A huge problem for modern drivers is such a thing as a fine for expired rights. Honestly, some citizens are not in a hurry to change their driver’s license if necessary. Hoping for "maybe they will not catch." Nevertheless, this is not worth doing. Expired rights are a violation of the law. And it is punishable. Not criminally, but in some cases there may be exceptions. For example, special "deviators" can either be deprived of their rights altogether (for a certain period), or even given conditional term. And, strangely enough, such cases occur quite often. The penalty for expired rights in any situation will need to be paid. Otherwise, you will not have any opportunity to drive a vehicle. But in what cases, specifically, a driver's license is considered "expired"? How to change it? All this will be discussed now.
About delay
If a driver’s license is expired, what penalty will the driver have to pay? More about this later. To begin with, it is worthwhile to find out in which cases your certificate may turn out to be "inoperative." There are not many cases here, but it is worth considering them.
Firstly, a replacement is necessary after changing your last name. Actual for girls who have married. If you drive with the same license, you will have to pay a staff for expired rights. Despite the fact that by the time indicated on the document, it is still valid.
Secondly, this, as it is not difficult to guess, the expired term of "work" is right. At the moment, a driver's license is made for 10 years. And after it will have to be changed. Otherwise, you should consider what penalty for expired rights to pay if you are “caught”. In principle, the delay will “pop up”. And here from paying the fine is no longer "get out."
Thirdly, damage and loss of a document is the basis for replacing a driver’s license. In this case, you will pay a corresponding fine to the state treasury, but not for delay, but for damage. If you lose your rights, you just need to pay for the process of issuing the document. More about this later.
Does everyone pay
Penalty for a ride with expired rights does everyone pay or not? Honestly, the situation here is quite ambiguous. But with the same result. And this is the full payment of the fine. Sooner or later, the driver’s license will still have to be changed. And at this moment you will be "caught" in the illegal use of the document. From this the amount of the penalty will only increase.
True, it turns out to avoid paying for some time. Only then the result is not the best. And you act at your own peril and risk. After all, no one knows when exactly they will stop you on the road, and they will also be asked to present a driver’s license. The faster you pay a penalty for an expired driver’s license, the better. The amount will be less than with the "delay" of the hour of reckoning. In general, it is preferable not to bring the situation to delays. But if this happened, it’s better to hurry with payment. No debts - no problems.
Specific amounts
What is the penalty for driving with expired rights you have to pay? Here the situation is quite ambiguous. And it is decided purely individually. Depending on each specific case.
For example, legally fine can be avoided only by changing the name. In this case, you are given 1 month to submit a request for an exchange. Of course, the faster you do this, the better. And driving itself is preferable to avoid the indicated period of time. Well, or carry a marriage certificate (original and copy), as well as documents confirming the filing of a request for a replacement civil passport.
Otherwise, there will be no exceptions. The penalty for expired rights will have to be paid in any case. The minimum amount for today is 5,000 rubles (if you are "caught" on the road, you can "get off" with 500 rubles, but immediately deal with replacing the document). Quite a lot, isn't it? But maybe even more. The maximum here is 30,000. And to this amount is added the size of the penalty, which is charged for delayed fines and rights. Not a good prospect, is it? Therefore, to delay the moment of reckoning is not necessary in any case. Even if you really want not to pay this kind of fee. If you have expired rights, a replacement penalty will still be imposed. Not on the day of delay, so at the time of filing the request to change the document.
Additional expenses
But do not rush to rejoice when you have paid the appropriate fee in the form of a fine. This does not end with the replacement of a driver’s license. Why? The thing is that the penalty for expired rights is only the first stage that remains to be passed. After that, you will have to pay a fee for issuing a new driver’s license.
For 2016, it is 2,000 rubles. Not too much compared to the fine, which can "fall on your head." Without a paid receipt (fee), you will not be able to submit a request for an exchange of a document. So, a new fine and penalties. After payment of state debt, you will be given a certain period of time to replace the certificate. Within the specified period, it will be necessary to pay the state fee.
Where to pay
We decided on the amount of fines - the exact data is given to you purely individually in each individual case. But now where to pay this debt? Not everyone understands where to go.
Fortunately, there are plenty of alternative solutions here. For example, traffic police fines for expired rights are paid in the branch of the corresponding unit. What does it mean? In the traffic police branch at the place of your registration. Most often, such institutions have special payment terminals. Or generally there are cash desks. There is nothing difficult in this matter.
Also, any citizen can pay a penalty for expired rights via the Internet. There are several solutions here. And you are able to choose for yourself what is right for you. You can, for example, refer to the State Services resource. Not the most popular, but quite effective method. In addition, "Payment of public services" is in great demand. Next, an electronic wallet or Sberbank Online. As you can see, paying a penalty for expired rights is no more difficult than any other payment. Do not forget about classical methods. It:
- banks;
- ATMs
- payment terminals.
How exactly to bring the idea to life, decide for yourself. The main thing here is the speed of payment. Remember: the faster, the better for you. Although they will give you a certain period for implementation, there is no need to “delay” it. It’s better to pay immediately so that there are no problems in the future.
Classics of the genre
Further, a little about how to pay the appropriate fee. In order to pay the fine, you will need to know the details of the recipient, present a receipt and an identity document. It'll be enough.
Payment at banks and traffic police is perhaps the easiest. It is necessary to present the relevant documents at the cash desk and give the indicated amount, taking into account the entire penalty. After you receive a receipt for payment and save it. Nothing difficult or special. Therefore, emphasis on this point is not worth it. It is better to pay attention to more modern and complicated methods. For example, using an electronic wallet to pay a fine for expired rights.
Internet to the rescue
Well, now, perhaps, we can talk about modern payment methods. If you have an electronic wallet with the status "formal" (for example, "WebMoney"), you can use it for cashless payments. This technique will save you from unnecessary paperwork.
How to act? You must go through authorization, and then look at the "Services" - "Fines" section. Here, find information about yourself (using the TIN, for example), and then select the appropriate penalty. It will be marked as “expired rights”. If there is a penalty, the corresponding line will appear below. It can be either paid immediately, or as a separate payment. Enter the data about the recipient and yourself, and then confirm the action. After that, the indicated amount will be debited from your account, and you will get the opportunity to print the check. It is preferable to do this.
Replacement Documents
So, we have settled our debts. What's next? Now you need to change your driver’s license. For this, you will have to prepare certain documents. Which ones? There are not so many of them. But you still need to try. To replace an expired driver’s license, you must bring:
- passport;
- receipt of payment of a fine;
- state duty receipt;
- statement;
- old rights;
- documents of registration at the place of residence;
- medical certificate (go through a special commission).
Basically, this is the entire list that may be needed. Sometimes they may require a driver’s card and a certificate of examination certification. When changing your name, you must present documents confirming the changes.
Total
It is easy to see that paying a fine for an expired driver’s license is a matter that in each case will have different costs. Try to avoid such situations altogether.
Timely payment of fines and the replacement of documents within the specified time indicate the integrity of the citizen. No bank will agree to grant a loan, for example, to someone who has debt to the state. Consider all this before you drive with expired rights.
