Summary/Abstract: It should be noted that not every monetary penalty can be mitigated pursuant to article 189d of the Code of Administrative Procedure – if special provisions include premises which should be followed by the authority in the course of imposing a penalty, then it is impossible to make auxiliary use of the guidelines expressed in the Code (following the principle lex specialis derogat legi generali). Pursuant to article 40 (12) of the Act on Public Roads, the occupation of the road lane for non-road purposes without appropriate permission is punishable with an administrative monetary penalty. In this article, the authors discuss the admissibility of mitigation of the administrative monetary penalty for the occupation of the road lane in the light of article 189d of the Code of Administrative Procedure.
