Of course, after the police stop the driver on the roadway, he does not immediately take out his mobile phone or office tablet to photograph the documents of the “mate”.
As a rule, traffic cops resort to such actions to record personal data if it is necessary to collect evidence of a certain crime. Moreover, according to the law “On the police”, they can do this with full right.
You’d be surprised to learn that the police have informal “blacklists” that they believe are problematic drivers. Basically, these are malicious violators of traffic rules and car farmers. If earlier, for example, traffic police officers left barely noticeable traces on the driver’s “crust”, making it clear to colleagues from the traffic police that this driver should be checked with particular fondness, now, in the age of digitalization, it is enough just to photo of documents of a dubious citizen.
As you know, law enforcement officers have the option of “breaking in” the driver by phone, by contacting their colleagues from the agency, or by accessing the database through a police tablet. But if you have not violated anything, and the law enforcement officers fix your documents by taking photos or video recording, then it’s time to ask the reason for such actions. Of course, knowledge of the law “About personal data” is unlikely to play into your hands, but contacting the hotline of the traffic police will certainly calm down the “gays” who want to replenish their photo gallery.
