The Federation Council at a meeting on Friday voted in favor of the law abolishing the mandatory technical inspection of personal vehicles.
Thus, from this procedure will be exempted “cars and motor vehicles”, which are owned by citizens and use them only “for personal purposes.”
At the same time, the law will not apply to official vehicles, as well as those used to transport passengers (including taxis).
However, as follows from the approved law, the inspection will have to take place when registering a car, changing the design or replacing the main units of the car, as well as in connection with a change in the owner of the vehicle.
In addition, the senators approved a law on criminal punishment for drivers who speed up and drive into the oncoming traffic: if they have been repeatedly punished for similar violations and deprived of their rights, the maximum punishment for them will be three years in prison.
Both documents approved by the Federation Council go to the President of the Russian Federation for signature.
