Even those who are accustomed to constantly driving cars leave their vehicles from time to time and automatically become standard pedestrians. If there is a desire to violate the traffic rules, it is worth remembering not only about the possible imposed fines for pedestrians, but about the danger to health and life.
Who are pedestrians
It should be noted right away that this category includes persons who are outside the vehicle on the road or on a pedestrian or bicycle path and do not work for them. Pedestrians are equated to persons moving in wheelchairs without an engine, driving a bicycle, moped, motorcycle, carrying a sled, trolley, baby or wheelchair, as well as using roller skates, scooters and other similar means for movement.
Fines for pedestrians for traffic violations

How to find out and pay a fine
However, the law is more favorable to pedestrians than to drivers who receive considerable fines for traffic violations. Pedestrians are prohibited from ignoring traffic fines. The offender is obliged to pay the amount in 2 months. After this period, the case is transferred to the Bailiffs Service.
You can view traffic fines by last name in the traffic police department. The passport unit will find information on pedestrian fines. Payment of penalties is not difficult. When making such a payment, the receipt number is taken from the decree number that was issued to a pedestrian for a traffic violation.
