New rules for inspection in Russia in 2012

Since the beginning of 2012, throughout the whole of Russia, the rules for passing a vehicle inspection have changed, Which, cardinally differing from the format of the old model, are designed to improve the quality and efficiency of service at the points of maintenance. A unified computer base has been created that connects technical centers, insurance companies, tax police. It is she who stimulates the car owners to carefully monitor the condition of their car, which significantly increases the price of the car in case of its sale. The buyer visually, according to the documentation, sees the state of the car.

The new inspection rules do not provide for the passage of TO vehicles that are not yet three years from the date of purchase. These cars will be given a coupon without inspection for a period of 3 years. At the age of the car from 3 to 7 years, the coupon will be issued every two years, and older ones must be inspected annually. All carriers of passengers (taxis, minibuses, buses) are waiting THEN times half a year. The passage of inspection for trailers in which the maximum weight is allowed up to 3.5 tons is canceled.

The new version of the law has changed the procedure for acquiring a compulsory motor insurance policy . Now, in order to be able to write compulsory motor TPL insurance, it is necessary to pass the maintenance. The absence of a coupon is no longer an excuse for a fine (there will be only passenger carriers for paying a penalty for the lack of a vehicle inspection ticket), but without an autocitizen, you will face the inevitable punishment. There should not be a deficit of coupons now, as Gosznak has printed about 10 million new model technical items.

Also in new Inspection rules introduced abolition of regionality during the passage of maintenance. You can turn to any point of diagnosis, from the technical centers represented by the Russian Union of Motor Insurers, regardless of the registration of the car and pass through there TO. Now in the territory of Russia there are more than 2,5 thousand points of maintenance, and by 2014 their number will increase to 10,000. The new inspection rules have been transferred to the insurance companies by the control function from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They will demand compensation for negligent maintenance by operators, if an accident occurs due to a malfunction. Decreased the list of documents required for inspection, but increased responsibility for the condition of the car in technical terms. The customer himself must initiate the repair of his car and keep it in good order.

As for right-hand drive vehicles, if they are technically sound, there will be no problems with passing the TO. Lowered the requirements for non-standard optics of American machines.

The procedure of the vehicle inspection has undergone serious changes. New inspection rules Strictly regulate the time for inspection of the vehicle. So the identification of the car should take no more than 5 minutes, the diagnosis of a car with a gasoline engine - 33-35 minutes, diesel and gas - 38-43 minutes, and buses and trucks - 65-67 minutes. If the result is positive, the operator will give you a TO within 10 minutes. In the event of non-compliance with this regulation, the owner of the vehicle may file a complaint.

The cost of a vehicle inspection, which depends on the region, will now be adjusted by the service providers themselves. The main thing is that the limit set by the Federal Tariff Service is not exceeded. The state duty was removed from the cost of the maintenance. At the moment the cheapest prices in Moscow are 690 rubles. In the regions, payment ranges from 350 to 600 rubles. Afflicts the lack of discounts for privileged categories of citizens.

In two transitional years, when the old and new rules will operate, the law will be finalized. The Government of the Russian Federation is confident that the market and competition will themselves regulate the mechanism and prices for new rules for passing the inspection .
