The fact is that in three months, future drivers will receive the rights of a special category &#8211; those who studied at the &#8220;machine&#8221; will put in the appropriate column the number 78. It will mean a ban on driving a car with a manual transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;When the vehicle is stopped by the patrol police or in the event of an accident, it will be considered that you used the vehicle without a proper driving license. The mark is made depending on which car the person is taking the exam at the service center,&#8221; explains the first deputy head. service center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Yuriy Smolyaninov.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The innovation is related to the implementation of the European directive &#8211; there was a division between &#8220;mechanics&#8221; and &#8220;automatic&#8221; back in 2013. Drivers in Ukraine can exchange their rights to a European-style document today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new rules will not apply to those who have received rights for a long time &#8211; no marks will be put in their documents.

After all, drivers who switch to &#8220;mechanics&#8221; from a &#8220;machine gun&#8221; will receive fines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Ministry of Internal Affairs talked about a number of innovations for drivers in terms of issuing licenses and taking exams in service centers.
