Traffic sign "Movement is prohibited." Traffic Laws

Prohibiting signs introduce certain restrictions on the movement of the vehicle or cancel them. Outwardly it is a circle: with a red border - an imposing restriction, with a black border - canceling. Usually, the limiting sign is set before the site to which it will operate, less often it is set in advance, accompanied by the information plate "Distance to the object". Before the intersection, as evidenced by the rules of the road, prohibiting signs may have signs indicating the direction of the action.

Favorite Sign

The most ambiguous sign and the second most important of the prohibiting for drivers and inspectors of DPS - "Movement is prohibited." A lot of car owners and lawyers believe that too much of this sign of exceptions.

The difference is obvious

In driving schools the essence of the sign "Entry forbidden" (brick) and "Movement prohibited" is explained in detail. The first - prohibits from the specified place the entrance to a certain part of the road to everyone (including disabled people and residents of the territory that is behind the prohibition sign). Relief is made only for route transport. But from any other place the entrance to this site is completely free.

A traffic sign "traffic prohibited" introduces a categorical ban on the movement of vehicles in a certain area. Theoretically, this sign has no territorial restriction. The beginning of the prohibition is the place where the sign is placed. If the prohibition extends to the side congresses, it is indicated by special plates that prohibit movement in the direction indicated by the arrows.

Since the traffic sign "Movement prohibited", according to the DD rules, restricts traffic in both directions of traffic, it is not installed at intersections that have a ramp to a one-way street.

An exceptional feature

The rules for road traffic provide for the exclusion of certain categories of vehicles.

The first who are allowed to ignore this sign are route vehicles (MTS). The only thing to remember about - a passenger bus or a "gazelle", returning to the park without passengers, no longer apply to the MTS. Therefore, the influence of the sign "Movement prohibited" extends to them.

The second category of TS, which has the right to disregard this sign, is the drivers who work or reside on the territory with a prohibitory sign. To confirm the registration, they must present a passport or other document confirming this. And if there is a place of work behind the sign - a service certificate.

This includes the service organizations and vehicles of the federal postal service. The latter, according to the rules, must have a white wide strip, passing diagonally through the side of the car. The first to confirm the purpose of the trip must be a voucher with an exact address or a waybill. However, they can enter the territory of the sign only from the nearest intersection.

The third category is drivers with disability groups I and II, and vehicles carrying citizens of the above categories, as well as children with disabilities. A disabled car must have a special identification mark, and he himself is a document confirming disability.

Prohibiting signs of traffic with explanations and comments can be studied both on the official website of the traffic police, and on any other one dedicated to traffic rules, but there is still an unsolvable question: how to be the owners of garages under the prohibitory sign "Movement prohibited"?

Installation locations

Depending on the purpose, the prohibiting sign "Movement prohibited" can be set:

• On any stretch of road or street in order to designate a zone for pedestrians;
• On the roadway or street in order to temporarily block the movement of vehicles (for example, during a mass event);
• In any place of the road or city highway in order to block traffic on the site being repaired;
• Before entering a lane, ending in a dead end, or in a courtyard with one entrance for the purpose of warning (it is installed together with a sign indicating a dead end);
• Before the checkpoint and / or entry to the official territory of organizations or enterprises.

Supplementary and specifying plaques

The sign "Movement prohibited", according to the rules of the DD, can be specified by a table with arrows. They indicate the specific direction in which the sign operates, or the plates on which the days and / or the time of the restriction are prescribed.

Responsibility for driving under the traffic sign "Movement prohibited"

The administrative responsibility for the violation of this sign is almost the lowest. According to the Code of Administrative Offenses, the minimum penalty is 500 rubles. This is explained by the very low probability of serious consequences for non-compliance with the requirements of this sign.

Auto counselors advise

If it happened to pass under this sign, in no case should you follow to the end of the prohibited site. It is necessary to make a stop. Let it be a post office, a shop, an educational institution, an office, etc. And then leave the forbidden territory through the same sign. Such actions of the driver do not violate the law. If the vehicle is still stopped by traffic police inspectors, it will be necessary to confirm the purpose of the trip.

Here I want to recall that in the rules of the DD, traffic is considered to be an organized movement of vehicles on specially equipped roads. The second condition for the movement is the intersection of two or more intersections. Theoretically, the traffic sign "Movement prohibited" implies the prohibition of transit traffic from one intersection to another. Consequently, entry and stop on this section of the road is not a violation.

Prohibition sign "Stop prohibited"

This sign is installed not only on intercity routes, but also in cities, in order to reduce the number of congestion and traffic jams on city streets.

Especially relevant is the sign "Stopped prohibited" on narrow streets, where it is difficult to part with the oncoming traffic.

This sign imposes a ban on all types of transport (excluding route) for a stop. In some cases, it is duplicated by road markings. It can be a curbstone or a solid yellow line. As prescribed by the rules of the road, the sign "Stopping prohibited" may be supplemented by information signs containing an indication of the area of validity of the prohibitory sign or the type of transport for which "Stopping prohibited" is installed.

The action of the mark can extend only on one lane and will spread to:

• Place of the beginning of a nearby settlement or its end (both must be certified by a special index);
• Intersection, the first from the point of installation of the sign;
• A sign that removes all restrictions.

In some cases traffic signs "Stopping prohibited" are accompanied by information plates indicating the length of the exclusion zone. Also, they can indicate the type of transport to which the sign acts. If the sign is installed without additional plates, then it is possible to stop under it only to route vehicles. These are buses, trolleybuses, etc. And a taxi, but on condition of running the counter.

The category of disabled drivers has the right to stop under this sign only if there is an additional plate that warns that the mark does not apply to them. This applies not only to car owners who have a disability group I or II, but also to drivers involved in the transportation of disabled people, including children.

Ignoring the sign "Stopping is prohibited" entails administrative punishment. Today his sum is 500 rubles. In cities of federal subordination this collection is exactly five times higher.

Important difference

The prohibitory sign "Stopping prohibited" and the traffic sign "Parking prohibited" are slightly different from each other. Stop, according to the rules of DD, can last no more than five minutes. Parking - the action is longer.

Sometimes a stop, due to prolonged maintenance of passengers or delay in loading and / or unloading, is considered a valid reason for the delayed stop, but not parking.

Movement that requires stopping

What kind of traffic sign prohibits traffic without stopping, even a child knows. This is the sign "STOP", or "Movement without stopping is prohibited." Install it usually before:

• The beginning of a special road zone;
• Stop line;
• The beginning of the crossed road.

The sign prescribes a mandatory stop. Ignoring leads to penalties. The amount varies depending on the location of the violation and type. For example, in a rural area the fine will be minimal, and in a megacity it is necessary to pay on a maximum.

The DD rules assume that you can read the same traffic signs differently. "Movement without stopping is prohibited", for example, installed at the railway crossing, obliges the driver to stop the car to the mark. The stop behind him is punishable by a fine, which will not happen if the vehicle stops behind the same sign, but installed before the intersection.

Traffic signs prohibiting the movement of trucks

The prohibiting sign on the movement of this type of vehicles without an inscription on the car body introduces a prohibition on the vehicle with a maximum mass (specified by the manufacturer) of more than 3.5 tons. If the body of the depicted car shows the figure "8", then the ban applies to vehicles weighing more than 8 tons.

The traffic sign "Cargo traffic is prohibited" will not apply to a car entering the restricted area from any side exit. ». And also on vehicles such as UAZ or Gazelle . There are still some exceptions. Under this sign vehicles are permitted to enter:

• Engaged in transportation of people;
• The federal postal service;
• Citizens living or working in the area of the sign;
• Serving the various organizations that are in the zone of the sign.

Drivers of the described vehicles should bear in mind that their route in the prohibition zone should be the shortest.

In the event of a car stopping under the sign "Cargo traffic is prohibited", drivers who are authorized to do so need to show the documents necessary for confirmation. This can be a passport with registration in a given area, a waybill, a waybill, etc. If there are no necessary papers, you will have to pay a fine. The administrative penalty for this violation is 500 rubles.
