State Duma deputy of the Liberal Democratic Party Vasily Vlasov addressed the head of the traffic police of Russia, General Mikhail Chernikov, with a proposal to introduce a “winter amnesty” to place drivers under administrative responsibility. We are talking about situations in which motorists can unintentionally violate traffic rules due to the illegibility of road markings. And up to the “heavy” articles with the departure of the “counterpart”. The situation with such incidents has escalated, for example, in Moscow and the Moscow region due to recent heavy snowfalls. So, on December 19, snowfall in Moscow repeated the record of 1941: as much as 34 cm of precipitation fell in a day.

True, according to the AvtoVzglyad portal, such an initiative has no chance of implementation. And it rather belongs to the category of creating a “positive” informational sound for the electorate. After all, the introduction of such proposals will require a long effort to change the legislation, in terms of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation and traffic rules.

But the main problem will be the impossibility of forming reliably working criteria for the transition to some method of judging violations. So for now, such situations will be interpreted unequivocally, not in favor of the offender. At least in the case of video recording. If you encounter an inspector, the human factor can play to your advantage.
