The cancellation of a power of attorney for a car is a fait accompli

It is not uncommon for a car to be driven not by its official owner. Perhaps, the most common situation is when the wife drives the car of the husband, or the wheelbarrow took the pimp for the offspring. If at the same time the owner is in the car, then none of the authorities should arise questions - it is clear that he trusts the driver. But if the owner does not, maybe the car was stolen? Previously, the power of attorney served as proof of the opposite. But now, when there was a legislative cancellation of the power of attorney for the car, the situation changed.

Canceling the power of attorney on the car means that now the employee of the State Road Safety Inspectorate (GIBDD) has no right to ask the driver for this document. Previously, he was on the mandatory list of what should be in the hands of the driver, so he was considered a good participant in the road. It is enough for the driver to present his rights and a certificate of registration of the vehicle (technical equipment) to the traffic police officer. And only if he has additional questions, insurance is presented.

The cancellation of the power of attorney for the car was actually replaced by the OSAGO form. In other words, the fact that the driver of a technical means trusts this driver, you can see in the form of insurance. Recall that OSAGO can be issued in two forms - with the restriction of the number of drivers who are allowed to operate this particular car, and without restriction. In the latter case, the cost of insurance substantially increases. And most drivers of personal cars, and many entrepreneurs, use the first option. And this means that if the driver is inscribed in the policy, the owner of the car trusts him, and there can be no question of hijacking. But if there are no entries in OSAGO, then the revocation of powers of attorney will not help: the traffic police officer will issue a fine of 500-800 rubles.

Does the cancellation of the power of attorney for the car mean that this document was not necessary at all? No, you can not say that. The law excluded the power of attorney from the number of mandatory documents that the driver must carry with him. But in some cases it is still necessary. For example, if the car was evacuated to a parking lot. It can be withdrawn after payment of all necessary penalties either by the owner inscribed in the technical passport (PTA), or by a trustee indicated in the power of attorney. In this case, it is not necessary to certify this document from a notary - a simple hand-written form, if it indicates that the bearer is entitled to certain actions.

In particular, the same applies to passing a vehicle inspection. The cancellation of the power of attorney for the car did not affect the situation when it is necessary to rent a car from the state registration or, on the contrary, to register it in the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate. The trustee not only can pass a checkup and get or pass the numbers, but even sell the car - if it is written in the same handwritten letter of attorney. Its notarization is required only for crossing the border.
