What is forbidden to change in the design of the car. How to file changes in the design of the car in the traffic police? I

A car today is both a means of transportation, and a luxury, and a property. Many drivers believe that they can do whatever they want with their car. In particular, they carry out changes in the design of the vehicle in accordance with their needs and desires. Meanwhile, any car is a source of danger. In this regard, certain adjustments can increase the risk not only for other road users, but also for the driver himself. Therefore, there is a certain order of change. The design of the vehicle can be adjusted, strictly observing the established requirements. Let's consider them in more detail.

Normative base

What does the law say about vehicle modifications? The key regulatory act for any driver is traffic rules. There are 2 appendices in the Rules. One of them defines the cases in which the operation of the vehicle in a faulty condition is not allowed. This appendix contains clause 7.18. It states that the operation of the vehicle is prohibited if a change in the design of the vehicle is detected, carried out without the appropriate permission from the traffic police or other bodies authorized by the Government.

Explanations

Analyzing the rule, we can come to the following conclusions. Normative acts do not prohibit making changes to the design of the vehicle. However, after their implementation, the vehicle must stand still and not be operated, or the driver should coordinate them with the authorized authorities. In other words, punishment is provided only in the case of driving a car that has undergone changes that are not registered with the traffic police or other competent structures. You can not operate the car with HBO, kenguryatnik, replaced or sawn off springs, etc., if the adjustments have not passed the examination. This procedure involves checking the compatibility of the proposed changes with the capabilities of the vehicle. After completing the examination, the driver receives a safety certificate.

Sanctions

It should be noted that the norms establish administrative liability for violation of traffic rules. In particular, the rules provide for a driver who does not have the permission of the traffic police or other competent authority, but who has carried out a change in the design of the vehicle, a fine. In what cases can a sanction be applied to a citizen? First of all, you should find out what is a change in the design of the vehicle. It should be understood as the re-equipment of the machine, in which some components, parts or assemblies are removed from it, added or replaced with similar ones, but having different parameters, as a result of which specifications Vehicles are not the same as it was provided at the factory.

List of vehicle design changes

Manipulations that can significantly affect the technical characteristics of the vehicle include:

Correction of the type of engine or body.
Installation of certain equipment not specified by the manufacturer.
Changing the location and number of passenger seats, fuel tanks.
Correction of weight and overall parameters.
Replacing the motor model, as a result of which its power and weight change.
Steering wheel reinstallation.
Any operations with light signaling and lighting devices.
Chassis refurbishment.
Replacement of elements that provide visibility provided by the manufacturer, certain conditions for post-accident and passive safety, greater visibility.
Replacing the brake or fuel system with another one.
Installation of rims of smaller / larger diameter. In this case, you need to find out what sizes are provided by the manufacturer. Often they are indicated on information plates located in the opening of the driver's door. If the diameter of the discs to be installed are within the allowable range, then there is no need to formalize such a change in the design of the vehicle.

These are not all the adjustments that a driver can make.

Making changes to the design of the vehicle (2016)

Consider several cases of re-equipment of the vehicle. When installing a trailer hitch, check whether it is officially included in the list of optional equipment. The towbar, designed for heavy loads, is connected either by welding to the power elements of the machine. Such a change in the design of the vehicle requires registration. However, there are exceptions to this rule. They are provided for easily removable structures that are not attached to load-bearing elements. These, among other things, include removable trunks in the form of containers, bicycles, and so on.

Installing a larger tank

From a regulatory point of view, this manipulation will be considered as a change in the design of the vehicle. 2016 is not over yet, but some practice has already developed in this regard. In particular, it shows that traffic police officers rarely pay attention to the capacity of the tank on the road. If it is produced at the factory and has a certificate, it is installed in compliance with the requirements, then the inspectors are unlikely to have any claims. Problems are likely for those who often cross the border. Customs officers can accuse the driver of fuel smuggling.

Tuned bumpers, spoilers, body kits, winch

All of these items must go through a standard clearance process. As an exception, there are body kits that are installed on base models in salons accredited by the manufacturer. Difficulties may arise for drivers who drive classic VAZs with their bumpers removed, as this will be considered a violation. Registration in most cases is also provided for the winch. An exception applies to cases where it is provided for in the list

Preparatory stage

The rules under which a change in the design of a vehicle is agreed (2016) provide for an examination. You can find out the list of structures authorized to carry it out in the Department of Technical Regulation. After receiving the conclusion, you must contact the traffic police. This authority issues permission for changes to the design of the vehicle. The application is submitted with:

The conclusion of technical expertise.
Identity document.
Registration document of the vehicle.

The driver's representative must additionally present a power of attorney confirming his authority. Accordingly, you should also provide the car itself for inspection. If a positive decision is made to make changes to the design of the vehicle, you can, in fact, begin to manipulate the machine.

Nuances

The installation of elements can be carried out independently, on the basis of any organization that has the appropriate certificate allowing such work to be carried out, or at the enterprise specified in the conclusion of the technical expertise. In the last two cases, the contractor issues an application-declaration to the owner of the vehicle. It indicates the volume and quality of the work performed. If the activities were carried out independently, the document is drawn up, respectively, by the owner of the car.

Registration process

Changes to the design of a registered vehicle are checked by an expert examination. According to its results, the owner of the car receives a protocol. After that, you need to pass an inspection. Upon its completion, registration of changes in the design of the vehicle is carried out. The traffic police must provide:

The conclusion of the first examination, establishing the possibility of making adjustments to the vehicle.
Statement.
A document that certifies the identity of the driver, and a copy of it.
Vehicle registration document.
Protocol of the second technical examination.
Diagnostic checkup card.
Receipt confirming the payment of state duty.
Copies of certificates for items and parts used in the conversion, spare parts, accessories in the absence of markings, certified in accordance with established rules.

The vehicle itself is also provided for inspection.

Features of responsibility

As mentioned above, punishment is provided for uncoordinated changes to the design of the vehicle. The fine is set at 500 rubles. for regional roads. For some drivers, this amount does not seem huge. In this regard, there are citizens who agree to bear the punishment every time for changing the design of the vehicle. The penalty is set in Art. 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses. At the same time, as practice shows, traffic police officers often use a more effective way to deal with violations. In particular, if the driver is repeatedly caught by inspectors with inconsistent design changes, the registration of the car may be terminated (annulled). Using this method, employees refer to paragraphs 51 and 3 of the Rules for issuing a vehicle.

Grounds for refusal to register

They are provided for in paragraph 3 of the Rules mentioned above. In accordance with the provisions, a vehicle is not subject to registration, the design of which or changes made to it do not comply with the requirements of regulatory enactments regulating traffic safety. A similar rule applies to cars, the technical condition of which differs from the information specified in the submitted documents.

Additional Provisions

Clause 51 of the Registration Rules states that registration, deregistration and change of data is not carried out until the completion of checks carried out by law enforcement agencies, as well as in case of non-compliance with the Administrative Regulations. This provision also applies in other cases established by the regulations. If the circumstances specified in paragraph 3 are revealed, it is canceled (terminated) by the relevant department at the place of registration of the vehicle. Documents, TCP, signs are handed over and disposed of by the traffic police. If they were not presented, then they are put on the wanted list. Cancellation (termination) of registration does not apply to vehicles, from the date of registration of which, in accordance with documents subsequently recognized as fake / invalid, more than 5 years have passed. If the driver eliminates the circumstances that caused the application of the above rules, the restoration of accounting is carried out at the place of its termination. At the same time, new documents and signs are issued, as well as TCP.

Lighting system

It should be mentioned separately. Quite often, drivers replace halogen lamps with xenon ones. This is expressly prohibited by the regulations, as they blind motorists in oncoming lanes and quite often cause accidents. The legislation provides, in addition to administrative, criminal liability for this violation. The driver can face up to a year in prison with confiscation of lighting fixtures and other similar devices.

Memo for drivers

Summarizing all the above, we can give the main recommendations for drivers who want to change the design of their car. It is advisable to entrust the re-equipment of the vehicle to a specialized service station that has the appropriate permits. A car with structural changes is provided for inspection at the traffic police. Beforehand, it is necessary to prepare the entire package of documents, including the conclusion of an examination for the compatibility of adjustments with the technical capabilities of the vehicle. Lack of permission from the inspection may serve as a basis not only for the imposition of an administrative fine, but also for refusal of registration. This means, in particular, that it will not be possible to make any transactions with the TS. Moreover, if violations are detected, the inspection may cancel the registration altogether, withdraw documents and signs. When removing the rear seats, which is carried out to increase the usable space in the cabin, identified for the first time, the driver faces a fine. You can remove these elements only if they are mounted not on bolts, but on latches, which are provided by the manufacturer.

More about exceptions

Not all conversions to the machine will require registration of changes. In particular, it is not needed if the installation of units and parts provided as additional by the vehicle manufacturer is carried out. You can also do without contacting the traffic police if the car is being re-equipped in series. In this case, the basis is It must be drawn up and agreed upon according to the established rules. In all other cases, it is necessary to have a mark in the document by which the car is identified. It indicates the number of the certificate confirming the compliance of the vehicle with the changes made to it, as well as the safety of the conversion. This mark allows the operation of the vehicle.

Conclusion

Before re-equipping a car, it is necessary to evaluate your capabilities and, in fact, the appropriateness of the measures. Undoubtedly, in many cases, the "improved" design of the vehicle provides a number of advantages to the owner. However, one should not forget about road safety. Some design changes pose a potential threat to road users. These, in particular, include the reinstallation of lighting devices, the adjustment of the steering, chassis. In addition, it is worth remembering that the coordination and execution of changes will take some time. Without the appropriate permits converted cars are not allowed. The administrative fine for someone may seem insignificant. However, do not forget that traffic police inspectors have other tools to deal with violations. In order to avoid their use, it is necessary to comply with the established requirements. Otherwise, an administrative fine may be followed by cancellation of registration or even criminal liability.

In the last article on this topic, we examined in detail the situation with and talked with representatives of a large tuning studio. The dry rest of that conversation can be formulated as follows: if you are modifying a car on your own, in order for the modifications to become legal, you definitely need to go through a series of appeals to the traffic police and to US. If you contact a tuning organization, then in case of a possible communication with the traffic police, it may be enough for you to carry a pack of certificates with you, because the procedure for registering changes has not yet been thoroughly spelled out, and not all traffic police departments understand how to act.

The specialists of FSUE "NAMI", where we turned for the following commentary, have their own vision of the situation. Talking with Andrey Vladimirovich Vasiliev, director of the Center for Technical Expertise of FSUE NAMI, we started with general questions and decided to clarify once again: what procedure is provided and what documents are needed if a person is going to modify a production car? And we received a detailed instruction, which we present in full.

Registration of vehicle modifications. Order owner's actions:

Obtaining a conclusion of a preliminary technical examination on the possibility and procedure for making changes to the design of the vehicle. This conclusion confirms that a corresponding design change can be made to the design of this vehicle and imposes conditions under which it will meet safety requirements, and also contains recommendations for choosing a production base.

To obtain a preliminary examination report at FSUE NAMI must submit:

application for preliminary examination;
passport details of the owner (for an individual) or the name and address of the organization (for a legal entity);
copies of documents for the vehicle (passport, registration certificate);
a description of the proposed change in the design of the vehicle, indicating the names (make, model) of the components and assemblies to be replaced and, if necessary, the vehicle.

Registration in the traffic police of an application for making changes to the design of the vehicle with the provision of the car to the traffic police for inspection. With a positive decision of the traffic police authority, you can start work on making changes to the design of the vehicle.

Performance of work on making changes to the design, taking into account the requirements set forth in the conclusion of the preliminary technical examination. Upon completion of the work, the organization carrying out the re-equipment issues an application-declaration on the scope and quality of the work performed and a copy of the certificate for the services.

Carrying out a technical inspection of the vehicle after making changes to the design in accredited PTOs with obtaining a diagnostic card.

Obtaining a protocol of technical examination of the design after making changes to the vehicle.

To obtain a protocol of technical expertise of the vehicle design after making changes to FSUE NAMI must submit:

application for making changes to the design of the vehicle with the resolution of the traffic police;
a copy of the document for the vehicle (passport, registration certificate);
a copy of the document for the replaced unit (PTS, sales contract in the name of the owner of the vehicle);
an application-declaration on the scope and quality of work (filled in by the service that performed the work) with a technical description of the changes made and the characteristics of the vehicle after the changes were made;
documentation characterizing the changes made to the design (sketches, photos, design documentation, etc.), certificates for used components;
car service certificate;
a diagnostic card after the re-equipment, entered in the EAISTO database;
a copy of the conclusion of the preliminary examination;
car for inspection.

Obtaining from the traffic police a certificate of compliance of the vehicle design with safety requirements (SKTS), based on the documents listed in paragraphs 1-5.

Entering conversion data and SKTS number into vehicle registration documents (PTS and registration certificate).

So, we have the very scheme that has already been described in the media more than once, but in reality it often causes difficulties - even stated like this, in specific paragraphs, it does not look simple. But apart from it, a number of questions remain, some of which we tried to clarify in FSUE NAMI.

K .: And what procedure is provided if a person already owns a car with modifications? How can he legitimize them?

N.: As a rule, for owners who have made changes to the design of the vehicle before the entry into force of the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union (TR CU 018/2011), that is, before January 1, 2015, the procedure for registering changes is the same, in accordance with paragraphs 1-6, dismantling of the installed equipment is not required.

K .: Are there any typical situations - in which you issue a positive conclusion, and in which you refuse? For example, is it possible to put a larger engine? Where is the line beyond which your experts will definitely not miss? And how is it defined?

N.: Experts will definitely not miss design changes that worsen safety parameters or do not meet the requirements of TR CU 018/2011. Regarding the engine power, it can be said that it is allowed to install the engine provided by the manufacturer for this type of vehicle. A variant with a different engine may also be considered. At the same time, power and torque cannot exceed the performance of a standard engine by more than 25%. FSUE "NAMI" experts carry out the appropriate calculations or send the vehicle for testing at the Dmitrovsky auto test site to obtain a protocol.

K .: Cars are being finalized in very different ways - here are jeepers with snorkels and power bumpers, and street racers with lowered suspension and large discs, and businessmen who installed HBO on the Gazelle. Can all these people just show the traffic police officers certificates from component manufacturers describing their installation on a given model?

N.: The presence of a certificate confirms only the safety of the component, but not the safety of the car on which it is installed. Therefore, the procedure for registration of changes in the design for such cars is still necessary.

K .: And if a person presents a certificate to a police officer, where it is written that the installer company tested the car in the prescribed manner (say, in US), received a certificate for the product and its installation on a specific model?

N.: There is only one possibility not to apply to the centers that issue changes - if the vehicle manufacturer or its official representative in the territory of the Customs Union, in accordance with the established procedure, has certified the components in this type of vehicle and received the OTTS.

K .: How, in your opinion, should the legal field around the new technical regulation and the application of its provisions in practice eventually be formed? Should everyone have a mark in the TCP that the car has been finalized? Or is it only for those who manufacture and install tuning elements in private?

N.: All changes in the design must be reflected in the documents for the car.

K .: In general, tuning - is it good or not? Does NAMI welcome competent modifications of the car? Or it is considered that the car is in its best form, when it is what it was released by the manufacturer?

N.: Tuning, carried out with a sense of proportion and real need, can be useful for the car owner.

What is the result?

Let's make a brief summary of what has been said.

FSUE "NAMI" experts note that work with companies involved in tuning is built "on a common basis." In fact, this means that in terms of registration of modifications, tuning studios are equated to private traders - and therefore they are obliged to provide any manufactured car to the NAMI laboratory and receive a “tuned” TCP for it. The only option for a tuning company not to register each modified car with NAMI is to coordinate with the vehicle manufacturer and carry out the procedure for certifying components as part of this type, followed by registration of vehicle type approval and release into circulation.
The tuning company can shift the procedure for registering changes in the design to the owner of the car, and he, in turn, can not go anywhere, carry a pack of certificates in the “glove compartment” and, if necessary, present them to the traffic police. But this approach works (not always, however) only because some police officers are still not aware that any improvements, no matter who conducts them, should be recorded in the TCP, and not in the certificate.
Any “swap” of motors (swap, “replacement” (English), when high-performance units are placed in initially low-power cars), as well as serious engine modifications and other serious interventions, risk forever (at least for a long time) remaining outside the law. Let's explain with a simple example: if you have a Lada Granta Sport with a base engine power of 120 hp, and you have increased the power by more than 30 hp through refinement. (more than a quarter), then you cannot get the appropriate mark in the TCP and legally move on the roads.

This is how the situation looks like this moment. A hard "no" to fans of "collective farms"? The beginning of the decline of tuning as a phenomenon? Or maybe the start of new, more professional and balanced directions? While all scenarios seem equally possible...

	· the fact of falsification of the protocol and the conclusion of the examination were found out; the changes provided in the documents do not comply with the security rules; the vehicle was imported without documents confirming certification or with restrictions from customs authorities; The presence of false information in the provided documentation.

Changes to the design of the vehicle potentially pose a danger to car owners and other road users. In this regard, strict restrictions have been introduced on the conversion of cars. It is not prohibited to make changes, but it must be done in accordance with legal requirements and with the permission of regulatory authorities.

The illegality of unauthorized conversion of cars is stated in the Federal Law "On Road Safety" (No. 196), the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union (18/2015) and clause 7.18 of the Rules of the Road. According to the current regulations, it is possible to change the design of the car, but the operation of the vehicle with unregistered changes is prohibited.

Permission is obtained from the competent authorities before the machine is converted. It is necessary to issue an agreement when installing parts and assemblies that are not provided by the manufacturer. If the equipment is technically and visually inconsistent, the vehicle must not be driven until permission has been obtained.

What changes do not require registration allowed by the traffic police

No permit is required to replace any items that are provided in the operational documentation, correspond to the model of the car and have the manufacturer's marking. The car owner can change old parts for new ones, but in compliance with the installation rules. Regardless of where the machine is being converted, it is not necessary to coordinate your actions with authorized authorities.

To understand what needs to be registered, and when it is possible to do without approval documents, it is necessary to distinguish between the concepts of “constructive changes” and “additions”.

Changes are everything related to replacing the functionality with a new one: a kenguryatnik, HBO, xenon lamps, etc. You need to issue a permit to operate a car with the changes made.

Additions include navigators, video recorders, radars, detectors and other equipment that does not require the dismantling of elements installed by the manufacturer. Additions made to the design of the car are not registered.

Car owners are held liable only when driving a homemade car without registration and the necessary permits. The fine is 500 rubles. There are also more severe punishments. The car is automatically deregistered in cases where, after an administrative violation order has been issued, the vehicle does not return to its original appearance and condition within 10 days.

Prior approval for modifications to the vehicle design

Especially for car owners who want to make changes to the design of the car, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has developed a draft resolution that establishes the procedure for legalizing the conversion.

preliminary examination;
Applying for a permit from the traffic police;
Re-equipment with the passage of technical inspection;
Obtaining a certificate of compliance with safety requirements.
Entering data on re-equipment in the registration documents of the vehicle (SOR and PTS).

Not all technical improvements can be officially registered. Before you install, change and make changes to the design of the car, you need to make sure that it is possible to re-equip. This will avoid unreasonable costs and penalties.

The refurbishment process begins with a preliminary conclusion. This is the first document, the presence of which confirms the possibility of making changes to the design of the machine.

The conclusion is issued before the first visit to the traffic police.

To obtain a document, the car owner must contact any specialized center that has the right to carry out such verification procedures. After the inspection, the specialist must issue a conclusion on the possibility or impossibility of structural changes.

The procedure for making changes to the design of the car

Having received preliminary approval, the car owner writes a statement listing the desired reconstruction actions. You can start re-equipment only after a decision is made on the application and a conclusion is drawn up on the possibility of making changes from the traffic police.

Where to go

Those wishing to obtain approval and official permission for conversion to the traffic police should contact car service centers that have licenses to carry out the necessary work. After changes are made to the design, the center employee is obliged to issue to the car owner the results of the technical inspection, a document with a complete list of work performed, certificates of compliance of the installed equipment with the current requirements of the Regulations. With these documents, the owner of the vehicle again applies to the traffic police with a request to receive a document confirming the fulfillment of the conditions for safe operation.

Expertise

To legitimize the changes made and document the safety of the installed equipment, a final examination is carried out.

Upon completion of the procedure, the owner is issued a protocol of technical expertise, which must be submitted to the traffic police. In addition to the protocol, the car owner presents an identity document, title, certificate of registration of the car. After the checks carried out, the traffic police officer draws up a certificate of compliance of the converted vehicle with safety requirements.

WITH complete list organizations that are authorized to assess the condition of the car when making changes to the design can be found on the website of the technical department. regulation of the EEC.

When the traffic police may refuse to register changes

The body number, engine number, VIN and other marking details must not be touched. If this requirement is violated, traffic police officers may refuse to register changes. Other grounds for refusal include:

Inaccuracy of information in the submitted documents;
The car was imported without documents confirming certification or with restrictions from customs authorities;
The changes presented in the documents are contrary to the security rules;
There are obvious forgeries in the protocols and conclusions of the examinations.

Before planning the re-equipment and improvement of the car, read the full list of reasons for a possible failure, which is indicated in clause 3 of the General Provisions of the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation No. 1001 (dated November 24, 2018) “On the procedure for registering a vehicle”. This will avoid trouble when checking documents and administrative penalties for illegal introduction into the design of the car.

Changing the design of the vehicle requires the car owner not only technical skills, but also legal knowledge. In Russia, changes to the design of the car must meet the established requirements, be carried out in accordance with safety rules and not pose a threat to the life of both the driver and pedestrians. A car with new design solutions must be certified by experts with the provision of permits that will be required at the traffic police to register such a vehicle. The certification and registration procedure is regulated by law.

Legal Framework

Improvement in the design of a car is regulated at the federal level by Law No. 196 of 12/10/1995 "On Road Safety". This document was last updated in summer 2017. The re-equipment of vehicles is referred to in the 15th article of the law (clause 4, supplemented in accordance with Federal Law No. 313 “On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation ...” dated 12/30/2008). The document says:

“After making a change in the design of registered vehicles, including the design of their components, items of additional equipment, spare parts and accessories that affect road safety, it is necessary to re-certify or re-declaration of conformity.”

The supervisory function, which provides for control and registration actions, is assigned to the Ministry of the Interior (regional divisions) in accordance with Government Decree No. 716 of August 19, 2013 “On federal state supervision in the field of road safety”. At the same time, certification and issuance of relevant documents is carried out by companies that have permission from state bodies to conduct expert checks in the field of changing car designs and compliance with these changes with the rules for the safe operation of a vehicle. And they register converted cars in the traffic police departments.

What documents are guided by the traffic police?

In 2016, the General Directorate for Road Safety provided recommendations on the registration and re-registration of vehicles with technical changes made to the design. The need for such clarifications arose due to changes in the registration procedure. The main documents that are currently guided by the local traffic police departments when registering (reissuing) a vehicle are:

Letter No. 13/5-8230 “On the submission of methodological recommendations”, compiled by the Main Directorate of the Road Traffic Safety Inspectorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation;
Technical Regulations of the Customs Union "On the safety of wheeled vehicles" and Appendix No. 18 to the Technical Regulations, containing the form of a certificate of compliance of the machine with safety requirements.

Chapter 5 of the Technical Regulations states that the vehicle must pass 2 examinations. A preliminary examination is necessary to establish the technical possibilities under which the re-equipment will not violate the current technical regulations. The re-examination is responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle after changes made to its design. The document also lists cases in which a vehicle check is not required. This is the installation of components “designed for this vehicle and passed the conformity assessment as part of this vehicle, which is confirmed by the manufacturer's documentation; provided by the vehicle manufacturer in the operational documentation.

Liability for unregistered conversions

For car owners who leave with unregistered changes in the design of a car, punishment is provided for in the Code of Administrative Offenses. Article 12.5 refers to the Appendix, which contains a list of situations in which the operation of the machine is prohibited. They also include some design changes made in violation of the rules. When checking on the roads, the car owner for the first time can simply be warned that his car requires expert certification and re-registration, or a fine of 500 rubles can be issued. Such punishment is provided for in paragraph 1 of Article 12.5. More serious violations are spelled out in paragraph 3, which provides for deprivation of rights for 6-12 months with confiscation of unregistered equipment. For example, a gas cylinder system without permits can be seized, and the car sent to a penalty parking lot.
