Full engine check: in what cases can the inspector of the traffic police detain the car
Meeting with the inspector of the traffic police is rarely pleasant, especially on a long journey. And it is not at all languid when a traffic cop, accusing some violation, threatens to drive the car to the seized area and send passengers to “walk on foot”. How justified these threats are, and in what cases the traffic cops can really send the car to the “car prison”, the AvtoVzglyad portal specified.

In fact, there is a strict list of circumstances under which traffic cops have the right to stop a passenger car. It is in Art. 27.13 Administrative Code of the Russian Federation. And this means that military personnel cannot dispose of other people’s property at their own discretion and threaten to arrest the car for reasons they have invented.

The most egregious case is drunk driving. If the police smell alcohol during a routine check of documents, they have the right to ask the driver to undergo a medical examination and the car will be handed over to the owner’s agents. True, the situation is aggravated by the fact that other relatives do not always have “rights”, and friends or acquaintances who can drive the car to a safe place are not included in the insurance. In this case, the car will be sent to the seized plot until the owner himself comes for it. A car can also be stopped for driving a car by a person who has no “rights”, or who has lost them due to a court decision.

The evacuation of the car is also provided for violation of part 1 of art. 12.3. of the Code of Administrative Offenses, namely for driving an unapproved car or a vehicle without registration papers, i.e. for the fact that the driver does not have a registration certificate for the car during the check. It happens that the police are asked to provide at least a photo of the STS. If there is no photo and the wife or relatives cannot quickly send it via Messenger, the car is guaranteed to go to impound until all circumstances are clarified. This measure is quite understandable, because a banal hijacker can be behind the wheel.

The car can be stopped if it has a faulty braking system or steering. In this case, in accordance with Part 2 of Art. 12.5 of the Code, driving is prohibited. However, the arrest is used here as a last resort and only if the driver does not have the opportunity to independently send him to the service on a tow truck.

In art. 27.13. The Code of Administrative Offenses also lists other reasons for detaining a car, but they all relate to either the registration of freight traffic or the violation of parking rules. In other cases, the inspector does not have the right to order the drivers and their passengers to get out of personal vehicles, with the exception of very egregious situations already dealt with in the articles of the Penal Code. For example, if something illegal suddenly appears in the trunk.

But the popular reasons for claims among gays, such as worn license plates, a yellow “check engine” light on the dashboard, expired insurance, or even the lack of a driver’s license on you, are not reasons to hold a car. “Rights” can be easily found in the electronic databases of the traffic police, and OSAGO can be purchased via the Internet.
