In the second summer months, several serious innovations are waiting for motorists at once – we remember them all so as not to fall for a sudden “surprise” on the road.
Showcase with traffic police data
This is a new online database of the State Traffic Inspectorate, the operation of which will begin from July 1 – the corresponding order was published by the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the official Internet portal of legal information. All malicious traffic rule violators end up in this database, allowing carriers to find out in advance whether the driver has committed multiple violations and has not lost his rights. In addition, the data may be used by insurance companies when issuing OSAGO. Everyone enters the database – both Russians and foreigners.
New OSAGO prices
Increase in the cost of policies – also from 1 July. As you know, the decision is related to an increase in the price of spare parts. At the same time, payments for OSAGO repairs have become more important – now they are much more closely linked to the market value of auto parts. Therefore, it is more likely that the amount transferred to you by the insurance company will be enough to fully restore the car.
Identification by rights
And this innovation has been working since June 29. From this date, amendments to the Federal Law “On Combating the Legalization (Money Laundering) of the Proceeds of Crime and the Financing of Terrorism” came into effect. The updated law allows financial and other organizations that conduct transactions involving money and property to identify customers based on rights. That is, at the time of conclusion of the contract, you can indicate the number of the driver’s license instead of the previously required SNILS, TIN or compulsory health insurance.
New form of traffic police
In the second half of June, traffic police inspectors began to receive sets with a new service uniform – now we are talking about summer, but the equipment for the demi-season and winter has also been updated. The first to try the new uniform were employees of the State Traffic Inspectorate in Murmansk, Tatarstan, the Krasnodar Territory, Chechnya and a number of other regions.
It is reported that the new shape is lighter modern and eye-catching. In particular, reflective elements appeared on the uniforms and the summer jacket became shorter and got zippers in the armpit area.
- And the State Duma has passed a law on administrative responsibility for disposing of garbage from cars.
- “Behind the wheel” can be read in Odnoklassniki.
