world where cars are almost equal to the number of population of the planet, needs a system of measures which limit and create a strict control on the roads.One of such measures to control the movement of the steel dividing strips on roads, traffic lights and semaphores, traffic signs, barriers.Of course, do not forget about the traffic rules - mainly the code of laws and rules of movement.
Traffic signs and their meanings
biggest attention was paid traffic signs because of their great diversity, as well as many nuances that are associated with them.Out on the street, on the first road you can undoubtedly find a road sign "brick", "ring", "triangle".Vulgar description, of course, will have no idea what to do with the form of a sign: because it informs about something or, on the contrary, prohibits any action.
below will be considered banning traffic sign "brick" (named for the characteristic form), as it is one of the most controversial.
Types of road signs
To begin, consider the concept of "road sign."This, above all, means having its own standard and be placed at the road to ensure the safety of traffic by transmitting information to the participants with the help of graphic drawings.
Modern SDA distinguish 8 categories that best combine different signs:
- warning (the most useful signs, enabling the driver to find out in advance about the alleged danger, whether it be a sharp turn or slippery road);
- signs priority (it needed to regulate the order of roundabouts at intersections and carriageways);
- ban (based on the name - prohibit the driver to perform any action, for example, "No Entry" (in common the name sounds like a "brick"), weight limit sign, and so on. D.);
- prescribing (eg, the sign "bicycle path");
- Special regulation signs ("Crosswalk" as the most famous);
- information;
- service marks ("Gas Station", "hospital", "Power Point", and so on. D.);
- marks additional information.
Prohibitory signs
One of the most necessary traffic signs installed on the roadside, are prohibited.They are intended to provide traffic safety by limiting or, conversely, removing the restrictions.There are more than 30 prohibiting traffic signs.The main include:
- road sign "No Entry";
- prohibiting signs "Pedestrian / motor vehicles / motorcycles / tractor / truck / animal-drawn vehicles / cycling prohibited";
- signs "Turn left / right turn / turn / overtaking is forbidden";
- «Maximum speed limit";
- signs "End of maximum speed limit / ban on overtaking by trucks / prohibition of overtaking / all restrictions";
- «Stopping" and "No parking" and so on. D.
should be noted that for these road signs exist clarify when they are closer to each other, as well as specific situations that their action does not apply.
What does the road sign "brick" and what it looks like?
not necessary to call the old sages and great minds to determine what prohibitory sign.For example, "No Entry" - a road sign, depicted in the form of a horizontal rectangle in the middle red circle, which prohibits both the entry and passage of motor transport on the stretch of road in a certain direction.Exceptions may also be vehicles that move on this road section on a specified route and have the appropriate supporting documents.
again should focus on the fact that the mark is often installed at the one-way road, in order to avoid possible traffic accident.It prohibits the movement in one direction only, so do not be surprised oncoming vehicles, it moves quite legitimate.
«brick" - a sign under which it is impossible to pass, otherwise it is fraught with sanctions from the traffic police
When considering violations committed as a result of travel under the sign of "brick", should first start from the definition of the action that has been committed.If we consider only the violation of a road sign, in accordance with the laws of the driver will be liable to a fine in the amount of 300 rubles, or get off a warning by the traffic police.In other words, if we consider only the passage under the sign of "brick", the penalty will not be a significant financial problem for the driver.
However, if non-compliance with the requirements of the road sign "No entry" vehicle driver also violated other provisions of the SDA, after ignoring the above symbol, the value increases by an order of responsibility.And the severity of the offense will be considered in conjunction with such violation as travel under the sign of "brick".
penalty for passing under a road sign in conjunction with other disorders
As noted above, if the non-compliance with the requirements of the sign "brick" the driver of motor transport at the same time committed violations set by other characters, the amount of punishment becomes conjugate with the latest.
So, for example, at the same time violating traffic rules prohibiting move in the opposite direction on a road on which two-way traffic was not provided, the driver will face the possibility of disqualification for a period of 4-6 months or penalty of a fine ofup to 5 thousand rubles.For repeated violation - deprivation of rights for a whole year.And this can only happen because of the fact that you ignore the "brick" - a sign forbidding entry.
Another option could be a sign of underlying "turn left or U-turn."The penalty in this situation also is not the most forgiving, to be more precise, it will cost the driver in the amount of 1-1.5 thousand rubles.
Exceptions to the road sign "No Entry»
sign "brick", which exceptions can be counted on one hand, yet has those.First, let's consider the cases for which the mark is no exception, in order to avoid possible misunderstandings."No Entry" can not ignore those drivers who have an urgent desire or need for anything, "picked up the belly", "iron was powershift", "it is an important match."Previous "sword" of the law all are equal, the exclusive right to have access to emergency services only on condition that the siren and other aspects.Also, they do not have the opportunity to consider an exception to its travel under the sign forbidding those drivers whose car park or residence are associated with the need to sign the above-mentioned violations.For these actions will be punished by the driver, as they say, to the fullest extent of the law.
«brick" - a sign under which you can pass only if the movement is carried out only on a specified route and with the relevant documents.Only then the driver has the right to pass under this symbol and stay without penalty and right.
Position sign "No Entry»
By the choice of location of the prohibitory sign, like any other, regardless of the category and type, must be approached with great responsibility.This is due to the need to take into account both the intensity and the possible, permissible speed of vehicles on a given site.
mandatory criteria, without which the road sign will be considered invalid, it is the distance of visibility.By the standards prohibiting sign "Entry forbidden" to be in line of sight at a distance of 100 meters.If this condition is not met, then the driver has the right to consider themselves not guilty when passing underneath.
Coverage prohibiting sign "brick»
Coverage "brick", like most of prohibition signs are usually limited to the distance from it to the nearest intersection, or until the end of the borders of the village, in the absence of such an intersection.If the sign is necessary to increase the length of its validity, the only option is to repeat it with each crossroads.Similarly, if necessary, reduce the range of the road sign can be limited by other signs that lift previous restrictions, or by placing the corresponding plate directly under the symbol indicating the exact distance.
Summarizing, we can conclude that, knowing the law and using them efficiently and correctly, the driver can avoid potential problems, and not be subject to fraud for those manipulating loopholes in the law.
