Federation adopted Resolution No. 561 of September 6, 2007 “On the provision of vehicles at the expense of the federal budget to disabled people diagnosed before January 1, 2005 by social protection authorities.” population of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation to be registered for the provision of vehicles.”

On May 6, 2009, on the eve of the celebration of Victory Day, as well as in order to fulfill the ongoing obligations of the state to disabled people living on the territory of the Russian Federation, who on January 1, 2005 were registered (queued) with the social protection authorities of the population of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation to provide transport funds free of charge or on preferential terms in accordance with medical indications, Decree of the President of the Russian Federation N 685 “On some measures of social support for people with disabilities” was issued. In accordance with this Decree, the Government of the Russian Federation adopted Resolution No. 670 of September 12, 2008 “On the procedure for providing passenger cars and paying one-time monetary compensation from the federal budget to disabled people who, as of January 1, 2005, were registered with social protection authorities the population of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation to provide vehicles free of charge or on preferential terms in accordance with medical indications."
According to the Minister of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation, who at that time was Tatyana Golikova, it was planned to additionally allocate more than 4 billion rubles from the federal budget for these purposes.
According to the Russian Ministry of Health and Social Development, the majority of disabled people of the Great Patriotic War, who, by the way, were almost all over 80 years old at that time, preferred to receive monetary compensation instead of a car. This document provided for the following procedure for the provision of passenger cars and payment of compensation: Passenger cars were provided:
- in 2008 - disabled people of the Great Patriotic War, disabled combatants, participants of the Great Patriotic War from among persons who became disabled due to a general illness, work injury or other reasons, disabled people from among former minor prisoners of concentration camps, ghettos and other places of forced detention created the fascists and their allies during the Second World War;
- in 2009 - to citizens who became disabled due to exposure to radiation, as well as disabled people from among the rehabilitated persons. Compensation was paid:
- in 2008 - disabled people of the Great Patriotic War, disabled combatants, participants of the Great Patriotic War from among those who became disabled due to a general illness, work injury or other reasons, disabled people from among former minor prisoners of concentration camps, ghettos and other places of forced detention created by the fascists and their allies during the Second World War, who expressed a desire to receive compensation in exchange for the provision of a passenger car;
- in 2009 - to citizens who became disabled due to exposure to radiation, and disabled people from among the rehabilitated persons who expressed a desire to receive compensation in exchange for the provision of a car, as well as disabled people due to a general illness, work injury or other reasons, disabled people from childhood and disabled children. To receive a car, a disabled person (a person representing his interests) had to submit a corresponding application and an identity document to the social protection authority of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation at his place of residence; In order to receive compensation, a disabled person (a person representing his interests) had to submit to the social protection authority of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation at his place of residence a corresponding application (indicating the postal address of the disabled person or the details of the account opened by him in a credit organization) and an identification document. The decision to provide a car or to assign this compensation and its payment to disabled people was made by the social protection authorities of the population of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. In their activities, social protection bodies are guided by the legislation of the Russian Federation, regulatory legal acts of the Government of the Russian Federation and federal executive authorities registered in the prescribed manner, as well as decisions of judicial authorities issued to them. Based on the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of July 12, 2010 N 508 “On the transfer of ownership of passenger cars to disabled people,” passenger cars are provided to disabled people as ownership. The previous law on replacing vehicles with a new one after 7 years of operation has been cancelled.
According to this resolution No. 508, the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation, together with the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, by order dated December 13, 2010 No.
1101n/849 approved the procedure for registering ownership of cars previously issued to disabled people at the expense of the federal budget. The amount of compensation was 100 thousand rubles.
Disabled people who have received compensation are removed from the register by the social protection authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in order to be provided with vehicles. Government Decree No. 670 of September 12, 2008 contains a provision on the invalidation of the previously valid Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of September 6, 2007 N 561 “On the provision of vehicles at the expense of the federal budget for disabled people provided by authorities before January 1, 2005.” social protection of the population of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation for registration for the provision of vehicles." The legal norms that provided for the provision of disabled people with vehicles if they had appropriate medical indications, as well as free replacement of the vehicle, also became invalid, in
Therefore, unfortunately, there are no legal grounds for free replacement of a vehicle at the end of its service life. This law applies to disabled people of all groups and categories. Those who were not in line to receive a car before January 1, 2005 will not be able to receive one. Disabled persons due to general illness, work injury, disabled persons since childhood and disabled children are entitled to only monetary compensation - 100 thousand rubles. Today it is believed that the queue of disabled people to receive free motor transport that existed on January 1, 2005 has been exhausted. From the report of the Accounts Chamber of the Russian Federation No. 11 (155) of 2010 “On the results of the control measure “Checking the use of federal budget funds allocated for the provision of passenger cars to disabled people and for the payment of the corresponding one-time monetary compensation in 2008-2009”:
The total number of certain categories of citizens (taking into account court decisions) who were to be provided with vehicles or paid a one-time monetary compensation in the period under review amounted to 91,491 people, of which 62,215 people (68.0%) were recipients of a one-time monetary compensation.
The total amount of funds allocated from the federal budget to fulfill the state's expenditure obligations to preferential categories of citizens to provide them with vehicles and pay one-time monetary compensation in 2008-2009 amounted to 11,149,993.4 thousand rubles:
- for the purchase of vehicles - 4,834,326.7 thousand rubles;
- for payment of one-time compensation - 6,315,666.7 thousand rubles, including:
- in 2008 - 6,302,393.4 thousand rubles (for the purchase of vehicles - 4,734,850.0 thousand rubles, for the payment of one-time compensation - 1,567,543.4 thousand rubles);
- in 2009 - 4,847,600.0 thousand rubles (for the purchase of vehicles - 99,476.7 thousand rubles, for the payment of one-time compensation - 4,748,123.3 thousand rubles). In the period under review, federal budget expenses for providing disabled people with cars and for paying the corresponding one-time monetary compensation amounted to 11,046,659.2 thousand rubles, or 99.1% of approved budget allocations, including: for the purchase of vehicles - 4,825,751 .7 thousand rubles, or 99.8% of approved budget assignments; for the payment of one-time monetary compensation - 6,220,907.5 thousand rubles, or 98.5% of the approved budget assignments. The same report contains the following conclusion:
Providing motor transport for disabled people of the Great Patriotic War, disabled combatants, participants of the Great Patriotic War from among those who became disabled due to a general illness, work injury or other reasons, disabled people from among former minor prisoners of concentration camps, ghettos and other places of forced detention created by the Nazis and their allies during World War II, completed in 2008. The provision of motor transport to other categories of disabled people was carried out in 2009. In 2008-2009, the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia transferred 6,220,907.5 thousand rubles to the social protection authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation (including payment for banking services and postal services, as well as returns of unused balances of federal budget funds by the constituent entities of the Russian Federation for 923 compensation recipients) to pay one-time monetary compensation to 61,292 disabled people, including: in 2008 - 15,443 citizens for 1,567,464.5 thousand rubles; in 2009 - 45,849 citizens for 4,653,443.0 thousand rubles. In 2008-2009, 29,276 cars were provided to disabled people for a total amount of 4,825,751.7 thousand rubles. In 2008, federal budget expenses for providing disabled people with cars and for paying the corresponding one-time monetary compensation amounted to 6,297,101.4 thousand rubles, or 99.9% of approved budget allocations, including: for the purchase of vehicles - 4,729,636 .9 thousand rubles, or 99.9% of approved budget assignments; for the payment of one-time monetary compensation - 1,567,464.5 thousand rubles, or 99.9% of the approved budget assignments.
In 2009, these expenses amounted to 4,749,557.8 thousand rubles, or 97.9% of approved budget assignments, including: for the purchase of vehicles - 96,114.8 thousand rubles, or 96.6% of approved
budget assignments; for the payment of one-time monetary compensation - 4,653,443.0 thousand rubles, or 98.0% of the approved budget assignments. It follows from the report that the obligations to issue a passenger car or a one-time monetary compensation in the amount of 100 thousand rubles in replacement of the car in accordance with the Decree by the state in 2008-2009 were fulfilled. Currently, the provision of disabled people with technical means of rehabilitation is carried out in accordance with the Federal Law of November 24, 1995 No. 181-FZ “On the social protection of disabled people in the Russian Federation”. Article 11.1. Chapter 3 of this law determines the list of technical means of rehabilitation of disabled people. Special vehicles are not included in this list. Conclusion: to date, provision of disabled people with vehicles is not provided for by law.

The state provided citizens with disabilities with right receive a car in accordance with Government Decree No. 244 of March 14, 1995. To do this you had to stand in line until 2005 in social protection authorities.

Previously cars for disabled people brands "Oka" and "Tavria" were provided for a period seven years. At the same time, the right to carry out major repairs was not provided. After the end of this period the car was due to be replaced. Regional authorities could offer other brands, in accordance with their financial capabilities and the state of road communications.

Issuance of cars to disabled people was produced in 2008 and 2009. This implied the transfer of ownership of the vehicle. Instead of a vehicle, a disabled person could design monetary compensation. Its size was 100 thousand rubles.

Motorcycles and cars with manual control could also be received from combat operations, former minor prisoners of concentration camps who received disabilities, rehabilitated citizens, disabled people from childhood, persons injured as a result of radiation. The main condition here is the presence of evidence and the need for a car as a means of rehabilitation.

Transport tax in 2019

If the car is equipped for the needs of a disabled person or was purchased with funds issued by the social security service, then this vehicle released from paying tax. Information that the car has been converted is entered into registration certificate Only in this case can you receive a tax benefit.

Benefits for transport tax disabled people are also fixed at the level. Depending on the subject of the Russian Federation, this category of citizens is completely exempt from this tax, pays only part of it, or pays the necessary funds in full.

Amount of benefit depends on the disability group and the power of the car that is owned (most often up to 100-150 hp).

To find out about the availability of benefits, you should contact your regional laws, where its value and rules for provision are indicated.

To obtain benefits for disabled people, a special order. It involves submitting an application to the tax service, which will recalculate. You must also provide a document confirming your disability and assigned group.

Social taxi allows a disabled person to use the services of a vehicle for preferential basis. Transportation is possible to certain destinations within the city:

  • train stations, airports;
  • dachas, sanatoriums;
  • social, pension, insurance services, governing bodies;

Social transport contains all the necessary equipment, including lifting and securing devices. Payment is made according to the cost of one hour of use ( in Moscow, for example, the cost is 210 rubles/hour)

The social taxi service appeared in 2008 in Moscow with the aim of social support for people with disabilities. Payment for taxis is made with a special card or coupons, which are purchased in advance. Today the service is available in many regions.

The most popular questions and answers regarding a car for a disabled person

Question: I am a doctor and I often have to visit hospitals; I don’t have a car. I heard that they are planning to issue cars for disabled people 2017, is this true?

Answer: This initiative was launched in the fall of 2016, however solution on the introduction of such a measure was not accepted. The State Duma has received a bill according to which disabled people can be provided with means of transportation at the expense of budget funds. In addition to the car, the bill proposed providing disabled people with technical means for converting cars. But most likely in 2017 Disabled people should not count on cars.

In February 2016, Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 23 of January 21, 2016 “On Amendments to the Traffic Rules of the Russian Federation” was officially published and came into force. This document radically changed the parking procedure for disabled people and persons transporting disabled people. From now on, they must have on their vehicle not only a special sign, but also a document confirming their disability.

As it was before

Until recently, there were certain omissions in regulatory documents that allowed unscrupulous drivers to use benefits that were not intended for them. The traffic rules, in particular, stated that if there is a sign 8.17, the effect of sign 6.4 “Parking (parking space)” applies only to motorized wheelchairs and cars with the identification sign “Disabled” installed. In other words, by installing such a sign, the driver could park in places intended for disabled people. Regardless of whether the driver is disabled or not!

Without the “Disabled Person” sign, the right to preferential parking did not arise, although such a sign was not mandatory for traffic. In the “Basic provisions for the admission of vehicles...” it was said that, at the request of the driver, the identification sign “Disabled” can be installed on the vehicle “in the form of a yellow square with a side of 150 mm and an image of the symbol of the road sign 8.17 in black - in front and behind motor vehicles vehicles driven by disabled people of groups I and II, transporting such disabled people or disabled children.”

There is no mention in this text that the installation of a “Disabled Person” sign is only permitted for disabled drivers. This sign could be installed on any car in which “disabled people are transported” - systematically or occasionally. And there was not a word about a disability certificate.

At the same time, anyone who stopped in a parking lot intended for the disabled could be punished by a traffic police inspector, regardless of whether the driver had a certificate of disability or not. Although here is a paradox: according to the law, the inspector did not even have the right to demand this certificate from the driver.

The list of required documents that the driver must have with him (Section 2.1.1 of the Traffic Regulations) did not include such a certificate. Until 2011, the fine for parking in a disabled person’s space was only 200 rubles. It is clear that such an amount could not stop the scammers, so the list of documents was expanded to include a certificate of disability, and the administrative penalty was increased significantly.

New parking rules for disabled people

So, now, according to clause 2.1 of the traffic rules, the driver of a motor vehicle is obliged to carry with him and, at the request of police officers, hand over to them for verification a document confirming the fact of disability, in the case of driving a vehicle on which the identification sign “Disabled” is installed.

That is, you can take advantage of additional “benefits” when parking a car and driving under signs 3.2 “Movement prohibited” and 3.3 “Motor vehicle traffic is prohibited” from February 2016 only if the “Disabled” identification sign is installed on the car.

If the car is used by several drivers, and not all of them are disabled, you need to purchase a quick-release identification badge, for example, on suction cups. And do not forget that in accordance with the traffic rules, benefits apply only to disabled people of groups I and II, as well as to any group when transporting disabled children.

Of course, a physically healthy but dishonest driver can still easily purchase a “Disabled” sign and install it on his car. But he will no longer be able to calmly stop in disabled parking lots. At least in theory. The traffic police inspector has the right to demand that the driver present a certificate of disability, not necessarily his own. If there is one, then the driver is not issued a fine.

What about in practice?

True, questions have arisen, the answers to which can only be given by law enforcement practice. If a disabled person is actually being transported by car, can the driver leave the car in the parking lot marked with sign 6.4 with sign 8.17. It looks like there are options here. After all, even if the driver rightfully occupies a parking space for the disabled, he now must always have an identification card or medical certificate with him, since the “Disabled Person” warning sign pasted on the glass is not proof of the right to park.

They brought, say, a disabled person to a clinic, where he may have to show the doctors his ID or certificate. If the driver remains in the car, then he does not have a document confirming the right to park. Therefore, it is better to leave the car and return to the wheel only with a disabled person. What if a disabled person does not need a certificate, for example, in a shopping center? Does he have the right to hand over the document to the driver? And won’t the inspector have any doubts that the car is actually carrying a disabled person, and not just his papers?

This is perhaps an almost insoluble problem. The driver brought the disabled person to the station, parked in the parking lot for the disabled and went to accompany him to help him board the train. Upon his return, the inspector asks him to present his documents, but the disabled person has already left by train. If a “Disabled Person” sign is installed on the car, the driver faces punishment, since he does not have documents confirming his disability. And if the sign is removed, the car can be towed. Therefore, you will have to take care of a second accompanying person or, after disembarking the disabled person, remove the sign and move the car to a general parking lot.

Many people ask whether in such a situation it is possible to have a notarized copy of disability documents with them. But the lawyers just shake their heads sadly. Unfortunately, according to traffic rules, police officers need to submit for verification “a document confirming the fact of the establishment of disability,” and not a copy of it. After all, many copies, even notarized ones, can be made, but a disabled person can only be transported in one car.

Thus, we have to state:

The driver can hang up the “Disabled Person” sign and enjoy benefits only if the disabled person is nearby and agrees to give the driver a document confirming the disability.

People with disabilities, but without obvious signs of disability, must keep in mind that they will now be asked by traffic police inspectors to confirm their status. If you don’t have any documents with you, then after imposing an administrative penalty, it is pointless to prove your special rights in court. To have the right to park, you must have the certificate with you.

It is also unclear why sign 6.4, together with plate 8.17, applies only to motorized strollers and cars. If the driver is a disabled person of groups I and II or transports disabled people on a motorcycle or, say, an ATV, then he has no right to enjoy privileges.

What is the penalty for a fake certificate?

What to do with those who purchased fake certificates or certificates of disability? Such “fake” pieces of paper can still be bought in the underground passage or at the station. Most likely, the inspector will not “punch” your documents through the database. But if he has doubts and wants to check the authenticity of the submitted certificates, then the driver faces not only an administrative fine.

The fine itself, not for lack of documents, but for illegally installing a “Disabled” sign and for driving a vehicle with such a sign, amounts to 5,000 rubles for citizens. But a more serious punishment for the use of knowingly forged documents is provided for by the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - a large fine or even arrest for up to six months.

Frequent cases in private parking lots

Unfortunately, real disabled people also have problems. Thus, in non-state parking lots, spaces for disabled people are provided for by the law “On the social protection of disabled people in the Russian Federation.” The capital also has Moscow Law No. 3 of January 17, 2001 “On ensuring unimpeded access for people with disabilities to social, transport and engineering infrastructure facilities of the city of Moscow” (as amended on November 21, 2007).

It says, in particular: “In parking lots and in places where vehicles are parked, regardless of the form of ownership of the parking lots, up to 10 percent of the spaces (but not less than one space) most convenient for entry and exit should be allocated for parking special vehicles disabled people. Parking areas are equipped with special signs. Disabled people, as well as persons transporting them, in cases where disabled people have contraindications for driving vehicles, use parking spaces for special vehicles free of charge.”

However, there are complaints that when entering a shopping center, the driver is asked to take a parking card, and when leaving, it turns out that the electronic machine cannot recognize disability documents, and the security guards do not even know that disabled people have the right to free parking...

Features of metropolitan life

There are peculiarities when using parking spaces intended for parking vehicles of disabled people in paid parking zones, which are organized in Moscow and St. Petersburg. In Moscow, for example, you additionally need to obtain a preferential parking permit for a disabled person (see Help). It is issued at the MFC (multifunctional centers) or on the website of the Moscow Public Services portal. In this case, the data of the disabled person’s car is entered into the parking register.

Payment for parking in Moscow is controlled by mobile photo and video recording systems that run along city parking lots. They can check online whether the data about a car parked in a space for disabled people is entered into the Parking Register as a car for a disabled person. If not, a fine will be generated automatically.

Parking permits for disabled people give the right to free 24-hour parking in places marked with sign 8.17 “Disabled”, as well as with markings 1.24.3. In all other parking spaces, parking is provided on a general basis (for a fee).

Our information

Parking permits for a disabled person can be issued for a car:

  • owned by a disabled person/legal representative of a disabled child;
  • previously issued in accordance with medical indications free of charge for the free use of social protection authorities;
  • owned by other persons transporting disabled people, with the exception of vehicles used to provide paid services for the transportation of passengers, if the disabled person has contraindications to driving.

To obtain a Parking Permit you must submit:

  • statement;
  • passport (birth certificate for disabled children under 14 years of age);
  • insurance certificate of compulsory pension insurance of the applicant (SNILS).

If the place of residence of a disabled person is not on the territory of the city of Moscow and if he has not previously applied to the Department of Social Protection of the Population of the City of Moscow, then he must present a document certifying the right of the disabled person to a benefit (a certificate from a medical and social examination establishing disability or an extract from certificate of examination of a citizen recognized as disabled).

People with disabilities have the right to count on comprehensive assistance from the state. The task of every highly developed society is to make people with disabilities feel comfortable and can easily socialize, participate in public life, and work. One of the forms of government support for such citizens is the provision of a special car for moving around the city. A car for disabled people is not just a means of transportation. This is an opportunity not to experience restrictions and be the same as everyone else. Let's consider how a similar social measure to protect people with disabilities operates in Russia.

Legislative regulation of the issue

The main legislative act on the basis of which free cars are issued for disabled people is. In addition, people with disabilities are entitled to the following benefits:

  • acquisition of special means of transportation from the budget of the Social Insurance Fund;
  • carrying out complex technical repairs of the provided vehicle;
  • compensation for expenses for the purchase of gasoline or other fuels and lubricants provided for by the vehicle operating rules;
  • Cars for disabled people undergo maintenance and minor repairs free of charge.

In 2004, this decree was repealed. Obtaining a car with manual control for disabled people became available only to those citizens who joined the queue before 2005 inclusive. For other individuals with 1 or 2 disability groups of the corresponding profile (wheelchair users), the benefit is monetized.

Conditions for people with disabilities to receive a free/preferential car from the state in 2019

In 2019, cars for disabled people are available only to those who joined the waiting list before 2005. To exercise your right to receive special transport for a disabled person, a citizen needs to have certain medical certificates and papers in hand:

  • confirming the presence of disability of the relevant group;
  • the conclusion of a medical and social examination determining the need to provide a wheelchair user or a patient with a prosthetic and orthopedic profile with a budget car;
  • medical examination confirming the ability to drive a special vehicle (driver’s certificate).

Also, a citizen with a certain disability group or his legal representative (guardian, parent, etc.) must have a valid driver’s license.

In addition, an individual applying for a passenger car or other manually operated vehicle must belong to one of the preferential categories:

  • veterans and participants of the Second World War, as well as citizens equivalent to them;
  • prisoners of concentration camps who were under 18 years of age at the time of their stay in them;
  • disabled children with congenital diseases of the musculoskeletal system;
  • citizens who have become disabled due to radiation exposure.

What should a car be like for disabled people?

A car for disabled people with problems with independent movement must meet two basic requirements:

  1. Safety - the use of special vehicles cannot pose any danger to all road users. This means that the car should be as comfortable and convenient to drive as possible for a person with disabilities.
  2. Convenience - disabled people with mobility problems should be able to easily fit in the car, as well as be comfortable in it.

The legal and material basis for this social assistance to disabled people was laid back during the USSR, therefore, unfortunately, the implementation of the above points did not take place. Citizens were given cars of the Tavria or Oka brands, converted for the needs of people with disabilities, or manually operated motorized wheelchairs. This transport was neither safe nor comfortable for the driver and/or passenger. Therefore, after the introduction of legislation on the possibility of receiving monetary compensation, many disabled people chose to purchase a car of a different level. The obtained foreign cars had to be specially equipped with a mounted control unit. Then they had to receive a certificate for their purchase and installation of equipment and register changes with the traffic police. Despite all the difficulties, such cars could become an excellent means of transportation and transportation for the disabled. In addition, such cars do not need to be returned to social security authorities after their intended service life. They can be sold or transferred to a close relative.

The procedure for people with disabilities to receive a car in 2019

To answer a question that concerns many citizens: which disabled people are entitled to a car in 2019? - for now we can give a disappointing answer: only to those who stood in line to receive this social benefit before 2005. Despite the fact that for several years now legislators have been actively discussing the possibility of returning preferences for the issuance of special cars for people with disabilities, there is no money in the budget for these purposes. If for some reason a disabled person has not yet received the required monetary compensation or benefit in kind, he needs to exercise his right.

Where to contact

From time to time, rumors circulate in society that people with disabilities may be given free cars starting January 1, 2017. This is not true. Only those citizens who joined the waiting list before 2005 are entitled to receive cars. At the same time, the partial benefit in kind was replaced by monetary compensation (100,000 rubles). However, there is an objective opinion of experts that the state’s past obligations have long been fulfilled in full.

Currently, people with disabilities can only rely on the provision of the “Social Taxi” service. To use it, you must:

If manually controlled cars are again added to the list of technical means of rehabilitation for the disabled, a body responsible for accepting applications and distributing preferences in order of priority will be appointed. And all interested parties will receive notifications from social protection authorities.

Required documents

As a basis for connecting a specific citizen with disabilities to the “Social Taxi” service, it is necessary to provide the following documents to the society for the disabled:

  • passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation;
  • SNILS;
  • certificate of assignment of a disability group;
  • bank account (social card) details.

Receipt times

When all the necessary documents are provided and the formalities are completed, the registration of a disabled person on the list of beneficiaries for a social taxi occurs quickly. A few days after registration, a citizen will be able to use preferential transport.

Other transport preferences for car owners

A manually operated car for disabled people is not the only benefit that citizens of this category could count on. Currently, it is impossible to receive a car or monetary compensation for it, but it is realistic to expect privileges in the following areas:

  1. . Regional and municipal authorities are in charge of budget collection; at the level of regions, administrations and municipalities, decisions are made to reduce or abolish the tax on car use (). Disabled people who bought cars on their own or received them from the state are entitled to a 50% discount when paying transport tax. An important condition is that the engine power of special vehicles is no more than 100 horsepower. In financially prosperous regions of Russia, the authorities are canceling the transport tax for WWII veterans with disabilities, as well as disabled people of the first and second groups.
  2. Social taxi. To transport sedentary citizens (subject to medical indications) in Russian cities (Moscow, St. Petersburg, etc.) “Social Taxi” operates. Citizens pay for trips around the city and suburbs by taxi on preferential terms (hourly pay at a reduced rate). The service is provided to both disabled people and accompanying persons.
  3. Maintenance. If a disabled person has his own car (issued by social security authorities or purchased for cash), an extraordinary inspection is required.

Important! Transport preferences apply to people with disabilities of any age. If a child with physical disabilities lives in a family, parents receive the right to use existing transport benefits.

Is the group and other nuances of getting a car important?

In 2019, it is expected to consider the issue of improving the mobility of citizens with physical disabilities. Two options for solving the problem have been identified:

  • give disabled people free Russian cars (they will need to be equipped and equipped with manual controls);
  • pay appropriate monetary compensation sufficient to purchase a car.

Whatever option is taken into consideration, the main criterion for determining the register of those in need will be physical health and the severity of the disease. Therefore, to answer the question - how can a disabled person of group 1 get a car in 2019? - difficult. But it is obvious that citizens included in this preferential category will apply for social car preferences in the first place.
