On execution of punishment in the form deprivation of the right to engage in activities related to motor vehicle driving

Execution of punishment in a strict sense implies the implementation of only those restrictions that constitute the specific content of a punishment provided for by the Criminal Code. Punishment in a strict sense is a complex of legal restrictions determined by legal bases, both normative (group), stipulated by law and individual, determined by the court decision. Proceeding from this, the type of activity prohibited for the convict must be determined by the court individually in each specific case. The general ideas of organising the implementation of the prohibition on engaging in certain activities according to the Penal Code of the Russian Federation have not undergone drastic changes over the recent time. Therefore, the enforcement of the prohibition on engaging in activities connected with motor vehicle driving starts with the withdrawal of the document granting the convicted person the right to this occupation (driving license). However, while executing the punishment imposed by the court, it is necessary to take into account the facts of the convict’s driving without the driver's license, since only in this case the legal and factual possibilities of violating the prohibition imposed by the court will be eliminated.
