According to the information of the security department of the LMR, last week parking inspectors fined 5,616 drivers for violating the rules of stopping/parking cars, for a total amount of more than UAH 2 million.
Funds from paying fines for improper parking go to the local budget, and they are directed, in particular, to the needs of our military.
We remind you that the minimum fine is UAH 340. But, depending on the specifics of the offense, it can increase to UAH 680. If the offending driver pays within 10 days, the amount of the fine is halved.
“Drivers are also fined for non-payment of paid parking services. In this case, a fine is imposed in the amount of 20 times the cost of an hour of parking,” said the security department of the LMR.
The total amount of fines for the past week was UAH 2,136,800. Also, due to violation of parking rules, 205 vehicles were evacuated to the detention area last week.
The Lviv City Hall emphasizes that the work of parking inspectors is primarily aimed at preventing spontaneous parking, improving the discipline of paying for paid parking services, prompt temporary detention of vehicles that create a significant obstacle for other road users.
The Lviv City Council strongly urges drivers not to park their cars in violation of traffic rules, in particular, under the signs “stopping is prohibited”, “parking is prohibited”, at intersections. Chaotic parking complicates road traffic, as well as, in the conditions of martial law, the passage of special vehicles, which ensure the life of the city and help the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
