This article deals with the problem of using special technical equipment for automatic recording of traffic violations. The article draws attention to certain important issues concerning administrative liability of vehicle possessors (owners), when a traffic violation is recorded by special automatic equipment, in particular: special characteristics of a subject of administrative offense, exceptions to the «presumption of innocence» principle; peculiarities of administrative proceedings in such cases. When writing this article the authors used the method of comparative legal analysis. The article contains comparative analysis of administrative legal rules of the Russian Federation, and those of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Republic of Belarus. The main conclusion of the study performed is that lawmakers have not sufficiently examined the issue of imposing administrative liability on vehicle owners for the offenses, recorded by special technical equipment, operating in the automatic mode, which leads to some problematic aspects in legal regulation of relevant administrative relations.
