DRIVER'S LICENSES WILL BECOME ELECTRONIC

At the same time, at the initial stage, drivers will be able to use electronic rights only in a test mode, since at the moment changes in legislative regulation are required that would consolidate the legal status of electronic driver's licenses – amendments to the traffic regulations will be prepared for these purposes.

As part of the digitalization project, users have already received the opportunity to electronically register an accident through the application "State Auto Services". 

The innovations announced by Chernikov suggest, among other things, also registration of electronic STS, registration of electronic transactions of purchase and sale of vehicles, registration of cars, payment and contesting fines, etc.

By the way, earlier the electronic driver's license system was launched in Arizona, USA – where users can present their rights using the Apple Wallet application.

Thus, in the near future, innovations will provide drivers with greater convenience of storing documents, although at the initial stage it is still recommended to have the original driver's license with you.
