The duties of traffic police inspectors include ensuring road safety, which includes being able to request “entitlements”, STS and insurance from the driver. But are military personnel allowed
Surely some of you have come across a situation when police officers ask on the roadside to provide documents not only for the driver, but also for passengers. How legitimate are such claims?
In fairness, it must be said that the occupants of the cabin, with the exception of the driver, are not road users as such. They can only be called them with a large stretch. In fact, this is a living cargo that the pilot carries in a car. However, this does not mean that law enforcement does not have the right to demand documents from riders for verification. Although here, however, not without nuances.
The inspector of the traffic police is a representative of the Ministry of the Interior and in accordance with the law “On Police”, he may well ask the passengers for documents to identify them. It is true that law enforcement officers must have good reasons for this. Let’s say, the suspicion of unidentified persons in committing an administrative offense, or even worse – a criminal offense.
However, traffic cops can check the documents of the driver’s companions, assuming they are wanted. But the simplest, as already mentioned, is the banal need to establish the identity of a particular citizen. Moreover, for committing such actions, the police officer is not obliged to inform the person about the reason for such need.
However, as a rule, traffic cops do not harass passengers from empty to empty. Usually, more attention arises for them when they behave inappropriately, are rude, swear, scandal, or exhibit a condition very similar to drug intoxication by their appearance. At worst, the driver himself was caught in the same drunkenness, in the passenger compartment of which substances may be prohibited for traffic. Passenger bags are no exception. True, the police have the right to search them only under video recording or with the involvement of witnesses. And people in uniform often check non-residents, which is actually not superfluous at all, certainly not in the period of the SVO.
In any case, it costs a law-abiding citizen nothing to show a passport to a police officer. If you are clean before the law, you have nothing to fear. But a dispute with the inspector can turn into a trip to the department, where you will not be “swept” without pleasure, breaking through the databases. Much worse when they get to the bottom of something else…
