Changes in 2021 in the procedure for conducting the exam in the traffic police

The Government of the Russian Federation has made major changes to the rules for passing driving license exams at the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate in 2021. Resolution No. 1734B was signed by management on December 20, 2019.

Some changes came into force on January 1, 2020, while others will take effect from October 1.

Changes in driving license exams from January 1, 2020

the ban on driving on highways during school has been lifted;
Only citizens over 20 years old can now obtain a license for a bus, tram or trolleybus (previously it was allowed from 16 years old);
if your driver's license is revoked, it will not be returned until all fines are paid;
If the driving school does not have a license, then students are not allowed to take the exam at the traffic police.

Changes in taking exams from October 1, 2020

Abolition of the “platform”

From October 2021, it is planned to eliminate the “platform” from exams.

Let us remind you that now the practical driving test includes driving on the “platform” and driving in the city.

“Site” is a place where cadets show examiners their primary driving skills, such as “snake”, “parking”, the ability to drive and maneuver a car. After passing the “platform”, cadets usually go to the city and demonstrate driving in real traffic.

The “platform” will be eliminated, and the test of minimum driving skills will complement the practical test in urban traffic conditions.

Standard exam routes will be cancelled.

The licensing exams will be held within certain streets in your city, which will not be known to you in advance. This way you won't be able to learn the route.

The duration of the practical driving test is 30 minutes.

Cancellation of penalty points

It is planned to cancel penalty points when passing the practical exam. Previously, it was possible to receive a maximum of 5 “penalty” points (minor violation - 1 point, medium - 3, dangerous - 5 points). This system will be abolished.

Passing the theoretical part of the traffic rules

The theoretical knowledge of cadets will be assessed in a new way.

that do not affect safety will most likely be removed from traffic rules tickets , such as “how fuel consumption increases when accelerating in a certain gear.”

But! Ticket topics will be carefully checked and analyzed, errors in which are unacceptable in real life and can lead to serious consequences (traffic rules at intersections, how and where to overtake, etc.). It will be impossible to make mistakes in such questions and any incorrect answer will be counted as failure of the exam.

Less critical theoretical questions will be assessed less rigorously.

The total number of questions in the theoretical part of the exam will increase and will consist of the following main blocks :

“Road Rules (TRAF)”;
“Safe driving. Basics”;
"Legislation";
"Medicine";
"Psychology";
“Vehicle device”;
“Professional block”.

Cancellation of exam results

From October 1, 2021, it will be possible to cancel the results of the exam when passing the license. To do this, you need to complain about an incorrect negative rating that you do not agree with.

In turn, the traffic police will also be able to cancel positive exam results in the event of any fraud (fake cadet medical certificate, etc.).

What will be the deadlines for retaking exams?

After a failed attempt to pass the exam for the first time, the theory can be retaken no earlier than 7 days and no later than 30 days after the previous attempt. The driving test can be retaken no earlier than 7 days and no later than 60 days .

Important! If the cadet does not pass the test for the third time, a retake is scheduled no earlier than 1 month, but no later than 3 months.

What were the changes in 2021?

In 2021, the law was amended so that driver candidates now take tests under the new rules.

The traffic police have expanded the list of grounds for refusing admission to exams. For example, if a driving school does not have a conclusion at the time of admitting a student, then the student may be denied access to the exams.
The traffic police gave permission for training driving on highways.
On-site testing has been canceled and a single exam has been introduced.
For motorcycles, it is possible to take the exam on sections of roads or areas restricted for the movement of other vehicles and pedestrians. It is possible that motorcyclists will be asked to ride on something longer than 20 meters.
The retake deadlines have changed. New deadlines: no later than 30 days for theory and no later than 60 days for practice.
There have been changes to the traffic rules for training driving. The terms “driving teacher” and “driving learner” .
Foreigners will be able to take the exam not only at their place of registration.

What were the changes in 2021?

It has become possible to take the exam at the traffic police at the actual place of stay, and not at the place of registration, as it was before.
Only people who have officially studied at a driving school and paid for the services of an instructor are now allowed to take the exams.
The requirements for the qualifications of driving instructors have also been tightened: they must be at least 25 years old, have 5 years of driving experience , a proper driving category and higher education.
The minimum age for candidates for driving license has been lowered - it is now 16 years old instead of 18. However, this will require the written consent of one of the parents.
It is also possible to choose the car in which you plan to take the exam - it can be a car with a manual transmission or an automatic one. There is such a nuance here: if you received a license to drive a vehicle with an automatic transmission, then to drive a car with a manual transmission you will have to obtain another document.
The new rules also indicate how long after passing the theoretical exam the results will be valid. Now this period is 6 months - during this period it is possible to take driving practice at any selected traffic police department.
For disabled people, delivery is now possible in specially equipped vehicles.

It has become possible to submit an application to take the exam remotely - using the websites of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate or State Services.

What documents are needed to take the exam?

To obtain a driver's license, the following documents are required:

Passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation.
Application (can be sent by email).
Conclusion on passing the medical examination.
Certificate of completion of a driving school.
If the person taking the exam is under 18 years of age, written parental consent is required.
Receipt of payment of the state fee (it is not necessary to take it to the exam).

How is the traffic police exam conducted?

After completing the theoretical and practical training , which usually lasts about 3-5 months, you can begin the exam process.

The traffic police exam consists of several parts:

Theoretical part. Includes 20 questions . If mistakes are made, then for each one you are given 5 additional questions - you can no longer make mistakes. In total, in theory, 2 errors are allowed, and only in different blocks. The theoretical part takes 20 minutes + 5 minutes for additional questions if there are errors.
Driving practice on the race track. (To be abolished in October 2021). 5 out of 6 exercises are performed in 20 minutes in specially designated and marked areas.
Driving practice in urban conditions. The subject drives into the city by car and strictly follows the inspector’s instructions.

What should you consider when driving on a race track?

In practice, you can often find race tracks whose surface has a slight slope. That is, the race track is not a horizontal platform, but is a “small overpass.” This factor can have a serious impact on exercise performance. The car may unexpectedly roll away on a seemingly level surface for the student, and this may result in failure of the exam.

This problem can be solved in advance. When learning to drive on a racetrack, you should remember the terrain of the racetrack and, when passing the exam at the traffic police, perform exercises taking into account the existing slope. Those. In some places you need to apply the brake early, and in others you need to hold it longer.

How to pass the theory in the traffic police on the first try?

To successfully pass the theory on a computer, and even on the first try , you need to prepare and study the following areas:

Traffic rules of the Russian Federation.
Laws of Russia that relate to road safety.
Rules for providing first aid to people involved in an accident.
Rules for admitting a vehicle to operation.
Driver liability laws.
Basics of safe driving.

40 tickets in total , the text of which must be carefully memorized. Questions on various topics are randomly distributed.

In this test you will only have 20 minutes to answer 20 questions. If you make one mistake, five more questions are added, the answers to which cannot be mistaken. If two mistakes are made in different blocks, then 10 questions are added, which must be solved in ten minutes. If two errors are made in one block, the primary exam is considered failed.

Important! Applications on your phone with tickets and a simulator help you prepare well for the exam and quickly remember the traffic rules. For example, applications such as “Traffic Tickets 2020” and “UchiTraffic Rules”, as well as others! You can easily download them through the Play Store or Apple Store .

Many resources post various tricks and secrets on how to pass the traffic police exam in one go, but we strongly do not recommend using them. All exams are now recorded on camera. Many people get caught trying to cheat, because it is not difficult for the inspector to control the process of taking the test.

During the exam, try not to talk , actively gesticulate , or address the examiners abstain from sedatives , as there is a risk of failing the practice.

Autodrom

The special platform that examinees take at the state traffic inspectorate is no different from the one taught by instructors at a driving school. There is also a traffic order established by the rules. An applicant for a driver's license moves around the race track using the clutch (if the transmission is automatic, then each exercise is performed only with the use of the brake; only entering the overpass is performed with the gas).

This part of the exam in 2021 includes the following exercises:

overpass (an exercise to stop and start moving from a place uphill, on a slight slope);
sharp turns of 90 degrees, which are performed while the car is moving;
turning the car in a confined space (this tests the ability to sense the dimensions of the car);
snake (driving at low speed past cones that are located at the same distance from each other);
entering the garage using reverse gear and gradually leveling the car relative to the cones;
parallel parking (here the examinee independently fulfills the requirement to carefully park the car in a limited space).

During the second part of the exam, it is possible to make two mistakes; if the limit is exceeded, the candidate for driving license is not allowed to take the next part of the test.

How to correctly pass the garage and other tests of the traffic police exam on the site, learn from the video that can be found on the Internet; here all the methods for successfully passing the tests are described in detail for the persons being examined.

How to pass driving on a race track the first time

The practice begins with driving a car on a race track. This requires many hours of practice of generally accepted exercises. Here is a list of exercises, the correct execution of which will be checked by a traffic inspector:

stopping and starting movement on an incline - an overpass or a hill;
turning in a confined space;
snake;
entering the garage (boxing) in reverse;
parallel parking in reverse;
turns 90 degrees.

Do all the exercises slowly, but not too slowly . Try to position the car as level as possible , at a certain distance from the boundaries and pillars. In 2021, changes came into force that provide for the mandatory completion of five elements at the choice of the examiner.

Every driver must perform all these exercises perfectly. Driving schools do not always have enough time to sufficiently practice all the elements, so take additional lessons from an experienced instructor .

There is a list of gross violations that will not count towards the exam:

if you don’t move for more than half a minute;
drove over the border line more than twice or knocked down posts;
went beyond the boundaries of the exercise area;
crossed the stop line;
did not reach the control line;
did not follow the correct trajectory;
spent more than the allotted time;
the engine stopped more than 3 times;
on an ascent after stopping, the rollback is more than 30 centimeters;
ignored the red traffic light.

This part of the exam may be canceled on October 1, 2021.

How to successfully complete a site lease

During the exam, traffic police inspectors pay special attention to safety, since this is the key point in the subsequent operation of the vehicle by an inexperienced driver.

How to pass driving in the city right away

When the theoretical and practical exams at the race track have been successfully passed, the future driver is allowed to undergo testing in “combat” urban conditions . Not everyone passes this test, because it is impossible to predict exactly how the traffic situation will develop. We will tell you further how to pass the traffic police exam and how not to fail.

Driving in the city is assessed according to the following categories of errors :

significant;
medium importance;
minor.

For 1 significant error, 5 points , for an error of medium significance - 3 points , for a minor error - 1 point . If you score five or more points, the exam is considered failed. Therefore, significant mistakes cannot be made.

The penalty point system will be abolished on October 1, 2021.

Useful tips for passing exams

Before you start driving , adjust the seats and mirrors , start the engine, buckle up and turn on the low beams if the car does not have daytime running lights.
Make sure that all passengers are wearing seat belts , otherwise they may receive a three-point penalty. Now release the handbrake and start driving.
To successfully pass city driving, research the intended route in advance. Try to study the location of markings and signs so that this does not cause difficulties during the exam. If the training sessions are not enough, take paid additional lessons from the instructor. However, from October 1, 2021, rules will come into force whereby you will not know the route in advance.
Traffic inspectors like to be cunning by giving instructions that contradict traffic regulations . Therefore, filter all orders and carry out only those that do not contradict the rules. If they try to attribute to you a mistake that did not happen, apply your knowledge and prove that the rules were not violated. Do this discreetly and convincingly, referring to the required traffic rules clause.
Look in the mirrors , it is advisable to noticeably turn your head.
Be sure to use the handbrake , especially on hills.
Do not use a smartphone while driving - you may receive additional fine points for this.
During the traffic police exam, try not to worry or worry - after all, if you are well prepared, then everything will go smoothly.
If you have an exam soon, you should get a good night's sleep , otherwise your concentration may suffer.

Take the exam at the very beginning - rarely does anyone pass it from the back of the queue.

TIP #1. Cope with your anxiety.

This is the hardest part. Many students “with great hopes” lose their nerves at the sight of shoulder straps, their legs swell, and their hands go numb. My instructor once gave me great advice that was very useful to me during the exam. He said:

- You know everything, you can do everything. Imagine that you are a taxi driver, and the inspector is a passenger. He goes about his business and tells you where he needs to go.

And in fact, it’s not scary anymore.

The inspector will not ask you to do anything extraordinary. The whole exam just says “turn left”, yes “turn right”. Well, he’ll ask you to turn around a couple of times. Show him different turns: at an intersection (remember, you can only turn around where it is allowed to turn left), from curb to curb (on a wide three-lane road), in three steps (on narrow streets, for example, on Lenin and Chapaev streets) and using the surrounding area.

Real life story: An inspector asked one of the students from the Profi-DV school to turn around five or six times. She passed the exam, but afterward she asked her instructor: “How can this be? You said I would be asked to turn around no more than twice.” To which I received the answer: “The inspector wanted to look at different spreads. What did you do? It only turned around at intersections.”

What to do if you fail: retake

If you fail to pass the traffic police exam the first time, do not despair, because you can retake it an unlimited number of times . The first retake is possible 7 days after the first exam. It is also possible to retake a second time 7 days after an unsuccessful attempt. After three failures, a retake is possible one month from the date of the last failure. Subsequent attempts are also possible at intervals of at least a month .

Important! The theoretical exam is valid for 6 months . If the practice is not passed within six months, then the theory will have to be retaken .

You can also contact a familiar instructor at a driving school . He probably has contact with the inspector who takes exams for novice drivers. Many people who fail their driving test 5-10 times come to the conclusion that they won’t be able to do it on their own. Corruption in our country has grown so much that without a bribe, the right person sometimes has a hard time.

If you find such a person, then, as a rule, your participation in the test will boil down to “sit and don’t touch anything.” Of course, all responsibility for giving a bribe to an official during execution will fall on you .

Where to study for driving license

After the law changes come into force in 2021, it is necessary to take a responsible approach to choosing a driving school . In every city there are official licensed driving schools - these are the ones you should take training in. Be sure to check that you have a educational license

Self-learning to drive has become simply impossible - you need an official document confirming your graduation from an educational institution, without which you simply will not be given an exam.

Of course, you can try to buy a certificate of completion of courses, but this is a very dubious solution. If you lack practical and theoretical knowledge, you expose yourself, your loved ones and other people to great danger.

How and where can I buy rights and what is the price?

There are a lot of advertisements and links on the Internet about selling car licenses without training. Probably every car enthusiast has wondered: “Isn’t it easier to buy a license?”

It's simple: “Bam!” - and you are the driver.

Usually the phrase “buy rights” means “to bribe an official” so that he accepts the practical part with his eyes closed. You won't be able to give in and pass the theory (as a rule). The theory exam is recorded on camera, and you still have to study. The practical part also takes place under the camera, but usually while driving you are given easy tasks, and in some cases they even pull strings and control the car with a second set of pedals.

In this option, “failing to pass” simply won’t work!

So where can you buy the rights, and who should give it to them? First of all, we are obliged to write that this is illegal and threatens with Article 291 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - up to 2 years of imprisonment. If this does not scare you, then we advise you to contact your instructor, or find a third party on Avito or Yula. As a rule, a large number of instructors are former traffic police officers, and they have their own channels and strings that they can pull. This is the only method that you can use more or less safely. We do not recommend giving a bribe to an inspector under any circumstances!

We hope that such offers will not interest you. Normal training is simply impossible without a competent and experienced teacher. Well, friends and parents will not be able to teach you how to drive a car as well as a specially trained person. That is why it is now prohibited to take driving tests without completing training. With these innovations, the authorities are trying to reduce accidents on the roads.

Important! By carefully practicing your vehicle driving skills, you can learn to make the right decisions in an emergency situation. This is the key to the safety of your loved ones and other people around you.

What is the penalty for buying a fake driver's license?

Purchasing a car license is a serious offense for which you face inevitable liability - from administrative to criminal. When presenting a counterfeit to a traffic police officer, you automatically fall under Article 327 of the Criminal Code. This crime is punishable by a fine of up to 80,000 rubles, compulsory or correctional labor, and even arrest for up to six months. So we advise you not to take risks and not to shake with fear every time you check your documents.

In any case, purchasing a license will cost slightly more than taking the exams yourself. Therefore, we advise you to prepare well for the exams - “cram” the oral exam papers by heart. If you try to cheat or cheat in any other way, you may be kicked out of the test, which means you will have to retake it again. If you have the slightest doubt about your driving skills, take additional paid driving lessons and hone your skills.
