Drivers were explained when they can not show their military ID to the police.


In his recent video review dated June 11, Anton Boltyk examined the police's rights regarding vehicle checks. The expert noted frequent violations by law enforcement and provided advice to citizens on how to protect their rights.
The law 'On the National Police' provides a list of 11 grounds for stopping a vehicle, but checking military documents is not included in this list. The lawyer emphasized that referring to 'intelligence' is also not a sufficient reason for stopping a car.
'...this is not secret information, it is not considered secret information,' Boltyk noted.
Article 32 of the Law 'On the National Police' defines the right of the police to check documents but does not impose an obligation on citizens to present them. Citizens have the right to be informed about the grounds for the stop, and if the police officer does not provide information, one can call 102 to check for intelligence.
Boltyk urged citizens to study their rights and reminded that knowledge of the law can protect them from illegal actions by the police. He also emphasized the importance of video recording interactions with law enforcement as a means of protection.
During vehicle checks, the police must adhere to clear rules, and citizens should know their rights to protect themselves from possible violations. The expert advises citizens to be confident in their rights, to inquire about the grounds for the check, and to prepare means of video recording to protect their interests.
