Features of administrative responsibility for road safety violations

Problem setting. At present, road traffic is one of the main elements of modern states. Using different types of vehicles, people have the opportunity to move faster, do freight, thereby facilitating their work in all areas of activity. This contributes to the development of economic activity, social activity and road infrastructure, but at the same time there are a number of negative consequences associated with traffic injuries, economic and social damage caused by road accidents. Today, about 7,000 people die in road accidents each year and nearly 4,000 are injured; every 12 minutes there is a car accident; almost every 1.5 hours a person dies. In Ukraine, the statistics of road accidents for the period from 01.01.2021 to 31.05.2021 amounted to 70774 – 22.2%. It is possible to reduce these indicators under the condition of introduction of the state program of the correct design of roads, and also increase of administrative responsibility for violation of traffic rules. And what do we see when we look at the statistics of the last five years? And the fact that accident statistics are really scary, and is constantly growing. Law enforcement officers are constantly publishing regular collections of data on road accidents in the country. The tables are full of red numbers, the color of which indicates the deterioration of basic safety indicators. Target of research is a comprehensive scientific study of administrative liability for violations of traffic legislation, its features, as well as improvement by amending legal acts will positively affect the development of transport – road complex of Ukraine and contribute to strengthening road safety as a component of national security. The main purpose of the study is to lay the groundwork for administrative liability for road safety offenses on the basis of a comprehensive analysis of scientific sources, generalization of legal material and law enforcement practice. The object of this work is public relations, which are formed in the process of ensuring administrative liability for violations of legislation in the field of road safety in modern conditions. Analysis of recent researches and publications. Issues of road safety in different volumes are reflected in studies conducted by: O. Bandurka, T. George, D. Medvedev, Yu. Piroshkova and others. At the general level, the concept of “road safety” as a component of public safety was studied by A. Basov, В. Glushkov, M. Inshin, O. Copan and others. These scientists analyzed the problem of improving the administrative and legal responsibility of road safety and proposed to improve measures that will ensure the safety of all road users. However, the relevance of this topic is due to the constant updating of Ukrainian legislation, based on the provisions of which is the rule-making regulation of this area of public relations. Article`s main body. The article defines the features of administrative responsibility for violation of road safety. The author considers changes in the legislation regulating administrative responsibility in the field of road safety. The analysis of the number of road traffic accidents (RTA) and their consequences over the past five years was also carried out. The study of this problem is relevant, since the analysis of static data on the number of road accidents indicates a low level of traffic safety and a high accident rate on highways. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Based on the above, we can conclude that the current legislation in the field of administrative liability for violations of road safety is quite extensive and provides for various types of administrative penalties aimed at saving lives and reducing socially dangerous accidents. Also, the legislative definition of the term “traffic” is not provided either in the Code of Administrative Offenses or in the Law of Ukraine “On Road Traffic”. I propose to define and legislate the concept of “road safety” as a set of factors and mechanisms that regulate legal relations, establish responsibility, describe the typical mechanisms and rules of conduct of all road users in the state.

PECULIARITIES OF IMPROVEMENT OF NATIONAL LEGISLATION ON ADMINISTRATIVE RESPONSIBILITY

The article reveals the main directions of improving the national legislation on administrative responsibility. It has been established that the current administrative-tort legislation of Ukraine does not meet the needs of today, either in content or in form. Its norms require a radical revision, and the systematization of legislation on administrative responsibility is the only way to improve the work of legal entities empowered to bring individuals to administrative responsibility. The following problems of a theoretical and practical nature that impede the improvement of administrative tort law: 1) lack of a clear understanding of the legal nature of proceedings in cases of administrative offenses; 2) tendencies towards refusal from the synthesis of material and procedural norms in the codified normative legal act on administrative responsibility; 3) duplication in the administrative-tort legislation of ideas, principles and provisions that ensure the effectiveness of criminal liability; 4) artificial limitation in the legislation of the circle of persons to whom administrative penalties can be applied; 5) imperfection of the procedure for bringing a person to administrative responsibility; 6) ineffective and unreasonably extended system of administrative penalties; 7) an imperfect and ineffective system of bodies authorized to bring persons to administrative responsibility. It was argued that administrative responsibility is, in fact, a prompt reaction of the state or other authorized bodies to violations of the law, and therefore “simplified proceedings” should be widely used in addition to “ordinary proceedings”. However, over the years of Ukraine’s independence, “simplified proceedings” have gradually disappeared from the law enforcement activities of administrative and judicial bodies. It is emphasized that the specificity of administrative responsibility lies in the fact that the subject, who has the right to initiate an administrative offense case, is often the subject considering the case on the merits. Therefore, knowledge of the material part of administrative tort law helps such a subject to determine the preliminary qualification of an offense, and knowledge of its procedural part – to consider the case and impose on a person one of the types of administrative penalties. It has been proved that “simplified proceedings” should be the key procedural form of bringing persons to administrative responsibility. It is noted that the codification of administrative tort law is a painstaking and systematic work in which well-known scientists who have been working on the problem of administrative responsibility for many years should participate.

THE COMPOSITION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFENCE AND THE PROBLEMS OF ITS QUALIFICATIONS

The administrative-legal science pays a great attention to the study of administrative offences’ qualification. When analyzing any part of an administrative offence, the issues of qualification always take the lead. This paper focuses on the most controversial and at the same time practically important issues. The composition of an administrative offence is a legal basis for the qualification of an administrative offence in accordance with a specific article of the law establishing administrative responsibility.The structure of an administrative offence is a combination of four elements: the object, the objective side, the subjective side and the subject, the presence of which is necessary and sufficient for the recognition of a socially harmful act as an administrative offence. These elements are called necessary because they must be present in any case when deciding whether to bring to administrative responsibility. In the absence of at least one of these elements, a person cannot be held administratively liable.In this paper, the composition of an administrative offence is considered as the basis for the qualification of administrative offences. In connection with the mentioned above, the problems’ study of administrative offences’ qualification, necessitates the further theoretical study of issues related to its concept, purpose, and implementation.
