Lawmakers want to seriously make life difficult for the drivers now in the Parliament submitted six “road” bills. And if the increase in penalties for drunk driving and for driving without a license, the experts agree, the new requirements for the issuance of medical references they feel justified and say that they not only will not eradicate corruption, and make it more.
HEALTH AND SOBRIETY. Innovations with obtaining medical references such: they will be obliged to be in possession of each driver, lack, want to impose a fine of 850 UAH, for the fake document about health — the fine of 510 UAH. The validity of the certificate from 10 years to young to 1 year for seniors and those who are transporting people or dangerous goods. Now help is 200 UAH and to it is necessary when the primary do, their replacement (for example, a man changed his name) or restoring lost. If the law passes, to help can only be in gosmedakademii — private clinics will be deprived of such a right, because, according to one of the authors of the bill people’s Deputy Oleg Musiya, there’s rampant corruption, they say, of the certificate of competency of drivers in 99% of cases issued in absentia.
In addition, we want to expand the examination — in addition to a dozen doctors from the psychiatrist and the psychiatrist to gynecologist for women (men urologist is not necessary), you will need to do a cardiogram tests, including blood sugar, group and RH, to check vision and… the vestibular apparatus!
Also deputies suggest to further hit the pocket fans drive drunk. If now the first penalty for drunkenness — 200 UAH 10, the second 20 400 UAH, — I propose to increase by 5 times, to 102 thousand UAH. Deprived of a driving licence, but sat down behind the wheel want to impose a fine of 17 thousand UAH (now 510 UAH).
But that’s not all: one of the bills included a provision according to which after the Protocol of drunk driving, the perpetrator will need to undergo drug addiction extraordinary medical control and prophylactic measures (lectures about the dangers of riding drunk with viewing photos of horrible accidents, as is common abroad). Otherwise — a fine of 3400 UAH.
MPS AND EXPERTS. According to people’s Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Valeria Karpuntsova, support among the deputies there, but while bills are pending in committees. “If the committees will give a positive conclusion, I think, Parliament will vote.
So, medspravki for all is an old European practice”, — said Karpuntsov us.
But the lawyer Vadim Volodarsky said that accidents due to poor health of the driver and now the minuscule, although the upgrade certificate is not required.
“But there is enormous corruption component — it is easy to predict the outrage of millions of drivers who had been Queuing in getpolyline, and attempts to “solve the issue” with help through friends, doctors. Yes, and if the list of contraindications was applied correctly — the drivers will not go, because to find a person without a single diagnosis prohibiting to operate the machine very difficult. On the contrary, you need to come to the Western format when future drivers will only check your eyesight.”
Transport expert Nicholas Kichmarenko supports tougher penalties for drunkenness: “it is Already clear that the new penalties 10 200 UAH had little impact. But if I have to pay 100 thousand UAH, the person will think — drink driving or not.”
Inspection with 2019/ November 2019 return inspection (MOT) for non-commercial cars, cancelled in 2011 a Bill filed by THE Cabinet in may 2016, the first inspection of the new machine will be in 4 years, then every 2 years. According to the head of transport Committee of the Verkhovna Rada Yaroslav dubnevich, the law needs to be expanded.
As explained to us the expert Oleg Nazarenko, the return of all — requirements of the Association with the EU. “But the document of the Cabinet of Ministers violates the rights of drivers and private stations in favor of the state and emphasis on environmental cars. 60% of our cars “ecology” will not work, it is necessary to soften the requirements, otherwise it is a road to corruption,” — said Nazarenko us.
