Dealers were allowed to self-register new cars

25 July 2018

But the auction of "fancy" numbers never showed up

On July 25 the deputies in final reading has approved the bill that would allow the registration of new cars without a visit to the traffic police: this can be done directly from a dealer. To do this, the employees of the dealership will need to draw up documents and transfer them to Gosavtoinspektsii, produce the numbers and give the finished kit a buyer.

It is unknown how many will have to pay for this procedure, but it is clearly not free. Fortunately, the Federal Antimonopoly service is going to set a limit on the rate, so increase the wages to infinity dealers can't. In addition, the law introduces electronic passports of vehicles (sprts designed), which will replace paper.

In an interview with "Izvestia" the Chairman of Movement of motorists of Russia Victor Pohmelkin has positively assessed the prospects of the new law: "of Course, when I can leave from the cabin on a registered car with the state numbers with the certificate of registration is, of course, easier than if I had to go to the GIBDD and to register.This practice has been in the history of our country and it was worth it. I don't know why it was abandoned. What it returns is correct. Yes, not all of these will benefit. She and the market economy and voluntary. This is a reasonable solution, it can be maintained".

It is noteworthy that the new law does not mention the auction, which would allow to choose and buy "pretty" numbers. Earlier to introduce such a mechanism, asked Vladimir Putin. The probable reasons expressed by the head of the Duma Committee on transport Evgeny Moskvichev: he believes that this provision disappeared from the bill, as deputies "do not want to market relations" in this industry. In other words, the purchase of "beautiful" numbers will carry the old-fashioned way: through a friend in the traffic police.
