Technical Inspection: Drivers Come Up With Trick Against Traffic Police

The SAI still does not have a database on vehicle inspection and Belarusian drivers take advantage of this.

This is not the first year that there has been talks about providing the traffic police with access to the Beltekhosmotra (Belarusian technical inspection) database, which would facilitate the process of identifying violators, but this has not been done so far. This is one of the reasons why car owners sometimes use a trick – they say to the inspector that they forgot the certificate at home. Many also "forget" an inspection ticket. As you know, if you don't have your documents with you, it implies different responsibility, abw.by writes.

However, employees of UP Beltekhosmotr can sometimes join the SAI raids, aimed at detecting violations of the terms of passing the technical inspection. They have access to the database and can make a request containing the number on the registration plate of the car, even if the documents were "forgotten" at home. Moreover, this database operates in online mode, so every car leaving the diagnostic station gets into it almost instantly.

We remind, that this month the traffic police strengthened control over transport in order to prevent accidents caused by improper technical condition of cars and other equipment.
