Today it remains to be seen what is the penalty for untimely registration of a vehicle. The thing is that this question is of interest to many drivers. And it’s not so easy to answer it. Drivers have special rules that must be observed if a person wants to have the right to drive a vehicle. Failure to comply with established requirements can lead to huge trouble. But which one? And how to register this or that vehicle? All this will be described later.
Right or obligation
To begin with, it’s worthwhile to figure out whether there is a general penalty for untimely registration of a car. As already mentioned, drivers have a variety of rules that allow you to get behind the wheel without any problems. In some cases, registration or inspection of the car can be avoided. But what about registration?
The thing is that this process is an obligation. According to the established rules, each car must be registered. Without observing this rule, you cannot drive on a vehicle on the road.
When to register
Before you find out what the penalty is for a late registration of a car, it is important to know in which situations you need to think about this process. And how often to bring it to life.
According to the established rules, registration is a single process. It is enough to spend it only once. And if there is no reason to re-register the car, you can no longer think about the process. Registration term is not limited.
But staging is necessary in the following cases:
- long travel outside the country;
- Long stay in another village;
- initial purchase of a car;
- change of ownership of the vehicle.
In all these situations, you will have to think about how to register the vehicle. But what punishment should be expected in this or that case?
What time is it
It is necessary to know that there is a penalty for untimely registration. But only first you have to understand how much time a citizen is given to the process. This is especially true of situations arising after the acquisition of a vehicle.
Have to hurry. After the conclusion of a transaction, the registration of the car should occur no later than 10 days later. More precisely, it is not necessary to have a registration, but to submit an application for initial registration or re-registration at the indicated time. Otherwise, a certain punishment will follow.
Fine for individuals
It is expressed in a fine. The size of the penalties will vary - it all depends on the specific situation. Often, the exact amounts are set at the regional level, and the law only regulates certain restrictions on the maximum and minimum payments.
Was an untimely registration of the car carried out? The 2016 fine established for individuals is from 1,500 to 2,000 rubles. You will have to pay it before the main registration procedure of the vehicle. Otherwise, the process will simply be denied.
It does not matter what kind of transport we are talking about. The thing is that all vehicles must be registered. This applies to buses, and passenger cars, and motorcycles. All vehicles with a motor and numbers must be registered with the traffic police.
Legal entities
What else to look for? It has already been said that the penalty for late registration with the STSI will differ depending on the status of a citizen. With individuals, ordinary drivers, everything is clear. But what about legal entities?
They will have to pay significantly more. Fine traffic police for late registration for vehicles in Russia in 2016 it is set in the range from 5 to 10 thousand rubles.
A small nuance - you will have to pay for each vehicle to be registered separately. This should be remembered by each legal entity of the Russian Federation.
Officials
But that is not all. In addition to the previously listed categories of citizens, in Russia among the payers can distinguish officials. They are fined for untimely registration of a vehicle in slightly different sizes.
Officials will have to pay a total of 2 to 3.5 thousand rubles. But, again, for each car separately. Perhaps these are all categories of the population that are subject to punishment in one way or another. The violator will learn more accurate information about the upcoming payment directly in the traffic police. As already mentioned, penalties are assigned individually. In practice, the most common punishment is in the maximum amount.
Encumbrance
But that is not all. Do not think that the lack of registration with a vehicle is the only punishment for a negligent driver. The rules dictated by the law establish a certain burden. It can cause a lot of trouble.
What is it about? Driving a vehicle that was not registered on time with the STSI is also a violation. It is fined. The driver who committed this oversight will be fined between 600 and 800 rubles. This is only for the initial detection of a violation.
It happens that even a fine does not motivate the driver to register with a traffic police of a vehicle. For re-driving a car that is not registered in the prescribed manner, a more serious penalty is imposed. Namely - a fine of up to 5,000 rubles.
In some cases, a driver's license may be taken away for re-driving without registration. How much? In this case, it is supposed to lose the driver's license for a maximum of 3 months. No one can say exactly which scenario will happen. But the driver should take into account all possible penalties.
Changes to the Rules
Now it’s clear what kind of penalty for untimely registration is imposed in a particular case. It has already been said that all cars must be registered with the traffic police. Some changes have recently occurred in Russia. They cause a lot of trouble to owners of motor vehicles. Why?
All due to the fact that from now on a greater number of vehicles is subject to registration. According to the established rules, owners of all-terrain vehicles and snowmobiles of a motorcycle category must apply to the traffic police for registration. A more complete list is recommended to find out directly in the traffic police. Then you can not be afraid of fines or driving deprivation.
