Checking traffic police fines by car number

Traffic police fines are a painful topic for any driver, and not only because the amounts of these same fines can hit the family budget quite hard, but also because very serious sanctions can follow for their late payment. We have already written about what may be for non-payment of fines, but just in case, we will repeat again.

If the driver fails to pay the fine on time, 60 days plus 10 days to appeal and 10 days to ensure that the traffic police make sure that the fine has not really been paid - he is waiting for:

• a double fine for non-payment - that is, if you did not pay 500 rubles on time, you will have to pay 1000 and 500 rubles;
• Imprisonment for 15 days or 50 hours of community service - this measure applies to persistent non-payers.

Well, in especially severe cases, if the total amount of debt exceeds 10 thousand rubles, a ban on leaving the country and confiscation of property is possible.

In a word, it is better to pay the fine on time and forget about it, and in order to check whether funds have been received on the current account of the traffic police department, you can use special services for checking the payment of fines on the official website of the traffic police. It is no secret that, for one reason or another, money may be lost somewhere and not credited to the traffic police account, and if you have not saved the payment document, then it will be difficult to prove anything.
