FISHERS - DRIVERS ON A NOTE.

Departure on the ice outside the ice crossings is prohibited, the risk of equipment failure is very high. in the Novosibirsk region, there have been repeated cases of people and equipment falling through the ice, and tragedy has not always been avoided. Most often they occur in spring or autumn, when the thickness of the ice is already too small or not yet sufficient. It is most dangerous to move on the ice in a vehicle in the spring. It is at this time that the structure of the ice is destroyed. Such a cover easily breaks under the weight of a person, not to mention a car. Basically, on the ice, excessive confidence and driving while intoxicated destroys. Even experienced drivers are not immune from insidious ice traps. Falling through the ice occurs unexpectedly and rapidly. In a matter of seconds, a car can be under the ice.” Departure on the ice by cars outside the ice crossings is a violation of the law. Violators may be held administratively liable.

State inspectors of the GIMS Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Russian Federation warn: fans of winter fishing should refrain from driving on the ice!

FISHERMEN ABOUT EXITS ON THE ICE :

My opinion is that if you came for fishing, then why drive on the ice in a car, I just can’t understand this!

Yes, you walk a few meters on foot and fish for your pleasure.

I’ve seen enough of these fishermen driving on the ice, you’re just amazed, some of these tricks on cars are written out that the fish are uncomfortable, not to mention the fishermen themselves.

Probably only here in Russia, fishermen have such a burning need to drive a car onto the ice, just rudeness towards the surrounding fishermen!

Drivers!

Do not put your life and the lives of loved ones in danger .

“It’s like banning biathlon because of the statistics of deaths from gunshots”

In the Urals, motorsport came under attack due to an attempt to put things in order with the departure of cars on the ice

Autodrom on VIZ

The government of the Sverdlovsk region decided to put an end to any road transport on the ice outside the authorized ice crossings. As it became known to the site, motorsportsmen have already expressed their protest against such a struggle of officials for the safety of people and with the pollution of water bodies. In winter, several winter ice autodromes operate in the Middle Urals. The most famous of them are located on the Verkh-Isetsky pond in Yekaterinburg near the beach complex "Kuba" and Lake Baltym in Verkhnyaya Pyshma near the recreation center "Forest Fairy Tale". With the adoption of the new rules, they will all be outlawed.

Sergei Remennik, the bronze medalist of the European Rally Championship, announced on the site the forthcoming changes in the rules for the use of water bodies, which involve toughening critical for ice autodromes. “In fact, we will be banned from any trip to the ice, what dictated this, I don’t understand. Who gets in the way of motorsportsmen? I think that the VIZ plant (part of the NLMK group - site) causes much more harm to the water body than our 50 cars. Moreover, our cars leave the ice well prepared - without oil leaks, spare parts do not disappear. Fishermen, bathing citizens, or those who came to barbecue leave heaps of garbage, but who cares? - the athlete is outraged.

According to him, not a single emergency with a drowned or even seriously injured rider has been recorded at any legal ice circuit in the Sverdlovsk region for all the years of their existence.

Moreover, the organizers of the ice racetracks are private investors who officially rent sections of reservoirs for motorsport from the Ministry of Natural Resources of the Sverdlovsk Region. In the case of the ice circuit at VIZ, for example, the initiator was the ex-co-owner of the Tagansky Ryad, the 2009 European rally champion Vadim Makarov.

“The government has not built us a single complex where you can engage in motorsport. But now they, it seems, also want to ban what is organized by the efforts of motorsport fans themselves, ”summed up Remennik.

According to Evgeny Fomichev, the president of the Motorsport Federation of the Middle Urals, this is about the amendment of the decree of the government of the Sverdlovsk region No. 613 of 2007 on the rules of conduct at water bodies, which is being prepared in the bowels of the Ministry of Natural Resources of the region. “The resolution itself is rather old, and, probably, it is time to refresh this document. According to the information we have, new edition ordinances will try to exclude any possible impact on the process of restoration of water resources. We have already been openly told that water bodies where there are drains and tributaries will be banned from being used for motorsport, ”Fomichev explained.

He did not rule out that athletes would be allowed to use water bodies, but these would be swampy water bodies and not having supply and waste systems. “Such reservoirs, as a rule, are located far away and do not have normal entrances. All this is unlikely to work for motorsport, because we need at least some kind of infrastructure. The ability to ensure security, including providing entrances for ambulances, firefighters, the possibility of the presence of spectators and journalists,” Fomichev said.

Sergei Remennik's Facebook page

He cites Finland as an example, where forest tracks and water bodies are actively used for motorsport. “They don’t see any pollution. At the same time, Finland gave the world a lot of great racers, and average level driving skill in the country is much higher than ours. Why? Roughly speaking, there is a karting track in every village and children from an early age have the opportunity to learn to ride. In our country, 50 people die on the roads every day. This figure just keeps me in a state of nervous excitement, ”Fomichev admitted.

Marina Pritula, spokeswoman for the Ministry of Natural Resources of the Sverdlovsk Region, confirmed that the agency is currently working on changes to the rules for protecting people's lives in water bodies. In particular, it is proposed to introduce restrictions on the movement of vehicles on the ice outside the ice crossings.

“The initiative is aimed primarily at ensuring the safety of people. Thus, today the thickness of the ice is regularly monitored only in places of ice crossings, where measurements are carried out three times a day during the thaw period. Besides,

as a result of the organization of car races on ice, worn out tires, broken bumpers, other parts of vehicles, as well as fuels and lubricants, which are a source of significant pollution of water bodies, get into water bodies,” Prytula noted.

The ministry also points out that more than 400 types of substances emitted during the operation of vehicles have a negative impact on the quality of water in water bodies.

Officials offer athletes to reorient themselves, instead of natural reservoirs, to use specially prepared areas for races for their training and competitions.

An example is the stadium of the Ural Turbine Plant in Yekaterinburg, which is already being used for these purposes.

Maxim Chentsov's Facebook page

The manager of the ice circuit on Lake Baltym, Maxim Chentsov, generally supports the initiative to correct the 613th resolution, but with a reservation. "IN this case the project of changes went somehow too one-sidedly, without taking into account the interests of 10,000 Sverdlovsk residents involved in motorsport, ranging from children's karting to professional rally, and everyone who is in the middle between these types, ”said Chentsov.

On the Lena River, residents, trying to save a drowned fuel truck and truck crane, drowned two tractors

He considers the arguments of the Ministry of Natural Resources untenable. “As well as GIMS at ice crossings, we measure the thickness of the ice, and monitoring is carried out on a daily basis. I can say that as of the end of yesterday, the thickness of the ice at our ice circuit at its thinnest point was 51 centimeters. For understanding. On European ice circuits, where this tradition came from, they begin to skate at a thickness of 20 centimeters. According to the rules of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia, with an ice thickness of 50 centimeters, it is allowed to move a load weighing 40 tons, that is, a T-90 tank or a self-propelled gun, through a water body. I can officially say that in the ten years of practice of ice racetracks in the Urals, we have not had a single case when cars went under the ice, ”Chentsov cited his counterarguments.

Claims about tires, broken bumpers and missing parts that remain on the ice after the riders, he also brushes aside. “If we leave tires on the ice, how do we get ashore? All this is just ridiculous. Our cars go on the ice through the checkpoint, where they are checked for all leaks, up to the washer fluid leaks. If we collect any garbage on the ice, then these are bottles and cans of vodka, beer and juice that remain after the fishermen, ”says the source.

“We understand that GIMS has annual statistics of people and vehicles that have fallen through the ice. But what does this have to do with us? This, as a rule, is about poachers who drive their broken-down UAZs on the last ice.

Punishing motorsports athletes for their actions is like banning biathlon because of the criminal statistics of deaths from gunshot wounds kept by the police.

It is unlikely that anyone in their right mind will dare to blame the peasants who ski through the forest with guns on skis, ”added Chentsov at the end of the conversation.

Conflict flares up in Verkhnyaya Pyshma over an ice circuit on Lake Baltym

Meanwhile this week Siberian regional center The Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia recommended the main departments of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia in the subjects of Siberia, the Urals and the Far East to declare war on unauthorized ice crossings. This is due to the emergency that occurred near the village of Krivaya Luka in the Kirensky district of the Irkutsk region. There, a fuel truck fell through the ice, then a truck crane trying to rescue it, and then a caterpillar tractor that came to their aid.

In the Sverdlovsk region, GIMS inspectors have already reported that they managed to identify four unauthorized ice crossings, along which motorists moved at the risk of their lives. Three of them operated on the Ufa River in the Krasnoufimsky district, the fourth - on the Verkh-Neyvinsky pond. Violators who tried to drive along the ice crossings were fined from 3 to 5 thousand rubles. These situations have nothing to do with motorsport.

However, financial penalties are usually small and for many are not an obstacle to commit violations.

Most often, tragedies happen in the spring or autumn season, when the thickness of the ice is already too small or not yet sufficient.

The fact that anglers are not overly concerned about penalties has led GIMS to decide to increase them significantly. In addition, they propose to force offenders to pay for rescue measures.

Now let's take a closer look at what penalty is provided for when driving on an ice surface in your car.

Legal aspects

The procedure for driving on the ice floor by car is regulated by the Rules for the Protection of the Life of Citizens in Water Bodies.

According to this document places prohibited for driving on the ice must be marked with warning signs. Therefore, in winter, by car, you can proceed from one to the other coast only along the crossings equipped for this.

However, in practice, drivers most often make disastrous decisions under the influence of alcohol. However, many do not pose a degree of danger. Meanwhile, you need to know that thick ice does not guarantee one hundred percent that the vehicle will pass quietly. Large reservoirs have enough ice openings and cracks where the car can fall through. And it happens very quickly - in a few seconds. In this situation, getting out alive is almost impossible.

The authorities of the regions to prevent such incidents carry out various measures for preventive purposes. Patrols of law enforcement officers and GIMS employees are also organized. Much attention is paid to popular places among fans of ice fishing.

Every year in Russia, hundreds of motorists are fined for violating the rules for driving on the ice. The amount of penalties depends on the regions.

Often the perpetrators get off with a small amount of 0.5 to 1 thousand rubles.

So for what actions the authorized bodies have the right to fine? The following is prohibited:

• departure vehicle in those places on the ice where there are no special crossings, equipped in accordance with safety rules;
• exit on foot to areas where prohibition signs are located;
• riding or walking after warming or during the period of freezing.

It must be understood that violation of these rules can lead to death. Administrative legislation provides for the following fines:

• 500 - 1,000 from ordinary citizens;
• from 1.5 to 5 thousand from officials;
• 5,000 - 8,000 from legal.

What threatens the offender in the Vologda region

According to the 14th article of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the region, leaving tractors or cars on the ice in places not equipped for this is punishable by a fine of 2 to 5 thousand rubles. The exception here is snowmobiles, both handicraft and industrial production.

Equipped places for crossing water bodies on ice should be considered those that are equipped in accordance with industry road standards (ODN). This means that the crossing must be designed, built, surveyed and put into operation.

According to statistics, patrols in the Vologda Oblast issue up to 10 protocols every weekend. The worst situation is in those reservoirs that are popular among fans of ice fishing - it happens there that up to 50 motorists are fined.

In the Amur region, the following tariffs:

• from 1 to 3 thousand for ordinary citizens;
• for persons holding certain positions - from 3 to 5.

Fines can be issued by both administrative commissions and members of local authorities.

In the Sverdlovsk region, ice fishing enthusiasts who violate the previously mentioned ban face fines ranging from 3,000 to 6,000. Moreover, the punishment applies to motorists and motorcyclists.

It is most dangerous to move on the ice in a vehicle in the spring. It is at this time that the structure of the ice is destroyed. Such a cover easily breaks under the weight of a person, not to mention a car.

In the Altai Territory, violators are also very often identified during raids. A protocol is drawn up for each, and a fine of 3,000 is also imposed.

Lake Baikal is very popular in winter. A large number of fishermen and tourists come here from all over the country. Local law ruled that the first time the violator can get off with a warning. Otherwise, a fine is imposed, the amount of which is as follows:

• from 500 to 1000 - for citizens;
• from 3 to 5 thousand - officials;
• from 25 to 50 - legal.

Almost every year in Russia, fishing enthusiasts become victims of their own irresponsibility and excitement. In an effort to get away, they find themselves on breakaway ice floes or fall into the water along with the cars. Most often this happens in the autumn or spring periods, when the thickness of the ice cover is either not yet sufficient or is already too small.

The problem is often exacerbated by the fact that people once in the water simply do not have time to call for help.

In particular, Lake Baikal is an extremely popular place in winter season. A huge number of tourists and amateur fishermen come here from all over the country. Moreover, there are many areas where mobile connection does not work. Citizens usually prefer the most sparsely populated areas, which only makes it even more difficult to provide assistance when needed.

It is for this reason that the authorities decided to fine people for leaving the ice. However, monetary penalties are usually small and are not considered by many as a barrier to committing an offense.

In this regard, the GIMS believes that the amount of fines should be significantly increased. In addition, they offer more radical measure- force offenders to without fail pay for rescue activities.

In this article, we will tell you what is the current fine for citizens for going on the ice in their own car.

Legal nuances

The procedure for driving on ice in vehicles is regulated by the Rules for the Protection of the Life of Citizens in Water Bodies.

According to this document, places where driving directly onto the ice is prohibited must be marked with special warning signs. Therefore, a car can proceed in winter from one coast to another only along crossings adapted for this.

However, as practice shows, disastrous decisions are most often made by drivers under the influence of alcohol. Moreover, many do not even imagine the reality of the danger. Meanwhile, it is worth knowing that even thick ice is not a guarantee that the car will pass quietly. On large reservoirs there are many cracks and ice openings where a car can easily fall through. And it happens extremely quickly - literally in a few seconds. In this situation, the chance to get out alive is very small.

The authorities of the regions, in order to prevent such incidents, usually carry out certain preventive measures. Among other things, patrols are organized by law enforcement officers and representatives of the GIMS. Special attention paid, of course, to places popular among fans of ice fishing.

Every year, hundreds of motorists are fined in Russia for violating the ban on driving on the ice. Penalties vary by region. However, often the culprit gets off with a very symbolic amount - from 0.5 to 1 thousand rubles.

So what exactly authorized bodies can fine? The following actions are prohibited:

• leaving by car or other vehicle on the ice in places where there are no crossings organized in accordance with safety requirements;
• exit on foot in locations where prohibition signs are installed;
• walking or driving during the freezing period or after warming.

It should be understood that violation of these rules often leads to death. In addition, the administrative legislation provides for fines:

• from 500 to 1 thousand from ordinary citizens;
• from 1.5 to 5 are charged from officials;
• from 5 to 8 from legal.

Below are the amounts of penalties adopted in some regions of the Russian Federation.

What threatens the violator in the Vologda region

In accordance with Article 14 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the region, leaving cars or tractors on ice in areas not equipped for this is punishable by a fine of 2 to 5 thousand.

The exception in this case is pneumatic snowmobiles, both industrial and handicraft.

Places equipped for crossing water bodies on ice should be considered those that were equipped in accordance with the ODN (industry road standards). That is, the transition should be:

• designed;
• built;
• certified;
• accepted into service.

The last function is assigned to GIMS.

According to statistics, every weekend patrols in the Vologda Oblast make up to 10 protocols. The worst situation is in those reservoirs that are popular with fans of ice fishing - sometimes up to 50 cars are detected there.

Amur region

In this region, tariffs are more severe. In particular:

• citizens can lose from 1 to 3 thousand rubles;
• persons holding certain positions - from 3 to 5.

Both administrative commissions and representatives of local authorities have the right to impose penalties.

Sverdlovsk region

In this region, ice fishing enthusiasts who violate the previously mentioned ban face a fine of 3 to 6 thousand. Moreover, the punishment was introduced not only for motorists, but also for motorcyclists.

According to the GIMS staff, it is most dangerous to travel by car on ice in the spring. It is then that the structure of the ice is destroyed - it loses its transparency and strength. Such a cover is easily broken even under an ordinary person, not to mention a car.

How are things in the Altai Territory

In this region, also quite often, GIMS employees during raids identify violators driving a car onto the frozen surface of local reservoirs. A protocol is drawn up for each case. Basically, a fine of up to 3 thousand rubles is imposed.
