Administrative responsibility of parents or other legal representatives of minors as a means of preventing child road traffic injuries

The article analyzes the issues of regulatory justification and practical implementation of the possibility of bringing parents or other legal representatives to administrative responsibility provided for in Part 1 of Art. 5.35 of the Code of Administrative Offences of the Russian Federation in cases related to the parental permissiveness or non-compliance of the parents with the requirements of the law in the field of road safety. The authors come to the conclusion that such acts should not be considered as a completed offense, but as a reason for conducting an appropriate inspection and possible initiation of an administrative offense case, provided that there is a factual basis. An algorithm is proposed for the actions of the traffic police officials in cases of identifying offenses in the field of road traffic resulting from non-fulfillment or improper fulfillment of parental duties.
