How to travel without insurance.

Good afternoon. Here is an article I found. I wonder if such a scheme is applicable in today's conditions, namely the application of a contract for free use in the absence of insurance.

If you took a passenger seat, entrusting the driving of the car to another driver not included in the insurance, then when checking documents, the inspector will draw up a protocol under Article 12.37, paragraph 1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses - a fine. Your task is to transfer the driver to the owners, then Article 12.37, paragraph 1 is not applicable. The algorithm below can be too complex for the inspector and should only be used as a last resort.
1. We hide the policy away in order to exclude the mention of Article 12.37, Clause 1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses and Clause 22 of the OSAGO Rules.
2. The owner of the car is the one who is recorded in the vehicle registration certificate. The owner is the one who manages the car. And this is not necessarily the owner, because the owner can write a power of attorney, and the car will have a new owner. The conclusion of an agreement, for example, gratuitous use, also entails the emergence of the right of ownership.
3. A power of attorney is a unilateral transaction, an agreement is a bilateral one.
4. In the understanding of the Civil Code, a power of attorney gives the right to perform legally significant actions (transactions) on behalf of the person represented, and nothing more. Control vehicle is an actual action, and therefore has nothing to do with the power of attorney. A power of attorney for the right to drive a vehicle is a sham deal that covers the main one. The main contract may be a contract of gratuitous use, lease, sale. Article 1079 of the Civil Code reflects precisely this position, the so-called. everyday understanding of power of attorney.
5. The new owner of the car, according to the law "On OSAGO", is given 5 days to apply for insurance (Article 4, Clause 2).
So, take a piece of paper and write a power of attorney or a free use agreement with the owner of the car on today's date, and as a new owner you can ride for 5 days without insurance. The owner of the car by power of attorney can issue a new power of attorney, but only at the notary. Without a notary, he can conclude an agreement for gratuitous use, if this is provided for by a power of attorney.
In principle, it is possible without writing documents, if the owner of the car is sitting in the passenger seat, because. the absence of a written form does not entail the invalidity of the transaction (Article 162 of the Civil Code). And, if you find yourself in such a situation, then just write in the protocol: “I do not agree, because I have an oral contract for free use from today's date. , gives the right to issue insurance within 5 days". (Example: Case No. 12-138/04 St. Petersburg 05/11/04 Moscow Federal Court)
The Supreme Court's opinion (Question 52, Q4 2005): “…a person who drives a car without a written power of attorney and has a driver's license of this category, but in the presence of its owner or other legal owner, uses the vehicle legally. In this case, the proper defendant in cases of compensation for damage caused by a source of increased danger (vehicle) is the person who was driving the car at the time of the traffic accident.
