Rules of the road truck speed. Speed limit on the roads of Russia - fines for speeding

16.04.2019

In Russia, there are several sections of roads where you can ride with the breeze without violating any rules. We are talking about federal highways, where the maximum permitted speed reaches 110 - 130 km / h.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the country started talking about increasing the maximum speed limit on some roads in Russia. Although, even earlier, the State Company Avtodor applied to the traffic police with a request to “allow” them to allow 130 km / h on some subordinate routes (then the matter did not end in anything - author). The Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev “resolved” the issue, who “On Amendments to the Rules traffic". Almost a year has passed since the decision was issued (the document was published on July 26, 2013 - author). During this time, they really allowed to “drive” 130 in some places. At the same time, on most of the roads in Russia, which belong to the category "highway", only 110 km / h is still allowed.

Good quality - high speed

In order to be allowed to drive at a speed of 110 km / h on the highway, the road must have a dividing line oncoming traffic and vice versa have no exits or intersections at the same level between opposite lanes. In addition, the quality of the highway coating must meet all the requirements of GOSTs. Speaking the language of road builders, the route should be of category IA (“Motorway”) or IB (“High-speed road”).

If we collect all sections of roads in Russia that meet these requirements, we get a route five times shorter than the Great Wall of China. Or a route that is as long as the Volga River. All in all, there are 4 thousand km of such roads in our country or 8% of the length of the entire road network of Rosavtodor(by the way, it is 50 thousand km). But there are two more sections of roads under the jurisdiction of the Avtodor State Company, which are also allowed to drive at speeds up to 110 km/h.

“Before increasing the speed limit on federal highways, Rosavtodor without fail checks the compliance of the geometric elements of the plan and the longitudinal profile with the requirements of GOST R 52399-2005, the evenness and coefficient of adhesion of the coating, as well as the arrangement of sites technical means organization of traffic”, - the head of Rosavtodor Roman Starovoit.

So now the maximum speed is 110 km/h is allowed on the following roads:

Max speed 110 km/h plan to allow:

130 km / h - so far the limit

There are three sites in Russia federal highway M-4 "Don", on which you can ride even faster and do not pay anything to the state treasury "for speeding." Through these small sections you can drive at a speed of 130 km/h:

In August 2013, the first motorway with intelligent system traffic control appeared in Siberia, or rather in Kemerovo region. Moreover, this road is not of federal, but only of regional significance, which is surprising. On new track"Kemerovo - Leninsk-Kuznetsky" too (i.e. without paying a fine later or paying a fare on the road). The construction of two sections of this highway with a length of 45 km cost 12 billion 700 million rubles.

A little math

For the sake of an example, now let's count a little. The total length of roads in Russia where you can drive at a speed of 110 km/h is 193 km. Let's assume it's one way. Imagine that we are moving in a good car and free track, which does not pass through settlements, we come to the conclusion that we would have passed this road in 1 hour 45 minutes (if rounded). Meanwhile, this is the distance from Veliky Novgorod to St. Petersburg or from Mamadysh to Agryz (Tatarstan).

And if we put together sections where you can drive at a speed of 130 km / h, and drive along this road at 130 km / h, then in less than an hour we will drive from the center of Moscow to Klin (about 96 km). At the same time, according to Leningrad highway and then along the M-10 highway in the current conditions we are in best case we will be able to overcome this distance in more than two hours, taking into account traffic jams.

“I can still drive this distance just as fast,” you say. But they don't just come up with it. By increasing speed in the wrong place, you risk yourself and others. So it's better to follow the rules and drive somewhere slowly than to drive very slowly and feet first.

Lidia Terekhova, DorInfo

The government of the Russian Federation intends to force all drivers to reduce the speed of their vehicle by 10 km/h. The reason for this was the statistics of more frequent accidents in settlements, mainly with the participation of pedestrians. In addition, the "emergency" indicators for Russia leave much to be desired.

The relevant bill is still under discussion. It is assumed that Russian drivers will again begin to issue fines for exceeding the speed limit by 10 km/h or more. On the other hand, the State Duma is considering the possibility of following the European example, where in cities and towns the speed limit does not exceed 50 km/h.

In any case, the latter indicate that change in the speed limit on the roads from 2018 happen, regardless of what drivers think about it.

New speed modes

The state wants to reduce the limit of the so-called unpunished speeding by drivers. Recall that such a limit was introduced not so long ago, and on this moment it is 20 km/h. The country's leadership is going to reduce it to 10 km/h.

In contrast to the government, representatives of the State Duma have a different opinion. There are fears that such a measure will lead to a jump in the number of fines for drivers and, as a result, smoothly lead to the flourishing of corruption.

According to the current Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, the minimum fine for speeding from 20 to 40 km/h is 500 rubles. The Ministry of Internal Affairs proposes to slightly expand the scope of this range. If the department is heeded, then a fine will be issued for exceeding the speed limit by 10-40 km/h.

A similar bill has already been considered by the anti-corruption expertise, it was even published on the state portal. But, for some reason, the project never reached the stage of being submitted to the State Duma.

In September 2013, they stopped fines for exceeding the speed limit by more than 10 km/h, which led to bad consequences.

“A significant part of vehicle drivers began to deliberately violate the rules of the road, realizing their impunity. As a result, the speed traffic flow, including on the territory of settlements, increased from 60 to 80 km / h, which in the event of a collision with a pedestrian guarantees his death. Even at a car speed of 45 km / h, 50% of pedestrians die, the rest are seriously injured, ”the explanatory note in favor of the adoption of a new bill on the introduction of a fine for exceeding the permissible speed limit by 10 km / h was reported.

At the moment, the main argument in favor of the adoption of appropriate amendments to the law is the deplorable state of statistics on the number of accidents on zebras. According to the data provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, after the adoption of a new permissible violation of 20 km / h, the number of collisions at pedestrian crossings has increased significantly.

Fighting corruption or preventing new accidents?

The first deputy chairman of the authorized committee of the State Duma on constitutional legislation and state building Vyacheslav Lysakov, who is, moreover, the leader of the party " Automotive Russia”, submitted for consideration its own solution to the acute problem with the speed limit.

Lysakov proposes to reduce top speed traffic in cities and towns from today's 60 km/h to 50 km/h. But, nevertheless, leave the permissible speed limit at 20 km / h. According to him, we will get the same picture that the government is trying to achieve - cars will travel no higher than 70 km/h within cities.

Such refinements are necessary, the parliamentarian is sure, since the possible abolition of the existing limit can cause a resonance in society - drivers may see in such an innovation an attempt to rip off as much money from them as possible.

“We increased this limit from 10 to 20 km/h for certain reasons: due to the preparation of a points system, the fight against corruption on the roads. And I never proposed to cancel this innovation and now I oppose it, because all the conditions have been preserved. If now we start reshaping the Code of Administrative Offenses again, then the number of violators will increase sharply, the level of corruption will increase, ”Lysakov said.

At the same time, it is clear to everyone that reducing the speed in cities will not provide a 100% solution to the problem. First of all, data on the increased number of collisions with pedestrians are associated with an increase in the number of vehicles.

Also, the statistics are affected by the unsatisfactory training of the drivers themselves, and the quality of equipment pedestrian crossings is in an unsuitable condition. The dispassionate figures of statistics are also influenced by the carelessness of the pedestrians themselves, who can afford to cross the road in headphones or look at mobile phones at that moment.

Pedestrians completely forgot about the rules of the road, according to which, before crossing the road, you need to wait for the green light of the traffic light and look around. The vigilance of pedestrians is lulled into a false sense of security. But another fact cannot be discarded: even at a speed not exceeding 50 km / h, the driver may simply not have time to react, and the car may slow down.

What option of changing the speed limit on the roads will be accepted at the moment is not clear. But the fact that innovations are coming that many will not like is an indisputable fact.

Well hello, hello! And I have a new portion of fresh and relevant information for fans fast driving.

So today let's talk about top speed motorists on the road.

Ready to hear about existing restrictions? Sit back, maybe you didn't know anything about it!

The maximum speed in the city is 60 km/h. Not 80 km / h, as many people think, namely 60! It doesn't matter if your car is a car or a truck.

For exceeding the speed by the driver, a fine is imposed on the violator, the amount of which depends precisely on the speed that was exceeded.

What is taken into account when setting the speed limit?

The area is taken into account - a residential or industrial area, the “business” of the road, the presence of schools, kindergartens, hospitals nearby, weather when passing through a certain section of the road.

For "yard" zones, where residential areas are located nearby, the maximum speed is only 20 km / h, since the probability of an accident on the road in this zone is as high as possible.

Amount of the fine

1 - 20 km/h according to the rules of the road is considered acceptable, so there is no penalty. Limited to issuing a warning.
When the size of the exceeded speed is 21-40 km / h, the fine reaches 500 rubles.
41-60 km / h - up to 1500 rubles, and in case of violation again - the fine will rise to 2500 rubles.
61-80 km / h - 2500 rubles + deprivation of the driver's license for a period of 4 - 6 months. If such a violation was committed again, then the period of deprivation of rights will last up to one year.
81 km/h and above - 5000 rubles fine + deprivation of the driver of his right to drive a vehicle for six months, and if the violation repeats - for one year.

According to the traffic rules, the driver must drive the car at a speed not exceeding the limit established by law.

This takes into account a number of factors, namely: traffic intensity, features, technical condition the vehicle and its serviceability, features of the cargo being transported, weather, road conditions, visibility.

Speed should help control traffic in any situation.

Increased speed may be allowed on some sections of roads (if there is a sign), lanes, when conditions on the road can ensure the safety of traffic at a higher speed.

The permitted speed in such cases may be greater than the value set for specific modes of transport on motorways.

If we talk about movement outside the territory of settlements, then it should be noted that the movement is recognized as permissible:

for passenger cars, trucks with the permitted limit permissible weight no more than 3.5 tons on highways - 110 km / h, and on other roads - 90 km / h;
for long-distance, small-seat buses, motorcycles - no more than 90 km / h;
buses, cars when towing a trailer, as well as trucks, the maximum permitted weight of which is more than 3.5 tons on highways - no higher than 90 km / h, on other roads - 70 km / h;
trucks engaged in transportation in the body of people - no more than 60 km / h;
cars that transport children - 60 km / h;

Drivers of vehicles transporting bulky, heavy and dangerous goods are allowed to move at a speed established in the presence of an agreement on the conditions of transportation, but no more.

The driver cannot

1) exceed the maximum speed limits for their vehicle;

2) to exceed the speed from the sign that establishes the speed limit;

3) build obstacles to other vehicles, moving at low speed, without having to do so;

4) start braking very abruptly when it is not aimed at preventing the onset of a traffic accident.

You can drive along the highway separating a small village or move around the city, but the speed of your car must be limited. The smallest deviation from traffic rules can lead to emergency and negative consequences.

The norms of the Rules of the Road contain the limit of the permitted speed when moving through a particular settlement. This limit is the same for everyone without exception, it cannot be changed with traffic intensity, the presence of pedestrians. The general rule for all is 60 km/h.

If the driver has left the city, he must carefully follow the signs when entering another settlement. Moving through residential areas, the speed of more than 20 km/h is not allowed. This is the only way to ensure the safety of people, the safety of homes and playgrounds.

Another important point- here, drivers must let each of the pedestrians pass, even when people do not move along specially equipped crossings, but close to the roadway.

Traffic rules establish the possibility at the regional level to set higher readings in terms of speed for certain types transport. When you leave the road at the allowed speed, then the rules that are written for the settlement immediately come into effect.

Glad to be of service to you again! Do not switch and you will be aware of the most pressing issues for motorists! Only the most necessary information!

Thanks to the ubiquitous road signs, drivers can easily navigate while in unfamiliar cities and even countries, and at the same time clearly understand the maximum speed at which it is permissible to move within the boundaries of a particular settlement and beyond. Experienced drivers know that the speed on one stretch of road for various kinds transport is very different. For example, maximum allowable speed driving within the city and beyond freight transport significantly lower than for passenger cars.

Maximum speed in city limits

So, on the territory of the Russian Federation for various types of transport and on various road sections, the following speed limits:

Passing through any settlement, whether it be a village or a city, it is allowed to make movement, the maximum speed of which is 60 km / h. for all types of transport;
In residential yards for all vehicles, the maximum permitted speed is 20 km/h.

Permissible speed outside the city limits

Out of city limits on highways and highways The speed limit for vehicles of different categories is as follows:

Punishment for speeding

To encourage compliance speed limits, a system of fines for speeding is also indicated for drivers. When the speed does not exceed the maximum more than 20 km/h, then such a minimum excess is not punished. In case of more serious excesses, regardless of whether it is a highway or a settlement, the following fines come into force:

For exceeding the maximum allowable speed indicator at 40 km / h is punishable by a fine of 500 rubles;
For exceeding more than 40 km / h, but not exceeding 60 km / h, the amount of the fine is already - 1500 rubles. In case of repeated fixation of the violation, the amount of the fine doubles and amounts, respectively, already - 3000 rubles;
Exceeding more than 60 km / h, but not exceeding the mark, the amount of the fine will be already - 2500 rubles. driving license and deprivation of the right to be a driver for a period of 6 months. In case of repeated fixation of the violation, the period of deprivation driving license increases up to 1 year;
For exceeding more than 80 km / h, the amount of the fine is 5 thousand rubles, and it is also mandatory for a traffic inspector to confiscate rights for a period of 6 months. In case of violation for the second time, the driver's license is also withdrawn, but for a period of 1 year.

The best way to avoid punishment is to comply with all speed limits, but if, nevertheless, traffic police officers show you speeding, in such a situation it would be useful know your rights. The traffic police officer refers to the testimony as evidence of a violation of the rules measuring instrument.

Each driver, in turn, has the legal right to personally familiarize himself with the reading of the device. Also, if necessary, the driver has the right to demand the presentation of a document that would testify to the serviceability of the measuring device used by the employee. You should also make sure that the document number matches the number of the meter you are using.

In turn, the traffic police officer has the right to refuse the driver to present documents proving the serviceability road radar. The main thing is to make sure that the refusal of the traffic police officer is displayed in the violation protocol, it plays important role in case of contesting the imposed fine in court. The main thing is to be as polite as possible in a dispute with traffic police officers and try to understand their work there more if speeding really took place.

Conclusion

Before you allow yourself to exceed the speed limit, you should remember that there is a risk not only to get a fine and lose your rights, but also to put your own and other people's lives in mortal danger. Even if you experienced driver with lightning-fast reaction, you are still unable to predict all road surprises, besides poor quality most roads only increases the risk. It is worth thinking carefully several times before pushing the gas pedal to the floor, because if you do not think about yourself, then think about loved ones who love and wait for you.

Good Faith Compliance established rules will allow you to protect yourself from unplanned financial expenses, save your nerves and precious time, and also protect you and the drivers around you from negative consequences.

What is the main difference expressway from the motorway In 2009, by a decree of the Government of the Russian Federation, rules were established for the classification of motorways and their categories were designated. According to the traffic conditions and the possibilities of access to them, the roads were divided into the following classes:

motorway - road category 1A;
high-speed highway(category 1B);
ordinary road (other categories are established).

The main difference between a motorway and an expressway is that the motorway does not have junctions at the same level, and the expressway allows single-level junctions for access to it no more often than after 5 kilometers. The roads of categories 1A and 1B also differ in design speed. For the motorway it is 150 km/h and for the expressway it is 120 km/h.

Rules of the road outside the city. part 2. speed outside the city.

The general rule for all is 60 km/h. If the driver has left the city, he must carefully follow the signs when entering another settlement. Moving through residential areas, the speed of more than 20 km/h is not allowed.

This is the only way to ensure the safety of people, the safety of homes and playgrounds. Another important point is that here drivers must let each of the pedestrians pass, even when people do not move along specially equipped crossings, but close to the roadway.

Traffic rules 10. speed

For "yard" zones, where residential areas are located nearby, the maximum speed is only 20 km / h, since the probability of an accident on the road in this zone is as high as possible. Amount of the fine

1 - 20 km / h according to the traffic rules is considered acceptable, so there is no penalty.

Limited to issuing a warning.
When the size of the exceeded speed is 21-40 km / h, the fine reaches 500 rubles.
41-60 km / h - up to 1500 rubles, and in case of violation again - the fine will rise to 2500 rubles.
61-80 km / h - 2500 rubles + deprivation of the driver's license for a period of 4 - 6 months.

What is the maximum speed you can drive in the city?

This is regulated by the requirements of GOST R 52289-2004: 5.4.22 Sign 3.24 "Maximum speed limit" is used to prohibit the movement of all vehicles at a speed higher than indicated on the sign if it is necessary to introduce a different maximum speed on a road section than on the previous section. When limiting the speed of movement on dangerous sections of the road ( sharp turns, unsecured visibility of an oncoming vehicle, narrowing of the road, etc.) the zone of action of the sign must correspond to the length dangerous area.

If in this section a maximum speed is set that differs from the maximum permitted speed in the previous section by 20 km / h or more, apply step constraint speed in increments of not more than 20 km/h by sequential installation of signs 3.24 at a distance of 100-150 m from each other.

10. movement speed

Good afternoon, dear reader. The second article in the series "Rules of the road outside the city" will address a variety of issues related to the speed limit on a suburban highway. By the way, I recommend that you read the article “Speed mode in the city.
Rules, innovations, fines”, which deals with issues related to limiting the maximum speed in a populated area. Let me remind you that the maximum allowed speed on the roads Russian Federation currently is 130 km/h.

Moreover, at such a speed you can only move on highways, which are extremely rare in themselves, on which a sign of 130 km / h is additionally installed, which happens even less often. On normal country roads, the maximum speed limit is 90 km/h.

How fast can you drive on the motorway?

Important

Fines for speeding on the highway A detailed table of fines for speeding is given in the article “Speeding in the city. Rules, innovations, fines. Here I will only quote the relevant article of the code on administrative offenses: Article 12.9.

Attention

Exceeding the established speed 2. Exceeding the established speed of a vehicle by more than 20 but not more than 40 kilometers per hour - shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of five hundred roubles. 3. Exceeding the established speed of a vehicle by more than 40 but not more than 60 kilometers per hour - shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of one thousand to one thousand five hundred roubles.

Permissible speeding in Russia

At the same time, many already know that the driver will not be fined if the excess is not too large. So, an increase in speed from the maximum allowable by another 20 km / h does not threaten anything. That is, you can safely drive on the roads if the speedometer readings slightly exceed 100. On sections of highways where traffic is allowed at a speed of 130 km / h, the car can actually be accelerated to almost 150 without the risk of getting a fine.

But deliberately exceeding the speed is not worth it, because the speedometer, like the radar, can determine indicators with a small error. Therefore, in such a situation, the risk of a fine increases. Rules for overtaking Many drivers mistakenly believe that there is no speed limit while driving on the highway.

However, it is not. Paragraph 10 of the Rules states that vehicle must move in accordance with traffic rules, taking into account the intensity of traffic.

What speed is allowed in the city

Besides, freight car hard to turn, driving requires a lot of experience and skill from the driver. For "light" trucks weighing up to 3500 kilograms, the following restrictions apply:

maximum speed in the village up to 60 km / h;
maximum speed outside the city and on the motorway up to 110 km/h.

But freight transportation are often carried out by more massive vehicles weighing several times the limit of 3,500 kilograms.
These trucks are subject to the following restrictions:

For a settlement - 60 kilometers / hour;
The maximum speed outside the city / village is 70 kilometers / hour;
The speed limit on the motorway is 90 km/h.

If the vehicle is carrying dangerous goods, then special rules apply. There are different rules depending on the type of cargo.

Maximum allowed speed outside the city

Let's consider this moment in more detail. 1. The end of the maximum speed limit zone The simplest case is that the end of the limit is indicated by sign 3.25: 3.25 “End of the maximum speed limit zone” installed in the required place. 2. End of the zone of all restrictions The second situation is sign 3.31: 3.31 “End of the zone of all restrictions” installed on the road. Designation of the end of the coverage area at the same time several characters from the following: 3.16, 3.20, 3.22, 3.24, 3.26 - 3.30. 3. Area of action The third option. Sign 3.24 may be accompanied by a plate 8.2.1 "Area of coverage": 8.2.1 "Area of coverage". Indicates the length of the dangerous section of the road, marked with warning signs, or the area of operation of prohibition signs, as well as signs 5.16, 6.2 and 6.4. In this case, the speed limit is valid exactly on that section of the road, the length of which is indicated on the plate.

Maximum allowed speed outside the city

modern car with powerful motor, streamlined body, improved suspension, quality rubber without problems develops a speed of 200 km per hour or more. In practice, it has been established that the power qualities inherent in the car are necessary in cases of short-term acceleration when overtaking or when overcoming climbs.

Really comfortable and safe management the car is carried out at a speed of 100-150 kilometers per hour, and this is provided that the road along which the car is moving meets the standards and state standards. In Russia, there are few highways where you can reach the maximum speed allowed by traffic rules. In the rules of the road of the Russian Federation, with additions and changes as amended on July 25, 2017, the permitted speed on the motorway is set within 110 km per hour and up to 130 km per hour in certain sections.

The maximum allowed speed outside the city in Kazakhstan

A fair question arises: "How to determine the end of a dangerous section?". Do not leave the car with a tape measure to measure the roadway.

You can do this using car odometer(a device for measuring the distance traveled by a car or mileage). Immediately after you see sign 3.24 with sign 8.2.1 on the road, I recommend that you take a look at the odometer and fix its current reading in memory.
