Section 2.1.1 of the SDA requires the motorist to carry and present at all times three documents at the traffic officer’s first request: “rights”, STS, and the OSAGO policy. For violation of this postulate, the Code of Administrative Offenses provides for appropriate penalties. Article 12.3 of the Code provides for a fine of 500 rubles or a warning for a forgotten VU or OSAGO policy at home. If a motorist cannot present a registration certificate of his vehicle, he also “seems” the evacuation of the car to the confiscated premises – according to art. 27.13 of the Code of Administrative Violations.
And if the car is in principle not insured under OSAGO, then according to art. 12.37 the driver is entitled to a fine of 800 rubles. That is, in penal theory, all variants of “forgetfulness” are provided for. But practice is far from these formal postulates. And this process was provoked by the introduction of electronic OSAGO policies into everyday life. After that it became clear: it is rather difficult to get an electronic document from the “glove box” and stretch it to the inspector for verification. To ensure that traffic police officers did not establish protocols for driving without OSAGO for holders of electronic policies, the traffic police had to issue a special circular. And those who bought the “electropolis” were advised to carry a printed copy with them.
Although “drawing” with the help of a computer and then printing it out is within the power of any motorist. Even for those who have never bought a “car burger”. Be that as it may, but for the inspectors it makes sense at each check of documents to demand from the driver that the policy is also almost completely gone. What do those car owners who do not actually take out insurance use now. When meeting with the traffic police they say they don’t have a policy with them because in most cases the police don’t ask for one anyway. After all, in order to bring the cunning into clean water, the traffic cop must specifically “break” it through department databases. And this rarely happens during the routine verification of documents.
It’s curious, but now it is quite possible to forget about the “duties” at home and drive without them. At least in Moscow, where every team of the traffic police has a “tablet” connected to departmental “information”. You show your passport to the employee and, after verifying your identity, he will find out whether the citizen standing in front of him has a VU or not. If the current “crust” exists in nature and there are no more claims from the inspector to the driver, then most likely the forgetful driver will continue as if nothing had happened.
Therefore, in order not to be afraid of problems from the traffic police in terms of documents, it is enough for the driver to have with him only an STS car and his own passport. And the “rights” and OSAGO policies may lie at home.
