Abstract: 2022 has become a defining period for fundamental changes in the legislation of our country. It became not only an impetus for global reform, but also fully determined the main stages of the forthcoming work to reshape the country's regulatory system as a whole. The special military operation gave a premature impetus to the final understanding of the most important and priority areas of our country's life. One of these areas, of course, is the transport sector. First of all, the life and health of people, the safety of property and safety for the environment depend on full transparency in this area. Our article is intended to identify the key problems of regulatory legal regulation of the state registration of vehicles (self-propelled vehicles) in the Russian Federation and offer their solution. The relevance of our topic is related to the strengthening of state control over the processes associated with the use of vehicles or self-propelled vehicles by citizens for personal, industrial, agricultural and other purposes.The main objective of our article is to make a proposal for a radical change in the regulatory legal approach to actions related to state registration by the authorized bodies of the Russian Federation of vehicles and self-propelled vehicles.The uniqueness of the work and its scientific novelty lies in the fact that the problems identified by us in the field of state registration of vehicles and self-propelled machines are proposed for the first time to be solved by amending the whole complex of regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation, as well as by changing the already established procedural principles of the work of registration authorities.
