The article reveals the issues of implementation of decisions on deprivation of the right to drive a vehicle in Ukraine. It has been established that the problem of ensuring road safety is one of the important topics in ensuring public safety, since it is primarily related to the preservation of the life and health of each road user. In ensuring road safety, attention is paid to the implementation of administrative coercion measures, which over a long period of time remain key tool for influencing road users. It is noted that among the legal means of coercion, an administrative penalty in the form of deprivation of the right to drive a vehicle is effective, has a personal, and not material, nature. Decisions to deprive the right to drive a vehicle are made by the courts on the basis of a case of an administrative offense, not only as the main, but also as an additional administrative penalty. It is indicated that the collection of materials for the administrative case and the implementation of the court decision is carried out by the patrol police units. It was found that the presence of a different legal status of road traffic subjects regarding the imposition of an administrative penalty in the form of deprivation of the right to drive a vehicle, defined by the current legislation of Ukraine, does not contribute to improving the efficiency of the application and ensuring road safety.
