How old do you have to be to drive without a seat? The letter of the law: until what age do you need a child car seat, lack of a seat and other reasons for fines

The driver who left the child alone in the car will be fined 500 rubles, and children over 7 years old were allowed to be transported in the back seat without a car seat

On July 3, the Government of Russia published a Decree on Amendments to the Rules traffic. The most important innovations are those related to the rules for transporting children in a car. On the one hand, they have become tougher, and on the other hand, on the contrary, they have become more liberal. The new rules were planned to be introduced from January 1, 2017, and many media outlets announced this, but then it turned out to be a false start - the draft decree of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was not signed by Dmitry Medvedev. Experts interviewed by Realnoe Vremya support the amendments, but specify that they could be improved. More details - in the material.

"Other means" excluded from the rules: restraints only

The first change in the rules of the road concerns the requirements for the carriage of children.

In particular, paragraph 22.9 is worded as follows: “The carriage of children under the age of 7 years in a car and a truck cab, the design of which provides for seat belts or seat belts and an ISOFIX child restraint system, must be carried out using child restraint systems (devices) corresponding to the weight and height of the child.

Previously, this paragraph sounded like this: “The transportation of children is allowed provided that their safety is ensured, taking into account the design features of the vehicle. Transportation of children under 12 years of age in vehicles equipped with seat belts must be carried out using special child restraints appropriate for the height and weight of the child, or other means that allow the child to be fastened using the seat belts provided for by the design of the vehicle, and on the front passenger car seat - only with the use of special child restraints.

Currently, you can only transport a child in a child restraint. The type of device depends on the weight and age of the child and ranges from infant carriers to so-called boosters. Photo stif-avto.ru

No more litigation

The concept of “other means” that allows you to fasten a child with a regular seat belt was excluded from the rules. This concept of “other means” was interpreted too broadly by the parents: it meant both an adapter strap or frameless car seats, and just a pillow under the ass.

Currently, you can only transport a child in a child restraint. The type of device depends on the weight and age of the child and ranges from infant carriers to so-called boosters.

Recall that the most popular “other means” in Russia were FEST adapters from the Kostroma enterprise of the same name. Rosstandart in December 2016 stated that restraints of this type do not comply with technical regulations and are dangerous for the child. Disputes as to whether it is possible to fasten a child with various straps and adapters for a regular belt were constantly fought between drivers and representatives of the traffic police. In an attempt to defend the rightness, a resident of Yekaterinburg reached the Supreme Court of Russia; in February 2017, the highest court ruled in favor of the driver. The new rules have dotted the i's.

The fine for violating the rules regarding the transportation of children has not changed and amounts to 3,000 rubles.

Accelerator kids will be able to ride like adults

On the one hand, the exception to the rules of “other means” makes them more stringent, on the other hand, more liberal, because now only children up to 6 years old must be put into a chair. Children from 7 to 11 years old can ride in cars and trucks without a child restraint, but only in the back seat.

Here is how this paragraph sounds in the new rules: “The carriage of children aged 7 to 11 years (inclusive) in a car and a truck cab, the design of which provides for seat belts or seat belts and an ISOFIX child restraint system, must be carried out using child restraints systems (devices) corresponding to the weight and height of the child, or using seat belts, and in the front seat of a car - only using child restraint systems (devices) corresponding to the weight and height of the child.

Here, parents of large children, who could not be squeezed not only into a car seat, but also a booster, will breathe freely.

For car seats, a gap in the legislation in the form of “other means” that drivers used, and a restriction of up to 12 years, has been eliminated. Large children were not very comfortable in chairs - 11-12 years old, taller than dad, and he was forced to sit in a chair. Another thing is that they left the reference to age - this is not entirely logical. It must be tied to height - to allocate the maximum age and minimum height, after which the chair can no longer be used, - says Ramil Khairullin, representative of the Federation of Russian Car Owners in Tatarstan.

Irina Volynets, mother of four children and chairman of the National Parents' Committee, agrees with him.

This is a sound decision, because the use of car seats led to restrictions. For example, in my car, only two children can fit in the seats in the back seat, three without seats. And then age - 7 years - it's not like that anymore Small child, the car seat belt is sufficient. But, of course, you need to look at the complexion - someone at 7 years old is large, and someone at 10 years old is small. I would also introduce a dependence on the height and weight of the child, - says Volynets.

Alone in the car: under 7 years old is not allowed

The next major change concerns drivers who like to leave their child alone in the car for a couple of minutes to run to the store or pharmacy. Similar cases occur in Russia more and more often: sometimes a car with a child is taken away by a tow truck, sometimes children left in the cabin get a heat stroke. In 2013 in Ulyanovsk, a child left in a car leaned out the window and pressed the power window button. The girl died of suffocation - her neck was squeezed by glass.

Now clause 12.8 of the SDA has been supplemented with the following paragraph: “It is forbidden to leave a child under the age of 7 in the vehicle while it is parked in the absence of an adult.”

Previously, the paragraph stipulated only the behavior of the driver and sounded like this: “The driver may leave his seat or leave the vehicle if he has taken the necessary measures to prevent the spontaneous movement of the vehicle or its use in the absence of the driver.”

I fully support the changes regarding leaving children alone in the car - I do not approve when parents do this, and the point is not only that it is hot in the car, but also that a small child can be afraid of an enclosed space and the fact that he can call anyone for help, - says Ramil Khairullin.

The rules have changed, they forgot about the fine

“We have consistently pushed for these important changes. It took more than two years for the relevant amendments to the traffic rules to be adopted. This is a very correct, timely measure that will prevent many childhood tragedies. Dozens of children have died after being locked in cars in the heat or because they got entangled in seat belts. Every parent should know that under no circumstances should a child be left alone in a car!” - the former children's ombudsman Pavel Astakhov reacted on Instagram.

Now, a child left alone in a car can be held liable not only under Art. 125 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (“Leaving in danger”) and under Art. 5.35 of the Code of Administrative Offenses (“Failure by parents or other legal representatives of the obligations for the maintenance and upbringing of minors”), but also under Art. 12.19. Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, which regulates the stopping and parking of vehicles.

True, this article, as well as the penalty for failure to fulfill the duties of education, provides for a meager one - up to five hundred rubles. Legislators, who have repeatedly supported the idea of tougher punishment for parents, have asked for harsher measures. For example, the same Pavel Astakhov at one time proposed to fine up to 5 thousand rubles, Olga Krasilnikova from Right Russia declared an amount equivalent to violating the rules for transporting children, and offered a fine of 3 thousand rubles, Vitaly Zolochevsky from Eldepeer spoke about deprivation of rights for a period 1-2 years and a fine of 100 thousand rubles. It is possible that the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, following the traffic rules, will also be amended, and the punishment for drivers who left a child alone in a car will be more serious.

“We have consistently sought these important changes,” Pavel Astakhov responded. Photo by Maria Zvereva

They did not impose large fines so as not to cause social tension in society. Fines are not the goal, the goal is for drivers to know that such behavior - leaving a child alone - is not welcome, this prohibition has more psychological significance. But I think that legislators will observe, and if there are no fewer such cases, they will increase the fine, - Irina Volynets believes.

Even experienced drivers cannot understand and unequivocally answer the question about transporting children in the front seat of a car. Today, every average family has a car, so the transportation of children in transport has become commonplace. At the same time, the responsibility for the safety of the baby rests entirely with the parents.

At what age can children ride in the front seat of a car?

The traffic rules do not mention the minimum age from which children can be transported in the front passenger seat, but when the child is not yet 12 years old, it is required baby car seat. Thus, according to the legal point of view, it is possible to transport children in the front passenger seat of a car from a very early age. The need to transport a child over long distances can occur quite often. It is important to remember that only parents are responsible for the health of the baby.

In the car seat rules for transporting children

By law, children under 12 can only be transported in a car seat or other restraint, preferably in the rear passenger seat. According to statistical studies, it is the seats behind the driver and in the middle of the rear passenger seat that are the safest to ride small. A child under the age of twelve cannot ride in the front seat. In this case, the only exceptions are infants who are transported in rear-facing car seats.

According to the rules of traffic rules, how to protect a child in a car?

The rules for transporting children in a passenger car require that restraints, necessary for safety, take into account parameters such as the height, weight and age of the baby.

Often the use of a car seat or other restraint is not possible or problematic in some modes of transport, including in the front seat. This applies to the gazelle, minibus, bus and other vehicles of public use. In this case, you can use a triangle, an adapter, or transport the baby on a booster. These devices will not cause unnecessary questions from the traffic police inspectors, but they will not be able to protect the baby like a car seat. This is proved by many videos from the scene of an accident.

How old do you have to be to ride in the front seat in Europe?

In Finland, Poland, France, Germany, Greece, the Republic of Kazakhstan, Slovenia and other European countries, they are very strict about the observance of traffic rules regarding the transportation of children. Toddlers under 12 years old are transported there exclusively in the back seat, and only with a height of 135 cm or more is it possible to ride in the front seat using a special seat belt.

What devices help to hold and fasten the child?

You can transport children in the front seat from the age of twelve, if required in more early age, then by law no one can forbid it. There is only one condition - you must use a car seat, another restraint.

It is possible to safely transport a baby with one of the following devices:

car seat;
triangle;
adapter;
classic car seat
booster.

The use of such means will allow the baby to sit comfortably during traffic, while the parent will know that his baby is protected. When buying a restraint, it is necessary to pay attention not only to its price, but also to its quality. A good thing cannot be very cheap.

Warnings for Parents

In order for the Kid to be safe during the trip, parents must follow some rules:

try to install the supporting device on the rear, and not the front seat;
be as concentrated and careful as possible, provide for any change in the traffic situation;
do not carry a baby in the front seat, holding it in your arms;
if the restraint is placed on the passenger seat, disable the airbag mechanism or move the seat as far back as possible, regardless of how old the children are;
do not use the cradle from the stroller to transport the baby, since it cannot be securely attached and this method is contrary to the traffic rules in force in Russia.

It is impossible to make an unambiguous conclusion about the prohibition of certain types of restraint systems or devices; in accordance with the traffic rules, they must comply with the requirements; the Rules do not contain direct prohibitions. What regulations apply to airbags? Lawyers are often asked whether it is possible to put a car seat in the front seat according to traffic rules in 2018 with active airbags. We answer - the rules do not regulate this issue, therefore, it is necessary to be guided by the recommendations of the manufacturer. And most child car seat operating instructions prohibit the use of the product in the front seat with an active airbag. However, there may be exceptions, in some cases the manufacturer allows you to move the seat away from the front panel of the car.

Rules for transporting children in a car from 2018

Such means of transporting children as pads (adapters) for seat belts, boosters (armchairs without handles and backs), as well as frameless (soft) car seats, have gone out of use. Carrying children under 7 in the back seat Children under one year of age should only be transported in the car in a special infant carrier with special rear seat attachment systems.

Important

It is as safe as possible for the child, and besides, it is convenient to use it as a regular carrier. In the infant car seat, nothing interferes with the movements of the child and he has enough space.

When driving, it faces towards the rear of the car, which ensures the greatest safety in the event of a collision. Car seats weigh an average of 10 to 15 kg and are ideal for small children, they do not restrict their breathing, but they take up quite a lot of space.

At what age can a child drive without a car seat?

The last one was July 12, 2017. Then amendments to the traffic rules came into force, which define new rules for transporting children in a car. The rules have become stricter. Some devices that were previously allowed in place of a car seat* can no longer be used.

In addition, a line was removed from the text of the SDA that allowed the use of "other means to fasten a child using seat belts provided for by the design of the vehicle." That is, earlier it was possible to replace the car seat with a simple fabric overlay on the seat belt.

From July 12, 2017, according to the new Rules for the transportation of children, there is a division into two age groups: - under 7 years old; - from 7 to 12 years. Transportation of children from 0 to 7 years old For the transportation of babies up to a year old, the use of an infant carrier is recommended.

What is regulated

In case of ignoring the rules for transporting young children, drivers are brought to administrative responsibility on the basis of Article 12.23 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
The traffic rules regulate the procedure for transporting young children in any type of vehicle.
It is recommended that you familiarize yourself with clause 22.9 of the SDA, since it reflects the features of transporting children in the back seat of the vehicle.

Seat requirement A car seat is a specialized device whose main purpose is to transport young children. At the same time, the main task is to ensure the safety of the child when various traffic accidents occur, in particular when using emergency braking. The presence of a special device is considered a key requirement of Russian legislation.
According to the changed rules, they must go to the checkout together, and you can imagine what it will be like, for example, in winter. In addition, if there are two or three children under seven years old. An even more amusing incident is that, leaving the car, you will not be able to leave your young child, say, with a 17-year-old daughter, because the age of majority in Russia comes from the age of 18.

And what about the sanctions? The size of the fine for transporting children without car seats (according to the above rules), fortunately, has not changed yet. But even now it is quite tangible - 3 thousand rubles (part 3 of Art.

12.23 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation). Violation of the ban on leaving minors alone in a car will fall under the sanction of Article 12.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses and will cost the violator 500 rubles. Although it will be possible to get off with a simple warning.

It is forbidden to transport bulky goods in the car with a child. Sometimes even personal items during an accident can harm a child if they are not properly secured with straps;

Do not forget to take all the necessary medical supplies with you on the road with your child.
This is not only about a standard car first-aid kit, but also about a wide variety of ointments, tablets and medical instruments which may be needed in case of unforeseen situations;
According to the new rules in 2018, the use of child seats and infant carriers is necessary only in cars and trucks. A number of clauses were removed from the traffic rules that obligated drivers to use child restraint seats for transporting children on mopeds, motorcycles, tractors and other non-standard vehicles;
Never leave a child alone in a car, even for a short time.

Then amendments to the traffic rules came into force, which define new rules for transporting children in a car. The rules have become stricter. Some devices that were previously allowed in place of a car seat* can no longer be used. In addition, a line was removed from the text of the SDA that allowed the use of "other means to fasten a child using seat belts provided for by the design of the vehicle." That is, earlier it was possible to replace the car seat with a simple fabric overlay on the seat belt. From July 12, 2017, according to the new Rules for the carriage of children, there is a division into two age groups: - under 7 years old; - from 7 to 12 years old.

Often parents are interested in the question: from what age can you ride a train unaccompanied by adults?

Is it possible to send children on a trip on their own if you need to take the child to relatives for the summer holidays, but adults do not have time for this?

There are situations when a child needs to be sent on a trip, for example, to a championship, a festival, or to a neighboring city to visit their grandmother.

How old do you have to be to ride the train alone?

Unaccompanied by adults, children under 7 years of age are not allowed to travel on trains. From the age of 7, a child can buy an adult ticket for an electric train at the box office or ride on a travel card.

On long-distance trains, according to Russian laws in 2019, unaccompanied children can travel only if they are already 10 years old. Until then, travel is permitted if accompanied by a parent or guardian.

According to the rules of intercity transportation on long-distance trains, it is forbidden for children under 10 years of age to travel without being accompanied by parents or teachers.

As an exception, children can travel by rail if they are going to a general education institution, and there is no other way to get there.

If the trip is carried out by rail on suburban transport, then the child must be at least 7 years old to travel independently.

Children from 2-12 years old can travel with an accompanying adult or a passenger under 18 who has already reached legal capacity.

Is a power of attorney required? For transportation of children over 12 years old under the supervision of the carrier, a written application from parents or guardians will be sufficient.

Many are interested in how old you can ride a train without parents in Russia and can a child of 14 years old ride alone on a train?

If the child has already reached the age of 14, then he can travel independently, only he should present his passport. When boarding a railway transport of a child of 13 years old, confirmation of his age and identity in documentary form will be required.

To do this, it is enough to present a birth certificate in the original or a copy certified by a notary.

Can a child at the age of 16 ride trains on their own? Yes, such a minor can independently move to another city if he has a passport and a ticket.

Age is taken into account at the time of the trip, not the purchase of tickets. A child can purchase a ticket only after presenting an identity document.

When boarding a carriage, the conductor checks the ticket and a document proving his identity for any passenger. If there are benefits, a document entitling the right to benefits is presented.

If travel is carried out on a preferential travel pass, then with a passport the child must additionally present a certificate obtained at a school or other educational institution.

The certificate must contain the following information:

The cost of travel for children on railway transport

The fare depends on the age of the children, the ticket price is much lower than for the adult population, for example:

Children under 5 travel free of charge if the child does not occupy a seat, sharing it with an accompanying person. If the parent wishes to travel in a separate seat, then the ticket is issued in accordance with the fares for children.
Children 5-7 years old - according to children's tariffs.
Children over 7 years old ride at adult fares.

Even if children have reached the age when they are allowed to travel on their own, they should know the rules of conduct in transport and do not forget about safety, as sometimes unpleasant situations happen on trips.

In order to avoid tragic consequences or minimize them, the child should be explained the rules for the passage of minor children on a train without parents.

During the movement of railway transport, while on the platform, you should move to a safe distance. Railway tracks can only be crossed at specially equipped crossings.

When locating the crossing at the same level as the railroad tracks, make sure that there is no approaching train nearby.

It is not allowed and prohibited:

In addition to the standard safety rules, we suggest using the following tips:

It is very important to talk about safety with the child himself, because even an adult is not safe to ride on the train. The train may swerve at speed or stop abruptly.

Do not allow your child to walk around the carriages or get out of the carriage at a stop, he may get lost or fall behind the train. Forbid him to come into contact with suspicious strangers.

If there is a request for help, then let the baby better turn to a woman, especially if she is traveling with her children.

Finding out whether it is possible to send a child on a train alone, you can plan a trip for a child to visit his grandmother or on an excursion, but it is still better not to send children on a trip alone.

If such a need arose, then it is necessary to prepare for this trip with all responsibility, not only by preparing required documents but also paying attention to safety rules.

Remember that better than a parent, no one will follow the child and ensure his safety.

Sending a child alone is dangerous, even if he is already 10 years old, so try not to let him go without the need for one on long-distance trains!

It is worth remembering that transporting a child in the front seat is possible only in certain cases - subject to certain special rules. All of them will need to be carefully read in advance - this is the only way to prevent standard errors that may occur. It is worth noting that non-compliance with the rules for transporting children can cause serious trouble.

The use of a vehicle for the transport of passengers is carried out today most often. But it is worth remembering that this process has its own characteristics and nuances. All of these should be carefully reviewed.

It is important to note that this process has its own characteristics. This applies primarily to children. It must be remembered that the child must be appropriately placed.

Moreover, the fundamental factor for transportation is precisely age, as well as height and weight. There are certain rules for transporting children, especially for those who have not reached the age of 12 years. In case of violation, a fairly significant fine is imposed - 3 thousand rubles.

Moreover, such a fine will be assigned to all children in the car who are not fastened. At the moment, there are many different features.

It is important to familiarize yourself with all the legally defined rules related to the transportation of a child before proceeding with such transportation at all. This process has certain nuances, subtleties. It is best to familiarize yourself with all of them in advance.

This will avoid various problematic, difficult situations. First of all, fines. Moreover, it is not allowed to move further until the moment the violation is eliminated.

What it is

Using a vehicle today is associated with a certain danger. And not only for the driver himself and other road users. But also for those who are in the cabin as passengers.

That is why, before starting the movement, it is important to make sure that they are located safely. Special belts will be installed in the car interior in order to fix passengers. It is especially important to carefully consider the fixation of the child.

This procedure is carried out depending on his age as follows:

With a standard fixing strap.
In the armchair.
Otherwise, there are special restraints in the form of chairs.

The amount of the fine in case the child is not properly placed will be about 3 thousand rubles. With all the nuances, features of the procedure for the location of the child, you need to familiarize yourself.

It is very important to remember that today there are several different groups of chairs at once.

The choice in favor of a certain one must be made based on a number of important factors:

the age of the child;
his weight;
way of location in the car, fastening.

The safety of the child depends 100% on the correct positioning of the child inside the car.

In fact, it is possible to divide children transported in a car according to the way they are placed into the following main groups:

Up to 7 years.
From 7 to 12 years old.
Over 12 years.

It is also important to remember that it is strictly forbidden to carry a child on a motorcycle. A significant fine is also due for such a violation.

To whom does it apply

The issue of the size of the fine and the regime for imposing such is regulated precisely today.

According to this regulatory document, it is the driver who is primarily responsible for the appropriate placement of the child in the car, but it does not have to be a parent. Accordingly, the traffic police officer will issue a fine to the driver of the vehicle.

Especially in this sense, taxi drivers need to be careful. Often, they receive fines just for the lack of a special chair for transporting children. The passengers themselves, before calling a taxi, should make sure that there will be special equipment for transporting children.

It is worth noting that recently the traffic police have the right to stop drivers for a scheduled check of documents:

at stationary posts;
on the road - even if there were no violations.

That is why, before carrying out the process of transporting a child, you need to make sure that it is properly positioned. Another important point- It is possible to place a child after 12 years in the front seat.

And it doesn't require a chair. At the same time, up to this age, the child must be fixed in a special chair. And for placement in the front seat, you will definitely need to turn off the airbag.

The main reason for this is injury risk. If this device in a collision saves an adult from more serious injuries than a broken or even broken nose, then a pillow flying out at a speed of several hundred kilometers per hour can simply kill a child on the spot.

There is a wide range of strict rules for placing a child in the front seat, even with restraints. It is best to familiarize yourself with all such rules in advance. This is the only way to avoid many difficult and even difficult moments.

Separately, you need to deal with groups of special seats for children - which should be placed in the car to fix the child.

For 2019, all child seats are divided into the following main groups:

Group number	Body weight of the child, kg	Age, number of years	Distinctive points of the holding device
0	0 to 10	0-1	when holding the child, a special fastening belt will be used that passes through the middle of the body. The cradle can be used when folded - in this case, fixation is carried out simultaneously with a special three-point belt
0+	0 to 13	0-15	in this case, the child must be in a semi-lying position. It is possible to install the chair with its back relative to the movement of the vehicle
1	from 1 to 18	1-4	in such a design, special five-point belts will be used as a fixing device
2	from 15 to 25	3-7	These types of chairs are characterized by the ability to adjust the height of the back. The chair itself is fastened with the help of standard belts.
0	from 22 to 36	7-12	these chairs are supplied with a limiter for the upper strap of the belt. The backrest release option is also available on this restraint. The need for such an additional function may arise if the child grows out of such a chair.

It is necessary to deal with the question of at what age a child can ride in the front seat of a car. Since in the future this will avoid many difficulties, as well as problematic situations. With all the nuances, features you need to carefully read.

Since this will prevent many difficulties and problems. Knowledge of the legal norms will allow and compliance will allow you to avoid fines, as well as injuries to the child when transporting him by car.
