The Verkhovna Rada plans to increase penalties for parking in spaces reserved for people with disabilities
A bill has been introduced in the Verkhovna Rada aimed at strengthening the protection of the rights of people with disabilities to use designated parking spaces. The need for this has grown due to the increasing number of veterans and civilians with disabilities.
To combat violations, the bill proposes introducing a digital reporting mechanism. Witnesses will be able to submit photos and videos via the Unified State Web Portal for Electronic Services, specifying the exact time, date, and geolocation. This will allow for the prompt penalization of drivers even for short-term parking violations that police or inspectors previously did not have time to document in person.
The initiative also calls for increasing fines for illegal parking, the unauthorized use of the “Driver with a Disability” designation, and the improper provision of special parking spaces.
