The meaning of the letters on the state numbers. Deciphering car numbers

Labeled by the authorities - this is how license plates belonging to law enforcement agencies and government agencies are called in the capital. They have more than fifty thousand cars. However, less than a third of them actually belong to the rightful owners. Most sold to corrupt officials, businessmen and members of criminal communities.

"I'm going as I please"

This is how the numbers of the E *** KX77 and 99 series, belonging to the FSO of Russia, are deciphered. Traffic police officers always forgive them everything. Due to their status and lack of corruption in the department, it is very difficult to buy them, theoretically impossible. There are cases when numbers were given for services. According to our data, the cost of a room of the coolest series can be about $70,000.

Things are a little easier with the X *** KX77 and 99 series. They belong to the FSB. Buying them is difficult and expensive, but possible (about 40,000 green). The letter of receipt is signed by the top management of these services.

Series C *** SS77 ("three seeds") belongs to the Center for Special Communications, the Courier Service and the Ministry of Communications. In Moscow and the region, such cars do not slow down. Issue price from 4000 USD

Series C *** SS99 belongs to the tax police, customs, GUIN and GOKHRAN. It costs less - about three thousand "green".

The K *** KK99 series was originally given to Feldsvyaz, FAPSI. Yeltsin personally helped the famous musician Yuri Bashmet for outstanding services to get the number K765KK99 on his Bentley. Cost 2500 USD
Beautiful, but without special privileges

Pleasing to the eye, the order of numbers on the license plate of the car is the lowest step in the hierarchy of the “labeled”. Their cost varies from 50 rubles to 600 USD. Getting these numbers is easy. To do this, when registering a car, you need to approach any employee of the MREO and tearfully ask for your favorite combination of numbers. After a little thought, the traffic cop will appoint you the day, time and amount of money with which you need to come.

Numbers with three identical digits (for example, 555, 666) or starting and ending with two zeros (007, 100) are issued at prices ranging from $200 to $600. As for the privileges, they are minimal: in Moscow they may not be stopped once again at the post. In the regions, traffic police officers, on the contrary, will once again stop you to look at the “thieves”.

Very nice numbers will cost you between $700 and $1,500. Numbers in *999**99 or *777**77 format are difficult to obtain. They work mainly for the prestige of the owner in the eyes of his environment. In the capital and the region, they rarely slow down.

Beautiful numbers also include: XXX, HNN, UUU, EEE. They belong to private owners and do not apply to traffic police officers.
"Olga" fell in price

Until 1993, there was no fashion for a special series of numbers. "Cool" were the MOL, MOS, MKM and ISS series, hanging on cars of law enforcement agencies. These numbers were not for sale. They were given out of great friendship or for services rendered.

Everything changed with the advent of new series numbers with three numbers and three letters. For example, on the first car of the former head of the traffic police of Russia, Lieutenant General Vladimir Fedorov, the number o100oo77 flaunted, although this series was originally intended for the FSB.

The market reacted immediately to the appearance of numbers with "three olgas". They immediately reached their price maximum. For three years, they were in demand, and they were not sold for less than six thousand greenbacks. Some cars were not slowed down by anyone, never and nowhere.

A brisk trade in FSB numbers led to the fact that the Chekists themselves had only 60 such numbers left. In the 98th year, they were immediately removed from the department, and at the same time the persecution began on the happy owners of the "three ole". Particularly "fierce" was the Special Purpose Battalion (BON), reporting directly to the head of the traffic police Fedorov. Such cars were delayed for several hours until the identity of the owner and passengers was fully clarified. Now the cost of such rooms "fell" to 4000-4500 thousand dollars.

O *** OO 97, which appeared last year, is even cheaper - about three thousand dollars. Their owners are mostly artists. For example, on the “Hummer” jeep of the singer Alexander Malinin, the numbers 003 flaunt along with the “olgs”. On the “Bentley” of the parodist Maxim Galkin, 070 hangs.

Unlike the "three ol" series: A *** OO77, B *** OO77, M *** OO77 and C *** OO77 enjoy authority, as they belong to the garage of the Presidential Administration.

Numbers A *** AA 77 are mostly owned by private owners. They are very popular with wealthy citizens. In addition to the representative function, they do not carry anything else. Well, maybe outside the Moscow Ring Road they are still afraid to stop such cars. But the metropolitan traffic police slow down, check, fine. The owners, who laid out a round sum, are then surprised for a long time. As soon as this series appeared, misinformation was launched around the city: like these are the numbers of the presidential administration, which means they are inviolable. Businessmen rushed to buy them.

Numbers A***AA99 cost about four thousand dollars. Some of the rooms are in commercial use, but the FSB also has them. Quoted above 77. The authority was raised by the former head of the Moscow traffic police, Nikolai Arkhipkin, who used such a series. But series 97 is at the mercy of very prominent figures. In particular, it hangs on the number 220 of Pugacheva's Mercedes (number 001), on the BMW X5 of the ex-soloist of the Lyceum Izolda Ishkhanishvili (number 011), on the Lexus RX300 of the head of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate Viktor Kiryanov (010).
"The Russian police" are not hindered over trifles

The MP (Russian Police) series costs between $5,000 and $10,000. But the money invested in itself works out in full. The policemen themselves had only a few numbers left. They belong to the top of the Ministry. Their owner is also the former head of the traffic police Fedorov. On the side, many large businessmen acquired them. For example, the head of Rosspirtprom, Sergei Zivenko, and Sergei Mikhailov (Mikhas). The latter is assigned the number A005MP77. Actor Karachentsev took the P777MP77. Cars are stopped only for very serious violations.

In contrast to the MR, the numbers of the MO77 series, which once belonged to the metropolitan police and the city administration, are now at the mercy of individuals. They impress only young traffic police officers. The cost is 1000 dollars.

Series A *** MM77, M *** MM77 a couple of years ago belonged to the Khozu of the Central Internal Affairs Directorate of Moscow. They are selling very well at the moment. The cost of those is about 7000 USD.
"Blue"

The latest fashion is expensive foreign cars (Mercedes W220, ML, Gelendwagen, Audi A8, Toyota LC100) in combat police coloring with beacons-beams and blue police numbers. The cost of such a service is from twenty to forty thousand dollars a year. As the site www.migalki.com writes, it is provided by private security of the capital. Today, there are more than three hundred such cars in the city. What is most interesting, everything is legal.

The entrepreneur writes a statement to the head of private security with a request to protect his property. On paper, he gives the guards his foreign car, in which he is going to transport his jewelry. And within an hour he has blue numbers. Moscow cars with "blue" do not stop throughout the Russian Federation.
Cooler than the tricolor on the number, only the tricolor

And finally, the very pinnacle of "labeled power" is the deputy federal numbers. The fact is that, in accordance with the law, a people's choice, as well as a member of the Federation Council, has the right to put a set of numbers with flags on his personal car. But often it doesn't. He usually sells them. The number can be sold in the capital at a price of 20 to 30 thousand dollars (annual payment). These cars don't stop.
Who needs special equipment

Each department has quotas for such documents. It issues them, say, to conduct operational activities. But, as practice shows, most of the special documents prohibiting touching the car and the people sitting in it go to the market. The presence of such paper forbids an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs not only to check the documents for the car, but also to be interested in the documents of the people in it.

Until recently, such a special ticket cost about 30 thousand dollars a year, and, for example, in 2003, about 25 thousand such orders were issued (by the way, it is no secret that during about 200,000 such documents were issued per year).

In 2004, a decision was made to reduce the number of "all-terrain vehicles" to 5,000 units, and now the FSB controls the issuance of prescriptions. Who really needs such special equipment is the members of criminal structures. According to operational data, almost all of them drive "labeled" numbers with prescriptions and coupons. Officially, neither the traffic police of Russia nor the traffic police of Moscow began to comment on all this information, calling it all speculation and the rich imagination of journalists. But in private conversations, traffic police officers confirm everything written above.

When such corruption is evident, it becomes clear why weapons, drugs and even explosives end up in Moscow. It is not transported in trucks, which are checked at every post. They are being transported, just in such cars, "labeled by the authorities."

In traffic, when city streets stop in traffic due to the clumsiness of one of the drivers, motorists while away the time looking at the registration numbers of neighboring vehicles. Many of us, noticing a successful combination of numbers, envy their owner a little, dreaming of seeing something similar on our speedy friend. By the way, many are seriously puzzled by this issue, going to the local MREO with the desire to acquire a cherished set of beautiful letters and numbers.

I myself have a very skeptical mind about this, but, having spotted a couple of “stylish” numbers, I decided to find out what they mean. It is noteworthy that in all the 20 years spent on the country's highways, he never thought about how numbers are formed and assigned. It can be seen that my curiosity was the turn to “wake up”, and I went in search of information, but already through the expanses of the network.

What did the car number say?

Among children today, you rarely hear disputes about where in the country the car came from. In my childhood, I often entered into such discussions with my yard comrades, and only a cheerful neighbor who worked at that time in the city taxi depot could judge us. He thoughtfully unfolded the atlas of the motorist, and, having found the desired region number, told us which of us was right, without fail praising him for his curiosity. So, as a child, I learned that the measured mark tells about the regional affiliation of vehicles.

But about the numbers and letters, which today are three on our registration numbers, I have not thought about it until now. The discovery for me as an adult was that these designations, along with the region, also determine the status of the owner, for example, his professional affiliation to special. services or law enforcement agencies.

How is a license plate set up?

The current autonumbers have the following form - YXXXYY region code. In place of Y - letters of the Russian alphabet, in place of X - numbers from 0 to 9. By the way, not all letters are used, but only those that have similar characters in the Latin alphabet - these are A, B, E, M, K, H , O, R, S, U, T, X.

The combination can be anything. And it seems that everyone is used to it, but often on the road you can find such a combination of symbols that the owners of such cars, even traffic police officers, try not to slow down, even if they commit a minor violation on the road.

If you list all the thieves' numbers in this article, then there will not be enough space, but I will try to tell you what I found out about the most used in Moscow and the capital region. Why exactly the capital region, but simply. The rest have their own numbers, quoted only by themselves. Also, let's leave aside just beautiful numbers that do not give any privileges to their owner, such as B123OP. It's just a beautiful number, purchased in the traffic police.

So I'm starting

The most famous are the numbers with the designation EKH97, officially owned by the FSO. According to legend, the series owes its origin to the dialogue between Krapivin (then head of this organization) and Yeltsin (the president of the Russian Federation at that time). According to Krapivin, his service needed new letters for numbers, as the old ones were not enough. After much deliberation, we decided that the combination of ECX would be just right.

This type of abracadabra means the following - Yeltsin + Krapivin = Good. Although the official version sounds somewhat different - the Unified Kremlin economy. And the people deciphered it in their own way - food as I want. Or even more rudely - whoever I want.

Now the series has been canceled, although according to rumors, the numbers are still in the FSO warehouses. In the regions, the series can sometimes be purchased for a very large amount of money, but get ready for the fact that they will constantly be stopped for inspection, as the gays have a list of numbers related to untouchables. The rest, you can safely slow down.

The most thieves is the AMP97 series. It is impossible to buy, it is still possible to rent, but for very, very big money. Cars with such numbers are in the possession of the government, the State Duma, the Federation Council and the leadership of the FSO, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the RF Investigative Committee, the RF Prosecutor's Office. The rooms are untouchable. They are braked only with special permission.

AMP77 - the series belongs to the Central Administration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but part of it is given to private owners, and it can be purchased. According to rumors, the price for such a room starts from one million rubles. And the closer the number is to the first hundred, the higher the cost.

XKX77 - the series previously belonged to the FSB. But most of it is given to private owners. Usually purchased by owners of executive cars and SUVs.

MMM77 - a series for official vehicles of the Moscow Ministry of Internal Affairs. But a large part is given to private traders.

AOO77, BOO77, MOO77, COO77 - most of these series are given to the administration of the President of the Russian Federation. But sometimes they are also on sale, of course for the appropriate amount. According to rumors, they look great on cars similar to control cars.

Another series belonging to various ministries and the metropolitan administration is AMO. Periodically found on sale for the appropriate price.

SKR197, 199. These numbers are assigned to the RF IC. Series 197 cannot be found on sale, if such a number is found in a private trader, then this is definitely a fake. And if he is slowed down, then he cannot avoid a good fine. But the 199 series, albeit rare, can be found on sale. As in all similar series, the closer to the first hundred, the more expensive.

SSS series. With the code 77, cars of special communications and similar organizations drive. Code 99 belongs to the tax authorities, GUIN and Gokhran. 97 different intelligence agencies. If necessary, you can buy, especially well, according to rumors, they look on dark-colored sedans. It is on these that representatives of the above services roll out. PMP77 - designed for justice. Popularity is not inferior to the above series, but the cost is much lower.

Well, let's not ignore one more series - EP177. it is designed specifically for United Russia. The people bears the name - United Russia is coming. It has no special value, but you can buy it for show-off.

All of the above numbers are mainly used in Moscow, although they are also valuable in the regions. But they also have their own thieves' numbers, it is impossible to list all of them here.

In this article, we will try to list some series of car numbers that are used by people and organizations close to the authorities in the Russian Federation. The numbers from the above list often give the car a certain advantage on the road, but the main thing is not to attribute “marking” to the wrong vehicles at all.

To begin with, it should be noted that FSB operational vehicles may have different state registration numbers. Therefore, here we will not deal with their useless enumeration, and we will also leave the military and "blue" numbers alone.

Let's start decoding the state numbers with the cars of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation - EKH99. This series appeared instead of EKX77, and EKX177, which was used during the summit held in St. Petersburg, was then put into storage.

The EKX97 series also belongs to the FSO and other departments that have the appropriate immunity.

How to recognize the car of the FSB or the UD of the President

One part of the signs from the XKX77 series is in the possession of the FSB, and the other was in demand among wealthy people and therefore was sold.

AMP97 numbers appeared to replace the "flag" signs (except for the AAAFL series), which were canceled. If numbers from the eighth hundred are applied, the decoding of the letters on the numbers indicates belonging to the FSB. Numbers from the first two dozen correspond to the government, and from the third ten - to the Presidential Administration. This includes, in particular, the former WAAFL.

License plates from the AAAFL series, which hung on the transport of the country's top officials, as well as accompanying cars, were subsequently replaced by a large number of conventional TRK177, OOT177 and HRK177. Moreover, the head of the Federal Security Service put a number from the EKX99 series on his car.

Cars that are assigned to the fleet of the Presidential Administration are equipped with numbers from the AOO77, MOO77, BOO77 and COO77 series. If the car has a lighthouse, then a courier (special postman) from the State Fiscal Service of the Russian Federation is traveling in it. However, these vehicles are deprived of any advantages on the road.

Numbers of the State Duma, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Penitentiary Service and other bodies

The KOO77 series used to belong to the Constitutional Court, but after the abolition of numbers with the tricolor, these signs were placed on cars that did not have beacons (AAKFL series).

The decoding of the series of numbers AKP177, EKR177, VKR177 and KKR177 is as follows - they appeared on a large number of cars that previously drove under "blue" state registration plates.

Almost three hundred issues of the EP177 series went to our State Duma, where they were used instead of the canceled "flag" ones.

After the introduction of blue signs, the Ministry of Internal Affairs began selling the numbers AMP77, KMP77, BMP77, OMP77, MMP77, TMP77 and UMP77. But at the same time, a certain number of cars on AMP77, MMP77 and KMP77 remained subordinate to this department.

PMP77 - numbers of the Ministry of Justice, the prosecutor's office, the Federal Penitentiary Service, etc.

The AMO77 series is almost completely assigned to the cars of the Moscow City Hall.

Well, they are completing the decoding of thieves' car numbers of the NAA99, CAA99, TAA99 and XAA99 series. Such signs can be either at the FSB or research institutes, or at a cool private trader.

Hello blog followers. In this story, I want to tell you what the AMP numbers mean, and who are their owners. License plates on a car are not just a metal plate, all owners of “cool” numbers are immune during the period of movement, at least this is how it happened in the vastness of our country. And now about all this in order further.

They appeared back in the distant 1939-1941s. The numbers marked with the letter A and numbers were intended for cars and trucks of the Red Army to travel through territories that were closed to the public, and government cars wore a combination of the letters MA. In the post-war years, this division was approved at the legislative level. A "numbered" reform was made, and they were distributed to individuals and special vehicles.

On the cars of high-level officials, state numbers of the MA, MSC, EO series appeared, which are provided with “privileges” in observing the rules of the road. In the 60s, the MOS and MOL series appeared, which could not be stopped. They also stood on cars from the "special purpose" garages that served the party elite. In the 90s, a subsequent registration reform took place, which resulted in the appearance of another series of cars with tricolors.

This fact means that these vehicles did not have the right to stop the traffic police. replaced with the Russian flag. The purpose of this reform was one - to facilitate the unhindered passage of cars of the country's leadership. But as it happens with us, special letters also appeared on the cars of businessmen and prominent pro-government figures.

Who is the owner of special number plates

The described series currently includes numbers AMP *** 97; this is a series that has come to replace numbers with a tricolor. Cars with these numbers are equipped with special signals, but do not have distinctive signs. This implies that when the special signal is on, these cars can deviate from almost all traffic rules, in fact, except for.

Who owns vehicles with AMP series registration plates? 999 of them (and this is the total number) are assigned to specific high-ranking officials, heads of departments and ministries. The AMP series is considered the most prestigious, regardless of what numbers are indicated on them. According to the Internet, the decoding of elite special signs is as follows. The letters AMR are interpreted as the Administration, the Administration of the Moscow Region, the car of the Minister of Russia.

Distribution and privileges of the "lucky ones"

Special signs are distributed as follows: the first half hundred numbers are related to ministers and high-ranking members of the government and the State Duma. The next holders of the elite number plates are advisers to the President, heads of departments and members of the Office of the President. At the end of the hundred owners of the privileged series are deputy ministers, state advisers and heads of law enforcement agencies.

Further, they are distributed among the structures of the Federal Drug Control Service, the Investigative Committee, followed by employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, military officials. Then the owners of special numbers can be members of ministries and heads of Legislative Assemblies. The last hundreds were given to Couriers, FSB, FSO and some members of the Federation Council.

In Moscow, such registration plates with the abbreviation AMP are highly valued and their happy owners, in fact, can be not only high-level officials - they are also purchased for big money by oligarchs. Do AMP numbers give additional privileges? From the point of view of legislation - no they should, but in fact they do. Many of us have heard that special series are associated with government agencies. Cars with special letters are untouchable, so they want to get them by any means in order to be protected from the control of traffic police officers.

With this, I dare to hope that we have slightly lifted the veil of the mystery of these mysterious letters AMP. Of course, they will never be available to most ordinary fellow citizens and even businessmen. However, not only in this happiness. I recommend not to violate the requirements that are prescribed by the rules of the road, so as not to rely on anyone's patronage. For example, now there are not frail fines for and even just for. Let's say goodbye, my dear readers. Bye!
