Dual Administrative Liability of Individual Entrepreneurs for Violations in the Field of Passenger Transportation

The paper examines the legal permissibility of imposing dual administrative liability on individual entrepreneurs for administrative offenses in the field of passenger transportation by motor vehicle. The specific nature of such offenses lies in the fact that their object may encompass public relations both in the sphere of road traffic safety and in the sphere of consumer protection in the provision of services. Using general scientific research methods, the study explores the issue of overlap between the objects of these administrative offenses and analyzes the admissibility of imposing dual liability. The paper further reviews judicial practice and scholarly opinions, identifying the distinguishing features of administrative offenses in the field of passenger transportation that are taken into account by courts in adjudicating such cases. The study reveals a particular feature of administrative liability in the sphere of passenger transportation, namely the possibility of holding individual entrepreneurs liable simultaneously for violations relating to road traffic safety and consumer protection. The author proposes recommendations aimed at improving law-enforcement practice in passenger transportation by motor vehicle.
