Over the past decade as a result of the accident injured about 3 million people, and the death toll was 350 thousand. man. According to Putin, this is terrible numbers.

The President noted that there is still often found such a violation as exit into oncoming traffic. “The penalty, up to the deprivation of a driving license, does not stop them apparently a result of irresponsible driving killed any innocent people.” – He said

Putin said that most road accidents are caused by drivers.. “That aggression and lack of respect for other road users, as a rule, lead to a severe accident. So I think the key task of raising the driving culture, and this is strictly enforced rules of the road, following the rules of competent friendly behavior on the roads, the sense of responsibility for their lives and the lives of their loved ones, for the safety of other road users, “-. the head of state

Creating a culture of driving, according to the president, is a long process, and it should go in parallel with the tightening of penalties for violation of traffic rules

Special attention – safety at pedestrian crossings

Putin separately mentioned drivers responsible for traffic violations on the “zebra”

“There is still a lot of people killed on the pedestrian. .. transitions last year, more than 1 thousand people (have died in road accidents at pedestrian crossings), said he “believes that the need to increase the responsibility of drivers for violating the rules at pedestrian crossings,” -. said the president

. The responsibility of the Cabinet and DPS

Putin recalled that over the past decade the level of car ownership in the country increased by 1.5 times. “Now, in many cities, a thousand residents have an average of 300 cars is clear that the number of cars will increase and this is an objective call for road users and for those who are responsible for its organization..” – He believes

At the same time, Putin stressed that the staff of traffic police should deal with the accident prevention and to educate, the involvement of the media and the public, as well as use of the Internet. All these measures, he believes, will be especially effective in the municipal and regional levels.

“It is necessary to make greater use of preventive measures, including the employees of traffic police. They should not only fix the violation, but also on actually organize safe traffic “- said Putin

The President also recalled that in May 2015 he instructed the government to take further measures to reduce the death rate from road accidents.. In August, the government approved a plan of action, which was scheduled to make the State Duma 13 bills.

“However, all terms have been violated. The State Duma is now just one bill. The rest are still being approved by the government. I ask for the personal responsibility of the ministers, heads of agencies, which was entrusted with the preparation of these documents, to bring them to the State Duma that they, as planned, were adopted during the spring session of the year “, – said Putin

Automatic locking.

Speaking at a meeting of the presidium of the State Council, deputy interior minister Dmitry Mironov noted that to improve traffic safety systems are actively used auto-commit violations. They identify two-thirds of cases of violations.

“Of course, the discipline of drivers operating system automatically fixing violations. It currently includes more than 10 thousand control zones. With their use in the past year issued more than 50 million rulings on administrative offenses that is 67% of the total number of detected administrative violations “, – he told

He also expressed confidence that the regions should be primarily interested in the fact that the automatic fixing violations effectively.. “Therefore, the working group invited to send received from the fines money is not just in the budget of the RF subject, and directly into the road fund for the implementation of measures to eliminate accidents foci, as well as on the development of automatic locking (offenses),” – said Mironov

Sending fines administration in regions

Offers of the regional authorities is to legalize the transfer of these funds on a mandatory basis in the regional road funds, “paint them, to bring them to purpose.” Now the government entities have the right to transfer these funds to the road funds, but it is not an obligation.

In turn, the presidential aide Andrei Belousov said that “now in the regions of the money from the road fund is taken, they are used inappropriately manner. ” . “Trust a way, this rule has not been established Ministry of Transport proposes to set it up is therefore very reasonable if to these penalties were recorded, that they purposefully went to the road funds.”, – He said

“Since the Ministry of Finance did not. object, then let’s do it “, – said Putin

<. p> According to Mironov, while traffic police issued almost 90% of accidents in which harm is caused only vehicles. “This situation reduces the already inadequate capacity of the road network, minimizes the chances of our response to changing traffic situations, the facts of other more severe accident”, – he said

Putin supported this approach.. he said – “To remove unnecessary inconvenience and formalities necessary to implement a set of measures aimed at the mass execution of an accident without police officers.” The President noted that it was an accident, which resulted in only property damage caused. “Today, not all members of the movement are ready for such a self-sufficient, but they are the future and these principles will soon become as familiar as cars insurance.” -.
