Now the traffic cops will get completely out of hand — they'll eat their fill and get bolder. Any little thing will become a reason to claim that you created an emergency situation: you stopped in an open field with your hazard lights on, or drove 15 km/h instead of the allowed five, and here, they say, at three in the morning village kids could have run out. In general, it will be tough. But that's okay, we'll get ours.
You need to have a good understanding of the rules and be able to argue your position convincingly — inspectors often get on your nerves and try to push you into a fine without real grounds.
Yes, it is worth rereading the book with the rules before November 17. At least a couple of times.
After November 17, it's better not to get behind the wheel at all without the "rules" in the glove compartment.

We chose this guy ourselves, and the traffic cops play along with him and stuff their pockets. In general, people are a wolf pack — whoever devours whom faster.

They'll find a reason to nitpick: stopped in an open field with hazard lights on — that means you created a hazardous situation; drove 15 km/h instead of the required five — you exceeded the speed limit. And what if children had run across at three in the morning? In short, it won't be easy, but we'll get our way.
milkweed told it cool!!!)))

go to hell all cops!!!
Honestly, I don't even know where to start with this issue. I have neither insurance, nor a fire extinguisher, nor a first aid kit — it's unclear how I've been driving up to this point. Now either I'll have to buy all of that, or get ready for the inspectors to take the last thing I have if it comes to a dispute. Such are our rules.
Actually, a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, and insurance are needed not by inspectors, but by the driver himself, and they should be purchased together with the car.
And imagine: now when drawing up a report, inspectors will curse both them and their families, and, most offensively, their children. That's harsh, where's the health to come from here. Guys, quit the traffic police, the job will become tough. Good luck to you.
How much will you have to pay for a trip without a first aid kit? In general, for traffic police officers, the very fact of leaving the garage is already a serious violation.
The fines look absurd because they bear no relation to people's real incomes. Order on the roads depends on the inevitability of punishment, not its severity. The traffic police didn't work on the roads before, and they still don't work even after November 17 — the mess continues, and the new fine nightmare will hit not malicious violators but ordinary drivers. I've already encountered this and can show photo evidence. This whole endeavor is outrageous. As is the government, so is the result.

Now either I buy all of this, or I prepare to part with my money: if not through court, then the traffic cops will definitely fleece me. That's the kind of country we have, such are the rules.
Why do those who come to power so quickly lose their human appearance and begin to oppress their own people? And then what to do with these who have lost their face? Create a reservation for them in Chernobyl?
If you have money for a personal car, then you'll find money to pay fines. Everyone is always complaining about lack of money. Fines have long been increased everywhere, so there's not much to be indignant about here. Judging by the comments, one gets the impression that everyone is violating and at the same time thinks that it should be so — without any consequences. Drive carefully, follow the rules — and you'll be happy.
