Is it possible to park a car at the entrance of a residential building

This situation is fraught with conflicts between residents of high-rise buildings. At the same time, it is easy to find a peaceful solution if you learn to negotiate with your neighbors. Read also: What is an apartment with an encumbrance Additionally, deputies proposed a law according to which new rules will apply to paid parking lots for residents of nearby houses.

In particular, at night they turn into free and everyone can use them, including residents of nearby houses.

Presumably, the regional authorities will regulate the implementation of the law, and for control they will have to create a special register that takes into account all parking spaces in the city, including those located in the local area.

The debate about parking spaces is getting louder and louder. People go to various tricks to stake out this or that place in the yard, put the car as close as possible to their entrance, drive onto the lawn or even a playground in order to provide themselves with a minimum distance to move their body in space.

I don’t like all this either, so I decided to prepare a material on how to force motorists to put their cars in the right way, and not like Neanderthals. For my region, the problem became relevant around 2010.

Attention

Since then, there have been more and more cars, and the development of automotive infrastructure, in fact, lags far behind the pace of motorization of the population. Most of the yards of today's Russia will not physically be able to accommodate the cars of all the residents of the surrounding houses.

Real parking wars are unleashed.

Parking a car near the house: the operation of the law in 2018

After a verbal offer to rearrange the car, company employees can safely call a tow truck and send the car to a car impound without breaking the law. Randomly parked vehicles make it difficult for emergency services to respond as quickly as possible to a call.

It happens that an ambulance that has left for a seriously ill patient, whose life depends on the efficiency of medical workers, is not able to overcome obstacles from cars piled up in the wrong places.

Car parking in front of the entrance

In such a situation, record violations on video / photo and call the traffic police on duty. What to do if you have blocked / closed the car in the yard? The driver who closed the passage of other vehicles, violates the rules of stopping or parking Vehicle(art.

12.19 h. 4 of the Code of Administrative Offenses), and this is a fine of up to 2,000 rubles (for Moscow and St. Petersburg - 3,000 rubles). To hold accountable for such things, take a picture of the violation and call the traffic police on duty.

No need to chop off the shoulder, show tolerance. Parking on the sidewalk in the yard. How to hold accountable? A sidewalk is a part of a street reserved for pedestrians.

The current rules for parking vehicles in the yards of residential buildings

To do this, perform the following steps:

  • photograph and videotape violations;
  • contact the traffic police officer to visit your yard;
  • inform him about this problem and provide all photo and video materials.

After drawing up the protocol, the inspector will issue the appropriate fines. Sometimes motorists violate sanitary standards, in such cases it is also necessary to photograph and film recorded violations, and then contact certain authorities.

Sometimes even a fire inspector has the right to issue a fine. This happens, for example, when a parking lot interferes with the passage to a burning house. Bringing to the attention of inspectors information about improper parking can also be carried out by employees of management companies. For example, in case of violation of the law on parking at garbage cans.

Basic rules for parking in the yards of residential buildings in 2017

The law allows residents of the house to install barriers at the entrance to the yard. This will protect them from the cars of residents and guests from neighboring buildings who could not find a place in their parking pocket.

However, the purchase and maintenance of the barrier is not included in the utility fee. Its installation can be made after the meeting of all owners and the collection of signatures. Consent to the barrier must give 2/3 of all owners. Money for the installation and maintenance of this equipment is collected from all apartments in the house in equal shares.

What the deputies want to introduce The new law was developed by the party of Sergei Mironov - "Fair Russia". So far, the project cannot yet be called finalized, since the mechanisms of its action for houses that were built earlier and did not have a vast area around are not clear.

That's why new law is under development.

Parking in the courtyards of residential buildings in 2017/2018: rules and restrictions

One more important point: a parking lot for tenants of a high-rise building can only be free of charge and belong to all car owners - the owners of the house. Motorists should understand that if your personal car does not interfere with anyone, there will be no complaints.

If you are sure that your car does not create any obstacles to traffic, but the neighbors are still unhappy, talk to them, you can find out the main complaints and try to eliminate them. Perhaps the operation of your engine in the morning prevents residents from getting enough sleep.

In this case, the output will be a new muffler with modern absolutely silent characteristics. And the neighbors, in turn, will be happy to meet you.

The deputies' proposal is as follows:

  1. The distribution of parking spaces should be related to the area of ​​the apartment. If you have a standard one-room apartment - 33 square meters, then one place will be allocated on the adjacent territory.

    If the area of ​​​​the apartment exceeds 50 meters, then families will have two places in the parking lot.

  2. When designing, it is necessary to provide for 40 places for guests if a thousand people live in a high-rise building. If the number of residents is supposed to be equal to two thousand, then there should be 80 guest places.

This law is not perfect, since in Russia large families with several cars can live in small housing.

According to the new rules, they will be forced to leave "extra" cars in other territories. While some of the places assigned to residents of spacious apartments may be empty.

Is it possible to park a car at the entrance of a residential building

Therefore, contractors try to get as much land as possible when designing residential buildings in order to take into account all the subtleties. Almost all houses of modern construction are equipped with parking in accordance with the law.

But most of the houses of the old building do not have these parking lots, as they were built in accordance with a standard project, so there are often problems with parking cars near these houses.

By contacting the above authorities, you will be able to influence unscrupulous owners of vehicles that park incorrectly. However, the norms on parking rules are contained not only in this law.

There is another significant legal act that is well known to every vehicle owner.

Such cases are within their competence.

  • Contacting the Illegal Parking Commission
  • Unfortunately, special commissions today exist only in large cities (such as Moscow and St. Petersburg). Where to park in the yard? Some drivers are rather frivolous about parking a car, choosing a place that is most visible from the window or located next to the entrance and does not even think that they have violated any rules. Meanwhile, the places of possible parking are prescribed in normative document. Into the rule law traffic a clause on the rules of parking in the residential sector is specially entered.

Is it possible to park at the entrance of a residential building

I have repeatedly seen how people are ready to fight like gladiators, just not to walk the extra 50 meters on foot. Why parking in the yards should be organized according to the rules? Firstly, crookedly set cars impede the passage of large vehicles.

Garbage trucks that take out garbage in the morning (by the way, an article about the rights and obligations in the housing and communal services sector), trucks, owners of large vehicles - they all suffer inconvenience. But the worst thing is that closely parked cars often do not allow ambulances and firefighters to pass.

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 a parking lot near the house or near the cottage. In this case, there are no problems.

All this, of course, is good, 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 such 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 the deputies of the State Duma 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 car parking in the courtyard of the house will become paid. However, many experts doubt that all the discussed measures will radically solve the existing problem...

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

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

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

Parking rules in the courtyard of the house

You can often see a picture when, with a lack of free space on the sidewalk and the absence of a lawn fence, cars choose it. In this case, one must be prepared for a fine, which will be issued by the traffic police officer at the call of 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 you need to understand that in addition to the traffic police, there are also sanitary services that can punish you for parking near the windows.

2. You can not leave the car near the garbage containers

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

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

Rules govern time continuously 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 relevant in winter, when low air temperatures make motorists warm up the engine in the morning.

As a result, the yard is filled with the noise of running engines and puffs of exhaust gases, which, of course, causes dissatisfaction among the 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.

Also banned SDA parking in the yards of residential buildings and in other places on the sidewalks. True, with the proviso that if the distance for the passage of pedestrians is less than two meters. Also a logical rule, because pedestrians also need space.

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

5. Blockage of the road

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 huge problem for both other drivers and special vehicles: ambulances, firefighters, rescuers, gas service, water utility and others.

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

In the face of fierce competition for vacant spaces, especially "smart" drivers equip their own parking spaces next to their home, 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 personal 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 parking pockets for ten cars no closer than ten meters from the house, so if you put the car close to the wall or right under the windows, get ready for a fine. Drivers of trucks and other trucks. For vehicles over 3.5 tons, there are parking lots.

Alexander, it is better to let a car approaching from the right pass than later trying to prove that it left the surrounding area. Since by default it is not clear whether the parking is an adjacent territory or not.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello. about the residential area and the courtyard area, everything is very interesting and resolving issues with violators is much easier than in a situation where the administration calls the passage past two houses from the side of the entrances a duplicate road and for this reason refuses to put up any traffic restriction signs or at least speed. According to the cadastral map, the residents of the houses own only the land under the house itself, and it is not possible to solve this problem without the participation of the administration. and the traffic police ask the question, why don’t you follow the children for the statement that from the entrance the children get straight to carriageway.

Marina, Hello.

What exactly do you want to achieve in this situation? Do you want to use the road for something else?

Well, apparently, so as not to drive at high speed on the road (legally on the road, but in fact the local area).

In general, artificial bumps are usually made for such cases.

Well, another sign 3.2 would be nice.

I can understand the sadness of the locals. Instead of living in a quiet place, they arranged a high-speed highway.

By our house, located in the private sector, very often underage children ride ATVs. The road also passes next to the playground, children on ATVs "fly" at breakneck speed. We repeatedly called and complained to the traffic police. But we did not wait for the actions from the traffic police. The situation is heating up more and more every year. What to do and if there are any methods of influence. It becomes unbearable to live and be afraid for the kids playing on the playground.

The supervisory authority over the traffic police is the prosecutor's office. You can complain about inaction.

Contact the administration locality with a request to limit the speed in this area with the installation of appropriate signs (artificial bumps).

Hello! In our yard, without warning, work began on the improvement of the yard. Several cars were locked in the courtyard parking lot. On the phone, the head of the improvement answered that the parking inside the yard is for guests, and the car can be left on it for no more than 2 hours. Is it so?

Sergei, Hello.

1. I recommend that you find out on the basis of what documents such requirements are made in the parking lot. There are yards where such requirements are established, but this is far from being the case everywhere. In addition, the fact of guest parking does not give the right to "lock" cars.

2. If the car cannot leave the yard, then you can try to bring the culprit of the situation to responsibility for (20,000 rubles).

Good luck on the roads!

An automatic barrier was installed near the house, but some kind of car constantly blocks the entrance or exit in order to annoy us because it cannot enter the yard. What is the punishment for such drivers?

Love, call the traffic police and report that the car is blocking the entrance. A tow truck will come and take the car for interfering. Also, the driver will be fined under part 4 of article 12.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses.

As a rule, one evacuation is enough.

Good luck on the roads!

Dmitry-526

Hello. The management company at the entrance to the yard hung a sign limiting the speed to 5 km / h and threatened to send data to the traffic police on violators. How legal is the action of the managing company?

Hello. You can get ahead of the Criminal Code and "send data to the traffic police" about the offense of the Criminal Code itself.

in the SDA there is paragraph 1.5: ...It is forbidden to damage or pollute the road surface, remove, obstruct, damage, arbitrarily install road signs ...

If the sign is installed arbitrarily, it will be removed.

Good day! I am a resident of Krasnodar. Housing construction is actively carried out in our residential microdistrict. Lately, it has become impossible to rest. All night under the windows of our houses rides construction machinery. Especially "get" concrete mixers with mixers included. In the morning I did not get enough sleep and "broken" trudge to work. And I have to carry out operations ... Is there any government on builders rumbling at night? Thank you in advance!

Ivan, Hello.

This issue does not apply to road traffic, so I can only recommend that you study the Federal Law "On the Sanitary and Epidemiological Welfare of the Population" of March 30, 1999 N 52-FZ and related regulatory documents on your own.

In general, the procedure should be like this:

Find norms for the maximum noise level at night;

Measure the actual noise level at night;

Find specialists who will draw up an act on exceeding the noise level;

Contact the regulatory authorities with a complaint.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello!

Tell me, is it possible to somehow regulate, limit the exit of cars from the fenced quarter of new buildings, which goes directly to the entrance of a five-story building of an old building? The new quarter has several exits, there are bypass roads behind their houses, but the residents preferred to make these bypass roads additional parking places, and they began to leave, in overwhelming numbers, along one "convenient" path. This gave a very high traffic of entry and exit, increased the risk of getting under the car and the child and the old man. In addition, if the car's brakes fail, and cars leave and drive in at a speed far from 20 km / h, then the car can "drive" right into the entrance of a residential building. Please advise how to solve this problem?

Elena, Hello.

First, find out who owns the land in front of the specified entrance. If it refers to your residential building, then you can make a decision at the general meeting of owners to, for example, block the road.

If the land does not belong to the house, then it remains only to contact the traffic police with a request to install additional road signs that restrict the movement of cars.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello, we have a driveway, there is a school along the road. There is a pedestrian crossing from the school across the street. Further, after 6-8 meters of roadside green territory, the courtyard territory runs parallel to the roadway, there is a blue sign at the entrance to it. In the inner courtyard there is a continuation of this pedestrian crossing, a fairly wide crossing (visually, by the way, is there a regulation on the width of the pedestrian crossing?). So the traffic police got into the habit of continuing the pedestrian crossing in the courtyard area to evacuate cars parked along the house. Base - no 5 meters to the pedestrian crossing. Are the actions of the traffic police legal?

Evgenia-61

Image:

Evgenia, the actions of traffic police officers are lawful.

Vehicles must not park closer than 5 meters from a pedestrian crossing.

Good luck on the roads!

Dmitry-530

Hello, when leaving a residential area, the driver is required to let pedestrians through, this is understandable, but this rule applies when entering a residential area. It often happens that drivers fly into a turn between cars oncoming traffic, and generally do not look at pedestrians

Dmitry, Hello.

Clause 8.3 of the SDA:

8.3. When entering the road from the adjacent territory, the driver must give way to vehicles and pedestrians moving along it, and at the exit from the road - to pedestrians and cyclists whose path it crosses.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello!

At the entrance to the courtyard, an asphalt patch (not a sidewalk, not a lawn, not marked with markings or a curb), away from the carriageway, but adjacent to it directly, is usually used for car parking. Cars stand between the passage to the courtyard and the passage to the underground parking. The road is not blocked. Thus parked car, was evacuated to penalty area. The protocol states: "Parking in the second row on the roadway." In words, the inspector explained that the car was not at the edge of the roadway and not parallel to the curb.

Are the actions of the traffic police legal?

Kirill, Hello.

Attach a diagram of the specified location or a photograph of it.

Alexey-553

Hello.

Our management company painted pedestrian crossings in the yard. Is it legal?

Alexander-858

Is it legal to install a pedestrian crossing sign and draw a solid line in the coverage area of ​​the "residential zone" sign? Initially, pedestrians were given priority in the residential area of ​​the sign. And why is a solid line drawn in intra-block passages, where the speed is limited to 20 km / h, in order to reduce the number of parking spaces?

Alexey, Hello.

In general, the legislation does not prohibit the organization of pedestrian crossings in courtyard areas. As for your question, I can’t exactly answer it, because. I don't know if the organization of transitions has been agreed upon.

Good luck on the roads!

Alexander:

1. The legislation does not prohibit this.

2. Ask this question to the person responsible for organizing traffic on this street. The reason why the markup is applied must be known to him.

Good luck on the roads!

Valery-109

I parked my car 100m from sign 5.21 at the entrance to the residential area and next to the entrance to the courtyard on the opposite side of the entrance to the courtyard. At night, my car was evacuated to a fine parking lot, charged with article 12.29.4 and a fine of 2000 rubles. Is this legal? The detention of the vehicle is explained by them as a distance of less than 5 m from the car to the zone of intersection of the carriageways.

Valery if the car interfered with the movement of other vehicles, then the evacuation is legal.

In this case, I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the case materials and understand whether the car really interfered with the movement of someone. This must be stated in the case. If there is no such information, then it makes sense to challenge the fine, because. parking itself at a distance of less than 5 meters from the crossed carriageway does not entail evacuation.
