validity period for OSAGO according to the law

27.06.2022 /

Traffic safety depends not only on the knowledge of traffic rules, but also on the technical condition of the vehicle. The diagnostic card is a document confirming that the car is fully serviceable and in good technical condition.

You can get a diagnostic card based on the results of the technical inspection. Inspection until 2012, all vehicle owners were required to pass annually. However, at the moment, changes have come into force, which we will talk about in this article on the Vodi.su autoportal.

The validity period of a diagnostic card is determined by several factors:

  • vehicle category;
  • its age - please note that the age is calculated from the date of production, and not from the moment of purchase;
  • for what purposes the vehicle is used - personal transport, official, passenger, for the transport of dangerous goods.

Maintenance for vehicles of category "A", "B", "C1", "M"

If you own a personal car, moped or motorcycle, the diagnostic card is valid for:

  • three years for new vehicles - the card is given to you in the cabin, it confirms that the car is new and serviceable;
  • two years - for vehicles aged three to seven years;
  • year - for cars or motorcycles older than seven years.

That is, it will be necessary to undergo MOT for 3, 5 and 7 years after purchase. Well, then every year.

Thus, when buying a new car in the showroom, be sure to ask when it left the assembly line. According to the new rules, for the first three years you can freely ride it without thinking about passing MOT.

Also, according to the new rules, traffic police officers do not have the right to demand a TO ticket or a diagnostic card. They are needed only for registration of the OSAGO policy. That is, with an expired card, you will not be able to insure your car, respectively, a fine for the absence of OSAGO will be charged under the Code of Administrative Offenses 12.37 part 2 - 800 rubles.

Please note: when buying a car from hand, it is necessary to pass MOT, even if the card is not expired. Then the frequency is determined based on the age of the vehicle.

Maintenance for vehicles "C" and "D"

Vehicles for the carriage of passengers must undergo technical inspections every six months. This applies to any type of vehicle, even minivans with more than eight seats. The same applies to goods vehicles that are used to transport dangerous goods.

Personal cargo or passenger transport (for example, a minibus for 8-16 seats), which is used for personal purposes, undergoes maintenance once a year.

Trams and trolleybuses, allocated in a separate category, are also inspected every six months. The same applies to taxis.

Obtaining a diagnostic card

With the change in the rules for passing MOT, getting a card will not be difficult. If earlier it was necessary to go to the MREO and wait in line, today in any big city there are dozens of inspection points.

The cost of the service for 2015 is in the range of 300-800 rubles for cars and motor vehicles, and up to 1000 rubles. for passenger and freight. From the documents you need to present only a personal passport and STS.

Check the following systems:

  • active and passive safety systems;
  • brakes;
  • complete set - first aid kit, fire extinguisher, spare tire or dokatka, warning triangle;
  • tire condition, tread height;
  • steering gear.

Particular attention is paid to the condition of the windshield. So, if there is a crack on the driver's side, MOT may not pass. Cracks on the passenger side are not of such importance.

Pay attention to an important fact: the diagnostic card is filled in by the master and is responsible for the correctness of the entered data. That is, if the car has an accident due to a technical malfunction, then he will be responsible if it turns out that the maintenance was carried out with violations. In particular, the insurance company may require the service station to pay the amount of damage. Therefore, you can buy a ready-made card, but it will be considered fake and serious technical centers do not offer such a service.

If any malfunctions are found during the diagnostic process, the driver is given 20 days to eliminate it. Then he has to go through MOT again.

Each card has a unique number, which is entered into the EAISTO unified electronic database. Using it, you can check the entire history of the passage of MOT by the VIN-code.
