Rules for organized transportation of groups of children by bus. Rules for transporting children on the bus

The Russian code of laws contains rules that have been developed to ensure safety when transporting children in groups. These rules are approved relevant documents.

The rules for transporting children's groups include requirements for vehicles, the bus driver and the employee accompanying the children's group. These rules were developed by the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation.

Most often, a group of children is transported by bus. This could be an excursion or sending children to a summer camp. Parents deliver their child to the designated bus parking area and hand it over to the person who will subsequently accompany the minors on the trip.

If there is an excursion, then such a person is the class teacher. Children in Russia are considered to be citizens under 18 years of age. Therefore, there must be an accompanying person when high school students also go on a trip.

The teacher travels with the children, whom he will continue to educate in the camp owned by the kindergarten. It is difficult for one person to cope with small children, so there should be several of them.

If there is a shift at the summer camp in which a new children's group must be brought in, a full-time employee will accompany the trip.

Strict requirements are imposed on the transport in which children will be transported. Children are not allowed to travel on buses or cars that have faults, which must be checked.

The driver must undergo strict medical control before the trip. It is unacceptable not only for him to be in a not entirely sober state, but also simply to feel unwell. High blood pressure and lack of sleep on the eve of a trip can lead to an accident.

The Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation on the transportation of groups of children, as amended and supplemented, which is valid in 2019, regulates these conditions. The resolution specifies conditions only for transportation in an organized manner.

What it is

The notice states:

If transportation is carried out by no more than two buses and traffic police escort is not required, then the notification must contain:

• travel start date;
• details of the company organizing the upcoming trip;
• how many passengers under the age of majority are traveling, indicating their specific age;
• route with indications of planned stops;
• details of those accompanying the trip;
• make of the bus, its license plate number.

The driver must have a copy of the application with a traffic police record stating that they received information about the upcoming trip. Accompanying persons must ensure proper boarding and subsequent disembarkation of children.

Before landing you should:

1. Using the lists, check whether the data available there corresponds with the arriving children.
2. Gather arriving children in a safe location.
3. Organize the loading of children's things into the luggage compartment.
4. Check your hand luggage for compliance with the Baggage Transportation Rules.
5. Provide instructions to the children.

When conducting the briefing, the following issues should be covered:

• how to behave when the bus stops and when it is moving;
• how the procedure is carried out when boarding and disembarking the bus;
• behavior in case of emergency or health problems.

During a trip with a group, the accompanying person is obliged to monitor the health, behavior of children and the regularity of their nutrition. It is necessary to monitor the correctness of the route and, if there is a deviation, clarify these circumstances with the driver.

What is the punishment for violations?

Violation of the requirements prescribed by the rules of group transportation is an administrative violation. Both drivers and transportation organizers may be punished for this. This is stated in parts 3-6.

Recent changes in legislation have increased the amount of fines for the following violations:

Important aspects

For safety reasons, buses intended for transporting groups of children must have the identification sign “Transportation of Children.”

Transportation must be accompanied by a medical professional in cases where the duration of intercity transportation is more than 3 hours. Notification of the upcoming trip must be submitted to the traffic police two days or earlier.

Valera, Please!

Hello, I am interested in your opinion. A bus for transporting children must comply in terms of purpose and design with the technical requirements for transporting passengers. What do you think these requirements are and what regulations govern them?

Vadim, Hello.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find a regulatory document that would reveal the answer to the question you asked. If I come across such a document in the future, the article will be updated.

Good luck on the roads!

Alexander-700

If 11 children and 11 adults are traveling, will this be children's transportation?

Alexander, if children and adults are not related to each other (adults are not parents), then we are talking about organized transportation of children, because There are more than 8 children and there are no legal representatives on the bus.

Good luck on the roads!

Andrey-424

Hello. I plan to take 12 boys on my own initiative to St. Petersburg for the New Year holidays, without commercial activities. If I receive a notarized Consent to accompany a child from the parents, then I will become his legal representative for the duration of the Consent, therefore I will not need to draw up this whole bunch of papers, because this will not be considered transportation of an organized group of children. Am I thinking correctly? After all, as it is written in the explanation: “If transportation of minors is carried out accompanied by their legal representatives, then the requirements of the legislation on the organized transportation of children by bus do not apply to it.”

then I will become his legal representative for the duration of the Consent

Hello. No, you won't. The question is not about traffic rules, but about the Family Code. Possible “legal representatives” of the child are indicated there.

Thank you very much for the detailed information about the age at which children are considered to be transported. Or up to 16 years old or up to 18? I looked everywhere and couldn't find it. Now everything is clear! Is this information indicated somewhere in orders or regulations? And another question? Can an individual entrepreneur engaged in customized transportation without a license carry out organized transportation of children, taking into account that the bus complies with all technical regulations.

Andrey, Hello.

You cannot become a legal representative of a minor by proxy; to do this you need to adopt the child.

Good luck on the roads!

Irina, Family Code of the Russian Federation, Chapter 11, Article 54:

1. A child is a person who has not reached the age of eighteen years (the age of majority).

Good luck on the roads!

Thank you for your answer, everything seemed to be clear, but a question arose. It turns out that from March 1, all buses must have a license. The period for consideration of the application and receipt of a license is 120 days (i.e. until June 29, 2019). Is this true or not. Our trip is scheduled for April 19th. It turns out that we will not be able to travel without a license from the carrier. At the moment, the carrier does not yet have such a license. Please answer how to proceed here.

Leonid, if the carrier was engaged in the transportation of passengers or other persons before March 1, 2019, then he can continue this activity without a license until June 29, 2019. The issue is discussed in detail in.

Good luck on the roads!

Tatyana-186

Good day! Is it possible to transport preschoolers by school bus to kindergarten? If possible, then on what basis?

Tatiana, Hello.

The concept of "School bus" in traffic rules:

“School bus” is a specialized vehicle (bus) that meets the requirements for vehicles for transporting children established by the legislation on technical regulation and is owned by right of ownership or on another legal basis preschool educational or a general education organization.

That is, the concept itself suggests that the bus can be used to transport preschoolers. There are no restrictions on the transportation of preschool children at other traffic points.

Good luck on the roads!

Vyacheslav-108

To transport children, we are preparing a notification to the traffic police, a trip there in one car, back in another car with a week gap, how do I fill out the notification? In one notification, indicate information about two drivers - back and forth, or for each separately? and travel time (according to Google map) 3 hours 13 minutes. Do you need a list and dry? ration?

Vyacheslav:

1. In this case, you need to fill out 2 different notifications (for the trip there and for the trip back).

2. You create the traffic schedule. If in the end the travel time according to the schedule is more than 3 hours, then the buses will require dry rations, water and a corresponding list.

Good luck on the roads!

Natalya-213

Good afternoon Please clarify. The bus performed a one-time custom transportation of children. The bus is not a school bus, it was hired from a carrier. All rules of resolution No. 1177 were observed. But the transport inspector who stopped the bus issued a fine because the bus body was not painted yellow. Is this legal? Where is it documented that a bus for one-time chartered transportation of children should be yellow?

Natalia, Hello.

When transporting children in an organized manner, in general, the bus should not be painted yellow. I recommend challenging the specified fine and filing a complaint against the inspector with the prosecutor's office.

Good luck on the roads!

Alexey-509

Katerina-14

Hello! Question about the person in charge during the excursion. Last year several times I went with the class on different trips as a chaperone. The excursions were organized through a travel agency accredited by the school. The teacher signed the order of responsibility and rode with me. A few days ago, the head of the school security service informed the teacher at a meeting that now the teacher does not sign any order of responsibility and may (!) go as an invited person (or may not go), the organizer of the trip, that is, the parent, becomes responsible. We need to go with the class to the theater on March 29 and suddenly this information. Please explain whether this is true and where it is indicated on what basis such a statement could be made. Thank you in advance for your response!

Anastasia, Hello.

1. Attach a seat map for the specified bus.

2. What requirements are you talking about?

3. In what document did you find information about the need to submit a “seating arrangement” and to which organization are you submitting this “seating arrangement”?

Anastasia-101

An application is submitted for a free bus from Mosgortrans for an excursion to the museum for the class. The school submits an application through the portal, with a package of documents, in the list of documents is a seating plan, I am attaching the file to the message. I am the parent organizing the trip, so I put together a package and send it to the person in charge at the school, then the application is sent above. The application was returned without comments, and there was no one to find out

Julia, Hello.

The inscription “CHILDREN” is discussed in GOST R 51160-98 Buses for transporting children:

4.5.20 On the outer sides of the body, as well as on the front and rear along the axis of symmetry of the bus, contrasting inscriptions “CHILDREN” must be placed in straight capital letters with a height of at least 25 cm and a thickness of at least 1/10 of its height.

School buses must meet the requirements for transporting children (clause 1.2 of the traffic rules):

“School bus” is a specialized vehicle (bus) that meets the requirements for vehicles for transporting children established by the legislation on technical regulation, and is owned by right of ownership or on another legal basis to a preschool educational or general education organization.

If in your case there was organized transportation of children, then other requirements apply:

3. To carry out the organized transportation of a group of children, a bus is used, from the year of manufacture of which no more than 10 years have passed, which corresponds in purpose and design technical requirements for passenger transportation, is allowed in the prescribed manner to participate in road traffic and is equipped in the prescribed manner with a tachograph, as well as GLONASS or GLONASS/GPS satellite navigation equipment.

The inscription “Children” should not be placed on a bus for transporting passengers.

Good luck on the roads!

Comment is being added

Read all comments

Are there minimum requirements for the number of accompanying persons based on the number of children?

Rustem:

The number of accompanying persons per 1 bus is assigned based on their presence at each door of the bus, while one of the accompanying persons is responsible for the organized transportation of a group of children on the corresponding bus and coordinates the actions of the driver (drivers) and other accompanying persons on the specified bus.

The number of children and the number of accompanying persons are not directly related.

Good luck on the roads!

Please tell me, GAZELLE - Business 11 seats received for transporting children. Are the rules for hiring a driver (category D or B) the same?

Good morning! We are planning to travel on a big bus, each parent with their child from one big city to another, the travel time is 7-10 hours. This is what I understand, we are an unorganized group and the rules for an organized group do not apply to us, we hire a bus ourselves, we go ourselves with children, the only question is, there are more than 22 children on the bus, is transportation at night allowed for us? And what other subtleties might there be in our transportation of children? Thank you.

Veronica-5

Hello! Is it necessary to submit a notification to the traffic police to organize the transportation of children by school bus to their place of study and back, if every year before the start of the school year we agree with the traffic police on the route, scheme and schedule of the school route, i.e. do we approve the School Route Passport?

Tamaro4ka, Hello.

The specified transportation does not apply to the organized transportation of children; the corresponding requirements do not apply to it. Transportation is also possible at night.

Additionally, it must be observed, but this is the driver’s concern.

Good luck on the roads!

Veronica, Hello.

I don’t think that there can be any complaints from the traffic police in this case, since the department was notified in advance about the transportation of children.

Good luck on the roads!

Svetlana-73

Good afternoon, help me understand the notification: an organization (relatively Alpha) must deliver 30 children to the regional center (they don’t have their own transport and don’t have money for fuel and lubricants). An order is issued (as the main manager of budgetary funds) for a budgetary subordinate institution (conditionally Gamma) on the need to conclude a charter agreement, purchase a set of products, provide a medical worker, etc. (multi-year scheme). In the notification form we indicate: “Organizer of transportation” - Alpha, “customer of transportation (charterer)” - Gamma, right? From which legal entity is the Notification submitted to the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate? From the head of the transportation organizer (Alpha) or the transportation customer (Gamma)? (according to Order 941, there must be a charterer (we do not consider the option of submitting a notice from the charterer)). Thank you

Sergey-399

Hello. Are seat belts needed when transporting children with adults? Drive 15-20 kilometers. 17 grandfathers 20 adults. Thank you

Hello! And if a group of 15 children, accompanied by two teachers, travels (to a vacation spot on the lake) in a regular bus, which is public transport, is this considered an organized transportation of children or not?

Svetlana, Hello.

To avoid problems with paperwork, I recommend that you contact the traffic police department where you plan to submit the notification and ask them which option for filling out the document will suit them.

Good luck on the roads!

Sergey, Hello.

If the bus is equipped with seat belts, passengers must wear them.

Good luck on the roads!

Varangian, Hello.

A trip in a minibus vehicle cannot be an organized transportation of a group of children.

Good luck on the roads!

Good afternoon, is the trip by bus 15 children 5 parents organized transportation?

Igor, Hello.

It all depends on how many of the children are traveling with their parents. For example, if each parent has 1 child, then 10 children are traveling without parents and this is organized transportation.

If three parents have two children each, and two have one each, then only 7 children are traveling without legal representatives and this is not an organized transportation.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello

Are the requirements for a bus for the organized transportation of children required by GOST 33552-2015 (instead of the canceled GOST R 51160-98)?

If yes, then why, if GOSTs are, as a general rule, advisory.

Or is it enough to comply with the conditions of the “Rules for the organized transportation of a group of children by bus”?

Hello. Please clarify what specific requirements you have in mind.

There are many requirements in this GOST - for example, the mandatory yellow color of the bus.

Or should the bus manufacturer comply with all these requirements if, for example, he wants to declare it as a school bus?

Again, this GOST is not included in the list of mandatory GOSTs.

What then is a school bus?

Anything where the documentation says that it is a school bus? But in fact, could it even be a motorcycle with a sidecar?

Such an idea?

The traffic rules do not refer to the specified GOST; they only refer to. In this document regarding buses there is the following paragraph:

3. To carry out the organized transportation of a group of children, a bus is used that meets the purpose and design of the technical requirements for the transportation of passengers, is approved in the prescribed manner to participate in road traffic and is equipped in the prescribed manner with a tachograph, as well as GLONASS or GLONASS/GPS satellite navigation equipment.

Thus, using a bus whose color is different from yellow for the organized transportation of children is not a violation of traffic rules.

Good luck on the roads!

Tatyana-117

Hello. 5 children under the age of 7 years as part of a group transportation of children travel by bus for 3 hours and 45 minutes. one way then there is a visit to tourist sites and back by bus for 3 hours 45 minutes. Is it legal to include them in an organized group? They are traveling with relatives. In my opinion, the route is only 3 hours 45 minutes. According to clause 9 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 17, 2013 N 1177, it is prohibited to include children under 7 years of age in bus transportation on routes that require more than 4 hours to cover.

“The inclusion of children under 7 years of age in a group of children for organized transportation by buses when they are on the route according to the schedule for more than 4 hours is not allowed.”

Olesya, parents of children can also act as accompanying persons.

Good luck on the roads!

Tatiana, Hello.

From the point of view of traffic rules, a trip by a group of 5 children is not an organized transportation of a group of children.

What do you mean by inclusion in an organized group?

Julia, both teachers and parents can be accompanying people.

However, you write that the school provides a bus. If the conditions of the school are such that teachers need to be taken along with a dedicated bus, then they will have to be taken into account.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello!

Please tell me about organized transportation of children:

1 question. According to the traffic rules clause 10.3, the speed of movement of vehicles carrying out organized transportation of groups of children is no more than 60 km/h, but the Code of Administrative Offenses provides for a fine only if the speed is exceeded by more than 20 km/h from the permitted speed, based on this the question arises Can a driver with children move up to 80 km per hour or not?

Question 2. Organized transportation of children to competitions in another city for three days; upon departure, the driver undergoes a medical examination, an examination by a mechanic and receives ONE waybill for several days as he brings the children, lives with them, and takes them back at the end of the competition. The traffic police officer does not allow the vehicle to leave the city after the competition until the driver has undergone a medical examination and maintenance by a mechanic in another city, is this legal??

ArtemSh, Hello.

1. At a speed of less than 80 km/h, the traffic police will not impose a fine. However, if a bus gets into an accident and it turns out that its speed was 61 km/h or more, then its driver will be at fault for the accident. Accordingly, he will be held accountable to the court for harm caused to children.

2. In the described situation, the bus trip lasts several days. Accordingly, pre-trip medical examination and technical control are carried out only once (before the start of the voyage). How does the traffic police officer motivate his decision?

Maxim, good afternoon!

The traffic police officer motivated his decision only by the fact that the notification was drawn up in two parts: The first from our city to the neighboring one, the second: from the neighboring one to ours. In his opinion, these are two separate flights, although the employees of our traffic police department simply do not accept notification from us for the entire flight at once, claiming that they are concerned only with notification FROM our city, and everything that is in other cities is not interesting to them. Because of this misunderstanding, disagreements arise. We, in turn, refer to Order of the Ministry of Transport No. 141 of April 6, 2017, where paragraph 3 states: “Pre-trip control is carried out before the vehicle leaves its PERMANENT parking place.”

It turns out that the employee’s actions were illegal?

ArtemSh Unfortunately, in regulatory documents the very concept of “flight” is not deciphered in any way. That is, it is impossible to say exactly when there is one flight and when there are several.

Transport for group transportation of minors, technical standards - GOST R 51160-98

Rules and regulations have been prepared by the Ministry of Transport. The set of standards is enshrined in Government Decree No. 1177. The legislative act approved the following provisions regarding the transportation of persons under the age of majority:

• travel of minors (under 16 years of age) by non-route transport;
• organized transportation for groups of more than eight people;
• travel of minors without persons representing their interests.

Important! Persons representing the interests of minors are allowed to have an accompanying person, a person with a medical education. The set of rules is not relevant for all events in which parents who are not declared accompanying persons take part.

• compliance with the order of boarding and disembarking of minor passengers;
• preparation of a certain package of documents;
• compliance of the driver, as well as all accompanying persons, with current regulations;
• escort of the transport convoy by representatives of the traffic police.

Before the flight, the driver undergoes detailed instructions about the rules and regulations for transporting children. There should be no facts of deprivation of rights or other administrative violations in the traffic police.

Rules for organized group transportation of minors in 2019

The standards established by the Government Resolution define clear requirements for the process of boarding and disembarking minors, and the actions of accompanying persons during stops.

The process of boarding and disembarking minors

Before the organized boarding begins, the attendants check the presence of all passengers by checking the list. Children must be collected at a distance of at least 15 m from the landing site.

After checking passengers with the lists, baggage is loaded. At the same time, the dimensions of hand luggage are checked.

Instructions are provided to minors:

• behavior while the bus is moving, as well as during stops;
• the process of boarding and exiting the vehicle;
• actions in the event of force majeure or emergency situations;
• actions in the event of a deterioration in the health of one of the passengers.

Responsibilities of the attendants:

• monitoring the well-being of passengers;
• behavior control, tracking nutrition schedule;
• route control;
• settlement of a force majeure situation.

You can enter the transport only after it has stopped. Accompanying passengers in a certain, organized order (children under seven years of age stand in pairs) lead passengers to the bus. Boarding is carried out through the door closest to the driver.

Important! Carry-on luggage is laid out in transport so that it does not pose a danger and does not limit the driver’s clear view.

After the vehicle stops, the accompanying persons leave the vehicle and only then the passengers. Disembarkation is carried out exclusively through the door closest to the driver.

During the stop, accompanying persons stand at the doors of the vehicle - one at the front, the other at the back. Care must be taken to keep children away from the road.

Important! If necessary, the list of passengers is changed unilaterally before the start of the event - the trip organizer changes the composition of the group and has the right not to notify the carrier about this.

Escort of transport convoy by law enforcement agencies

Escort is required when the transport convoy consists of at least three buses. To organize an escort, you must submit an application to the state traffic inspectorate no later than two days in advance. The document is submitted by the event manager or sent by email to the official Internet resource of the state inspection.

The document must include the following information:

• date and duration of the event;
• exact route;
• full name of the accompanying person;
• full name of the driver, driver's license details;
• number of passengers for each bus;
• list of state license plates of all vehicles.

Important! If the event involves fewer than three buses, the trip organizer is also required to notify the traffic police department. To do this, you need to draw up a similar application and submit it to the traffic police. A document with a mark from the traffic police that law enforcement agencies have been notified of the event is retained by the driver.

Required documents

Documentation for organizing the transportation of minors must contain the following information:

• a complete list of children;
• copies of documents permitting the transportation of minors;
• list for organizing boarding - an exact plan indicating the place for passengers;
• notification from the traffic police department (copy of the application for necessary support);
• bilateral agreement between the customer and the carrier company;
• full last name, first name, patronymic, contact and passport details of persons accompanying children;
• agreement with a medical officer (necessary if the duration of the trip exceeds 12 hours);
• driver data;
• a complete list of food products for each vehicle.

Important! When drawing up a route, it is important to provide for a movement schedule, plan the places and duration of short stops - snacks, physiological needs.

Thus, buses, transportation organizers, and drivers are subject to certain requirements approved by law. In case of non-compliance with norms and requirements, the responsible persons bear administrative penalties. All organizers of such group trips across Russia can undergo detailed instructions at the state traffic inspectorate departments.
