Every citizen of the country can sign up for the traffic police exam through State Services in 2021. This method is the most convenient and effective in all respects, and therefore its popularity is increasing every year. However, there are also some peculiarities that you need to know for successful recording.
The government services portal is an extremely functional website that has been operating for many years. With its help, citizens can receive various services from government authorities without spending a lot of time waiting in queues. Often, paying state fees on the website comes with a significant discount, which is an additional benefit.
Ways to pass the traffic police exam
For each driving school student, the traffic police exam becomes the final mandatory stage. Only upon successful completion will a driver's license be issued, with which you can drive a car.
In order to take the exam, you must first register with the traffic police.
Today this can be done in the following ways:
- come to the traffic police office in advance and fill out a written application to take the exam in the future;
- fill out an application on the government services website. The entire process is greatly accelerated because the main fields are filled in automatically.
The first option is used extremely rarely today and is an exception, because it is much easier, faster and more efficient to sign up through State Services.
IMPORTANT !!! In most cases, driving schools take care of most of the organizational issues and the entire group of students goes to the exam together. However, only the student himself can submit a personal application from the site, so you need to know how to do it correctly.
The organizational procedure for registering for an exam may vary slightly depending on the driving school, but the general provisions will be the same in any case.
ATTENTION !!! You should know that not all regions of the country have a government services website. Although in 2021, in almost every more or less large city, the service is already connected. It is necessary to clarify information for each specific locality.
Despite the simplicity and convenience of the service, it has some significant disadvantages:
- Many users of the site complain that it is often not accessible, crashes and has other problems. These problems are indeed present and seriously complicate work, but every year the number of problems decreases, which increases the stability of work;
- the need to upload electronic copies of documents. Not everyone has the opportunity to attach scans, so this condition can be a problem;
- The need to fill out all the documents yourself gives rise to some conflicts. Sometimes errors are made in the questionnaires, as a result of which the government authority cannot provide the service and the registration has to be done a second time;
- mandatory pre-registration. To use the site, you will need to create an account and then verify it by contacting a special institution. This makes the entire registration process relatively difficult.
Despite all the disadvantages, there are still more advantages, so it makes sense to use the site.
Deadline for registering for a driving test at the traffic police
The date and location of the exam will be given to you by a traffic police officer at the reception window after checking your documents. Unlike a theoretical exam, testing your driving skills is a more energy-intensive procedure, so you will have to wait for a free place in the queue for several weeks, or even months.
If you sign up for the exam through State Services, most likely you will take the internship on the same day. Getting a coupon for State Services for the nearest date is a great success, since appointments are usually booked for the next few months. To avoid having to wait long, check the portal from time to time for free registration slots.
You can sign up for State Services only for one day. If you already have a ticket, you will not be able to get a second one. The system will show that there are no places available for registration until you use the first ticket.
Deadlines for retaking the theory and driving exam:
- 1st and 2nd retake - no earlier than 7 days after a failed attempt;
- 3 and subsequent - no earlier than 30 days.
A driver candidate who has not passed one of the exams provided for in paragraph 9 of these Rules is not allowed to take the next exam; a repeat exam is scheduled no earlier than 7 days from the date of the previous one. For driver candidates who fail one of the exams on the third and subsequent attempts, a repeat exam is scheduled no earlier than 30 days later.
clause 11 of the Russian Federation Regulations dated October 24, 2014 N 1097
When to register for the exam
Passing an exam at the traffic police is not a regular action and cases when it is necessary to do this are enshrined in law.
Passing the traffic police exam is provided in the following cases:
- Immediately after driving school, when the student completes training, he receives a certificate and all that remains to obtain his license is to pass the exams. Today, training in a driving school, even formal, is a prerequisite, so it is impossible to obtain a driver’s license without a driving school;
- after being deprived of a license for driving while intoxicated. For drunk driving, the law stipulates not only the deprivation of rights for up to 2 years, but also the subsequent mandatory passing of a theory exam.
It is expected that exams should be passed on the first attempt, so if the exam is not passed, you will have to re-register through government services. One statement applies to all parts of the test: both the theory and the driving test.
If the attempt is unsuccessful, the retake will be postponed. You will be able to re-register no earlier than in a week, and then only in a month. Due to the fact that the theoretical exam is valid for only six months, with a large number of retakes, you will probably need to take all exams from scratch.
Where are qualifying exams taken?
In 2021, you can take qualifying exams at any examination unit in the country:
3. Conducting examinations for persons permanently residing in the Russian Federation, issuing Russian national and international driver’s licenses and exchanging foreign driver’s licenses are carried out in the departments of the State Traffic Inspectorate at the place of application of these persons.
If a driver temporarily resides or temporarily stays in the territory of the Russian Federation, then he can take exams only in the territory of the region where he lives or stays.
To select a suitable division, use the page on the official website of the traffic police: https://gibdd.rf/divisions/
In this form, you should select the region that is convenient for you, and in the “Government functions” column, check the box next to the line “Conducting exams for the right to drive a vehicle and issuing a driving license.” After this, click on the “Show subdivisions” button and you will receive a list of suitable traffic police departments.
Registration on the government services website
To register for the exam, you must have the full functionality of the government services website, which is provided only after verifying your account.
The initial account creation takes place within 5 minutes. The user provides his personal data, passport data, phone number and email address, after which a confirmation letter is sent. At this stage, the functionality of the site is significantly limited, and in order to unblock it you will have to confirm your identity.
This can be done using any of the methods given on the site. These vary depending on the region, but most often confirmation occurs in the following ways:
- submission of all required documents to the MFC. The center staff will take the scans, confirm the data on the website, after which an additional message will be sent. Instead of the MFC, such services are sometimes provided by other organizations, for example, banks;
- If there are no places in the city where confirmation takes place (although this is practically impossible), documents can be sent by mail. This method takes longer, and you will have to pay for the shipment itself.
Depending on the location of confirmation, the procedure can be either paid or free. The second option is more common.
