What you need to pass the inspection

Since 2012, the new rules for the inspection of vehicles. The goal of the event itself remained the same: not to be allowed to operate Cars, the use of which is potentially dangerous both for the driver himself and for others. Therefore, the essence of the inspection is still reduced to checking the technical state, revealing the faults of the machine. From here it follows logically that it is necessary to begin the vehicle inspection with the preparation for it. What should I pay attention to?

First, make sure there is a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, emergency stop sign. The capacity of the fire extinguisher is recommended at least 2 liters. It is recommended - you can not be forced to do this, But do not try to save on the fire extinguisher on this basis (this is not in your interest - with a smaller fire extinguisher in case of fire, you simply can not save your property). The fire extinguisher and first-aid kit should not be overdue. Please note that you need to have an emergency sign of the new sample for passing the inspection - two-color (outer contour - red, internal - orange).

If your driving experience is less than 2 years, the rear window should have a "beginner driver" sign; If you "on the thorns" - also the corresponding sign, the letter "Ш" in the triangle.

Now you can pay attention to the car itself. What do I need to check for the inspection?

- serviceability of all lighting devices, handbrake, sound signal, wipers and washers;

- tires (tread height of at least 1.6 mm, cuts and tears should not be);

- Absence of smudges of oil, fuel, coolant (if there are spots after parking under the car, this is an alarm signal);

- integrity of brake hoses, cylinders, tubes;

- serviceability of the brakes.

If the windshield of your car has a crack, make sure that it is outside the working area of the "janitor" on the driver's side; Otherwise the inspection will not pass.

Documents for inspection should be provided as follows:

- passport of the vehicle ;

- power of attorney, if you are not the owner;

- passport (citizen);

- Paid receipts.

In the power of attorney, the passing of a technical inspection must be indicated, as the areas of delegation of authority ("I trust to undergo technical inspection and perform all related actions").

Many believe that it is necessary to have a medical certificate and a compulsory motor insurance policy for passing a technical check-up. This is not true.

What has changed with the introduction of the new rules? Now you can choose at your choice either TRP - state technical inspection at the inspection station, located under the auspices of the traffic police; Or a technical inspection at any particular point having an appropriate registration. If you purchased your car from an authorized dealer, almost certainly your dealer has such a registration - the inspection in this case will cost you less.

After passing the inspection, you get a diagnostic card on your hands, which you do not need to carry with you: the data about your passing through the TO is already "stuffed" in the database of the STSI, to which each inspector has access. No checks are no longer issued, the need to periodically hang something, and then scrape off the windshield, no more.
