What you need to carry in the car. All about the mandatory set of motorists

16.04.2019

This article is enlightened for beginners, today we will talk about the documents that you must always carry with you in the car. Without them, you are entitled to either a large fine, or even evacuation of the car to a fine parking lot. So read to the end, there will be a lot of interesting ...


As you understand, such a document as rights does not yet give you the right to drive any car of your category, because now there are a couple more necessary “papers” without which you simply cannot move around the city. However, let's start with all the documents that a motorist has.

Full list

Oddly enough, but the documents are decent, both for the car itself, and for an identity card and a permit to drive.

1) Identity passport . Without it, nowhere. You will not be able to insure a car, or pass on the rights, or buy a car. Generally needed.

2) Medical certificate . Needed to apply for a driver's license. Required document.

3) Driver card . It notes your educational process, as well as retakes and admissions. It is issued by the educational institution where you study. Drivers with category "D" (bus) often have "on hand".

4) Driver license . Without them, you will not be able to drive a vehicle.

5) PTS (passport technical means), issued to the machine upon release. You enter there when you buy it.

6) Vehicle registration certificate . Issued to you by your traffic police department, issued on the basis of the TCP.

7) Insurance policy . It is issued for car insurance, mandatory by law, for all types of road transport.

8) MOT (technical inspection) card . Now they require an insurance policy for issuance, without it you will not be renewed for the next year.

These are the main documents of any driver, it turns out a "considerable pile." However, do you need to carry everything with you in the car? Of course not, now I will list only the necessary ones.

What do we carry with us?

In order to freely drive the machine, you need to have several important documents and permits.

1) Rights , of course, without them nowhere. It marks the category for which you passed, that is, if you only have a "B", you cannot drive a bus ("D"), or a truck ("C"). Without this document, if you are stopped by a traffic police officer, your car can be arrested for a parking fine. So availability is a MUST! Also watch - and not overdue.


2) Insurance . Also, without it, nowhere, the legal system is so arranged - that this insurance policy protects us from accidents, therefore, according to the law, it is mandatory. It is also a kind of power of attorney, that is, everyone who is included in it can drive the car. If it is not there, a large fine, and they can also drive the vehicle to a fine parking lot. So you need to carry.


3) Vehicle registration certificate . This "paper" (which is rolled up in mica) is also a must. In fact, this is a kind of copy of the TCP and it can decide whether your car is or not. If you don’t have this “card”, then this may mean that you took the car without asking, and even worse, you stole it. It's not far from a criminal case.


It is these three important documents that you MUST take with you, then there will be no problems.

Other drivers

It should be noted that professional drivers, you need to carry a “larger list” with you. So, for example, bus drivers are required to have a medical certificate, as well as a “driver card” and a MOT (technical inspection) pass. Intervals, confirmations of these "disciplines" they have much more often than ordinary drivers. The GAZelle drivers are especially strictly monitored, because it is often unclear who works in these places!

I also want to say - guys never leave these listed papers in the car (the only thing you can do is "insurance"). They are very important and if you lose them or they are stolen. That is quite problematic to restore, and “dreary”. Also, if the car is stolen, the hijacker will have access to drive the vehicle for a short (but important) period of time. Do not store also plastic cards and money. Buy a small bag and put everything in it, and be sure to carry it with you (girls always have these with them)

Now short video, look.

On this I will end the article, newcomers filmed and written just for you.

1. According to traffic rules

Sign emergency stop, fire extinguisher and first aid kit are included mandatory set. However, not everyone has them! Therefore, we recall that cars must be equipped with at least one powder or halon fire extinguisher with a capacity of at least 2 liters (i.e. a small spray will not work). In addition, control the expiration date of the fire extinguisher and its pressure (if a pressure gauge is available).

When choosing an emergency stop sign, saving is not recommended. It is better to take signs with a metal base, which will prevent it from blowing off at the slightest gust of wind.

As for the first-aid kit, then everything is not so simple. In 2010, Russia approved the composition car first aid kits, which does not include any (!) drugs. Now there are only bandages, tourniquets and adhesive plasters. What to do if a person has a heart attack? It’s not a good idea to treat him with a plaster ... Yes, it’s also good to have pills for headaches or diarrhea with you. Auto Mail.Ru, after consulting with doctors, compiled its own list of medicines that should be kept in a first-aid kit.

  • Hydrogen peroxide is a universal antiseptic and hemostatic agent for the primary treatment of surfaces contaminated with biomaterials (should not be expired, and the bottle should be replaced after each use so as not to run out of steam).
  • "Paracetamol" or analogues - low-toxic analgesic and antipyretic.
  • "Captopril" 25 mg is an oral remedy for ambulance with a rise in pressure.
  • Nitroglycerin, sublingual tablets or capsules - ambulance with angina pectoris and myocardial infarction.
  • A solution of adrenaline for injection with a syringe - for the relief of a severe attack of allergies or asthma. De facto, it is practically impossible to get it (in the civilized world it is sold in the form of injectors similar to a fountain pen - EpiPen and other brands), so "Loratadine" in tablets (for allergies) and "Salbutamol" in an inhaler (for asthma) can become a replacement.
  • Any antacid (Maalox, Rennie, Gastal, etc.) is a safe remedy for relieving stomach pain and heartburn.
  • Drugs against diarrhea ("Loperamide" or analogues).
  • "Artificial tear" - for washing the eye in case of injury or ingestion of a foreign body.
  • "Oxymetazoline" (spray) or analogues - against the common cold.
  • Spray from burns ("Panthenol" or analogues).
  • A small syringe (for washing anything, sucking mucus from the respiratory tract of a newborn during childbirth on the way).
  • Condoms (in addition to their direct purpose, they can be used for an occlusive dressing and as a container for water).
  • Brief and clear instructions for use with a description of the symptoms for which drugs should be used.
  • Tweezers (to get a foreign body).

2. Flashlight

Be sure to buy a small flashlight and put it in the glove compartment. We know that any smartphone can now perform its function, but do not forget that it decently drains the battery. And periodically change the batteries in the flashlight!

3. "Set for a traffic cop"

Be sure to put a small folder in the glove compartment, where there will be several sheets of A4 paper and a blue or black fountain pen. After all, if you have to write, for example, an explanation to the traffic police, fill out a form about an accident or any statements, then all this may come in handy.

4. Tool kit, gloves, wipes, wires and cable

5. Utility knife

It is often referred to as "Swiss". In addition to the blade itself, it would be nice if it had a bottle opener and a corkscrew.

6. Go small

A mini dry closet can save the honor of not only the driver, but also the passengers. It is a small bag with special absorbents, where you can relieve a small need without attracting attention. It is especially important to have such a thing for parents who travel with small children. Price - 300-600 rubles.

7. Phone wire

IN modern world more and more drivers are becoming "energy dependent" - the batteries on smartphones are discharged before our eyes. Therefore, always keep a wire for recharging your phone in your car (you can now find a lot of cheap, non-original ones in stores). Well, if your car does not have a USB connector, then buy an adapter for the cigarette lighter as well.

8. DVR

Thanks to him, you can always understand who was to blame for the accident, protect yourself in the event of a "set-up", and in some cases even save yourself from imprisonment. Yes, and in a dispute with traffic cops, you can always prove your case. Now there is a huge number of various DVRs on the market - some cost "penny", the price of others exceeds 20 thousand rubles.

9. Phones for "just in case"

Write down some useful phone numbers on the card: your insurance company, a store selling parts for your model, a car service, a towing service, a lawyer (if you have one), a mobile tire service, a taxi, " sober driver, services technical assistance on road. And not only your city, but also the coordinates of organizations that work throughout Russia (for example, car clubs - even if you are not a member of them, they will come to your aid, for money, of course).

10. Cleanliness for headlights

That is why the headlights should be cleaned before every trip! For this, special spray guns with a rubber brush are best suited. I sprayed a few times on the headlight and then removed all the dirt.

Modern cars offer high level comfort and reliability, but anything can happen on the road. Today we will tell you what should be in any car - regardless of the brand, price and driver.

Of course, each driver has his own opinion about the configuration of the car, but we will try to select the really important and necessary things.

Mandatory List

The most important - mandatory documents that , as well as your peace of mind. For 2018-2019 the list includes:

  1. driver's license;
  2. car insurance;
  3. vehicle registration certificate.

Please note that it does not have to be in the car - it is even recommended to keep it at home. In addition, the vehicle must contain items approved by law:


What will be useful on the road?

The rest of the list of items and things is not required by law, but is very useful and can help out in difficult times.

Spare wheel and jack. A punctured wheel can be changed in 10-20 minutes, calmly drive to a tire shop and continue the trip. If there is no spare wheel and jack, you will have to call a tow truck, for a long time wait for it (especially if the breakdown occurred on the highway), and spend a lot of money.

Pump. Sometimes the tire deflates slowly and we head to the tire shop. But if a similar problem catches you on the road, you will definitely need a pump. Compressor or mechanical - there is no consensus, both are better. Moreover, tire pressure important indicator on which safety and fuel consumption depend. With a good pump with accurate pressure measurement, you can inflate the tires with the same pressure and be calm on a long trip.

Tow rope. Yes, you will almost certainly not break down and the trip will end successfully, but the cable must be in the car with mechanical box gears. Vehicles with automatic transmission gears can be towed up to 30-40 km at speeds up to 30-40 km / h, although it is better to play it safe and call a tow truck.

Keys and tools. This is especially true for long trips, in which a set of necessary tools will not interfere with you: screwdrivers, keys, pliers, etc. Each driver should have a rough understanding of what he may need and what size keys to take. Most best option- the so-called ratchet key and a set of nozzles for it.

Brush and scraper - necessary tools V winter time. While the car is warming up, you will have time to clear it of snow and icing.

If you are going to long journey, for a picnic, fishing or nature, it is recommended to expand the equipment of the machine.

A shovel or sapper shovel is a universal tool that will help you “dig out” a car if it gets stuck in snow or mud, and is also useful for other purposes.

Motor oil, antifreeze, antifreeze, anti-freeze - liquids sometimes run out, and it is better to replenish them in a timely manner.

Flashlight. Unforeseen situations happen at different times of the day, and night is no exception. If you have a bright standalone flashlight, it will make the task much easier.

Lighting wires. The battery is discharged unexpectedly and at the most inopportune moment, and without it, as you know, starting a car is problematic. In this case, the ignition wires will help - the car will start from the battery of another car, and you can continue on your way.

Other: a knife, matches, gloves, adhesive tape, towels, rags, water, food, money and much more - turn on your imagination, remember what you and your friends once missed.

Electronics - in the car!

It's the 21st century, and a variety of electronics is an integral part of it. Many drivers buy the following devices in their car:

  • Navigator - will build a route, show a detour of traffic jams, warn about radars and perform a variety of tasks. useful features. Read more about choosing a navigator in.
  • A printed version of the route if you are traveling far. It contains intermediate settlements, distances and approximate travel time. You can get such a printout on our service for calculating distances.
  • DVR - will film everything that happens on the road. You will always have proof of your innocence in the event of a “setup” on the road or a regular accident.
  • Anti-radar, which will warn about speed cameras and radars of traffic police officers.
  • The radio is a tool mainly for truckers who talk to each other, share advice, knowledge and anecdotes. The walkie-talkie is also used by drivers who want to know traffic situation ahead. Moreover, the device will help to contact people in case of problems with cellular communication or a discharged phone.
  • Charging for a phone or smartphone (charger cord + cigarette lighter adapter). As a rule, the adapter is very cheap, but in a difficult situation it can be great to help out and charge your smartphone from the cigarette lighter so that you can contact someone.
  • Breathalyzer. Some drivers are afraid of losing their rights, money and nerves due to the fact that a traffic police officer may ask for "". We are not talking about violators of the law and unscrupulous drivers, but about those who, for example, drank two days ago and are afraid that alcohol is still in their blood. Whatever the situation, a personal breathalyzer will show the level of alcohol and give an answer to the question - can you drive or not.

This is where the list of things needed in the car ends. If you have any ideas and tips, be sure to share them in the comments.

what people carry with them in their cars. I really love the program of Bear Grylls, who I respect, and the topics of survival that he touches on in his programs are interesting to me. Smart people teach me to be prudent in everything, and this cannot but be imprinted in my mind. The usual set of a motorist is rather meager - a fire extinguisher, a first aid kit (which does not contain half of the necessary drugs and means), a jack, a spare tire, a set of keys, crocodiles for lighting. I have nothing to do, I climbed the forums where jeepers and people who spend a lot of time on the road and outside the city communicate. The lists of some are impressive, and for myself I made a list of things that it is desirable to have in the car, some of which were already there, and some of which were transferred to the trunk:
For auto:
1. Fire extinguisher, first aid kit, jack, AO sign
2. Work gloves with pimples
3. Scotch tape
4. 5 liter metal canister with water (compact)
5. Plastic box for tools from AUCHAN (so far empty)
6. Roll of napkins
7. Wiping cloths
8. Small sapper shovel
9. Knife

For myself:
1. Old jeans, sweatshirt, spare T-shirt, socks, shorts
2. Drinking water, 2 bottles of 1.5 liters
3. Dry noodles Rolton + croutons "3 crusts"
4. A bottle of vodka (you thought wrong))), I carry it for wiping the interior and disinfecting hands)
5. A set of plastic dishes for several people

Here you can read an instructive story from my friend, who, after these events, carries a 10-ton cable with him. Of course, many may say that if the driver's blood alcohol level did not exceed the maximum allowable norms(in other words, if the driver were not "blue"), none of this would have happened.

But facts are stubborn things, and this is what we have in the bottom line: a summer night, a forest, a stuck car, lost, slightly blue city dwellers.

You can analyze their actions, and then play a couple of other options (in case there were some things in their car). For myself, I sketched a small list of what you need to have in the car just in case of an emergency.

Option 1 (as it was). They tried to rock the car (as any driver does in the first place when the car gets stuck). They say that it is easier to do this on the mechanics. Did not work out. Then, knowing from the films that are shown on the Russian Extreme channel that in such cases logs are placed under the wheels, they unsuccessfully tried to find them in the forest. But there were only thin branches that did not fit, it was the logs that were needed. But as you understand, no one will prudently leave such bundles in the clearing for you. No one probably thinks so, being in the forest on vacation: "The barbecue was good, and I gathered a lot of mushrooms, but I still have a lot of time and effort left, and I, perhaps, will try my new saw with an ax, cut logs, maybe someone will come in handy. And then suddenly someone blue will go for a ride here at 12 o'clock at night in a car and get stuck. " As a result, they went through the night forest without lanterns (Bear in this case would have made a torch from spruce branches or pine resin, and would have lit his way). Also, they did not have a cable, they had to make do with what was found in the back of the ZILka. They did not illuminate the scene of action and, as a result, in the dark they smashed rear glass, for which I had to ship 6,000 rubles.

Option 2.
If they had a battery-powered remote lamp, they would install it, assess the extent of the problem, and take action.
If they had a shovel, they could dig somewhere, throw up land.
If they had a folding saw or an axe, then they could cut a small tree lying down, and they would be ready to support under the wheels.
If they had a flashlight, they wouldn't have to light up the road with their cell phones.
If any of them were Bear Grylls, they would make themselves a shelter, get food and spend the night.
If they had food, sleeping bags, warm clothes, then Bear Grylls would not be needed there.
If they had a winch, then all of the above would not be needed at all.
If they had at least one bottle of vodka, then along with the above, a winch would not be needed :)))

What documents should the driver have with him? What must be carried in the car?

The question of what documents you need to carry with you in the car arises for many motorists. You can, of course, store the entire set in the glove compartment, but the risk of losing them is too great, and it will take a lot of time and money to restore them. Therefore, keep only the documents required for verification with you. And what concerns them we will tell further.

List of required documents

To drive a car, the driver must have the following documents with him:

  1. Driver's license. This is the most important document driver, without which you can not drive. The rights indicate the basic data of the motorist and open category(for example, "B").
  2. . This document is checked by traffic police inspectors at each stop vehicle. It is important that the insurance is valid and the driver is included in it. If you have a CASCO insurance policy, also carry it with you.
  3. . Plastic STS indicates the owner of the car. Thanks to this document, the inspector will make sure that the car is not stolen.

In the absence of these documents, the driver faces a fine:

    for lack of rights - 500 rubles;

    for the absence of STS - 500 rubles;

    for the absence of a policy - 500 rubles.

And this is the minimum punishment that threatens the driver. Other penalties are also possible:

    for the lack of rights, provided that they are overdue or have not actually been received - from 5,000 to 15,000 rubles;

    for lack of rights upon their deprivation - 30,000 rubles, arrest for 15 days or compulsory work for up to 400 hours;

    for, provided that the policy is overdue or has not been received - 800 rubles.

If the driver does not have documents, then the inspector makes a database query to check the actual availability of rights or a policy. According to the information received, a protocol is drawn up and the responsibility of the violator is determined.

What documents do you need to keep with you?

There is no need to bring other documents with you. And the traffic police inspector has no right to demand them:

  • PTS. Always leave your car passport at home. If you lose it, you will have to spend a lot of time recovering it.
  • Medical certificate. It is only required for drivers. public transport. Otherwise, you can leave it at home.
  • Power of attorney. We recommend keeping it with you in the car, but it is not necessary. In any case, the inspector's power of attorney cannot be required.
  • . It is also optional and is requested only when applying for an OSAGO policy.

Now you know what documents every driver should have with him. Don't forget them at home so you don't have to pay a fine.
