It was proposed to start checking OSAGO policies with traffic cameras in March

The experiment is planned for one year and will aim to identify drivers without insurance policies and subsequently report violations. Once the system is developed, fines can be issued to violators, the agency writes.

According to him, the Ministry of the Interior must present a report to the government by November 1 on the possibility of carrying out the experiment.

“The insurance community supports the experiment,” Evgeny Ufimtsev, president of the Russian Union of Automobile Insurers, told Interfax. According to him, about 10% of the 36 million drivers in Russia drive without a policy.

Previously, the Central Bank reported that the number of regions with a high level of fraud in compulsory automobile third-party liability insurance has significantly decreased. If last year there were 10, now there are 4: Ingushetia, Dagestan, Chechnya and the Novosibirsk region.

In early September, the Bank of Russia announced plans to change the limits of the tariff corridor for compulsory automobile third-party liability insurance for some types of transport. The changes will affect the cost of insurance for public transport: trolleybuses, trams, buses, as well as motorcycles and trucks with a maximum permitted weight of up to 16 tons.
