Imposing fines for disembarking passengers in the wrong place. The concept of parking

Stop public transport- this is a dangerous zone where a lot of people constantly accumulate, and also stop fixed-route taxis, buses, trolleybuses.

1. Parking and parking bus stop
2. Is stopping allowed?
3. When is there no fine?
4. Penalty for violation
5. What to say to the inspector?

Unfortunately, many drivers of light vehicles forget about the prohibition of stopping and parking in these places, creating additional interference and increasing the danger of the site. And if some do it consciously, then some drivers are simply not aware of the rules that apply to bus stops. Parking and parking at the bus stop Paragraph 12.4 of the SDA indicates that parking and parking at the bus stop is prohibited. The same rule applies to the adjacent area - 15 meters before and the same after the stop.

Stopping at a bus stop - who is allowed?

In Moscow and St. Petersburg, the fine for these offenses is higher - 3,000 rubles. But the fine is not the only punishment provided for the violator. If the driver parked at a stop and left the car, the car will be evacuated to the impound.
In this case, you will have to pay much more. However, you can be absent for only a few minutes - road police and tow trucks work quickly - it takes 10 minutes to detain a car. What to say to the inspector? If you violated the traffic rules and parked at a bus stop or at a distance of less than 15 meters before or after the sign, your actions depend on the reason for such a maneuver.

The approaching traffic police inspector will need to explain that the car is broken. Be prepared to prove it - the police don't take their word for it. If there is no good reason for stopping, you should expect a protocol and a fine.

Penalty for stopping at a bus stop

If, during a stop, passengers are disembarking or embarking, unloading or loading a car, then the duration may increase. Parking speaks of a longer stop of transport, for 5 minutes or more. At this time, no manipulations with transport are performed.
traffic rules regarding stopping and parking:

1. This is done on the right side of the road.
2. Curb is used.
3. A sidewalk is used (according to paragraph 12.2).
4. If there is a roadside, but it is occupied, you cannot leave the car on the road.

The stop is on the left if:

• There is only one lane for traffic in two directions in the settlement;
• Traffic is carried out on a one-way road.

Penalty for parking at a public transport stop In some cases, stopping a car at a public transport stop is possible.

Is it possible to stop for a couple of minutes at the bus stop?

• At a distance of up to 5 m from the pedestrian crossing and the edges of crossed places on the roadway.
• At a distance of up to 15 m from the stop of city Vehicle.
• 50 m to the railway crossing point.
• In one parallel row with carriageway roads.
• Stand in the area where signs 7.10 and 7.11 are valid (place for rest or parking).
• Along the edges of pedestrian sidewalks, if the icon is set 6.4.
• Along the edges of roadsides or carriageways, unless stopping is prohibited.
• In case of installation of plates 3.29 and 3.30 on the allowing days of the week.

Fines And how much does the driver cost wrong parking Taxi? To do this, carefully study the administrative regulations:

• For non-compliance with the requirements of Art. 12.16, the driver is punished with a fine from 1 to 3 thousand rubles.

403 - access denied

For parking transport with unreadable registration numbers waiting for punishment - evacuation to the impound until the identity of the driver is clarified. Parking services cost 5 thousand rubles.

• For stopping on a pedestrian sidewalk, a punishment of 1 thousand rubles is provided, according to Art. 12.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses. Even a collision with one wheel is already equated to a violation, for the cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg it is equal to 3 thousand km.
• Leaving the car in places intended for drivers with disabilities is punishable by an amount of up to 5 thousand rubles.
• For unforeseen exceptions, taxi stops in places where the prohibition sign is in force - the sanction will be up to 3 thousand rubles.
• For a stop in the 2nd row, a punishment of 2 thousand rubles is provided.

Fine for stopping at a bus stop in 2018

• Based on clause 12.4 of the Traffic Rules, it is forbidden for any vehicle to stop at a distance of less than 15 m from the sign in one direction or another. The same requirements apply to the applied yellow markings if there is no prohibition stop sign at the place of disembarkation of passengers by buses, trolleybuses or trams. But such an action as disembarking a client from a passenger taxi is allowed if his maneuver will not interfere with public transport.
• Paragraph 12.5 of the same rules stipulates that the stop sign applies to short-term parking of cars.
• For violation of the rules of stopping or parking in the area of ​​the sign prohibition of stopping, for parking vehicles closer than 15 m, an administrative penalty is imposed by a fine in the amount of 1 to 3 thousand rubles.

Stopping and parking at bus stops: rules, fines, nuances

In other words, you can stop only if you are guaranteed not to disturb anyone. However, there are two other exceptions to this. For example, such an action will not be a violation of the rules if the stop was forced and was the result of a breakdown, due to which the car cannot move on. In addition, the driver has the right to park at a public transport stop even if the state of health (of him or the passenger) or of the cargo being transported poses a danger to other road users.

However, even in such situations, you should remove the vehicle from the stop as soon as possible so as not to interfere with public transport.

Prokolosa24.ru

You can be fined or evacuated when stopping at:

• Pedestrian crossing;
• Parking for the disabled;
• Tram, railway tracks;
• Territories near residential buildings, if the car interferes with normal passage or passage;
• playgrounds for children;
• sidewalks;
• lawns;
• Public transport stops.

In what cases can you park a car at a public transport stop? Although such places are intended exclusively for public transport and buses, quite often you can see here and regular cars. First of all, we note that stopping at such places, following paragraph of traffic rules 12.4 is possible, but only in the event of a stop for disembarking or boarding passengers in a vehicle, while not interfering with taxis and minibuses. Otherwise, stopping is strictly prohibited.

What will be the penalty for stopping at a bus stop in 2018

After all, if a vehicle parked at a bus stop interferes with public transport, the driver will be fined twice as much - 2,000 rubles. However, in federal cities this moment plays no role. In Moscow or St. Petersburg, you will have to pay a fine of 3,000 rubles for parking at a public transport stop, regardless of whether the vehicle interferes with those who have the right to stop here or not.

Attention

Such punishment is prescribed in paragraph 6 of Article 12.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses. This should be known first of all to non-residents. After all, if a fine of 1 thousand rubles seems to many not very significant, then in the capital such a violation will cost 3 times more. Moreover, a car parked in violation of traffic rules can generally be taken to a penalty area by loading onto a tow truck.

It would seem that a taxi is the same public urban transport, and it should be subject to similar requirements that apply to buses, trolleybuses and trams. But the legislator still makes a distinction between them, and allocates a taxi to a special category. transport group. Let's figure out if it is possible to stand a taxi under the road sign of a bus stop.

concept

To deal with this issue, it is first necessary to recall the differences between a stop and a taxi rank.

As they say, parking is understood as the cessation of traffic for a period exceeding five-minute interval, without the purpose of picking up a customer or loading any items.

But the taxi may stop temporarily for disembarking passengers, unloading things, etc., and after about 5 minutes continue along the route.

Legislation

• Based on , it is forbidden to stop any vehicle at a distance of less than 15 m from the sign to one side or the other.
  

  The same requirements apply to the applied yellow markings if there is no prohibition stop sign at the place of disembarkation of passengers by buses, trolleybuses or trams. But such an action as disembarking a client from a passenger taxi is allowed if his maneuver will not interfere with public transport.

• of the same rules, it is stipulated that the effect of the stop sign applies to short-term parking of cars.
• For violation of the rules of stopping or parking in the zone of action of the prohibition of stopping sign, for parking vehicles closer than on 15 m provides for administrative punishment by imposing a fine in the amount of from 1 to 3 thousand rubles.
  

  In addition, the car can be evacuated to a paid penalty parking lot.

Rules for stopping and parking for taxis

Officially, the Taxi road sign according to the classifier is designated as Parking place passenger vehicles with the corresponding taxi on-board designations. But with its appearance, drivers have many different questions.

Numerous complaints from taxi drivers led to the change in the Rules of Traffic - they could not park in public places without violating markings or traffic signs.

For example to pick up customers from the catering point - all places were occupied by both the visitors themselves and the employees.

To install a sign, usually crowded places are chosen, near railway stations, airports, entertainment centers or metro, that is, where it is most convenient to hire a car to transport passengers.

Video: maneuver nuances

Stopping prohibited under the sign

In most cases, drivers are required to comply with the prohibition sign, but as with any rule, there are exceptions to this:

• The sign does not apply to public transport, which include semi-truck taxis.
  

  They, like other types of urban transport, are busy transporting passengers along a given route.

• However, before stopping, you should study the plates accompanying the sign, applied road markings or additional designations on the very sign. In the case of an icon with a crossed-out passenger car or trucks with a trailer, bus or motorcycle, then only the designated vehicles will be covered.
  

  And if there is no badge with a characteristic mark of a taxi, then you can stop without problems: pick up or drop off customers.

• But this sign can be supplemented plate 8.18, that is, a parking lot for people with physical disabilities, other drivers do not have the right to stop / park here.

A traffic police officer outside a stationary post

If, while driving, a traffic police officer urges you to stop at the place where a sign, marking or pointer is valid, then, despite the prohibition, you are obliged to comply with his requirements.

With included taximeter

In this case, the situation can be defined as waiting for the client, that is, the car can be left under the sign only in one case, if the taximeter is working.

In addition, this exception is valid only for officially registered cars as a passenger carrier; in relation to illegal immigrants, the requirements of the sign must be met.

Ultimate

If it is supposed to stop a taxi at the place of the final stop of public transport, and at the same time not interfere with maneuvering and turning around, then such actions are allowed.

In case of interference with the movement of other types of vehicles at the final stop, it will be regarded as traffic violation, the driver will be held administratively liable, in the form of penalties.

No waybill

If there is no hand waybill, this may mean that the taxi driver is not officially working on the day of the check, and he is not subject to exceptions to the rules that apply to a legally working driver of both a fixed-route taxi and a passenger taxi.

Where is taxi allowed

The main ones apply to passenger taxis; they allow stopping at the following places:

• At the place of installation of a special plate, that is, under the sign of a taxi.
• In addition, the driver can stop the vehicle at the request of the passenger if he becomes ill and urgently needs to leave the car.
• allows taxis to stop on roadsides on the right side, or on the right side of the road if there is no shoulder on the route.
• On distance up to 5 m from the crossing of pedestrians and the edges of crossed places on the carriageway of roads.
• On distance up to 15 m from the stopping place of urban vehicles.
• Behind 50 m to the railway crossing point.
• IN one parallel to the carriageway.
• Stay in range plates 7.10 and 7.11(place for rest or parking).
• Along the edges of pedestrian sidewalks, if installed icon 6.4.
• Along the edges of roadsides or carriageways, unless stopping is prohibited.
• In case of installation plates 3.29 and 3.30 on permitted days of the week.

fines

And how much does it cost the driver to park a taxi incorrectly?

To do this, carefully study the administrative regulations:

• For non-compliance, the driver is punished with a fine. from 1 to 3 thousand rubles.(the last figure is valid for Muscovites and Petersburgers).
• For parking vehicles with unreadable registration numbers, a punishment awaits - evacuation to a car impound until the identity of the driver is ascertained. Parking services cost 5 thousand rubles
• Stopping on a sidewalk is punishable by 1 thousand rubles, By . Even hitting with one wheel is already equated to a violation, for the cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg it is equal to 3 thousand rubles
• Leaving the car in places intended for drivers with disabilities is punishable by the amount up to 5 thousand rubles
• With unforeseen exceptions, taxi stops in places where a prohibition sign is in force - the sanction will be up to 3 thousand rubles
• For a stop at 2nd row provided punishment 2 thousand rubles
• If a taxi driver parks on the lawn, he will be punished with an amount from 3 to 5 thousand rubles., for legal entities, the punishment will be from 100 to 250 thousand rubles, the manager will be fined 30 thousand rubles

Therefore, all drivers, and not just taxi drivers, should follow the traffic rules in order to avoid penalties or evacuation of the car.

Like any Law, the Rules of any of its sections begin with general principles , and they are necessarily followed by dictated by life exceptions.

First general principle.

First of all, the Rules required drivers to park only on the right side of the road . Moreover, if there is a curb, stopping and parking are allowed. only on the edge (stopping on the roadway in the presence of a roadside is a violation of the Rules).

On any roadoutside locality this requirement is categorical and contains no exceptions.

And there are such questions in the Tickets:

Drivers of which vehicles violated the rules of stopping? 1. Only car B. 2. Cars B and C. 3. All cars. Task comment Drivers of cars B and C violate. If there is a curb, stopping is allowed only on the curb! Note. Here I must remind you that on high-class roads, the roadside is covered with the same asphalt as carriageway, and separate it from the roadway with a wide solid marking line. And this solid line is not only possible, but it must be crossed if the driver intends to park.

The Rules formulate this general principle as follows:

Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.1. Stopping and parking of vehicles are allowedon the right side of the road on the side of the road, and in its absence,on the roadat its edge.

It follows that if the shoulder is narrow, you can park partially on the roadway.

If there is no curb at all, then we park completely on the roadway, but only on the edge of the road. There are no questions about this in the Tickets, but the exam on practical driving the car always ends with the same thing - the inspector suggests you stop. And if, stopping, hit the curb of the sidewalk - this is a mistake. And if you stop more than 30 cm from the curb, this is also a mistake - you stopped on the edge of the road!

So, outside the settlements, stopping is always and everywhere allowed. only on the right side of the road!

As for settlements, here the Rules were forced to make two exceptions.

Exception number 1 (valid only in settlements).

In order to left-hand side became right, it is necessary to turn around.

But on the roads one way traffic reversal is impossible!

Such an act qualifies as driving into an oncoming lane. in violation of the Rules and is punishable by deprivation of rights for up to six months!

It is natural that the Rules allowed parking on such roads both on the right side and on the left. And now none of the drivers violates the Rules by stopping at different sides one-way roads.

Exception number 2 (valid only in settlements).

U-turns are not allowed on two-way roads. But if there are only two lanes (one in each direction), then on such a road it is sometimes difficult to turn around due to cramped conditions.

The rules felt that on such a road, for safety reasons, it was better to allow drivers to park on either side.

So now no one breaks the Rules on this road either.

At the same time, it should be remembered that such a democratic procedure is established by the Rules only in towns and only on two-lane roads, and only without tram tracks in the middle.

The Rules say this in the same paragraph 12.1:

Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.1, second paragraph. Stopping and parking are allowed on the left side of the road in built-up areas on roads with one lane for each direction without tram tracks in the middle and on one-way roads.

And they will definitely ask about this in the exam:

Second general principle.

Anywhere and everywhere parking is allowed only in one row and only parallel to the edge of the carriageway.

In the Rules it looks like this:

Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.2. Vehicle parking is allowed in one row parallel to the edge of the carriageway. two-wheeled vehicles without side trailer allowed to be placed in two rows.

This requirement of the Rules applies to all cases. Both in a built-up area (even in a “pocket”) and outside a built-up area (even if the roadside is wide), parking is allowed only in one row and only parallel to the edge of the carriageway.

And about this, there is one problem in the Tickets:

I especially want to draw your attention! - even in the "pocket" (local widening of the carriageway) it is necessary to park only in one row and only parallel to the edge of the carriageway.

But this, of course, is not all. Then again, there are exceptions.

Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.2, second paragraph. The method of parking a vehicle in a parking lot (parking lot) is determined by sign 6.4 and lines road markings, sign 6.4 with one of the plates 8.6.1 - 8.6.9 and road marking lines or without them.

In fact, for starters, they once again reminded drivers - even in "pockets", if there are no additional guidance, it is allowed to park the vehicle just parallel to the edge of the road!

However, if there is a plate, then the requirement of the plate must be met.

If there is markup, then the markup requirement must be met.

And even more so, it is necessary to follow the instructions given by both the plate and the markup at the same time.

It would seem that, full order induced, and on this you can calm down. But the authors of the Rules considered it necessary to include one more requirement in clause 12.2:

Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.2, third paragraph. The combination of sign 6.4 with one of the plates 8.6.4 - 8.6.9, as well as with road marking lines, allows the vehicle to be parked at an angle to the edge of the carriageway if the configuration (local widening) of the carriageway allows such an arrangement.

Plates 8.6.4 - 8.6.9 is this:

As you can see on these plates, in all cases it is proposed to park the car strictly perpendicular edge of the roadway. And the signs « at an angle to the edge of the road" not in the rules. How to be? How to arrange parking at an angle to the edge of the road." It remains only to call on the markup for help, which the Rules did.

Parking at an angle to the edge of the carriageway is permitted only if the following mandatory conditions are met:

A). There is a sign 6.4 "Parking";

b). There is one of the plates 8.6.4 - 8.6.9;

V). There is a "slanting" markup.

If the markup is straight...

... or there is no marking at all, then parking at an angle to the edge of the carriageway is a violation of the Rules.

In both latter cases, the car can be towed!

But that's not all. The rules went for another exception to the general principles. And the cardinal exception is allowed to park on the sidewalk!

Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.2, fourth paragraph. Parking on the edge of the sidewalk bordering the carriageway is allowed only cars, motorcycles, mopeds and bicycles in places marked with sign 6.4 with one of the plates 8.4.7, 8.6.2, 8.6.3, 8.6.6 - 8.6.9.

Here they are:

Plate 8.4.7 is called "Type of vehicle", i.e. parking is allowed only bicycles.

The remaining six tablets are called "Parking method"

How should this be understood? The rules made an exception allowed to stand wholly or partly on the pavement.

But at the same time, severe restrictions were introduced. Firstly, they showed (on the example of a passenger car) how to park vehicles. Only this way and nothing else!

And, secondly, not everyone was allowed to stand like that, but only cars, motorcycles, mopeds and bicycles.

And we already talked about this in topic 3.8 “Signs additional information(plates). The vast majority of the requirements of the Rules equally apply to all representatives of category "B", both for cars and for small and medium trucks (no more than 3.5 tons).

But not parking on the sidewalk!

No one freight car, with no permission maximum weight,

not a single wheel, under any signs

not allowed to stand on the sidewalk!

And this must be remembered both in life and on the exam:

So far, we have only talked about parking lot . What about stop ? Is it really necessary to pile up on the sidewalk to drop off a passenger?

No, nothing like that! Rules about stop in the area of ​​action of the signs "Method of parking the vehicle" they did not say anything at all. And what is not forbidden is allowed! That is, in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bany of these plates stop possible on the edge of the carriageway (observing the general principle), and stop anyone can.

This is also asked at the exam, however, only once:

That, in fact, is all about general principles and exceptions to them. Although guilty, there is one more general principle:

Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.3. Parking with a view long rest, overnight stays and the like outside the settlement is allowed only on designated areas or outside the road.

The rules did not give any guidance on what kind of rest to consider as LONG. But on by and large this is not required. Common sense tells any driver - you can have a bite to eat on the side of the road, sitting in the car. But if you are going to seriously “cover the clearing” and lie on the grass, then the car, of course, must be removed from the road. And if you are going to sleep (no matter how much), then it is in your interests to stop at a specially provided area for this.

Now about where stopping is prohibited.

First of all, stopping may be prohibited by signs or markings.

I remind you that such a solid yellow line drawn along the edge of the carriageway (or right along the curb) prohibits vehicles from stopping along its entire length.

Here, stopping is prohibited from the sign to the nearest intersection.

I hope you have not forgotten yet - the sign is valid only on the side of the road on which it is installed.

In addition, the Rules contain a whole list of places where stopping is prohibited by the Rules.

Simply prohibited (without any signs or markings).

1. Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.4. Stop prohibitedon tram tracks, as well as in their immediate vicinity. if it interferes with the movement of trams.

In this situation, the driver stopped not on the tram tracks, but so close to them that he definitely interferes with the movement of trams.

And, therefore, stopping at this place is prohibited!

In this situation, the driver has every reason to believe that he does not interfere with the movement of trams.

And, therefore, it is allowed to stop like that.

2. Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.4. Stop prohibitedat railway crossings and in tunnels.

I do not think that any of you will have a desire to park in a tunnel, or, moreover, on railway crossing. So let's leave this provision of the Rules without comment.

3. Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.4. Stop prohibitedon overpasses, bridges, overpasses (if there are less than three lanes for traffic in this direction) and below them.

You already know that on all bridges, flyovers, overpasses and under them, U-turn, movement in reverse and overtaking. As for the stop, here the Rules made a clarification:

- if the bridge, overpass, overpass are narrow (one or two lanes in this direction), stopping is prohibited;

- if the bridge, overpass, overpass are wide (three or more lanes in this direction), stopping is allowed.

And you need to know this - it will come in handy in life, and in the exam you will need:

4. Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.4. Stop prohibitedat pedestrian crossings and closer than 5 meters in front of them.

A car, even a passenger car, stopping in this way closes the view pedestrian crossing. And this, as you know, is not safe.

But this is a completely different matter - now drivers have the opportunity to timely see a pedestrian on the roadway.

Note! - the car standing right behind the transition does not interfere in any way with controlling the situation. Therefore, the Rules contain the following requirement:

Stopping is prohibited at the pedestrian crossing itself and closer than 5 meters to it!

Directly after pedestrian crossing stop is not prohibited!

Now let's remember that on a two-lane road you can park on either side. And which one is standing now before, who after pedestrian crossing?

To the one who parked on the left side, it seems that he is standing after pedestrian crossing. But it does not seem so to the driver of an oncoming car - the view of the pedestrian crossing is closed! And the situation is brewing extremely dangerous.

From the point of view of the Rules, now both white cars are standing before pedestrian crossing (and there is no 5 meters!) and, therefore, both stand in violation.

Now both are standing after pedestrian crossing, and therefore do not violate the Rules.

And pay attention - how clearly the pedestrian crossing is visible to drivers in both directions!

It remains only to remind you that on one-way roads it is also allowed to park on either side.

It is clear that now everyone is moving only in this direction, and, therefore, it is impossible to park like this.

Well, if you stop before pedestrian crossing, then no closer than 5 meters.

And this is how it is possible. And you can immediately after pedestrian crossing.

There are a couple of problems in the traffic police collection on this topic. I hope that, armed with the knowledge gained, you will not make mistakes here. Although the tasks, frankly, are not simple:

5. Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.4. Stopping is prohibited in placesWherethe distance between the solid marking line and the stopped vehicle is less than 3 meters.

The rules rightly consider that if the distance L less than 3 meters, then the stopped vehicle will block the movement.

In this situation, to go around the obstacle, you have to drive into the oncoming lane in violation of the Rules, crossing the solid marking line!

If the center line is broken, then there is no need to worry about 3 meters. IN this case drivers will go around the obstacle without any problems.

So stay calm, you're not breaking anything.

And now you can calmly stop and stand. This marking also allows drivers to bypass you without violating.

And now there is a solid line to your left, and there is clearly no three meters to it. So stopping at this place is prohibited!

And no sign prohibiting stopping is required in this situation. Stop at this place prohibited by the Rules, namely clause 12.4.

And they ask about it in the exam.

True, they ask not about stopping, but about parking. Well, then, include elementary logic:

- if on the left solid the line and there are not three meters to it, stopping is prohibited, and, moreover, parking;

- if on the left intermittent line, then nothing is forbidden here.

Did the driver break truck mobile parking rules? 1. Violated. 2. Violated if the permitted maximum vehicle weight is more than 2.5 tons. 3. Didn't violate. Task comment It doesn't matter what the maximum weight limit is. No truck, with any permitted maximum mass, with any wheel, should stand on the sidewalk. But now even this is not the main thing. Stopping is prohibited for all vehicles on this section of the road. On the roadway, stopping is prohibited because there will be no 3 meters to a solid one, and even a bicycle can be parked on the sidewalk only if there is a permit sign.

Which driver violated the parking rules? 1. Both. 2. Only the driver of the car. 3. Motorcycle rider only. 4. Nobody violated. Task comment Only the driver of the car violated - parking on the edge of the sidewalk can be allowed by the appropriate signs, but they are not here. And, most importantly, there was no need to climb onto the sidewalk, I could calmly stop and stand on the edge of the roadway. The center line is not a solid line, but combined. This marking allows you to go around it without any violation.

6. Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.4. Stop prohibitedat the intersection of carriageways and closer than 5 meters from the edge of the crossed carriageway.

We are talking about these corners at the intersections. The rules quite naturally require that drivers, when parking, leave these five-meter zones free.

Draw your attention! - the Rules do not say that stopping is prohibited at the crossroads. The rules say that stopping is prohibited. and closer than 5 meters from the edge of the crossed carriageway.

And this is fundamentally important! And that's why:

Where should you park your car? right side roads? 1. Just before crossing the road. 2. Immediately after crossing the road. 3. No closer than 5 meters from the edge of the crossed carriageway. Task comment Departure from the yard according to the Rules is not considered an intersection. But nowhere in the Rules does it say that this is not an intersection of carriageways. And since this is an intersection of carriageways, then when parking, it is necessary to fulfill the requirement of paragraph 12.4 of the Rules, namely: Stopping is prohibited at the intersection of carriagewaysand closer than 5 m from the edge of the crossed carriageway.

Are you allowed to stay at the indicated place? 1. Allowed. 2. It is allowed if the car is not closer than 5 meters from the edge of the crossed carriageway. 3. Forbidden. Task comment And once again I draw your attention! – paragraph 12.4 does not say that stopping is prohibited at the crossroads . Said stop is forbidden at the crossroads and closer than 5 meters from the edge of the crossed carriageway. So, if you come across this problem on the exam, keep in mind - at the crossroads With roundabout you can park (the Rules do not prohibit), you just need to drive off the edge of the intersected carriageway by 5 m.

In what case is the driver allowed to park the car at the specified location? 1. Only if the distance to the solid marking line is at least 3 meters. 2. Only if the distance to the edge of the crossed carriageway is at least 5 meters. 3. Subject to both of the above conditions. Task comment The car is worth after pedestrian crossing, and if there are 5 meters from the edge of the crossed carriageway and there are 3 meters to the solid center line, then he has fulfilled all the requirements of the Rules.

That stopping is forbidden at the crossroads clear and without any rules.

It would never occur to anyone to park like this at a four-way intersection.

And if the intersection is three-way, then the question arises - is it possible to park opposite side passage at three-way intersections?

The rules answered this question as follows:

Rules. Section 12. Clause 12.4. Stopping is prohibited at the intersection of carriageways and closer than 5 meters from the edge of the crossed carriageway,with the exception of the side opposite the side passage of three-way intersections (crossroads) having a solid marking line or a dividing strip.

Let's try to figure out what the Rules wanted to tell us.

If there is a median, then it doesn't matter from a safety standpoint whether the cars are parked before the intersection, after the intersection, or at the intersection.

In this case, the Rules allowed stopping and even parking in front of a side driveway.

But on condition that there are 3 meters to the dividing line!

If there is no 3 meters, then stopping here is generally prohibited - both before the intersection, and after, and at the intersection itself.

In the same way, and in the presence of a solid marking line, the Rules, guided by the same considerations, allowed parking at three-way intersections opposite a side passage.

And in the same way, in this case, it is necessary to remember the “three meters”. If there is no 3 meters between the stopped vehicle and the solid line, then stopping here is prohibited.

In all other cases, stopping in front of a side passage is prohibited!

What are the other cases?

If at the intersection the dividing strip suffers a break, then this is a full-fledged crossing the road!

In this case, the entire area bounded in the figure by the yellow lines must be free from parked vehicles.

The same is true if the solid line breaks at the intersection.

The same is true if the markup is broken.

The same is true if the markup is combined (moreover, it does not matter on which side the dashed line is applied).

In all these cases, the natural requirement of the Rules comes into effect:

Stopping is prohibited at the intersection of carriageways and closer than 5 meters from the edge of the crossed carriageway!

And now they will definitely ask about this requirement of the Rules in the exam:

Are drivers of vehicles allowed to stop at the designated places? 1. Allowed. 2. Only allowed for motorcyclists. 3. Forbidden.

A public transport stop is a dangerous area where a lot of people constantly accumulate, as well as fixed-route taxis, buses, trolleybuses.

Unfortunately, many drivers of light vehicles forget about the prohibition of stopping and parking in these places, creating additional interference and increasing the danger of the site. And if some do it consciously, then some drivers are simply not aware of the rules that apply to bus stops.

Parking and parking at the bus stop

Paragraph 12.4 of the SDA indicates that parking and parking on the territory of the bus stop is prohibited. The same rule applies to the adjacent area - 15 meters before and the same after the stop. The distance is measured from sign 5.16 or road markings.

What is invested in the concept of "parking"? This is when the car is stationary for more than 5 minutes. In this case, the driver may or may not be in the car. Parking is defined as parking for more than 5 minutes, regardless of engine operation.

Is stopping allowed?

Stop means short-term parking (up to 5 minutes). But even it is prohibited on the territory of bus stops. There are only two exceptions provided for in clause 12.4 of the SDA:

1. Embarkation or disembarkation of passengers.

Stopping is allowed provided that the car does not interfere with public transport and waiting people.

These rules apply not only to cars, but also other buses that are not public transport. For example, corporate transport from a factory can drop off passengers at a stop, and this will not be considered a violation.

But there is one important condition - stopping is allowed provided that there is no sign 3.27 prohibiting any kind of stop, even for disembarking passengers.

When is there no fine?

There are several situations when stopping and even parking at a bus stop is not a violation, and the driver does not face a fine. This:

poor health of the driver (for example, a heart attack or a sharp darkening in the eyes);

maneuver to prevent an accident (for example, when the car was brought to a oncoming lane);

a car breakdown that requires an emergency stop.

In any of the above cases, the driver must stop, put up a sign emergency stop and fix problems. If the driver becomes ill, you need to give a signal to other road users or pedestrians.

In case of breakdowns, you can stop in the wrong places:

steering or brake system;

faulty windshield wipers in bad weather;

malfunctions lighting fixtures(especially in dark time days).

The listed breakdowns are a good reason to park and troubleshoot. If necessary, you can call a tow truck or a mobile team of car mechanics.

Penalty for violation

And now about the punishment for violating the rules of parking at bus stops. It is provided for by Article 12.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses:

Stopping or parking without interfering with public transport - 1000 rubles;

Parking that interferes with pedestrians or public transport - a fine of 2000 rubles.

In Moscow and St. Petersburg, the fine for these offenses is higher - 3,000 rubles.

But the fine is not the only punishment provided for the violator. If the driver parked at a stop and left the car, the car will be evacuated to the impound. In this case, you will have to pay much more. At the same time, you may be absent for only a few minutes - the traffic police and tow trucks work quickly - 10 minutes are enough to detain the car.

What to say to the inspector?

If you violated the traffic rules and parked at a bus stop or at a distance of less than 15 meters before or after the sign, your actions depend on the reason for such a maneuver. The approaching traffic police inspector will need to explain that the car is broken. Be prepared to prove it - the police don't take their word for it.

If there is no good reason for stopping, you should expect a protocol and a fine. The traffic police inspector will have to fix the violation, collect the testimony of witnesses. In this case, avoiding punishment is almost impossible. In order not to pay fines, you need to follow the traffic rules and do not ignore the signs.
