called Power of Attorney document which authorizes a certain person to represent the interests of another person or organization to anyone.The power of attorney for the right to drive a car is the official permission of the owner of car for all the steps in the power of attorney: driving a car, passing MOT, insurance it as property, right up to the sale.According to the law, transactions requiring notarization, may only be on the notarized power of attorney.The possible deal with the machine (the sale, registration and insurance t. N.) Do not belong to this category.Therefore, the transfer of ownership to another person until recently was widely used conventional handwritten letter of attorney.
What is this popular in the Russian document?Handwritten warrant for cars could be issued on a special form, indicating the name and passport details of the principal and the proxy, as well as the brand and number of the car, year, color, serial number, engine, body and chassis numbers of TCP or simply written by hand on a regulara piece of paper.Of course, no such document contain the seals could not, it was limited to the signatures of the parties.
Despite the fact that, strictly speaking, this document had the dubious validity (when going abroad turned into a meaningless piece of paper) and could easily be tampered with, he was extremely popular among the people.Handwritten authorization applies even when selling the car - instead of reissuing the car to the new owner and the registration of the transaction to a subscribed power of attorney (sometimes called the general, but the essence remains the same).The problems started later - if the new owner got into an accident with damage to third parties, or render implicated in criminal cases.More often than not had to pay damages to the official "continue" owner.
In November 2012 Russian Government Resolution № 1156 there have been some amendments to the SDA.Handwritten power of attorney for driving a car has been canceled.Now, in addition to the driver's license and the certificate of registration of the vehicle, the driver of a vehicle shall be available only insurance policy.And it can be inscribed in this policy, or the policy may be not limited to the circle of persons who are admitted to driving.
In addition, there are also some changes relating to powers of attorney.To pick up the car with the free parking lot, now we need to come to the owner (or do it on the notarized power of attorney).The same applies to transactions with a car - sale, registration or removal.Handwritten attorney in these cases is no longer valid, only notarized.Also, only notarized power of attorney, you can go abroad in a foreign car.
It is not clear from the new document, inspectors will identify the hijackers, if, for example, the name of the driver the car is not present even in the insurance policy?And who is punished for the accident?Obviously, the mechanism for resolving such issues yet to be developed.
If the car is involved in freight traffic, the driver, among other things, we still have the power of attorney for shipping.This document is often overlooked.In its absence, the driver will prove very difficult to stop him inspector that the goods are not stolen.In most cases the car detained together with the load to ascertain the circumstances.To confirm the validity of the situation on the spot has to call the owner of the cargo, which leads to loss of time and material losses, especially if the cargo is perishable.
Thus, in the absence of documents confirming the ownership of the goods, the power of attorney is required for its transportation.Organizations engaged in cargo transportation, usually draw up such a power of attorney on form M-2a with registration in the book of powers of attorney.This power of attorney must be completed in full and contain a specimen signature of the person to whom discharged.The power of attorney can be canceled at any time.In case of failure it must be returned immediately to the principal.
