Meanwhile, if a pet was injured in an accident, the amount of payments to the owner depends on documents confirming the price of the deceased. We see a different picture as a result of a collision with a wild animal. The injured party here is the state, which must also pay a fine. So, the penalties for a downed mole are currently 100 rubles, for a wild boar – 30,000, and for an elk and all 80,000.
True, the insurance company can cover these costs if the driver has an OSAGO policy and the documents about the accident are properly prepared. But first, immediately after a collision with living beings, it is necessary to stop, call the auxiliary gang, call the traffic police, repair the damage to the vehicle and report the incident to the insurers. Hiding from the scene of the incident is strictly not recommended, since such actions entail administrative arrest and even deprivation of “rights” for up to a year and a half.
But not all animal accidents happen in the woods. You are unlikely to see wild boars and foxes on Moscow’s roads, but there are plenty of homeless cats and dogs. There is no penalty if you hit them. However, the inspector of the traffic police has yet to be called. After all, if a driver who fled the scene of a “crime” is recorded by a video recorder of a vigilant colleague in the stream, and he sends the recording to the traffic police, then the offender can be denied “right” for 1.5 . years or arrested for 15 days for leaving the scene of an accident.
