How long does the temporary speed limit sign last. What is not a lifting of restrictions? But it's not that simple

The one who believes that the vast majority of accidents on Russian roads is due to an incorrectly chosen speed limit is not far from the truth. "The quieter you go, the further you'll get!". You say, an outdated saying? By no means! The correct choice of speed allows the driver to correctly assess the situation on the road - to feel and prevent danger.

Many drivers, when choosing a speed, think purely maximalist: at what speed should I drive so as not to be punished for exceeding? The principles of elementary safety, as a rule, are not taken into account. And absolutely in vain. After all, driving at a safe and adequate speed will avoid an accident or minimize the terrible consequences of an accident. And it doesn’t matter at all that the other driver is the culprit, and not you.

The relevance of the problem of the correct choice of speed is proved by the Rules of the Road themselves. Speed ​​limits on the roads of the Russian Federation are regulated by:

• signs and markings;
• special section of traffic rules.

Signs and markings regulating the speed limit

The most obvious way to regulate the speed limit are road signs and markings. Such options very clearly limit the maximum and minimum speed of vehicles.

1. Sign "Maximum speed limit" (3.24)

The prohibition sign "Maximum speed limit" (3.24) is the most popular on the road. In the area of ​​the sign, drivers are prohibited from moving at a speed exceeding the value indicated on the sign.

By the way, in combination it is also the sign most beloved by traffic cops. Very often, in the area of ​​​​the sign that limits the speed limit on the road, you can find either a stationary or a portable radar. And sometimes the traffic police inspectors themselves can be located in such areas.

Paradoxically, many drivers see the "Maximum Speed ​​Limit" sign as their enemy. This is not true. The speed limit sign is not in vain: most likely, it is installed in front of some dangerous section of the road, where the driver should be forced to slow down for maximum safety.

For example, when approaching a crosswalk...

or to a place of frequent appearance of children ...

or to artificial unevenness ...

or to a road repair site…

That is why the driver should regard the indicated sign as his ally and adviser, seeking to protect him from an accident. True, sometimes traffic police officers can create “traps” with the help of a sign - demands to reduce speed that are unjustified by the situation.

But the last example is still an exception. Let's think positive!

2. Sign "Minimum speed limit" (4.6)

There are sections of roads on which it would be advisable to regulate not the maximum, but the minimum speed. For example, to prevent traffic jams or congestion. For this purpose, the traffic rules apply a special prescriptive sign - "Minimum speed limit".

And most often, such a restriction applies to a specific lane. This requirement optimizes the movement process and makes it more efficient.

3. Sign "Beginning of lane" (5.15.3)

The appearance of a new lane for traffic (especially on the rise), as a rule, is supplied with a sign of special requirements - “Beginning of the lane”.

As you can see, in the sign field there are signs limiting the minimum speed. Therefore, the driver must follow the requirements of the sign when choosing a speed mode when driving in a particular lane.

4. Sign "Zone with maximum speed limit" (5.31)

Another sign of special regulations prohibits the driver from driving in excess of the specified speed limit.

Such a restriction applies to both sides of the road and extends exclusively to the stop sign - "End of the zone with a maximum speed limit" (5.32).

5. Sign "General maximum speed limits" (6.1)

This information sign is installed at the checkpoint (checkpoints) at the entrance to the territory of our country.

The sign limits nothing and no one; it simply informs about the general principles of the speed limit in force in the Russian Federation.

The vast majority of drivers undeservedly ignore the "Recommended speed" sign. They think this way: the sign simply recommends adhering to the specified speed limit, but this recommendation is not of any mandatory nature.

And let's look at the installation of the sign in a different way. Why is it installed? Obviously, this is due to some kind of danger to the movement. And now the main question: "Should the driver ignore the fact of danger on the road?".

The question is rhetorical!

7. Horizontal marking 1.24.2, duplicating road sign 3.24

The maximum speed limit set by the corresponding sign can be duplicated by markings.

In the event that the requirements of the sign and markings contradict each other, the driver must follow the instructions of the sign.

Let's make a preliminary conclusion. These methods of speed control are very clear and, therefore, understandable.

However, in addition to the considered signs and markings, there is a special section 10 in the Rules that regulates speed limits on the roads of Russia.

Section 10 SDA: maximum speed

When choosing a speed mode, the driver must take into account the speed limits imposed by the traffic rules on a particular section of the road. If road signs and markings do not indicate a different speed limit, then the driver must follow the general speed limits, which are regulated by Section 10 of the Rules.

In built-up areas, the entrances to which are marked with black and white signs “Beginning of a built-up area” (5.23.1 and 5.23.2), the maximum speed of vehicles should not exceed 60 km/h.

The maximum speed in the residential area and in the yard areas should not exceed 20 km/h.

However, the maximum permissible speed limit on such sections of the road can be greater than 60 and 20 km/h. This is possible if there is a special decision of the executive authorities in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation.

This is done to achieve the most efficient traffic on the roads, but taking into account traffic safety. And one more thing: the permitted speed should not exceed the value established for driving on the motorway.

When driving outside a built-up area, the following speed limits apply for specific types of vehicles.

Table: speed limit on the roads of Russia outside settlements

If the owner and owner of a motorway (sign 5.1) or a road for cars (sign 5.3) considers it necessary, then he has the right to increase the speed limit in such sections to 130 and 110 km / h (respectively).

The main requirement for such actions is to ensure the safety of movement at increased speed.

There are also speed limits when towing motor vehicles - no more than 50 km / h.

Therefore, every driver in such a mode of motion must ask himself the question: “Will I be able to withstand moving at such a low speed? Wouldn't it be better to call a tow truck and replace towing with transportation?

With regard to traffic in vehicles that carry dangerous, bulky or heavy goods, the choice of the maximum speed here depends on the agreed conditions of transport. At the same time, a special identification mark "Speed ​​Limit" must be placed on the rear surface of the body of such a vehicle.

Another condition that must be taken into account when choosing a speed is the maximum speed limits in accordance with the technical characteristics of the vehicle.

The specified speed is determined by the manufacturer and takes into account the design features of the vehicle (for example, the degree of effectiveness of the braking system).

Selecting the maximum speed for special driving conditions

In addition to the general speed limits, each driver must take into account a number of factors related to the conditions in which the movement is carried out when choosing a speed. The rules clearly indicate that the driver must take these factors into account.

1. Traffic intensity

The more intense the traffic, the closer the speed of each driver should be to the average speed of the flow.

Otherwise, the driver will be forced to constantly rebuild. And this will now be considered.

2. The condition of the vehicle, as well as the cargo

The technical condition of the vehicle, the characteristics of the cargo being transported and other conditions must be taken into account when choosing a speed.

It is hardly worth driving at breakneck speed if the car is obviously faulty or the load is not properly secured.

3. Road conditions

The condition of the roadway is an important factor in choosing the speed of movement.

In conditions of poor quality, slippery or polluted road surface, driving at the maximum permissible speed will be unsafe.

4. Meteorological (weather) conditions

Weather conditions should make serious adjustments to the choice of a safe speed limit.

Rain, fog, snowfall and other natural disasters make it difficult for the driver to see and force a sober-minded motorist to slow down.

5. Conditions of visibility

Limited visibility has one serious danger: if you do not slow down, the stopping distance of the vehicle will exceed the visibility distance.

In such conditions, the driver will detect the obstacle too late and will not have time to stop in time. That is why he is advised to slow down when driving in (near dangerous turns, at the end of climbs and on other similar sections of the road with poor visibility).

In any case, the Rules require the driver to choose the maximum speed in such a way that if there is a danger to traffic or any obstacle, he can stop without accident and avoid an accident.

The correct choice of the maximum speed is one of the conditions for precise control over the traffic situation and, therefore, accident-free driving.

Punishment for speeding and saving rule "+20"

If we talk about the legal side of the issue, then we cannot ignore the sanctions provided for by the Code of Administrative Offenses for violating the speed limit. And here, almost all drivers know about one rule. Let's call it "+20". What does it mean? And for this, we will consider the penalties for exceeding the speed of the vehicle, provided for in Article 12.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

Paragraph 2 of this article states that a driver is punished in the form of an administrative fine in the amount of 500 rubles for exceeding the speed limit by more than 20 km / h. In other words, if the speed limit in a built-up area is 60 km/h, the driver may not be afraid of penalties until he exceeds the speed to more than 80 km/h. This is the +20 rule. Such a handicap, amnesty!

A similar rule was introduced due to the measurement error of video recording cameras and traffic police radars, as well as the possible inconsistency of these measurements with the readings of the vehicle's speedometer.

Thus, driving at a speed exceeding 20 km/h (compared to the maximum allowable level), the driver violates the Rules, but cannot be subject to administrative penalties. The best way for the driver in this situation is to allow speeding by 10 km/h (maximum!). In this case, there will be no need to be afraid of sending "letters of happiness" with a requirement to pay an administrative fine for speeding.

We present to your attention a convenient table of fines for breaking the speed limit.

Minimum travel speed and braking

The rules limit not only the maximum, but also the minimum speed. We have already talked about the sign "Minimum speed limit" (4.6), which prohibits driving at a speed less than that indicated on the sign. However, the Rules also provide for cases in which the minimum allowable speed limit should be adhered to.

1. It is forbidden (sign 5.1) and on the road for cars (sign 5.3) with a speed of less than 40 km / h due to their technical condition or technical characteristics.

A driver who is not able to drive his vehicle at the prescribed speed is obliged to leave the specified sections of the road and use an alternative route.

2. It is forbidden to drive at an unreasonably low speed if this will interfere with other vehicles.

However, if the driver is alone on the road and does not interfere with anyone by his actions, then he can move even at the lowest speed.

Sudden (or emergency) braking very often leads to an accident, because few drivers move at a safe distance from the vehicle in front. In the current environment, unreasonable sudden braking has become one of the elements of dangerous driving. And it is allowed to use it only in order to avoid an accident (collision, collision with a pedestrian, etc.). In the conditions of Russian realities, sharp braking is used mainly in two cases:

• auto-substitution;
• desire to teach.

Sad practice!

Let's summarize

The choice of an adequate speed regime is a very important and responsible matter. It happens that a driver (especially an experienced one) is simply confused and in a particular situation cannot navigate the issue of choosing a speed.

There is a "golden rule" for traffic in the village - 50 km / h. No more! Such a speed will allow you to quickly navigate even in the most difficult traffic situation and will make it possible to avoid punishment for a possible speeding. Outside the settlement, it is enough to move 80-100 km / h. Naturally, if no speed limit is set.

The driver should remember that the perception of the situation, the effectiveness of his reaction, and traffic safety depend on the correct choice of speed.

Be careful. And remember: you are welcome at home! Alive!

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 of passenger cars, and the reaction to a gust of wind is fundamentally different.

Hello. The speed limit on the Ring Road is 110 km/h. The road services were negligent in their work of cleaning the road surface and indicated the speed of 70 km / h on electronic scoreboards. 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 repair, 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 this speed, and do not oblige.

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, in this case, the maximum speed is set by the display. 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. Images are not used in the text of the rules of the road. 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 retroreflective materials, with internal lighting, with external lighting. Image elements of black and gray colors of 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. At the same time, it is allowed to replace black inscriptions and symbols with white or yellow, and the white background of signs with 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. The rest of the vehicles with a higher 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 the 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 the 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.

A new sign is needed, 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 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 set 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 fine for repeating "me" 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?

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.

Evgeny, 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 fines (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!

One of the most common traffic violations, which is recorded daily on the roads of our country, is considered to be speeding. It is also often the main cause of road traffic accidents, often accompanied by serious material damage and loss of life. The visible consequences of such behavior of drivers who easily violate the speed limit are faced daily by all road users.

Despite the fact that the speed limit sign is installed not just like that, but only on potentially dangerous and difficult sections of roads, drivers are in no hurry to remove their foot from the gas pedal after crossing it. Moreover, many car owners have long forgotten that when driving in urban areas, the maximum speed is initially limited, and it is strictly forbidden to drive faster than 60 km / h. If road conditions require otherwise, then it can be further reduced by installing appropriate signs that indicate the specific permitted value for a particular section.

Features of installing a sign Speed ​​​​limit

Like any other, the Maximum speed limit sign is not set on the road just like that. As a rule, he says that a difficult turn awaits the driver ahead, a significant narrowing of the roadway, difficult visibility in relation to oncoming traffic, etc. In addition, the Speed ​​​​limit sign is often located near kindergartens, schools, and in this In this case, the speed dropped by the driver in time can save the life of a child who suddenly jumped onto the road in the wrong place.

Any difficulties on the part of the driver when interpreting this sign are simply unthinkable - the sign is extremely clear, and even people who do not have rights understand its meaning very well. On a white background, equipped with a red border, the value of the maximum permissible speed, which is allowed on this section of the road, is indicated. If the speed limit sign is located on a yellow background, this indicates its temporary purpose, but at the same time, if it contradicts the signs established on a permanent basis, it is necessary to be guided by the temporary indicator when moving further.

Installation of a road sign The speed limit on motorways located outside the city limits also has a number of features. Since the maximum permitted vehicle speed on such roads is from 70 to 90 km/h, it is unlikely that it will be possible to abruptly reset it, for example, to 40 km/h - this can create an emergency situation. Therefore, if it is necessary to comply with a stricter speed limit in certain sections, the restriction sign is not set immediately with the maximum value, but with its gradual decrease - 70-50-30, and with an interval of up to 150 meters. This gives drivers time to slow down gradually, avoiding hard braking.

How long does it take to comply with the speed limit

After crossing the established sign with the designated restriction, a number of car owners find it difficult to determine the area where this restriction can no longer be observed. Finding a place where you can increase the current speed of the car is not so difficult.

1. The most obvious sign that indicates the ability to press the gas pedal is the sign End of the zone of all restrictions. In cities, these are quite rare.
2. In the conditions of the city, you can often see the sign 3.25, which removes a certain previously indicated restriction. Immediately after crossing it, the speed can be increased to the "urban" value.
3. If a sign indicating the specific distance at which the restriction is in force is located under the indicator limiting the maximum speed, immediately after passing this segment, it can be increased. The distance is easy to determine from the odometer readings - the main thing is to fix its readings at the moment of crossing the speed limit sign. But do not rush to accelerate, because it is better to drive an extra hundred meters a little slower than to get a fine for exceeding.
4. The previous restriction is removed if there is another sign on the road with a different value of the permissible speed.
5. The action of the indicator, which limits the maximum permissible speed, automatically ends if there is an intersection in the path of the car. After crossing it, the maximum speed limit sign is not mandatory, and if the speed limit after crossing the roads still has its own characteristics, another sign must be installed.
6. The restriction is removed when leaving the city where such a sign was installed. However, this only works if there is a corresponding sign on the road, namely “End of settlement”. If it is absent, the restriction may extend its effect to several tens of kilometers, until the driver meets a sign with other requirements.

It is worth noting that at the entrance to a city or village, the zone of validity of the speed limit sign, which is located in front of it, does not lose its relevance, and the requirements for observing the speed limit remain valid.

Responsibility for exceeding

Since the speed limit road sign is never set just like that, but only in dangerous areas, or where the movement of vehicles at high speed can lead to human casualties, the punishment for ignoring its requirements is quite severe. This is due to the serious consequences of violating the speed limit, which can be encountered almost daily on our roads. Therefore, the punishment for such a violation is tangible - it is quite possible to receive not only an impressive fine, but also lose the right to drive a vehicle for a period of one year.

The final amount of the fine for this type of violation may vary, and depends on a number of points, for example:

• the specific location of the road where the offense was committed, as well as its category;
• type and characteristics of the vehicle violating the speed limit;
• type of tasks performed by the vehicle - transportation of hazardous substances, people, towing.

It is worth noting that despite the fact that the maximum speed is prescribed in the traffic rules, for various types of roads it can be increased by the regions independently. In this case, appropriate signs are installed. About such a measure in one of the regions is described in the video.

The speed limit sign is valid until the nearest intersection, unless there are other signs regulating the speed. At the same time, after the cancellation of the speed limit sign, we do not forget about the value of the maximum speeds in the city, village and on the highway.

The maximum speed limit sign is sign 3.24.

Quote from the traffic rules of the Russian Federation, Appendix 1:

Thus, the effect of sign 3.24 extends from the place where the sign was installed, forward in the direction of travel, to one of these places:

1) if there is an intersection - to the nearest intersection. True, if there is an intersection without priority signs with a field, forest or secondary road, then in such places the effect of the sign 3.24 does not stop. But note that the road must be either field, or forest, or secondary.

2) in a populated area in the absence of an intersection - up to road sign 5.24.1 or 5.24.2;

3) outside the settlement in the absence of an intersection - to the road sign 5.23.1 or 5.23.2.

And finally, if there is sign 3.25 “End of the maximum speed limit zone” on the road, or sign 3.31 “End of the zone of all restrictions”, or sign 3.24 with a different value of the maximum allowed speed - sign 3.24 will be valid until one of these three signs.

The maximum speed limit prohibition sign may be valid until the next speed limit cancellation road sign, or until the next prohibition sign with a different numerical speed indication, for example, it was 70, then 50 or 40. In the absence of all cancellation signs, the speed limit prohibition sign is valid until designated intersection, and in the settlement without marked intersections - to the end of the village.

The mandatory minimum speed limit sign (on a blue background) is also valid until the next cancellation sign "End of minimum speed limit zone". There is also a general sign “End of the zone of all restrictions”, it can also relate to the cancellation of the speed limit sign.

SDA: Prohibition road sign 3.24 Maximum speed limit in the Rules of the road

SDA P1 3.24, 3.25

Prohibition road sign 3.24 The maximum speed limit imposes a prohibition on driving at a speed in km/h exceeding that indicated on the sign.

Scope of the prohibition road sign 3.24 The maximum speed limit extends from the place where the sign is installed to the nearest intersection behind it, and in built-up areas, if there is no intersection, it extends to the end of the built-up area. The action of the sign is not interrupted at the places of exit from the territories adjacent to the road and at the places of intersection or junction with field, forest and other secondary roads, in front of which the corresponding signs are not installed.

The effect of the prohibition road sign 3.24 The maximum speed limit set in front of the settlement, indicated by the road sign 5.23.1 or 5.23.2, extends to this sign.

Road signs 5.23.1 and 5.23.2 The beginning of the settlement from Appendix 1 to the SDA to which the speed limit sign is valid

For prohibition road sign 3.24 the zone of action of the sign can be reduced by installing at the end of the zone of its action a road sign 3.25 End of the maximum speed limit zone or by using plate 8.2.1.

The coverage area of ​​road sign 3.24 can be reduced by placing a prohibition road sign 3.24 Maximum speed limit with a different maximum speed.

If the speed limit sign is located on a yellow background, this indicates its temporary purpose, but at the same time, if it contradicts the signs established on a permanent basis, it is necessary to be guided by the temporary indicator when moving further.

How long does it take to comply with the speed limit

After crossing the established sign with the designated restriction, a number of car owners find it difficult to determine the area where this restriction can no longer be observed. Finding a place where you can increase the current speed of the car is not so difficult.

1. The most obvious sign that indicates the ability to press the gas pedal is the sign End of the zone of all restrictions. In cities, these are quite rare.
2. In the conditions of the city, you can often see the sign 3.25, which removes a certain previously indicated restriction. Immediately after crossing it, the speed can be increased to the "urban" value.
3. If a sign indicating the specific distance at which the restriction is in force is located under the indicator limiting the maximum speed, immediately after passing this segment, it can be increased. The distance is easy to determine from the odometer readings - the main thing is to fix its readings at the moment of crossing the speed limit sign. But do not rush to accelerate, because it is better to drive an extra hundred meters a little slower than to get a fine for exceeding.
4. The previous restriction is removed if there is another sign on the road with a different value of the permissible speed.
5. The action of the indicator, which limits the maximum permissible speed, automatically ends if there is an intersection in the path of the car. After crossing it, the maximum speed limit sign is not mandatory, and if the speed limit after crossing the roads still has its own characteristics, another sign must be installed.
6. The restriction is removed when leaving the city where such a sign was installed. However, this only works if there is a corresponding sign on the road, namely “End of settlement”. If it is absent, the restriction may extend its effect to several tens of kilometers, until the driver meets a sign with other requirements.

It is worth noting that at the entrance to a city or village, the zone of validity of the speed limit sign, which is located in front of it, does not lose its relevance, and the requirements for observing the speed limit remain valid.

Responsibility for exceeding

Since the speed limit road sign is never set just like that, but only in dangerous areas, or where the movement of vehicles at high speed can lead to human casualties, the punishment for ignoring its requirements is quite severe. This is due to the serious consequences of violating the speed limit, which can be encountered almost daily on our roads. Therefore, the punishment for such a violation is tangible - it is quite possible to receive not only an impressive fine, but also lose the right to drive a vehicle for a period of one year.

The final amount of the fine for this type of violation may vary, and depends on a number of points, for example:

• the specific location of the road where the offense was committed, as well as its category;
• type and characteristics of the vehicle violating the speed limit;
• type of tasks performed by the vehicle - transportation of hazardous substances, people, towing.

It is worth noting that despite the fact that the maximum speed is prescribed in the traffic rules, for various types of roads it can be increased by the regions independently. In this case, appropriate signs are installed. About such a measure in one of the regions is described in the video:

Questions of traffic rules by sign Maximum speed limit

Which of the following signs apply only to the period of time when the road surface is wet?

Only a combination of signs "A" - 3.24 "Maximum speed limit" with a sign 8.16 "Wet surface", indicating that the sign applies to the period when the road surface is wet - is the correct answer. Sign "B" - 1.18 "Emission of gravel" - warns of a section of the road where gravel, crushed stone and the like can be ejected from under the wheels of vehicles. Sign "B" - 1.15 "Slippery road" - warns of a road section with increased slipperiness of the roadway. The reason for this may be snowfall, icing, spillage of bitumen during road works, etc. ("Road Signs").

This road sign:

• Recommends driving at a speed of 40 km/h
• Requires driving at a speed of at least 40 km/h
• Prohibits driving at speeds over 40 km/h

Sign 3.24 "Maximum speed limit" is a common sign on our roads. ("Road signs"). It is forbidden to drive at a speed (km/h) exceeding that indicated on the sign. For exceeding the speed limit over +20 km / h, a punishment follows - a fine; over +60 km/h - a fine or deprivation of rights.
Action area:
1 - From the installation site to the nearest intersection, and in the settlement in the absence of an intersection - to the end of the n.p.
2- The coverage area may be limited by plate 8.2.1
"Zone of action".
3 - Up to the same sign with a different speed value.
4 - Before the sign 5.23.1 or 5.23.2 "Beginning of the settlement" with a white background.
5 - Up to sign 3.25 "End of speed limit zone".
6 - Up to sign 3.31 "End of the zone of all restrictions." ("Road signs").

The requirements of which signs come into force directly in the place where they are installed?

The action of the prohibition sign 3.24 "Maximum speed limit" extends from the installation site to the nearest intersection, and in the absence of an intersection - to the end of the settlement ("B"). The coverage area may be limited, for example, by the plate 8.2.1 “Action area” (“A”). The sign is valid 100m from its place of installation. Plate 8.1.1 under the sign ("B") "Distance to the object" indicates the distance from the sign to the place where it begins to operate. ("Road signs").

Which signs apply only to the nearest intersection in the direction of travel?

The effect of the signs: B - 3.24 "Maximum speed limit" and D - 3.28 "Parking is prohibited" extends to the nearest intersection behind it, and in built-up areas in the absence of an intersection - to the end of the built-up area. The effect of the signs: A - 5.31 "Zone with a maximum speed limit" and B - "Zone with a restriction on parking" is canceled by signs corresponding only to them 5.32 "End of a zone with a maximum speed limit" and 5.28 "End of a zone with a restriction on parking" ("Road signs ").

3.24 Maximum speed limit

It is forbidden to drive at a speed (km/h) exceeding that indicated on the sign. The coverage area of ​​signs extends from the place where the sign is installed to the nearest intersection behind it, and in populated areas, if there is no intersection, to the end of the populated area. The action of the signs is not interrupted at the places of exit from the territories adjacent to the road and at the places of intersection (adjacency) with field, forest and other secondary roads, in front of which the corresponding signs are not installed. The effect of the sign 3.24, installed in front of the settlement, indicated by the sign 5.23.1 or 5.23.2, extends to this sign. The zone of action of signs can be reduced by placing sign 3.25 (End of the maximum speed limit zone) at the end of their zone of action or by using plate 8.2.1. Sign 3.24 coverage area can be reduced by placing sign 3.24 with a different maximum speed

Scheme of one of the routes

Olga (Vladivostok)

In 80% of cases, serious accidents occur when driving at high speeds. To prevent emergencies, special road signs have been created that dictate to slow down. It is important to understand that the area of ​​effect of the Speed ​​Limit sign always ends.

Road elements canceling the rule

The speed limit may not apply to the entire road. There are rules according to which the driver can return to the previous driving pattern.

Below is a look at which signs cancel the speed limit:

1. If, together with the road element, there is an additional numerical designation, this indicates the distance after which the rule loses its relevance. So, with a limit of 40 and the number on the plate 250, it says that the next 250 meters must be observed on the speed sensor number 40.
2. In the absence of a plate with an additional designation, another road sign may be encountered along the way, which symbolizes the end of the previous restriction. After it, drivers are allowed to increase speed on the next leg of the journey. This element is denoted as follows: an underlined line on a white background with a red border.
3. Another sign that cancels the rule is the “End of all restrictions” (crossing line on a white background). Such a designation cancels even the distance that is assigned in the plate.

The action of the speed limiter in different situations

The speed limit is valid until a certain point.

Below are the situations when the zone of the road to which the rule applies ends:

• Until the next sign. Sometimes, at a certain distance from the speed limiter, a sign with a different restriction is installed. In this case, the first of them ceases to operate. In other situations, the new designation allows you to drive at a higher speed than the previous one. And even in this case, the first restriction is removed.
• To the first intersection or settlement. If there are no signs under the sign and other signs that lift the prohibition are encountered along the way, the speed limiter's area of ​​effect extends to the nearest intersection or a sign symbolizing the beginning or end of the settlement.

When considering the situation with an intersection, it should be borne in mind that the rule is not canceled for a roundabout.

IMPORTANT! Not all intersections can affect the end of the speed limiter. These do not include ramps and junctions to dirt roads without additional designations. As well as trips from such territories.

If we take into account the beginning or end of the settlement, the features of movement are as follows:

• The maximum allowed speed in the residential area is 20 kilometers per hour.
• Moving to a residential area rarely starts from the road. And it happens that you find yourself on a different road, where new rules apply.

Time limit

This designation is placed on repaired sections of roads. A similar sign outwardly differs from others in this category in that it is located on a yellow background and acts in the same way as a standard one.

The end of the action of a road section with a similar designation is also no different. Often the rules of this category of road elements are canceled with the designation “The end of all prohibitions”.

On the way where the time limit is met, the driver is required to reduce the speed as much as possible. Therefore, on the road, you can first meet a number of limiters along the way, which allow the driver to gradually slow down.

The area of ​​validity of a temporary sign may also, as in other cases, end with an intersection, the beginning or end of a settlement, and a designation of the end of restrictions. Also, this element of road regulation may contain a plate under it.

IMPORTANT! When it comes to a temporary sign, it is almost impossible to set up a fixation for it from a video camera. On these sections of roads, only a traffic police officer can catch you for violating the rules.

In what cases the effect of the sign is not canceled:

• Pedestrian markings available.
• Road turn without crossing with other roads.
• The presence of complex road routes (tunnel, bridge, etc.).
• There is a “Main Road” sign in front of the intersection.
• A traffic light has been installed on the site to allow pedestrians to pass.

Penalties for disregarding a speed limit sign

The amount of the fine for high-speed driving in unauthorized places is set depending on the number of mileage units exceeding the speed limit, as well as the repeated nature of violations. So, the fine for such a disregard for the rules can be quite high.

In general, when exceeding the speed limit:

• over 40 kilometers per hour - the driver faces an administrative penalty of 500 rubles;
• up to 60 kilometers per hour - you will have to pay 1-1.5 thousand rubles;
• up to 80 kilometers per hour will cost 2-2.5 thousand rubles, and in some cases with deprivation of rights up to six months.

For repeated violations of the restriction:

• 40-60 kilometers per hour - up to 2.5 thousand rubles are charged;
• up to 80 kilometers per hour - a fine of 5 thousand rubles is imposed (if the offense is recorded by a camera) and deprivation of a driver's license for 12 months (if the offender is caught by a traffic police officer).

Accidents that occur when the speed limiter is neglected often end in death for many. Therefore, it is vital for every driver to follow the speed limit signs.

Remember that when you get behind the wheel, you become responsible for yourself, your passengers and other road users. Try to follow the signs, do not exceed the speed limit and then your path will be the safest.
