Deprivation of rights for debts in 2016

From the very beginning of 2015, the country's motorists were surprised by the news that the State Duma would consider amendments and additions to the federal law "On Enforcement Proceedings". It seems that the authorities have decided to take seriously people who do not pay their debts on time. According to these changes, it is possible to remain without a VU after the approval of all these amendments not only for drunk driving and other traffic violations, but also for non-payment of debts.

On January 15.01.2016, XNUMX, these changes were approved by the Duma and entered into force.

For what debts will they be deprived of rights?

You can say goodbye to a driver's license for a certain period if you have debts:

• for alimony;
• for causing harm to human health;
• for overdue traffic police fines or for any other administrative violations;
• causing property or moral damage;
• compensation for harm in connection with the death of the breadwinner;
• non-property requirements related to the upbringing of children.

Please note that deprivation of rights for debts is one of the ways to influence debtors. This measure will be resorted to only in cases where the person does not heed the previous warnings from the executive or collection services.

That is, if for some reason you have alimony arrears or you did not manage to pay a fine for traffic violations on time, the employees of the executive service will first contact you and offer to voluntarily deposit money. Accordingly, if no reaction follows from your side, a measure of deprivation of rights will be applied.

One more point should also be noted - debts are taken into account, the amounts for which exceed 10 thousand rubles. For drivers, this is good news, since most fines in the Code of Administrative Offenses are well below this amount.

Thus, if you have a debt of less than 10 rubles, you do not need to be afraid of deprivation of rights. However, according to the legislation of the Russian Federation, other sanctions may follow, so try not to have debts at all.

Debt deprivation procedure

If the debtor does not express a desire to voluntarily repay the debt, the bailiff will notify him that, according to the recently entered amendments to the Federal Law, this measure can be applied to him.

The driver will be considered aware of the application of this measure of influence to him even in such cases:

• refused to receive the summons;
• did not appear at the specified address for the summons;
• the summons was sent to the last known address of the debtor's residence, although in fact he may not actually live there;
• the debtor was notified by email.

In a word, the executive service will not be interested in whether you received a letter or not, the very fact of sending it will be considered proof of the fact that you were informed of the possibility of deprivation of rights for debts.

After that, the person is given 5 days to transfer the driver's license to the bailiffs. They, in turn, are required to issue a corresponding receipt.

If you do not transfer your VU or do not pay off the debt voluntarily, the number of your rights is entered into the general database of the traffic police. Accordingly, such a driver will be equated to deprived of the right to drive a vehicle. At the first stop at the traffic police post, he will be held liable under article 12.7 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, part 2:

• detention and arrest of the vehicle;
• a fine of 30 thousand;
• or arrest for 15 days / mandatory work for 100-200 hours.

Based on all this, if you know that you have debts, it is advisable to immediately check their presence, or check on the official website of the traffic police if your driver's license has been banned. We have already told on Vodi.su how to check the driver for fines or deprivation of a VU.

A new article has also appeared in the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation - 17.17. According to it, violators of the temporary restriction on the use of personal vehicles for debts will be deprivation of rights for a period of one year (that is, even if you pay all the debts, you will not be able to drive), or compulsory work for 50 hours.

Who is not deprived of rights for debts?

There is a whole category of citizens to whom this law does not apply:

• drivers for whom driving is the only source of income;
• persons living in remote places and forced to use personal transport to ensure normal life;
• disabled people of the first and second groups, or people who are dependent on them;
• families with a disabled child;
• persons who have received a deferment or installment plan for the payment of debts.

It is worth noting that you can also obtain this status in cases where you know that you are threatened with this measure, so it makes sense to contact bailiffs and discuss with them in advance the issue of obtaining an installment plan.

You can also quickly reduce the amount of debt to less than 10 thousand, and you will not be threatened with deprivation of the VU.

How to return a driver's license?

You have only two options:

• obtain the status of a person from the above list, for example, get a job as a driver;
• pay off debts.

In the second case, you need to keep all receipts for payment and provide them to the bailiffs. Those, in turn, will remove the restriction from your VU. The entire procedure, according to the law, should not take more than a day, in fact, everything can be delayed, so we recommend checking the information on your ID on the official website of the traffic police.

You can check your debts on the website of the Federal Bailiffs Service.

Using it is very simple:

• choose the territorial body - the region in which you live;
• enter your full name;
• enter the test captcha;
• you will see all the information about the debts you currently have.

You should not drag out debts for a long time, as the consequences can be very serious.

Pay attention to a positive point: before the law came into force, it was planned that deprivation of rights could also threaten debtors on consumer loans or housing and communal services. Fortunately, this measure was not implemented in the current amendment to the law. However, there is no certainty that in the future the deputies will not take such a step.
