Permitted speed on the highway for trucks. Stepped speed limit

Permitted speed on the highway for trucks. Stepped speed limit

Sign 120 may already occur due to changes in the rules (notes to clause 10.3)

The sign "130" is at least on the M4.

Thanks for the answer, I know this, I wanted to know something else ... It turns out that our legislation does not care about the fact that with a wind speed of 19 m / s, that is, 68 km / h, the speed on the electronic scoreboard is 110 km / h.

There are cars that press even harder against the road with an increase in speed, and for them a serious gust of wind is already when heavier cars will drop. You won’t get enough of the scoreboard for all types of cars, and there are no corresponding signs. For example, sports cars and SUVs belong to the same class. passenger cars, and the reaction to a gust of wind is radically different.

Hello. The speed limit on the Ring Road is 110 km/h. Road services neglected their cleaning work pavement and on electronic scoreboards indicated the speed of 70 km / h. At the same time, they said that they would be fined immediately after exceeding the speed limit of 110 km/h. However, according to the law, exceeding the permitted speed by 20 km / h or less is not punishable by a fine. How competent is the decision of the traffic police to punish for exceeding up to 20 km / h?

Yuri, by scoreboard do you mean signs with changeable images?

If so, please attach a diagram of the location of the scoreboard and road signs (limiting speed) along your route.

Unfortunately I don't have a diagram. These are information boards above the Ring Road, which indicate the speed and various notifications such as road repairs, slippery road.

Yuri, do the values ​​on the scoreboard contradict the usual road signs?

Of course, they contradict - according to the Ring Road, the allowed speed is 110 km / h.

Yuri, after each "110" sign you can drive at a speed of 110 km/h. You can be fined at 130 km/h.

After each "70" board you can drive at a speed of 70 km/h. You can be fined at 90 km/h.

The scoreboard is essentially the same signs. Each next sign (board) cancels the action of the previous one.

Good luck on the roads!

Thank you, but there are no 110 km/h signs on the Ring Road. I doubt, however, that the electronic signs over the Ring Road have legal force. I think that these are still informational values ​​\u200b\u200band recommend given speed but not obligated.

Thank you, but there are no 110 km/h signs on the Ring Road.

And why then do you think that it is possible to move at that speed there?

Yuri

Good luck on the roads!

Yuri, V this case maximum speed movement is set scoreboard. I don’t think these signs are fake, the traffic police would not mess with such people.

Those. the board is similar to sign 3.24 and sets the maximum speed. If you exceed it by 20 km / h or more, you can get a fine.

Good luck on the roads!

wowick, in this case the following logical chain is used.

1. In the text of the rules traffic images are not used. The text of the document is simply text with numbers and descriptions of the characters. The published texts of the rules contain signs to make it easier for drivers to understand the rules.

2. At the beginning of Appendix 1 there is the following sentence:

The numbering of road signs corresponds to GOST R 52290-2004.

Those. a description of the images of signs can be found in this GOST.

3. GOST itself contains the following paragraph:

5.2.1. Signs are made using reflective materials, with interior lighting, with external lighting. black and white picture elements gray colors signs should not have a retroreflective effect.

It is allowed to produce signs with light indication with designations of inscriptions and symbols in matrix form. In this case, it is allowed to replace black inscriptions and symbols with white or yellow, and the white background of the signs - to black in cases where this does not lead to their erroneous perception. Replacing the red color of the background, symbol and border of signs and sizes of their images is not allowed.

So the scoreboard signs are also road signs.

Good luck on the roads!

Based on all of the above, I propose the other extreme: - so that people on the roads do not violate the speed limit, make cars moving at a speed of 60 km / h and the problem of speeding will be solved. Other vehicles with more high speed in the country to ban forever. Thus, we will solve the problem with speed on the roads. But then there will be nothing to rob people for? yes gentlemen in power)

This was already many years ago (in the last century). Everything worked. And in this century, the speed limit has increased, and the roads have become worse than in the last century.

I think it's better to do it differently. Cars exceeding 60 km/h are prohibited from driving on roads, but only on sports tracks.

Hello.

What relevant signs are mentioned in the note to paragraph 10.2? If about sign 3.24, which is used as an example at the beginning of your article, then in my subjective opinion this is not correct, because sign 3.24 is prohibitive, here is an example: on a section of the road we see sign 3.24 (90), this sign prohibits exceeding the speed indicated on the sign, which means that the speed above that indicated on the sign 3.24 was allowed earlier. You see, you can't ban something that's not allowed.

Need new sign used separately or in conjunction with signs 5.1 and 5.3, and put in order the 10th section, otherwise it turns out that: The speed of movement on the motorway is regulated by the clause on the speed of movement OUTSIDE the settlement, and the note of clause 10.2 regulates the speed of movement IN THE SETTLEMENT at the speed established for the motorway, but this speed is allowed on the motorway OUTSIDE of the settlement.

I rented a car for 5 days, I returned it in a short time. 3 days after the delivery, the owner of the car asked me to pay a fine for speeding fixed by technical means (the camera took a picture). I decided to act according to my conscience and was going to pay. And again a complaint was received that another fine had come, in it the amount was already 2000 rubles for a repeated offense. I looked at the fines and it turned out that before the first fine I received, the owner of the car had 2 more unpaid fines also for exceeding, and the penalty for the repetition issued to "me" was already the fourth in a week. But the previous 2 are not mine! How to arrive in the given situation???

Ruslan, fines for violations that you have committed must be paid. Fines for other periods should not be paid, let the owner of the car deal with them.

Good luck on the roads!

I have a question. The car is registered to me. The first time speeding was my wife, and the second time (within a year) already me and what to do? How to be?

and what to do? How to be?

Comply with traffic rules. Or not get caught.

Ildar, the fine is imposed on the owner of the vehicle. If, after the first violation, the wife did not contact the traffic police to "rewrite" the fine for herself, then both fines are imposed on you. In the second case, punishment will be imposed for repeated violation of the rules.

Good luck on the roads!

Eugene-189

Question - I exceeded the speed limit in the city by 20-40 km. After 4 months, a bailiff 500 rubles was taken from my card and passbook. The most interesting thing is that I did not receive a letter and did not know anything at all. The violation was recorded on camera (tripod). You might be better off with 100% payment.

Eugene, I'm not going to collect fines from car owners, so it's absolutely not profitable for me.

Better yet, just follow the rules of the road. As practice shows, it is not difficult at all.

Good luck on the roads!

Evgenia-24

Maxim, hello!

2 days ago I immediately received 2 fines for speeding (I was driving within the city at a speed of 88-90 km / h), and it turned out that the cameras (tripods) recorded me on the same day and almost in the same place (the time difference in the photo is 1.5 minutes).

The question is: is it legal to demand 2 fines from me for the same violation, if Article 4.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses says that "No one can bear administrative responsibility twice for the same administrative offense."

Article 4.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses says that "No one can be held administratively liable twice for the same administrative offense."

Evgenia-24, why do you think that speeding with an interval of 1.5 minutes is one violation?

Evgenia, Hello.

Specify whether the fines came from one camera or from different ones? Did you pass them 1 time or 2?

I increased the speed in the city by 40 km / h, but the owner of the car is the father. He received an SMS, they say so and so, pay. There are no questions, I'll pay, because my cant. BUT! If during this week that I went and did not know about the fine, I hit more fines, then what will be the consequences for my father? Suppose (roughly speaking) I increased the speed there 2 more times by the same 40 km / h. Repeat penalties(2000-2500)? Or is it deprivation?

Suppose (roughly speaking) I increased the speed there 2 more times by the same 40 km / h.

In order not to be deprived during the second one - do not exceed more than 60 km / h (if the camera captures - only a fine of 5 tr). Repeated from 40 to 60 costs 2 - 2.5 tr.

Pauline, if at least one of the violations is speeding by 60 km / h or more, then warn the father about this. The fact is that if he repeatedly exceeds the speed limit by 60 km / h or more and the violation is recorded by employees (not cameras), then he will be deprived of his rights.

Good luck on the roads!

Chapter 11

87. When choosing the speed of movement, the driver must take into account the speed limits established by paragraphs 88, 89 of these Rules and technical means organization of traffic, as well as traffic intensity, visibility of the road, features and condition of the vehicle and the cargo carried by it, road, weather (meteorological) conditions and other factors that reduce the transparency of the atmosphere and affect the visibility of the road in the direction of travel. Wherein:

87.1. V dark time days and/or insufficient visibility road speed should allow the driver to stop the vehicle within sight of the road in the direction of travel;

87.2. in the event of an obstacle or danger to traffic that the driver is able to detect, he is obliged to immediately take measures to reduce the speed of movement, up to the stop of the vehicle.

88. Traffic is allowed in built-up areas Vehicle at a speed of no more than 60 km/h, and towing motor vehicles - no more than 50 km/h, in residential and pedestrian areas, in adjacent territories - no more than 20 km/h.

89. Outside built-up areas, movement is allowed at the following speeds:

89.1. cars and trucks with a technically permissible total weight no more than 3.5 tons on motorways - no more than 110 km/h, on other roads - no more than 90 km/h;

89.2. buses and motorcycles - no more than 90 km/h;

89.3. buses, cars and trucks when driving with a trailer, trucks with a technically permissible total weight of more than 3.5 tons on motorways - no more than 90 km / h, on other roads - no more than 70 km / h;

90. Taking into account road conditions and ensuring road safety, the speed allowed by paragraphs 88 and 89 of these Rules can be changed (lowered or increased) by using road signs "Maximum speed limit".

The action of the road signs "Maximum speed limit" does not apply to the vehicles specified in paragraph 88 of these Rules, towing power-driven vehicles, and to the vehicles listed in subparagraphs 89.4-89.7 of paragraph 89 of these Rules, if the speed indicated on these signs exceeds the limit the maximum speed set in these positions.

91.4. create an obstacle to traffic, moving without compelled need at low speed, as well as moving at a lower speed than established by the road sign "Restriction minimum speed»;

91.5. brake hard unless required to prevent an accident.

Good afternoon, dear reader.

The second article in the series "Rules of the road outside the city" will address issues related to speed limit on country roads.

Well, today we will talk about choosing a speed outside settlements:

Maximum speed outside the city

On motorways

The maximum permitted speed on the roads Russian Federation is currently 130 km/h. At this speed, you can simultaneous fulfillment of two conditions:

  • The sign 5.1 "Motorway" was installed.
  • Sign 3.24 "Maximum speed limit" was set with a value of 130.

Note. This combination of road signs is extremely rare on the roads. If you come across similar highways, then write about them in the comments to the article.

On normal roads

On ordinary country roads, the maximum speed limit is:

However, this does not mean that a passenger car can always travel at a speed of 90 km/h outside the city. There are numerous conditions under which the speed must be reduced and these will be discussed below.

Limiting the maximum speed of movement using the sign 3.24

Prohibition sign 3.24 "Maximum speed limit" is one of the most popular signs on country roads:

3.24 "Maximum speed limit". It is forbidden to drive at a speed (km/h) exceeding that indicated on the sign.

The meaning of this sign depends on the number inscribed in the red circle.

For example, if the sign shows the number 70, then you can not go faster than 70 km / h.

In most cases, the sign is used specifically for speed limit reduction.

However, sign 3.24 can also be used for increase permitted speed. Clause 10.3:

Note. By decision of the owners or owners highways speed increases may be allowed on road sections for certain types vehicles, if road conditions ensure safer movement at higher speeds.

For example, suppose there is a sign on a country road with a limit of 90 km/h:

For cars this sign does not change anything. However, it applies to all types of vehicles. Therefore, for trucks of category C, which are normally limited to 70 km/h, this sign raises the maximum permitted speed to 90 km/h.

Stepped speed limit

Consider the features of the installation of signs 3.24, which are unknown to most drivers. We are talking about the fact that if a small speed of movement is set on a section of the road, then the signs should set in steps in increments of 20 km/h. This is regulated by the requirements of GOST R 52289-2004 (clause 5.4.22):

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 speed limit in increments of no more than 20 km/h by sequential installation of signs 3.24 at a distance of 100-150 m from each other.

It is allowed not to apply a stepped speed limit in front of a settlement marked with sign 5.23.1 or 5.23.2, if the visibility distance of the sign is more than 150 m.

Thus, when organizing repairs on country roads, a combination of signs "70 - 50 - 40" can be used and a separate sign "40" cannot be used. Otherwise, the installation of the sign is a violation of the requirements of GOST.

End of sign 3.24 area

There are several conditions under which the value is canceled road sign 3.24.

1. End of the maximum speed limit zone

The simplest case. Sign 3.25 "End of the maximum speed limit zone" indicates the end of the restriction:

2. End of the zone of all restrictions

The second situation is the sign 3.31 "End of the zone of all restrictions" installed on the road:

3. Area of ​​effect

Third option. Together with the sign 3.24, a sign 8.2.1 "Scope of action" can be installed:

In this case, the speed limit is valid only on the section of the road, the length of which is indicated on the plate (in the example - 100 meters).

Let's figure out how to determine the end of a dangerous section without leaving the car. You can do this using the car odometer(a device for measuring the distance traveled by a car or mileage).

If you meet sign 3.24 with sign 8.2.1 on the road, then immediately look at the odometer and remember its current reading. Add to it the value given on plate 8.2.1. This will be the end of the dangerous section. After that, you should look at the odometer from time to time to determine the place where the restriction ends.

When calculating, it makes sense to leave a small margin of distance (100 meters). It's better to drive slower for a little longer than to get caught for speeding.

4. Another sign 3.24

The fourth case - a new sign 3.24 "Maximum speed limit" was installed on the road. In this case, the speed limit set by the new sign applies.

5. Crossroads

The operation of the sign 3.24 is interrupted when the car enters the intersection. It must be remembered that exits from adjacent territories, as well as intersections with field and forest roads that are not marked with appropriate signs, do not cancel the operation of sign 3.24.

6. Beginning and end of the settlement

The last situation is the presence of signs on the road indicating the beginning or end of the settlement. It is important to note that sign 3.24 is canceled only by signs 5.23.1, 5.23.2, 5.24.1, 5.24.2, 5.26:

Pay attention sign 5.25 does not cancel previously introduced speed limit:

7. The maximum speed limit is not canceled

In practice, when driving outside the city, you can find signs 3.24, the effect of which nothing is canceled. Their action can extend to tens of kilometers to the nearest settlement.

This state of affairs does not please drivers, however, in the described case, it is necessary to adhere to the speed indicated on the prohibition sign.

On country roads, you can also find an information sign 6.2 "Recommended speed":

6.2 "Recommended speed". The speed at which traffic is recommended on this section of the road. The zone of action of the sign extends to the nearest intersection, and when sign 6.2 is used in conjunction with a warning sign, it is determined by the length of the dangerous section.

This sign does not oblige drivers to anything, so you can decide for yourself whether to follow its recommendations or not.

Minimum speed limit

The rules of the road provide a sign that limits the minimum speed:

4.6 "Minimum speed limit". Driving is allowed only at the specified or higher speed (km/h).

Moreover, the end of the zone of action of this sign, unlike the sign 3.24, can be indicated in only one way - by the sign 4.7:

Note. In the presence of the sign "Minimum speed limit" it is impossible to stop the car without violating the rules of the road, i.e. it turns out that in the zone of action of this sign are prohibited.

Entrances to and exits from settlements

Do not forget that the maximum speed, in addition to the sign 3.24, can also be limited by the entrances to settlements, which are indicated by the corresponding signs on a white background:

When entering even the smallest village marked with such a sign, it is required to slow down to 60 km/h.

Re-accelerate to 90 km / h is possible only after the car passes the sign indicating the end of the settlement:

Note. Signs indicating the beginning of a settlement are usually installed on right side roads, so it is quite difficult not to notice them. As for the signs indicating the end of the settlement, they can be installed both to the right and to the left of the carriageway. Therefore, it is not always possible to notice them.

Fines for speeding on the highway

A detailed table of fines for speeding is given in a separate article:

Let me remind you that in 2019, fines are imposed for exceeding the speed limit by 20 km/h or more. The size of the fine directly depends on how much the speed is exceeded. The minimum penalty is 500 rubles, the maximum - deprivation of rights for 12 months.

Penalties for driving too slow

The Code of Administrative Offenses does not provide for a separate article containing punishment for driving at too low a speed (if there is a sign 4.6). However, for this violation, the driver can be punished under part 1 of article 12.16 for non-compliance with traffic signs.

Over too low speed you can get a warning or a fine 500 rubles.

Note. In this case, it does not matter how much the speed of the car was less than the value indicated on the sign. The penalty will be the same.

Good luck on the roads!

Good evening.

Should drivers obey the "speed limit" sign associated with "repair work" outside the city if:

No workers on the road (lunch or end of work day)

The road has been repaired (works have been completed), but the signs have not been removed?

Sincerely, Elena.

Alexey-20

Hello! Is there a speed limit on dirt roads? an accident occurred on dirt road I would like to know.

According to SDA speed not limited by the type of road surface. Either the signs, or the locality, or outside the locality.

However, it seems that paragraph 10.1 (EMNIP) is still there, but everything is very purely ...

I'm interested in the next point. If we drive along the highway for example Moscow - Nizhny Novgorod. In some area are conducted repair work. Therefore, they set speed limits (70 - 50 - 30 km / h for example). And if there are no workers (they ended their working day) or the road was repaired, but the signs were not removed (forgotten). Should we respect the speed limit??

Must. Temporary signs are valid as long as they are installed, regardless of whether repairs are being carried out on this site.

Good afternoon My question may seem stupid, but still ... The classic situation is a city, a sign 3.24 (40km) is set, followed by 3.24 (20km) with a sign 8.2.1 (100m). The question is - 100 meters after the 20 km / h sign, at what speed can you move? Has the 20km/h sign canceled the earlier 40km/h sign?

How fast should you drive around town? June 2nd, 2015

20? thirty? 50? 60? 80 or 100? Everyone has their own thoughts on this. If you look at the city, then there are only more questions: for some reason, on avenues as straight as an arrow with wide lanes, restrictions are set at 40 km.h., And on narrow streets they are allowed to fly at a speed of 80 km.h.

Who is right, and how should one drive?

On city streets, the speed should not exceed 50 km.h., and in a residential area no more than 30 km.h. Let's be honest, the world paid for this information in the truest sense of the word with blood - thousands of people suffered and lost their lives during the dawn of the automobile era, when the whole world believed that this transport was the future. That time is characterized by the construction of interchanges on the streets of the city, an attempt to hide pedestrians under the ground, giving the streets to a new high-speed mode of transport. Oh, those beautiful 60-70s of the last century ...

However, the attempt to force people out of the streets did not work out - no matter how, but throughout human history, the streets were built and existed specifically for people. On the other hand, it is purely economically impossible to hide people completely from the streets - the construction of interchanges and off-street crossings is too expensive a toy, and urban development does not allow this everywhere. Therefore, a strange situation turned out when the cars were allowed to drive fast, but they persistently continued to knock people down. And people, meanwhile, are quite a valuable taxpayer resource of any city and state. In addition, road safety suffered in general - the number of accidents only grew - there were more and more victims among drivers and passengers.

Statistics on road deaths during the era of mass motorization in the United States

As you know, if there is a problem, then they try to solve it, and our issue is no exception. Oddly enough, it was not potholes on the roads, people running across, and not the State Department that were to blame for this situation - speed was to blame. Scientists have found that what more speed, the less time the driver has to react, the more braking distances and the problem of tunnel vision is more acute.


In addition, the price of a high-speed road was too expensive, because interchanges and wide roads were needed, which occupy the most valuable urban resource - land. Often, such construction was not complete without the demolition of houses, which is also far from cheap.

At the same time, measurements showed that an elementary decrease in speed to 50 km.h. not only significantly increases a person’s chances of survival, but also does not critically affect time delays:


The data in the table does not include traffic lights.

Therefore, about 30 years ago, a course was taken to rethink transport planning, cities stopped trying to make streets suitable for high-speed traffic vehicles. First, this trend was outlined in Europe, and then in the homeland. mass car- in the USA and North America generally.

Currently, in almost all developed countries, the speed limit is set at 50 km/h and 30 km/h in the city by law, however, cities are going further, introducing a 30 km/h mode on most streets in order to improve the safety and convenience of residents. This is done in a number of ways, but we will talk about this another time.

One of the districts of London, where all streets except one have a speed limit of 30 km / h (in the photo speed in miles).

Moreover, the residents of the districts are even proud of the fact that they were the first to introduce such a restriction.

How so?! What if I need to quickly get to the other end of the city??!

You need to understand that there are streets that are not intended for fast driving, but besides them there are also roads - these are high-speed intra-city highways, or, as they are called, the second contour of the city's road network. This is what many motorists dream of - a road created exclusively for personal vehicles, there are no pedestrians and no public transport and complete separation of flows. Due to these measures, it turns out to strike a balance between comfortable speed driving at speeds from 60 to 120 km/h and safety.

Such roads are built either next to railway roads, or in industrial zones, but not in residential areas, because this significantly reduces the standard of living of citizens and breaks the area into two parts. In addition, in residential areas there is simply not always a place for such a road. In addition, such roads are usually paid, which allows you to control supply and demand, which is why there are no traffic jams on these roads.

Toll point on the WHSD.

Unfortunately, in Russia, only the Western High-Speed ​​Diameter, which is under construction in St. Petersburg, falls under this term. In Moscow, the Fourth Ring could have become such a road, but, as we all know, it did not grow together.


Photo

If we talk about Moscow, then almost all transport facilities were built with urban planning and transport errors - it is impossible to make a high-speed road out of the street. First, as mentioned above, it makes the street dangerous place for those around you. Secondly, it breaks the fabric of the city, cutting one district into two islands (like a river or a railway). Thirdly, the urban environment along such roads also suffers - people simply cannot talk on the street, because they do not hear each other, add here a huge amount of exhaust and dust.

Well, the most significant from the point of view of transport is that the streets can not cope with the flow, because even by making one section high-speed, you will not make the rest of the streets capable of receiving an increased flow of traffic. In addition, there will be no acceleration lanes from other streets and there will be large overruns when perpendicular streets are simply torn apart by a high-speed road, as happened with Tverskaya, for example:

I repeat, it was for these reasons that it was decided to abandon express roads instead of city streets in favor of calm city traffic. Safety, rationality and comfort are the three principles of city streets, which are completely crossed out by the permitted speed above 50 km/h.

In the following parts, we will move from theory to practice, see what is wrong with Moscow streets and roads now, and also think about how to create conditions where it would be comfortable for both motorists and all other road users.

A common violation of the rules governing traffic is the failure of drivers to comply with the speed limit when driving both in settlements and on the highway. There is practically no driver who, for various reasons, would not allow it. When a violation is fixed, traffic police fines for speeding are issued.

Traffic rules have set a speed limit

The rules of the road regulate the speed limit when driving in all settlements, as well as on highways and highways. 60 km / h - the speed allowed by traffic rules when driving within settlements. On the highways it is already allowed to move up to 90 km / h. When entering the motorway, you can accelerate to maximum limit 110 km/h To reduce the likelihood of accidents on hazardous areas additional speed limits are set. Drivers who ignore the requirements of road signs, as well as allowable excess speeds are often the cause of road accidents.

Limits

Traffic rules oblige the driver to move at a speed corresponding to the established restrictions on the road section, while taking into account the intensity traffic flow, road conditions and weather conditions.

Develops every year Automotive industry, the quality of vehicles improves, as a result, speeding occurs more often. However, the road infrastructure can not cope with the pace of development of the automotive industry. The disadvantage is the presence of ground crossings, low quality roads and other reasons do not allow drivers to drive with high speed. All these circumstances make it necessary to introduce it on some dangerous sections of roads. There are roads with high-quality coverage, good visibility and the absence of any circumstances that impede fast movement.

Established restrictions in such areas slow down the flow of cars and force drivers to break the speed limit. Is it always a violation to exceed it? In 2013, amendments to the legislation established that the driver would be liable for exceeding the speed limit by 20 km. Thus, legislators have established a minor speed at which the driver should not be held liable.

But do not rejoice and exceed the speed limit. In the event of an accident, if the driver exceeds the speed limit by even 1 km / h, you will have to bear responsibility.

Exceeded the speed - pay

The law provides various options Speeding is documented by video cameras and police officers using special devices.

Drivers who ignore traffic rules and violate the speed limit will be punished. How much the fine for speeding will have to pay depends on the amount by which the speed limit is exceeded.

Video recording cameras: features of responsibility

When recording violations by video cameras, for example, speeding by 20 km, there are features of holding the driver accountable:


Speeding-2014: fines

Amendments in the field of traffic safety, which entered into force in September 2013, changed the penalties for non-compliance with the speed limit:

The decision on the impunity of drivers for "minor" exceeding the speed limit has already been reflected in the statistics of accidents due to non-compliance with the rules by drivers. Thus, according to official traffic police data for January-April 2014, the number of accidents increased by 4.6% compared to the same period of that year. At the same time, 6.4% more people died. In connection with these circumstances, the State Duma intends to re-approve a fine for non-compliance with speed on roads by 10-20 km / h, but only for settlements. According to preliminary information, the violation will cost the driver 500 rubles (until the autumn of last year, a fine of 100 rubles or a warning was provided).

Exceeded the speed limit - and deprivation of rights?

It is necessary to know and remember that not every speeding can cause parting with driving license. Basically, for non-compliance with the speed limit, various penalties are assigned, the size of which is proportional to the magnitude of the excess. If the violation is 60 km / h or more, then this can really already threaten with the withdrawal of rights for up to 6 months. For a period of at least 6 months, you can part with a driver's license if you ignore the permissible speed limit of 20 km / h and drive at a speed exceeding the permitted speed by 80 km / h.

Do not lose heart ahead of time, because the reasons for speeding can be different. In addition, only the court has the right to decide on the deprivation of the right to drive the vehicle, and the withdrawal is carried out after the entry into force of the decision.

After stopping for speeding by 20 km / h or more, the traffic police inspector is obliged to record the violation, collect evidence, draw up a protocol on the violation and then send all the materials to the court. Here you should not let everything take its course, then for sure the decision will deprive you of your rights and, alas, will not be taken into account.

Documenting Violations

The 2014 speeding fines are harsh. Therefore, you need to know how the traffic police officer is obliged to act, and this will protect you.

The fact of speed violations is recorded by special measuring instruments, which must have a quality certificate and a document confirming the passage of the metrological test.

By general rule"presumption of innocence" a person held liable does not have to prove innocence in justification. However, there are exceptions in the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, for which, in case of violations in the field of traffic rules on the roads and when violations are recorded by special automatic means, the presumption of innocence does not apply.

It turns out that the traffic police officer does not have to prove anything: he showed the measurements of the device and that's it, the fault is proven. Such a conclusion suggests itself from a note in the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

Driver's rights

If you have committed an offense, and everything was recorded without violating established procedures, you can ask the inspector a question, after which he will be obliged to prove your guilt. Here's how to act in practice so that all rights are respected, which many drivers do not know about:

  1. After the traffic police inspector reported that speeding was allowed, you can legally demand to present the device to familiarize yourself with the testimony. On a modern device, a car should be clearly visible with state number and speed readings. You can't argue with data like this.
  2. Demand to show documents for the device used to fix the offense. Employees must have certificates and an inspection certificate with them.
  3. Make sure that there are seals on the device and that the device number matches the documents presented.
  4. If the excess is small, then pay attention to the weather, since the radar readings are distorted when heated, this should be reflected in the protocol.

The traffic police officer may ignore the requirements and refuse to present documents. By law, you have the right to familiarize yourself with the materials available. The fact of refusal must be reflected in the protocol, noting that you were not presented with documents for the device for review.

The same entry in the protocol should be left if photocopies of the required documents were submitted. In this case, the blueprint is not a document of instrument suitability. Therefore, ask to present original documents to the radar.

Drivers should remember!

When driving a car, always remember that a speed limit of 20 km/h can cost someone their life. Better to be late and arrive later than not to arrive at all. Life can not return anything, even a lot of money. So think about yourself, your loved ones and those around you. Laws change every year, fines either increase or decrease. And the situation on the roads does not change significantly and will not change until we ourselves stop violating traffic rules.
