So, with the portal “Gosuslugi” we now live forever: the “delete profile” button suddenly disappeared from the available options, so everything and everyone is now forever in one application. However, this is not so bad – public services have firmly entered everyday life and in many ways have become a convenient and extremely important service. Including driving.
The fact is that last year, in addition to the main application, the “Gosuslugi Avto” service appeared with a very relevant and popular functionality: it contains the user’s license plate and registration documents for all personal vehicles, which can theoretically be demonstrated to a traffic police officer in case of forgotten documents. True, rather only theoretically – the police wiped the phone, as if it were an annoying fly, and demanded the originals, not
want to hear about all these “your applications”. But then something changed in the system. It turns out that this service is “tested” until March 2023, and the traffic police can demand originals. It’s already April, it’s time to experiment. And here’s the wave of the striped wand, suitable for all conditions!
Moscow, MKAD. Politely and without rudeness, we absolutely honestly declare our desire to demonstrate modern technologies instead of laminated paper: strangely enough, the employee does not show any aggression, calmly takes his work tablet, scans the same QR code and lets go in peace. Indeed: both “rights” and STS “pop up” immediately in the system, no longer need to drag a mossy “crust” out of your pocket. However! Since “such a drink” continues, we show a civil point of view, in the sense of natural curiosity: is it really possible not to be afraid of forgotten documents? Nobody leaves the phone at home now!
Alas, things are not so smooth. In the capital, where communication is present in every corner, and without exception all traffic cops are armed with tablets specially made for the service, this possibility is really there and there should be no problems. However, the Internet is not available everywhere and not always and the equipment of patrol teams is unfortunately not the same in all regions. Therefore, it is better not to forget about the original documents, despite the presence of an electronic copy in the government departments. However, it is worth acknowledging the other side of the coin: the application works and can save an unprecedented mountain of nerve cells in an emergency.
