On early establishment Drivers of buses, trolleybuses, and trams on regular city passenger routes are entitled to an old-age insurance pension due to special working conditions.

Who can retire early

Men, upon reaching 55 years of age, and women, 50 years of age, acquire the right to receive a pension if they have worked as drivers of buses, trolleybuses, trams on regular city passenger routes for at least 20 and 15 years and have an insurance record of at least 25 and 20 years - respectively for men and women.

Early pensions are granted to such employees if they constantly carry out transportation on regular city routes throughout the full working day. This type of transportation includes regular routes passing within the city limits (another populated area), carried out by vehicles with an engine designed to transport passengers with a number of seats (in addition to the driver) of more than 8.

Regular passenger transportation includes transportation carried out at certain intervals along established routes with passengers boarding and disembarking at stops provided for on the route. In this case, the bus must depart on schedule, proceed through all intermediate checkpoints in a timely manner and arrive at the final destination on schedule, taking into account permissible deviations.

The specified information may be contained in a document such as a passport for the route. The route passport contains all the information that indicates that the route belongs to a regular city route (within the city) or to a route that is not classified as such, for example, a suburban route.

Work on urban passenger regular routes can be organized with semi-express, express, regular traffic modes, or a combination of these modes during the day. At the same time, the right to preferential pension provision such drivers will use only subject to documentary evidence of permanent and full employment (at least 80% of working time) on regular city passenger routes.

How to confirm your right to a preferential pension

The driver starts work based on the waybill. On the reverse side of the waybill there are details to fill out: departure time (as scheduled and actually) and arrival time (as scheduled and actually), on the basis of which you can calculate the actual time in hours of work of the driver on the line on regular city passenger routes for the month. The flight is considered completed without violating the schedule if the bus departed exactly on schedule, passed all intermediate checkpoints in a timely manner and arrived at the final destination of the route on schedule, taking into account permissible deviations. Based on the waybills, the driver's hours of work are calculated.

In the absence of waybills as a document on the basis of which it is possible to calculate the actual time in hours of work of the driver on the line on regular city passenger routes for a month, it is necessary to submit certificates from enterprises indicating documentary grounds (orders, personal accounts, statements of wages, collective agreements, etc.).

Who is not entitled to a preferential pension?

In this regard, there are no grounds for granting the right to early pension provision to bus drivers operating in route taxi service.

I have been working on a forklift for more than 20 years, the article talks about women special drivers. Technicians, but they don’t give us a preferential pension. WHY?

My husband worked for 25 years as a gas station driver, in agriculture, is he entitled to a preferential pension?

No, the text of the question does not indicate any of the circumstances that could serve as the basis for the appointment of an early insurance pension.

Who is entitled to preferential retirement now? I work as a driver in the far north and on the first grid (the depth of the quarry is over 150 meters). There used to be benefits, but what about now?

It is in this part that they are not going to change anything at the moment, everything remains the same as before - if you worked according to the specified grid, then the length of service will follow it. They are changing the retirement age, not the conditions of early pensions.

However, until now, the number of years is not an obstacle to driving a car: according to statistics, from January to June 2017, more than 3.5 thousand people over 60 years old received a license for the first time or opened a new category, and almost 180,000 exchanged previously received licenses pensioners.

Medical certificate

It can only be obtained from public or private hospitals that have a license to conduct driver examinations. According to the law, those who count on categories “M”, “A” or “B” must be examined by a therapist, ophthalmologist, psychiatrist and psychiatrist-narcologist. If the driver has a neurological disease, he may need a conclusion from a neurologist, who is included in the mandatory list for heavy truck drivers (along with an additional examination by an ENT doctor). A number of laboratory tests are also required to obtain a medical certificate.

Some drivers mistakenly believe that if there is no need to replace the license, then the medical certificate may not change for ten years. It's not like that at all. According to the order of the Russian Ministry of Health, for drivers of categories “A”, “B”, “C”, “D” and “E” a certificate is issued for two years. For those engaged in professional transportation, for persons under 21 years of age, and for those who have certain diseases - only for one year.

Feeling unwell is a reason not to go anywhere

And yet, even with a valid medical certificate and timely visits to doctors, poor health remains a decisive argument in favor of canceling the trip. The road is always stressful. While driving, the driver evaluates up to ten different factors: the quality of the road surface, indications of signs, markings, traffic lights, maintaining distance, speed, taking into account the movement of neighboring cars, etc. In addition, the driver must always be prepared for an emergency situation, for example, to use emergency braking or sharp turn. What if the pressure rises? Will fatigue overcome? Will the reaction speed, which is getting lower every year, let you down? In this regard, I recall the case of the famous TV presenter Nikolai Drozdov when, while driving, a woman suddenly appeared in front of his car. “My wife and I were approaching the house,” Nikolai Nikolaevich later said, “and I was about to turn into the courtyard behind the pedestrian crossing, I turned on the turn signal and drove slowly. She suddenly appeared in front of the car and walked without looking back. I saw her, but at first I thought that she would stop - this, of course, was my biggest mistake. When I realized that the woman was not stopping, I immediately slammed on the brakes. I don’t know what happened, but the car jerked sharply. Maybe because I caught the gas pedal with the edge of my boot.”

The traffic inspector hears the phrase “I don’t know what happened” in almost every accident. However, in the case of older people, such an excuse often indicates untimely detection of cognitive disorders, says Andrei Ilnitsky, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor, Head of the Department of Therapy, Geriatrics and Anti-Aging Medicine of the FMBA IPK: “The question of the possibility of driving a car for elderly people is now widely discussed in the world . However, all researchers agree that if a person is healthy, at any age he slightly loses his reaction speed: healthy older people are able to react normally and ensure normal safety on the road. But there is another problem. An elderly person may have various cognitive disorders, which in fact means a decrease in memory, a decrease in the ability to concentrate, and a decrease in reaction to emergency situations. Cognitive disorders occur against the background of various diseases, for example, against the background of high blood pressure or so-called neurodegenerative diseases of the brain. I repeat, natural age-related processes, such as, for example, a decrease in the content of myelin - the sheath of nerve fibers - slow down the conduction of impulses along nerve fibers, but do not reduce the quality of life and are not a contraindication to driving. The insidiousness of cognitive disorders is the possibility of a hidden course. They can appear suddenly in any stressful situation. Therefore, the question of the ability to drive a car in old age should be decided on the basis of not only an analysis of physical health, but also cognitive impairment.” Andrei Ilnitsky recommends that retired drivers with extensive experience and those who, due to various circumstances, only receive their license at the “third” age, always pay attention not only to their physical state of health, but also to psychological signs. After age 65, your doctor recommends an annual screening for cognitive impairment.

A simple way to identify incipient dementia is to “draw a clock.” On an empty dial you need to draw arrows indicating ten minutes past twelve. Many pensioners fail to cope with this simple task, although outwardly they look quite healthy and adequate. If the drawing does not work out, this is a reason to undergo a diagnosis of cognitive disorders, which will show whether a person can drive a car or not.

Working in retirement… while driving

Old-age pensions were introduced in the USSR in 1932 and were intended for women from 55 years old, men from 60. For the majority of citizens, this retirement age has not changed today, but paying for “old age” does not always suit the pensioner, and often there is still enough strength for in order to continue working. Leading analyst of the expert center "Traffic without danger" Elena Borisenko told AiF. Health” that in 2017, as part of the “Safe Driving Academy” training program for school bus drivers, a survey was conducted among almost 500 participants, where it turned out that the majority of the participating respondents were at retirement and pre-retirement age: 48% - from 51 to 60 years old, 16% are over 60. At the same time total experience The driving experience of many of these drivers ranged between 30 and 40 years: “In fact, all these people drive all the time. Before the training, they said that their many years of experience were quite enough to drive a car and they did not need any additional knowledge. However, at the end of the course, 97% of respondents noted that they received a lot of new skills that they did not possess before. For example, only a few completed the task of applying emergency braking the first time, but this is one of the most important skills on the road! Even at retirement age, the driver must remain in the continuous training system. This is very important, especially when it comes to organized bus transportation. In the first six months of 2017, in this segment, unfortunately, there has been an increase in the number of road accidents by almost 5%, and deaths in them by 33%.”

Taxi driving is another popular type of employment for retirees. And it has its advantages: an individual schedule, the ability to selectively accept orders, and a decent amount of time left over for grandchildren and gardening chores. But even here, not everything is simple. Especially in terms of taxi aggregator services that are popular today. They, of course, hire everyone who wants to work, including pensioners, but they are not responsible for anything. All possible “force majeure” situations are resolved by the taxi driver. A pensioner who decides to earn additional income with the help of aggregators must be extremely careful: until the owners of the taxi business are required to install tachographs in their work cars - devices that monitor the driver’s work and rest schedule, he needs to control himself independently. Drivers falling asleep while driving is also a big problem today.

Responsibility and health

Before you get behind the wheel, listen to how you feel. Remember: a good driver is a responsible and healthy man. And if this is so, then what is age? A common number on a passport.

ABOUT early retirement drivers in detail June 05, 2015 Drivers of buses, trolleybuses and trams employed on regular city routes can retire earlier if a number of important conditions are met. According to the NHS research service. The most popular profession sought by Novosibirsk residents in May of this year was that of a driver, including in public transport. It is worth noting that some representatives of this profession have the right to early assignment of an old-age insurance pension. This category includes drivers of buses, trolleybuses, and trams employed on regular city routes. The listed citizens can retire earlier than the generally established retirement age: men at 55 years old, and women at 50. But for the right to early retirement to arise, a number of important conditions must be met. First of all, they need, like all citizens, to “collect” at least 30 during their entire working life. pension coefficients(subject to transitional provisions). The second condition for the assignment of a “preferential” pension is the length of the insurance period in the relevant jobs. So a man in general insurance experience at 25 years old must have worked as, for example, a bus driver on a city route, for at least 20 years. Women must have a total insurance experience of 20 years, and at least 15 years in the relevant types of work. The basis for granting the right to pension benefits to drivers of buses, trolleybuses or trams is full-time work only on regular city passenger routes. For bus drivers, the period of work is included in the required special experience when employed in bus regular urban passenger transportation. This fact must be documented. Orders for appointment as a driver of regular city passenger routes, waybills, personal accounts, pay slips, collective agreements and other documents containing the necessary information are considered as supporting documents. Regular urban passenger transportation includes transportation on a regular route that runs within the city limits; the traffic schedule on such a route is approved and agreed upon with local authorities in the interests of all city residents. On such routes, transportation is carried out at certain intervals according to a schedule with passengers boarding and disembarking at stops provided for on the route. The bus must proceed to all intermediate checkpoints on the route according to the schedule. Urban passenger bus transportation includes regular transportation, which is carried out by a vehicle intended for the transportation of passengers, with a number of seats (in addition to the driver) of more than 8. Work on urban passenger regular routes can be organized with semi-express, express or regular traffic modes or combined during the day the indicated modes. Such drivers enjoy the right to pension benefits subject to documentary confirmation of the requirements for city passenger regular bus routes. Drivers working on suburban, intercity, specialized routes, as well as drivers carrying out custom transportation of passengers on routes other than regular city routes, or drivers of departmental transport transporting enterprise employees are not entitled to pension benefits. If, during working hours, along with work on regular city passenger routes, a bus driver combines work on suburban routes or carries out custom transportation on routes not classified as regular city routes, then the question of his right to early assignment of a pension is decided depending on what percentage working time consists of work that gives the right to this pension. If it is documented that employment on regular city passenger routes is at least 80% of the working time, then in this case they can be considered employed in jobs that give the right to early pension provision. When recording working hours in total work time, confirming the employment of bus drivers on regular city passenger routes, is determined based on the results of the month. The working time for a month includes the total time of work on the line on a regular city route, time for carrying out preparatory and final work, conducting pre-trip and post-trip medical examinations, eliminating operational faults of the bus while working on the route, and scheduled maintenance. In addition, periods of work of drivers on regular city passenger routes after January 1, 2013 are counted towards special length of service, taking into account which the right to an early old-age pension is determined, only if the employer pays insurance premiums at additional rates. After a special assessment of working conditions has been carried out at the workplace, periods of work will be counted towards special experience only if, based on the results of the special assessment, a harmful class of working conditions is established at the driver’s workplace.

Most recently, the Moscow authorities supported the proposal to evacuate vehicles with a “disabled person” sign, which was placed illegally on the windshield.

In particular, according to the head of the capital’s transport department, Maxim Liksutov, such cars can be evacuated.

Russia may soon introduce serious punishment for those who illegally use the privileges of citizens with limited mobility. The fine for motorists who park their vehicles in spaces for people with disabilities ranges from 3,000 to 5,000 rubles.

Currently in Moscow, 10% of parking spaces are allocated for people with disabilities. Recently, the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Issues social development Leonid Pechatnikov proposed to evacuate cars illegally parked in parking lots for the disabled.

The issue of punishment for illegal placement of a “disabled person” sticker is also being resolved.

Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development Leonid Pechatnikov made a proposal to evacuate cars parked illegally in parking lots for the disabled. Lawyers identify several difficulties in this situation:

• Check the validity of the sticker when the driver is present in the car. Then - yes, every disabled person has a supporting document with him. This is a certificate, after looking at which the inspector can make sure that the sticker is legal.
• In the case of parking a “disabled” car, it is almost impossible to prove legality or illegality. Imagine: a car with a sticker is parked in a place designated for disabled people. There is no driver. Don't wait for him for several hours. And what, then they will give him a fine, simply because of suspicions that he theoretically may not be disabled? But this is nonsense. People will appeal the fines endlessly. As for creating a unified base, this is also not easy. A person who has a disability needs to have it confirmed every few years. And if it was deregistered (this happens), how quickly will it be removed from the database? Therefore, now the proposal rather raises a lot of questions.”

It should be noted that citizens who brazenly pretend to be disabled people take advantage of disabled people.

The effect of these signs that are violated by “pseudo-disabled people”: 3.2 “Movement is prohibited”, 3.3 “Movement of mechanical vehicles”, 3.28-3.30 “Parking is prohibited”, 3.29 “Parking is prohibited on odd-numbered days”, 3.30 “Parking is prohibited on even-numbered days” does not apply to vehicles driven by disabled people of groups I and II or transporting such disabled people.

Many disabled people drive under these signs without fear. Especially sign 3.2 “No movement”, and others mentioned above.

So, drivers with disabilities must install a “Disabled Person” identification sign on their cars, optionally on the front or rear window. This applies primarily to disabled people of groups I and II or those transporting them.

Now let’s look at the signs listed above, what they mean and what they free you from.

The traffic rules of the Russian Federation for disabled drivers of groups I and II or those transporting them do not apply road signs “Traffic is prohibited”, “Motor vehicles are prohibited”, “Parking is prohibited”, “Parking is prohibited on odd days of the month” and “Parking is prohibited” on even days of the month." There are also additional information signs - “Disabled Persons”. Please note: in the description of sign 8.17 only vehicles with the identification sign “disabled” are indicated; there is not a word about the disabled themselves. This means that violation of the requirements of this sign consists precisely in parking a vehicle without an identification sign. The Basic Provisions for the admission of vehicles to operation and the responsibilities of officials to ensure road safety state that such an identification mark is installed at will, “Except for persons with disabilities” and the corresponding markings. The “Disabled Persons” sign under the “Parking Place” sign says that its effect applies only to motorized wheelchairs and cars with the “Disabled Person” identification sign. The “Except for Disabled Persons” sign indicates that any sign does not apply to motorized wheelchairs and cars driven by people with disabilities. Only driver candidates should know the following: examinations for citizens with disabilities who, for medical reasons, are allowed to drive vehicles are carried out in special cars with additional structures. Provides them educational institution. Currently, the Russian State Traffic Inspectorate is preparing a number of regulatory legal acts introducing changes to the federal law“On Road Traffic Safety”, Rules for passing qualifying exams and issuing driver’s licenses in order to optimize the procedure for allowing disabled people to drive a car, as well as significantly simplify for them the procedures for obtaining services at the traffic police.

The following cannot be applied to disabled people:

• deprivation of the right to drive (except for cases of driving while intoxicated, refusal to undergo an examination or leaving the scene of an accident);
• administrative arrest for disabled people of groups I and II.

All other requirements of both traffic rules and the Code of Administrative Offenses apply to disabled people in full.

Do people with disabilities have the right to free transportation?

Federal Law dated August 22, 2004 No. 122-FZ from the Law dated November 24, 1995 No. 181-FZ “On Social Protection of Disabled Persons in the Russian Federation” excluded the provision granting disabled people the right to receive specialized vehicles free of charge.

As we see, laws prescribe significant benefits for people with disabilities, as well as for persons transporting people with disabilities.

Traffic police officers have only one opportunity to determine whether the owner of the car is a person who has the ability to park his car under prohibitory signs in the absence of the driver, this is sign 8.17 in front and behind the car.

Thus, if the driver of the vehicle is a disabled person of group I or II, but has not installed sign 8.17, then the traffic police officer issues a fine and sends the car to the impound lot justifiably.

What does the law tell us about installing these signs on a car?

We open the “Basic provisions for the admission of vehicles to operation and the responsibilities of officials to ensure road safety”, approved by Government Decree of October 23, 1993 No. 1090 ON ROAD TRAFFIC RULES, and read the following in paragraph 8:

At the driver's request, identification marks can be installed:

“Doctor” - in the form of a square of blue color(side 140 mm) with an inscribed white circle (diameter 125 mm), on which a red cross is applied (height 90 mm, stroke width 25 mm) - in front and behind cars driven by physician drivers;

“Disabled” - in the form of a square yellow color with a side of 150 mm and a black image of the road sign symbol 8.17 - in front and behind motor vehicles driven by disabled people of groups I and II, transporting such disabled people or disabled children.

As you know, “Disabled” stickers are sold freely in all automobile stores. What limits drivers from deceiving the inspector by installing such a sign on their car?

The answer is simple - nothing.

The list of documents that the driver must present to the traffic police inspector is stated in 2.1.1 of the traffic rules, but there are no documents confirming the presence of a disability there. This obvious “hole” in the law makes it possible to obtain obvious advantages over other drivers.

Many drivers refer to the fact that this sign can be installed not only by disabled people, but also by persons transporting disabled people. However, this also most often will not work if the traffic police officer suspects fraud on the part of the driver. If you are in this moment Do not transport a person with a group I or II disability and do not expect his arrival any minute, you will most likely be fined. If there are any objections on your part, the court will sort it out.

Thus, the presence of an obvious “hole” in the law does not always work in practice. A decent driver will never take advantage of the misfortune of a particular category of citizens. The attitude towards violators of this kind both from the traffic police officers, and from the judicial authorities, and from other road users will always be unambiguous.

Nowadays they issue disabled people's personal badges, on which everything is indicated: full name, group, and for which it is valid. So, who wouldn't put on a disabled person's badge.

The article was written by an ignoramus. There are legal errors.

Hello. And what kind of disabled people of groups 1 and 2 and disabled children (carrying them) can stick the “Disabled” sign on their glass and enjoy benefits? After all, there are people with disabilities not only due to the musculoskeletal system, but also various others (general disease, neurology, gastrointestinal tract, cancer, psychiatry, etc., etc.).

I don’t have a right leg above the knee, I need prosthetics, they gave me group 3 indefinitely. Did I break my stump? Is walking on crutches without a prosthesis a THIRD THING?

I still have a question. What to do with a group 3 disabled person who has a free parking permit and the sign cannot be used. They can tow your car and then prove that you are disabled.
