• Project Goals

  The Platon toll collection system was created to ensure the procedure for collecting tolls from vehicles with a maximum permissible mass of more than 12 tons to compensate for the damage they cause to the road surface.

  The funds received are received daily by the Federal Budget of the Russian Federation and are directed to ensure the maintenance of roads, finance construction and repair work and improve road traffic. transport infrastructure.

  The implementation of the project will ensure the achievement of the target parameters of the program "Development of the transport system of Russia (2010 - 2020)" (subprogram - "Roads") while reducing the burden on the state budget, as well as to achieve an additional improvement in the transport and operational condition of federal roads.

• Documents and regulations

  The following documents and regulations are the grounds for the creation of a fee collection system

  2. Payment for the actual distance traveled

  The owner of the vehicle pays a fee for compensation for harm for each kilometer of the route along the federal highway, using one of the options for calculating the fee:

  • issuance of a one-time route map;
  • use of the On-Board Unit.

  Issuing a route card provides for the payment of a fee for a one-time route.

  When using an on-board unit, write-off Money from the settlement record of the owner of the vehicle to the payment occurs automatically, which eliminates the presence of errors due to the influence of the human factor.

  3. Use of satellite navigation systems

  Positioning of vehicles with a maximum authorized mass of more than 12 tons is carried out using on-board devices that provide reception of signals from the global navigation satellite systems GLONASS and GPS.

  4. Monitoring the movement of vehicles and identifying vehicles weighing over 12 tons

  Payment control is carried out by stationary and mobile control systems:

  • frame structures with attachments, which are located above the bed of the federal highway;
  • mobile control - cars with special equipment.

  5. The issuance by Rostransnadzor of decisions on administrative violations for driving on federal roads without paying a fee for vehicles with a maximum permissible mass of more than 12 tons

  Center for Automated Fixation administrative offensĕ Rostransnadzor based on automatic photo and video recording identifies violators on federal highways for issuing decisions on an administrative offense.

• Description of the system

  To pay the toll, the Truck Owner must register himself and the vehicle with the Toll System Registry.

  • in cash at partner agency terminals: Qiwi, Sberbank, Moskovsky credit bank, Eleksnet, in the network of salons Euroset
  • by using mobile phone using the payment service MOBI.Money

In the fall of 2015, the Platon system began to function. In accordance with Federal Law No. 257-FZ of November 8, 2007, owners of large-tonnage vehicles must pay compensation to the state for damage to Russian federal roads. Questions began to appear often after the introduction of the Plato system - which cars fall under it, and which vehicles are exempt from the "fee per ton".

On which roads does the Plato system work?

If it's about toll highways, then the “fee for tons” does not apply to them at all, regardless of the mass and dimension of the car. These roads are the exception. If the vehicle moves along federal highways, then the fee charged in the Platon system is sent to the state budget.

The proceeds are used to restore the roadway and develop the country's transport infrastructure. But the fee is charged not from all cars, but only from some of its categories. That is why freight carriers and other business representatives have a question, which cars are covered by Plato.

Federal law clearly states that vehicles with a maximum permissible mass of more than 12 tons, in without fail must be entered in the Plato System Register. Owners of such cars must go through the registration and verification procedure, and then pay for the passage of these cars by federal highways.

The maximum allowable weight of the vehicle is understood as the weight of the equipped car together with the driver, his passengers and the transported cargo. This parameter is specified in several documents at once:

• PTS machines;
• OTTS (issued at the time of car certification and confirms compliance with established standards);
• certificate of BKTS (confirms the safety of the operation of the machine and its compliance with the standards established by law).

The technical regulations provide for the assignment of such large-tonnage trucks to a special category trucks– N3. The same definition is used in the traffic police to record and compile statistical data.

What types of funds do not fall under the Plato system?

The federal law is very clear that trucks with a maximum authorized weight of 12 tons must be registered in the Platon system. The list of such vehicles is huge. It includes cars of domestic and foreign production. It doesn't matter if it's KamAZ, MAZ, Renault, Man or Daf.

The company has no influence on the correlation of cars to the system. Plato was developed for trucks that seriously affect quality pavement due to the large mass. The owners of some types of vehicles were, however, exempted from paying the fee. These are the following machines:

• military vehicles owned by the state;
• self-propelled vehicles with weapons on board;
• specialized transport that allows you to move weapons;
• military Combat vehicles and property;
• vehicles used to move people (an exception to this category are vans that can be used to transport various goods and passengers);
• vehicles used by specialized services (police, firefighters, employees of medical institutions providing ambulance, and some others - they all have devices on board that allow them to give signals to participants traffic with sound and light).

To a greater extent, the Plato system affected truckers and freight carriers. But if any other organization has freight transport, which has the maximum permissible mass more than 12 tons, then the owner of such a vehicle must pay a fee for movement on federal highways.

It is necessary to pay for travel on federal highways, this can be done using the Platon on-board device. It is possible to pay for travel on the highways with it from 11/15/2015. Each owner of a car weighing over 12 tons can receive such a device.

Why is the Plato system needed?

Everyone knows that in our country there are toll roads. If you are going on a trip along such a highway and your car weighs more than 12 tons, then you need to purchase or get in special points an on-board device that pays for travel on a toll road.

Plato is a small device that is mounted on Windshield car using a special adhesive tape installed on the back, or vacuum suction cups included in the kit.

This device is made in Russia, it shows 6 indicators, namely:

1. Indicator of the battery charge built into the on-board device (it can work with it for up to half an hour);
2. Signal indicator - you can use it to find out if the device catches the operator’s signal;
3. Battery power;
4. Your balance indicator (shows whether there is enough money to pay for travel on the highway);
5. The indicator responsible for communication with the satellite;
6. Cell signal indicator.

Each bulb can glow green, yellow and red, depending on the status of what it is responsible for. Eg , current balance indicator is ongreen when funds are sufficient for more than 100 km, and yellow when less than 100 km away.

On-board device Plato turns on automatically, you do not have to configure it, it has just one button located in the middle. She is responsible for turning off the sound signal.

The device is powered by a cigarette lighter. But, if you suddenly need to turn it off, do not worry - the built-in battery will last for half an hour.

It is not difficult to deal with the device, because it is enough to connect the power supply. About all possible problems the on-board device will warn on its own - one or another indicator will light up.

How and where to get "Plato"

Typically, the on-board unit is installed in trucks. It tracks the path of the car along the federal highway using GPS navigation and charges a certain amount for each kilometer traveled.

In fact, all trucks weighing over 12 tons should be equipped with these devices, but in fact only about 350,000 flatbed trucks have been issued. This is due to the fact that obtaining them is a rather laborious and lengthy process.

For getting this device you need to register in the system on the site http://platon.ru by filling out the following:

• TIN, OGRN, KPP of the organization
• legal address of the company
• Bank details
• manager data (possibly a director or a manager representing the interests of the owner of the vehicle)
• Data on the document confirming the authority of the head
• Data of the head of the company

Verification and registration of a new account may take 15 to 20 days. After that, you can receive the Platon on-board device, you need to pay a visit to the company's office and conclude an agreement, which requires the following documents:

• Passport for individual;
• For legal entity you also need to add a registration document.

If necessary, the documents must be translated into Russian and notarized. In addition, if copies are used to conclude the contract, they must also be certified.

How to install the sideboard correctly?

As mentioned above, the installation of the bortovik takes a few minutes. You receive the device in a box, in addition to it, it also contains an instruction manual, a device passport, and, of course, Plato himself. Many users strongly recommend not to throw away or lose the box of contents.

So, to get started, you need:

• Carefully remove the device from the box;
• We process the place of attachment of the control unit;
• We are filming protective layer adhesive tape;
• We mount the device on the windshield;
• We connect it to the cigarette lighter.

In addition to the adhesive tape, you can also attach it to the suction cups that come with the kit. But, please note that some users do not advise using them, as they consider them to be of poor quality and unreliable.

In some cases, trucks no cigarette lighter ask what to do? Then, the owner of the car, you need to purchase
special adapter for 24V-12V, and connect it. Please note that this voltage is quite enough for an on-board device, for example, if the voltage is more than 32V, then it is strictly forbidden to use the control unit.

After starting the device, it is worth waiting up to 2 minutes until it catches a signal from the satellites and starts working. Each on-board vehicle is equipped with a battery, but the user is prohibited from making any manipulations with it, for example, opening the case or changing the battery.

Instructions and rules of operation

Each box has a personal number that matches the number on the device. It is strictly forbidden to transfer Plato to anyone, or to put it on another car, since each device is assigned to “its own” car. That is, it can only be used on one machine.

The Platon on-board unit operates at temperatures from -40 to +50, however, during a long stop, it is better to take the control unit with you if the temperature outside has dropped below -10 or rises above +25 degrees.

Before starting the car, remove the plug from the cigarette lighter, because when starting the engine, it may form high voltage, capable of disabling the BU. In addition, such damage is not covered under warranty.

The on-board device we are considering automatically withdraws a certain amount of money from the account of the car owner. Due to the fact that it determines your current route (using the Glonass and GPS systems), transmits data to the Platon system through mobile operators and automatically calculates the fare.

What to do in case of breakdown

Unfortunately, any device breaks sooner or later, in addition, there is always a chance to lose it somewhere, or, even worse, forget it. If something similar happened to you not on the way, then the actions should be as follows:

• Contact support center
• Register the loss of the device,
• Follow operator's advice

Do all of the above as soon as possible.

Much more often there are cases of breakdown and loss of the device on the road, if this situation happened to you - here's what you should do:

• Immediately stop the movement by making a stop;
• Contact the information center staff;
• Tell him about the situation, tell him your details.

After these steps, the support employee will offer you 2 ways out of the situation:

1. Get directions to your destination by determining your location;
2. Get directions to the nearest company support center to troubleshoot there.

If you continue your route without reporting a breakdown, you will be issued fine from 5,000 to 10,000 rubles. When warranty breakage you are entitled to a new device.

In Russia, from November 15, drivers of trucks weighing more than 12 tons will have to pay for each kilometer of federal roads traveled. It will control special system"Plato". The day before the adoption of the new rules, Minister of Transport Maxim Sokolov presented it in Rostov-on-Don. Radio Rostov journalist Maria Pogrebnyak, who was at the presentation, told Dozhd how the Platon system works and what drivers need to know about working with it.

From November 15 to February 29, 2016, drivers of cars weighing more than 12 tons will pay 1.53 rubles for each kilometer of federal roads travelled. The tariff will be changed from March 1, 2016: 3.06 rubles will be paid for one kilometer. These rules are valid until the end of 2018.

The presentation of the Platon system in Rostov-on-Don was not announced. A few days earlier, in forty regions of the country, truckers protested against new fare rules.

The fine for unpaid travel until May 2016 will be valid only in the Moscow region. After that, it will be introduced in other regions.

To work with Platon, drivers will have to send a package of documents to the address Email, which can be found on the website of the system. After that, the registration of the car will be confirmed. The driver will be able to choose how he will use the system. You can order a special on-board device that will record kilometers. Another option is to make a route map in the system that will calculate the route. After that, the calculated kilometers must be paid. To use Platon, a special current account must be opened.

In trucks, the on-board unit is connected to the cigarette lighter. Its indicator displays the balance, communication status and the number of satellites. The system calculates the kilometers traveled using satellite communications. Money is debited online, so the driver needs to top up the card balance before leaving.

According to Maxim Sokolov, all major retailers have already connected to the system. Earlier, the Guild of Logistics Operators said that after the launch of Platon, many carrier companies would be forced to suspend work, because they still did not understand how to work in the new conditions.

More than 400 thousand cars have registered in the Platon system.

Earlier, presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov said that Vladimir Putin is aware of the protests of truckers, but questions about them should be asked to the Ministry of Transport. In Rostov-on-Don, Maxim Sokolov commented on the truckers' strike, said Maria Pogrebnyak. The minister said that the protests were carried out only by unorganized private carriers, and this would not happen again. The journalist noted that Sokolov and the governor of the Rostov region Vasily Golubev presented the system quickly, they left only a short time for questions and left immediately after.

“The drivers themselves do not agree with this. In the office of "Platon" I was told that on November 15 some of them were not going to go on the route. Almost everyone I spoke to in the registration queue was critical of the system. For many participants, this amount is unbearable. In addition, some of them receive money from customers after their work, sometimes they are not paid at all immediately. It turns out that by new system drivers must pay the money before they receive it,” Maria Pogrebnyak told Dozhd.

The company "RT-Invest" will collect money Transport Systems". Its co-owner is the son of businessman Arkady Rotenberg, Igor Rotenberg. The state will pay for the services of this organization - annually transfer 10.6 billion rubles. The company entered into a concession agreement with the Federal road agency for 13 years.

The creation of the Platon system cost 29 billion rubles, 27 billion of which was a loan from Gazprombank, the rest of the money was the shareholders' own funds, the company's CEO Alexander Sovetnikov said in an interview with Kommersant.
