‘Parking wars’ between the residents of the city’s sleeping areas have recently come to nothing. In this sense, residents are now more afraid of tow trucks and ‘activists’
Previously, about a decade ago, citizens of megacities considered parking in the courtyards of Soviet-era high-rise buildings a real “hell and Israel.” After all, I had to look for a place to ‘lock up’ my car for the night, it took a really long time. But such problems soon turned into childish chatter – after cities, especially Moscow, began to be intensively built up with “human settlements.” Where three to four times as many people live in each skyscraper than in the ‘old Soviet’ panel high-rises.
The designers of such world districts do not think at all about the parking space for local residents’ cars. And in such conditions, car owners have to do all sorts of tricks to somehow place their vehicles somewhere. Also on sidewalks. And these places become a paradise for tow trucks. After all, there in one day you can make a weekly plan to fill the confiscated lot with cars from poor fellows who are flattered by buying apartments in a brand new house.
However, in many cases, fines, even for challenging parking on the curb at the house, are illegal. But the fact is that the immediate vicinity of a considerable part of the urban high-rise buildings is mainly regarded as a residential area. That in itself already partially removes them from the field of activity of city guards of the parking regime.
Even though signs prohibiting parking are placed in the yards, these do not always form the basis for a fine. Because they are often placed there by management companies on their own initiative – without official permission from the traffic police and even municipal authorities. Which legally puts them on a par with, for example, street lamps. It makes sense to clarify this legal aspect for every motorist who lives in “human life”.
Moreover: if the car is parked on the sidewalk, there is a good chance that it is in the so-called neighborhood zone. That is generally outside the legal limit of parking ‘right and wrong’. In order to somehow force a local resident there not to leave his car on the sidewalk, a disgruntled subject will have to prove in court (!) that his vehicle is a nuisance to pedestrians. Which is almost impossible.
Fines and evacuation can generally be omitted in such a situation. They will be regarded by the court as arbitrary and unlawful sanctions – with dire consequences for the organization.
It is true that when parking on the sidewalk, a motorist must first ensure (using data from the land register) that the place he has chosen really belongs to the local environment. Otherwise, the “focus” will not work, and the car will be at the mercy of the “penalties”.
