Prohibitory signs. What does the prohibitory road sign "Height restriction" Sign "height restriction" 5 0

Currently, there is a height restriction on the roads in the country. According to GOST, when using road devices, in particular, those of a cargo nature, dimensions must be taken into account, through which safe movement on motorways is carried out. The geometry in the traffic rules is formulated in accordance with the agreements concluded by Russia, which are of an international nature. In addition to our country, it includes the states that are members of the CIS. Width and other height restrictions are indicated in the specified act. Clause has the wording 6.3. Mathematics indicates that the EAC has a height limit of four meters. In China, the vehicle limit would be 4.3 meters.

The height restriction sign has a prohibitive character. There are separate provisions in the legislation regarding it. In particular, the legislator reflects the rules according to which the installation of the said sign is carried out. This is done in order to ensure safety for the inhabitants of the country.

Places of such an installation are:

sections of the route where gas pipelines are located;
location of the overpass;
bridges.

This also includes other structures that provide that cars pass under them. The height limitation sign is also placed in those areas where the tunnels are located. Any route should be built taking into account what is shown on the map. According to the rules, the use of these structures is allowed in the case when the car has a lower height than that provided for by the building.

Travel to the metro is not affected by these provisions. In some situations, the gate also has an indication of the sign in question. Carrying goods by transport is also required in accordance with the established regulations. The height sign indicates the presence of the maximum size that the car can have. Vehicle drivers must take these provisions into account. The height will be named in meters. In this case, the motorist takes into account not only the car itself, but also the cargo that is transported by him.

The general level - those who on their way do not comply with the established rules regarding the height of the car and cargo - will not be able to negatively affect. In this situation, penalties are applied to violators. These provisions are enshrined in legislation. In addition, it should be borne in mind that the production of these actions when driving indicates a violation of the structure, under which the car is passing. Also, the health of pedestrians and other motorists is caused.

The main violation may be that the fence collapses and falls on a person, as well as damage is caused to devices that supply light, systems through which video surveillance and other important objects are made. In fact, the person driving the vehicle at the moment is violating the rules enshrined in the legislation. These provisions apply to all motorists moving around the country.

If there is a traffic violation, the driver will not be able to avoid the punishment. Moving around objects where signs with restrictions are installed - he violates the rules regarding moving along them. Installation is carried out in accordance with the specified provisions of the law. You won't be able to buy protection from punishment. Measures of responsibility are assigned, which are of an administrative nature. In addition, those provisions reflected in the civil law can also be applied. An important line - the consequences of the violation must be taken into account.

The sign regarding the height limitation has the form of a prohibition, it is installed on the ground. It should be noted that the installation work on the installation of this sign is carried out before the coverage area of the sign in question begins. The placement of the height vector, as an example, can be fixed as 3.5 meters. It depends on what the maximum size is provided by the design as possible. Height should be taken into account, affecting the distance from a pedestrian crossing or other section on the floor of the road to the edge of the structure. The bottom edge is taken into account. The location of the sea does not matter in this case.

According to the fixed GOST, a small spare distance is established with respect to the value in question. The photo of the characters in this situation does not apply to the legislative provisions. However, lawmakers reflect that for structures such as overpasses and bridges, the height will be about twenty cm less, while for various kinds of overpasses, this distance becomes less than about 40 cm.The specified centimeters are subtracted from the height that is allowed by law. Provisions are envisaged according to which, at a given distance, evacuation or fire routes can be laid in the future.

The designation of the indicated sign applies only to freight transport.

In particular, it is indicated:

The sign to some extent repeats the legislative provisions. They affect the vertical layout rules.
Such markings are applied to structures that have a lateral or upper character.

In order for the sign to be noticeable in the dark, its drawing will be depicted using paint with reflection properties. Evacuation, even from a familiar object, is carried out according to detour signs. In garages, in some situations, a height limitation is also provided. Flying in aircraft can also touch the de-grease positions, which indicates that it is not possible to lower the aircraft to a certain level.

The construction of the buildings under consideration is being carried out at the level prescribed by the law. If the sign is applied to a yellow background, this indicates that it is temporary. When there are discrepancies between permanent and temporary signs, you need to follow the information reflected on the latter.

A responsibility

Privately, you can download traffic rules and periodically repeat this, especially for novice drivers. The legislator stipulates that such provisions must be taken into account by all motorists. The consequences of non-compliance with the prescribed rules are various factors. In particular, when a person decides, contrary to physics, to drive under the buildings in front of which the act in question is installed, the consequence will be a catastrophe. The thorns can snag on the structure.

When a truck tries to drive under these buildings, its structure is violated. The damage is mechanical. At the same time, these provisions apply to both transport and engineering buildings. In this case, the driver endangers his own health and life, and also threatens others with his actions. At the same time, those who are not guilty of anything suffer.

There are situations when a motorist drives through a building at his own risk and does not cause damage to a car or structure - in fact, there is a violation of administrative rules.

In this case, the following may be applied to the offender:

penalties;
they are expressed in the amount of 500 rubles.

It is recommended to show considerable attention in these situations. This applies to the entire time the vehicle is being driven. In this case, this allows you not to lose sight of all the warnings that are located along the route. If a motorist pays attention to all the signs, this helps him to reach his destination as quickly as possible. Such provisions are associated with the absence of the need to return to a certain point on the route in order to take a detour. Bypass signs are installed next to the indicated ones. In case of damage to the goods, the offender will bear material and other responsibility. The sign of a restriction on a certain height is of importance among traffic rules.

The sign is used to prohibit the movement of vehicles, the overall height of which (with or without cargo) is greater than that indicated on the sign. The sign is installed in cases where the distance from the surface of the road surface to the bottom of the superstructure of an artificial structure, utilities, etc. less than 5 m.

The height indicated on the sign should be less than the actual one by 0.2-0.4 m for engineering communications, by 0.3 and 0.4 m - for overpasses, along which the automobile and railways pass, respectively. The difference between the actual and indicated heights may be increased depending on the evenness of the road surface. A repeated sign 3.13 is allowed to be installed on the span of an artificial structure, and if there is a clearance gate in front of it, on the gate.

Signs are made of galvanized metal with a thickness of 0.8-1 mm, with double flanging, which gives additional rigidity to the sign body. Each sign has two "tongue" attachment points. The fastening elements are attached to the body by the bulging method, which does not distort the image of the sign and provides much higher reliability than spot welding or riveting.

Resolution of the Seventeenth Arbitration Court of Appeal of 11.02.2008 n 17AP-255/2008-GK in case n A71-234 / 2007 The absence of road signs indicating height restrictions on the plaintiff's inner territory is not a reason to reduce the amount of damage caused to the plaintiff by the defendant's driver. This conclusion is based on the fact that the driver is obliged to find out whether the height of his cargo allows to pass under the overpass.

The defendant, LLC "S", disagrees with the court decision of 26.11.2007 (operative part of 20.11.2007) on the grounds set out in the appeal, asks to cancel the decision, to refuse to satisfy the claim. Believes that the court did not correctly apply the norms of substantive law, Article 1083 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation was not applied. The complainant holds that the traffic accident on 06.06.2006 occurred as a result of gross negligence of the plaintiff due to the absence of a warning sign "Height restriction" on the overpass and the pipeline.
The complaint was considered in the absence of persons participating in the case, in accordance with Article 156 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.
The legality and validity of the contested decision was verified by the arbitration court of the appellate instance in the manner prescribed by Articles 266, 268 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.
As follows from the materials of the case, 06.06.2006, on the street. Mayakovsky, 18 in the city of Izhevsk on the territory of PO "O" there was a road traffic accident, as a result of which the car KAMAZ 54112, state. number С986KA / 18, owned by LLC "S" on the right of ownership, under the control of an employee of LLC "S" P., hit the overpass, heating main.
As a result of the accident, the overpass received mechanical damage, and the owner (PO "O") suffered material damage, consisting of the cost of repair and construction work on the heating main and the steel overpass and the cost of assessing the damaged property.
The ownership of the territory of the base on which the road accident occurred, as well as the damaged heating main of PO "O", is confirmed by the documents available in the case file (certificate of the Union of Consumer Societies of the Udmurt Republic dated 22.02.2007 (v. 1, p. 75) , the act of establishing (restoring, determining the location of the established) boundaries of the land plot dated 09/27/2002 (vol. 1, case sheet 100), by the Resolution of the Izhevsk administration "On the provision of the consumer society" Wholesaler "in lease of land plots for operation and maintenance of a warehouse at Mayakovskogo street, 18 in Leninsky district "dated 02.12.2004, N 531/7 (t. 1, p. 104), agreement on amendments to the land lease agreement dated 04.29.2005. N 261/3 (vol. 1, l.d. 105).
The cost of repair and construction work to restore the heating main and steel overpass in the amount of 315,246 rubles. determined on the basis of the report of the limited liability company "E" N 49n-06/2006 (v. 1, case sheet 18-37), the cost of the assessment amounted to 2,400 rubles. Thus, the amount of damage caused by PO "O" as a result of a road traffic accident amounted to 317,646 rubles. 00 kopecks (RUB 315,246 + RUB 2,400). The plaintiff's real costs for the restoration of the damaged property amounted to RUB 326,103. 62 kopecks, which is confirmed by a certificate of the cost of work performed and costs for February 2007, invoice N 00000014 dated February 28, 2007 and payment documents (payment orders N 1001 dated March 20, 2007, N 1002 dated March 20, 2007. 2007, promissory note N 10 in the amount of 176 103 rubles 32 kopecks - v. 1, l.d. 130-134).
By letter of 03.07.2006 N 4, the closed joint-stock company "M" informed PO "O" about the refusal to pay insurance compensation due to the fact that the road traffic accident occurred in the plaintiff's inner territory and therefore does not apply to insurance cases of civil liability of the owners vehicles (v. 1, l.d. 14).
The appeal of the plaintiff to the defendant for voluntary compensation for the damage caused was left by LLC "S" without satisfaction (vol. 1, p. 14).
These circumstances served as the basis for the appeal of PA "O" to the Arbitration Court of the Udmurt Republic with this claim. In support of the stated claims, the plaintiff refers to Articles 1064, 1079 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.
The defendant, objecting to the satisfaction of the claim, indicated that the plaintiff had not proven the ownership of the heating main and the steel overpass, there was no illegality of the behavior of the tortfeasor as a necessary condition for the application of Article 1079 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation; in the territory where the road traffic accident occurred, no measures were taken to organize traffic (the absence of the sign "Height restriction" on the steel overpass and the pipeline) in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Law of 10.12.95, N 196-ФЗ "On road safety movement "(vol. 1, l.d. 50-51).
In the opinion of the court of appeal, the court of first instance came to a legitimate conclusion about the validity of the claims of PA "O".
According to paragraph 1 of Article 1064 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, harm caused to the person or property of a citizen, as well as damage caused to the property of a legal entity, is subject to compensation in full by the person who caused the harm.
In accordance with paragraph 1 of Article 1079 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, a legal entity and citizens whose activities are associated with increased danger to others (the use of vehicles, mechanisms, high voltage electrical energy, atomic energy, explosives, strong poisons, etc., implementation of construction and other related activities, etc.) are obliged to compensate for the harm caused by a source of increased danger, unless they prove that the harm arose as a result of the indeterminate force or intent of the victim.
The owner of a source of increased danger may be exempted by the court from liability in whole or in part also on the grounds provided for in paragraphs 2 and 3 of Article 1083 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.
Legal entities and citizens shall compensate for the harm caused by their employee in the performance of labor (official, official) duties (paragraph 1 of Article 1068 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).
According to article 1082 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, one of the methods of compensation for harm is compensation for losses.
By virtue of Article 15 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, a person whose right has been violated can demand full compensation for losses caused to him, while losses are understood as expenses that the person whose right has been violated has made or will have to make to restore the violated right, loss or damage to it property (real damage), as well as lost income that this person would have received under the normal conditions of civil turnover, if his right had not been violated (loss of profit).
The materials of the case confirm the infliction of damage to the plaintiff related to the road traffic accident (explanations of P. dated 06.06.2006 (vol. 1, ld 54, vol. 2, ld 12-14), explanations of Sh. from 06.06.2006 (v. 2, l.d. 15), the decision to terminate proceedings in the case of an administrative offense dated 07.06.2006 (v. 2, l.d. 4).
The actual cause of harm is an employee of LLC "S" P. The actions of the driver are in causal connection with the harmful consequences that have occurred. In confirmation of the ownership of the vehicle by LLC "S", a copy of the technical passport dated 16.11.2005 N 18 ОМ 452910 was presented in the case materials (v. 2, case sheet 16).

The arguments of the defendant that the plaintiff, in violation of Article 21 of the Federal Law of 10.12.95, N 199-FZ "On Road Safety", paragraph 2.14.12 of GOST 23457-86, approved by the Resolution of the State Standard of the USSR of 24.06.86 N 1685, did not designate the overpass and heating main with a warning sign "Height limitation", rightfully rejected by the court of first instance.
In accordance with paragraph 2 of Article 1083 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, if the gross negligence of the victim himself contributed to the emergence or increase of harm, depending on the degree of guilt of the victim and the tortfeasor, the amount of compensation should be reduced.
The fact that there is no sign "Height restriction" on the damaged heating main does not in itself indicate the fault of the injured party.
According to paragraph 2.14.12 of GOST 23457-86, approved by the Decree of the USSR State Standard of 06.24.86 N 1685, the "Height Restriction" sign should be used to prohibit the movement of vehicles, the overall height of which (with or without cargo) is greater than that indicated on the sign , if the distance from the surface of the road surface to the bottom of the superstructure of an artificial structure, power line, etc. less than 5 meters. A similar provision is enshrined in clause 5.4.10 of the current GOST R 52289-2004, approved by the Order of Rostekhregulirovanie dated December 15, 2004 N 120-ST.
The defendant, referring to the plaintiff's failure to comply with the specified requirements of GOST, believes that in the presence of the sign "Height limitation", damage to the heating main could have been avoided. The plaintiff's failure to take measures to equip the heating main with the "Height Limit" sign testifies, according to the defendant, to the plaintiff's (victim's) gross negligence, which contributed to causing damage to his property (paragraph 2 of Article 1083 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).
The indicated arguments of the defendant are unfounded, since the absence of the sign "Height restriction" on the heating main belonging to the plaintiff is not causally connected with the damage to the heating main, admitted by the employee of the defendant.
In accordance with paragraph 23.5 of the Road Traffic Regulations, approved by the Government Decree of October 23, 1993 N 1090 (hereinafter referred to as the Road Traffic Regulations), the transportation of heavy and dangerous goods, the movement of a vehicle, the overall parameters of which, with or without cargo, exceed the width of 2 , 55 m (2.6 m - for refrigerators and insulated bodies), at a height of 4 m from the surface of the carriageway, along a length (including one trailer) 20 m, are carried out in accordance with special rules.
In accordance with the Instruction for the carriage of bulky goods and heavy goods by road on the roads of the Russian Federation, approved by the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation dated 05/27/96 (hereinafter referred to as the Instruction), the transportation of bulky goods must be carried out with a mandatory control measurement of the height under overpasses and other artificial structures and communications on the route of transportation (clause 5.11 of the Instruction).
It can be seen from the documents presented that, in violation of the above provisions of the Instruction, the necessary approvals and permits were not obtained, the driver (P.) did not make control measurements of the height, but was guided by the advice of the loader (P.'s explanations of 06.06.2006, explanation of Sh. From 06.06.2006).
Referring to the absence of fault of the causer of harm in the occurrence of losses, the defendant points out that the actions of P. did not establish the corpus delicti (resolution to terminate proceedings in the case of an administrative offense of 07.06.2006 (vol. 2, case file 4) , the decision of the Industrial District Court of Izhevsk of 13.04.2007 N 12-149-07 (t. 1, l.d. 144), the decision of the Supreme Court of the Udmurt Republic N 7-89 (t. 2, l.d. 145).
At the same time, when considering an administrative offense case on the fact of a road traffic accident, only the absence in the actions of P. of the offense entailing liability under paragraph 10.1 of the Road Traffic Rules, that is, exceeding the established speed limit without taking into account the characteristics and condition of the vehicle and cargo , road and meteorological conditions. However, the damage was caused by other reasons, namely the fact that the driver did not take measures to find out whether the height of his cargo allows to pass under the heating main and the overpass, therefore, under such circumstances, it does not matter if P.
The listed circumstances testify to the fault of the defendant and do not prove the gross negligence of the victim himself, which excludes the possibility of releasing the defendant from liability.
The defendant did not present evidence to refute the fact of infliction of damage, established by the documents listed above. Therefore, the court of first instance reasonably considered proven the commission of the unlawful act by the employee of the defendant, guilty of committing it, as a result of which the plaintiff incurred expenses to restore the damaged heating main and overpass (Article 65 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation).
The arguments of the defendant that there is a road in the territory where the road accident occurred, since this strip of land is adapted and used by PO "O" for the movement of vehicles, which is confirmed by the Regulation on the access control regime of the enterprise PO "O", rejected by the court of appeal on the following grounds.
In accordance with Article 21 of the Federal Law of 10.12.95 N 196-FZ "On Road Traffic Safety" measures to organize traffic in order to increase its safety and road capacity are carried out by federal executive bodies, executive bodies of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and local government bodies, legal entities and individuals in charge of motor roads.
The concept of "roads" is given in paragraph 1.2 of the Road Traffic Regulations and is defined as a strip of land equipped or adapted and used for the movement of vehicles or the surface of an artificial structure.
The territory where the road accident occurred was provided by PO "O" for the operation and maintenance of the warehouse base and, in accordance with the Traffic Rules, is the "adjacent territory", that is, the territory immediately adjacent to the road and not intended for through traffic of vehicles (courtyards, residential areas, parking lots, gas stations, enterprises, etc.). The fact that the territory of the base, in fact, is a technological site, and not a road, is confirmed by the fact that on the available cartographic and schematic materials of the territory provided by PO "O" funds, not indicated (Resolution of the administration of Izhevsk on the provision of a land plot dated 02.12.2004 N 531/7 (vol. 1, p. 104, 109), a plan of the land plot (vol. 1, p. 101-103), map (plan) of the land plot provided for lease (annex to agreement N 261/3 (vol. 1, case sheet 108), scheme of the incident (vol. 2, case sheet 7, 8) ...
In addition, the damage to the heating main that occurred on the territory of the base by the insurance company was not regarded as an insured event, since it took place not on the road, but on the internal territory of the organization.
The court of first instance assessed this circumstance, rightly referring to subparagraph "and" of paragraph 2 of Article 6 of the Federal Law of 25.04.2002 N 40-FZ "On compulsory insurance of civil liability of vehicle owners" and subparagraph "k" of paragraph 9 of the Rules of Compulsory Insurance civil liability of owners of vehicles approved by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 07.05.2003 N 263.
In addition, the Regulations on the access control regime of the PO "O" enterprise, approved by the chairman of the PO "O" Council on 01.09.99, presented in the case materials by the defendant, provides that in the event of damage during loading, unloading of goods, as well as on the territory of the enterprise, the owner of a vehicle who has caused harm to the owner of the enterprise, or to third parties, is liable for the damage caused in the manner prescribed by law (clause 7 of the Regulation). This provision was known to the employees of the defendant, which is also located on the territory of the PO "O" at the address: Izhevsk, st. Mayakovsky, 18.
According to the plaintiff, the amount of losses incurred for the restoration of the damaged heating main, in accordance with the report of the limited liability company "E" N 49n-06/2006, is 315,246 rubles. (vol. 1, l.d. 18-36). The appraisal was carried out by the limited liability company "E", which has a license dated 04.09.01, N 000766, certificate dated 13.10.2005 N 432 (v. 1, l.d. 47-49) and has the right to carry out appraisal activities ...
The cost of services for assessing the specified damage in the amount of 2,400 rubles. the plaintiff was paid, which is confirmed by the payment order dated 03.07.2006 N 4230 (vol. 1, l.d. 59).
The court of first instance calculated the amount of damage caused in the amount of 308,910 rubles, based on the expenses incurred by the plaintiff for repairs, excluding the cost of scrap metal under the acceptance certificate dated 16.11.2006, N 4834, as well as in the amount of 2,400 rubles. in terms of the cost of assessing the damaged property, which in total amounted to 311 310 rubles.
Under such circumstances, the decision of the Arbitration Court of the Udmurt Republic dated November 26, 2007 (operative part of November 20, 2007) is legal and justified, adopted in accordance with the norms of substantive and procedural law and cannot be canceled (Article 271 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation) ...
The state duty on the appeal applies to its applicant in accordance with Article 110 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.
Based on the foregoing and guided by Articles 176, 258, 268, 269, 271 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, the Seventeenth Arbitration Court of Appeal
decided:
the decision of the Arbitration Court of the Udmurt Republic of November 26, 2007 in case N A71-234 / 2007 shall be left unchanged, the appeal - dismissed.

The decision can be appealed against by way of cassation proceedings to the Federal Arbitration Court of the Ural District within two months from the date of its adoption through the Arbitration Court of the Perm Territory.
Information about the time, place and results of the consideration of the cassation appeal can be obtained on the website of the Federal Arbitration Court of the Ural District www.fasuo.arbitr.ru.

Prohibiting road signs restricting traffic by the dimensions of the vehicle: "Height restriction", "Width restriction", "Length restriction" and the "Minimum distance restriction" sign. What they are used for, where and how they are installed. What do the numbers on these signs mean and the fines for violating the requirements of these signs.

Sign 3.13 "Height limitation"

Road sign 3.13 "Height restriction" is used to prohibit the movement of vehicles, the overall height of which (with or without cargo) is greater than that indicated on the sign.

The sign is installed in cases where the distance from the road surface to the bottom of the superstructure of an artificial structure, utilities, gates, etc. (flight height) less than 5 meters.

The height indicated on the sign has a value less than the actual one by 0.2 - 0.4 meters. These are the norms. Moreover, this difference between the actual and the height indicated on the sign may be increased depending on the evenness of the road surface (the figure on the sign is slightly less than the actual height of the span).

If the height of the car (with or without cargo) is greater than indicated on the sign, then the driver must go around the section of the road on a different route. To warn the driver about the vehicle height restriction in front of the vehicle, sign 3.13 is duplicated, i.e. they are also installed in advance.

Preliminary sign 3.13 "Height limitation" with a plate is installed behind the intersection at the beginning of the road section, on which the vehicle height restrictions are introduced. Accordingly, at this intersection there is an opportunity to choose a different route.

The repeated mark 3.13 (main) is installed directly at the place of restriction. It is allowed to install a sign on the span of an artificial structure, and if there is a clearance gate in front of it, on the gate.

The yellow background of sign 3.13 "Height limitation" means that the sign is temporary.

Penalty for violation of sign 3.13 "Height restriction"

For non-compliance with the requirements of sign 3.13 "Height restriction", the driver may be sanctioned in the form of a warning or a fine of 500 rubles under Part 1 of Article 12.16 of the Administrative Code.

If the attempt to drive under the sign "Height limitation" entailed undesirable consequences for the flight, cargo or vehicle in the form of damage, i.e. caused an accident, then the sanctions will be different.

Sign 3.14 "Width limitation"

Road sign 3.14 "Width restriction" is used to prohibit the movement of vehicles, the overall width of which (with or without cargo) is greater than that indicated on the sign.

The sign is installed in front of the passage if its width is less than 3.5 meters (for example, in a tunnel, between bridge supports and in other narrow places). The width indicated on the sign is less than the actual value by 0.2 meters. These are the rules.

If the width of the car (with or without cargo) is greater than on the sign, then the driver must go around this section of the road on a different route. To warn the driver about the vehicle width limitation in front of the vehicle, sign 3.14 is installed twice, i.e. there will be a preliminary sign first.

Preliminary sign 3.14 "Width restriction" with a plate is installed behind the intersection at the beginning of the road section, where restrictions on the width of the vehicle are introduced. At this intersection, the driver can change his route and take a different direction.

The repeated mark 3.14 (main) is installed directly at the place of restriction. It is allowed to install a sign on the span or support of an artificial structure.

The yellow background of the sign 3.14 "Width limitation" means that the sign is temporary.

Penalty for violation of the mark 3.14 "Width restriction"

For non-compliance with the requirements of sign 3.14 "Width restriction", the driver may be sanctioned in the form of a warning or a fine of 500 rubles under Part 1 of Article 12.16 of the Administrative Code.

If an attempt to drive under the “Width restriction” sign entailed undesirable consequences for the structure of the span, cargo or vehicle in the form of damage, in other words, caused an accident, then the sanctions will be different, based on the results of the investigation.

Responsibility for the driver for violation of the permissible dimensions of the vehicle during the carriage of goods is determined by parts 1-6 of article 12.21.1 of the Administrative Code. The "range" of fines varies from the degree of violation of the rules for the carriage of goods from 1 to 10 thousand rubles per driver, with the detention of the vehicle.

Sign 3.15 "Length limitation"

Road sign 3.15 "Length limitation" prohibits the movement of a vehicle (or a combination of vehicles), the overall length of which (with or without cargo) is greater than that indicated on the sign.

The sign "Length limitation" is used to prohibit the movement of the above vehicles on road sections with a narrow carriageway, tight buildings, sharp turns, etc., where their movement or siding with oncoming vehicles is difficult.

If the overall length of the vehicle or vehicle composition (with or without cargo) is greater than that indicated on the sign, then the driver must bypass this section of the road on a different route. To warn the driver about the traffic restriction in front of the vehicle, sign 3.15 is installed twice, i.e. there will be a preliminary sign first.

Preliminary sign 3.15 "Length limitation" with a plate is installed behind the intersection at the beginning of the road section, on which restrictions on the length of the vehicle are introduced. At this intersection, the driver can change his route and take a different direction.

The repeated mark 3.15 (main) is installed directly at the place where the restriction begins.

The yellow background of the sign 3.15 "Length limitation" means that the sign is temporary.

Penalty for violation of the mark 3.15 "Length limitation"

For non-compliance with the requirements of sign 3.15 "Length limitation", the driver may be sanctioned in the form of a warning or a fine of 500 rubles under Part 1 of Article 12.16 of the Administrative Code.

If the attempt to drive under the "Length Limit" sign entailed undesirable consequences for the structure of the passage, cargo or vehicle in the form of damage, i.e. became the cause of the accident, then the sanctions will be different, based on the results of the investigation.

Sign 3.16 "Minimum distance limitation"

Road sign 3.16 "Minimum distance limitation" is used to prohibit the movement of vehicles with a distance between them less than indicated on the sign. Sign 3.16 can be found on bridge structures with spans of limited carrying capacity, on ice crossings, in tunnels, etc.).

The action of sign 3.16 extends from the place of installation of the sign to the nearest intersection behind the sign, and in a built-up area, in the absence of an intersection, to the end of the built-up area.

If necessary, the coverage area of the sign 3.16 can be reduced by using the sign.

The yellow background of sign 3.16 "Minimum distance limitation" means that the sign is temporary.

Penalty for violation of the sign 3.16 "Minimum distance limitation"

For non-observance of the requirements of sign 3.16 "Minimum distance limitation" the driver may be sanctioned in the form of a warning or a fine of 500 rubles. in accordance with part 1 of article 12.16 of the Administrative Code.

You should not confuse a fine for violating sign 3.16 with a fine for, so to speak, general non-observance of the distance, at which an accident occurs (collision from behind). Failure to comply with the distance is interpreted as a violation of the location of the vehicle on the roadway, and is punishable under Art. 12.15 part 1 - a fine of 1500 rubles.

In the case of sign 3.16, sanctions will follow for violation of the minimum established distance.

Navigating through a series of articles

It is unlikely that you will be able to rush along the roads on which you will not be able to meet a single road sign. They are the main assistants, indicating to drivers what actions he should take in specific areas in order to avoid, get away from undesirable consequences. A variety of road signs are installed along the roadsides, among which a specific group stands out, strictly prohibiting the implementation of certain maneuvers.

In each country, some restrictions are introduced not only on the amount of cargo transported, but also on the height of the vehicle itself. In particular, Russian legislation determines that the maximum height should not exceed four meters. By the way, such a requirement is also put forward by the CIS countries, therefore, a large cargo, whose height reaches 5 m, will not be able to rush unhindered along their and Russian roads if engineering structures are encountered on its way.

However, this does not mean that other countries have exactly the same requirements. If someone has already been to China, he knows that it is allowed to transport goods there by cars, the height of which does not exceed 4.3 meters. It is important to note that the proposed maximum height restrictions on different road sections may differ. So that the driver can follow the traffic rules impeccably, signs are installed on the roads indicating height restrictions.

Appointment of a road "assistant"

Installation of this is carried out on those sections of roads where there are bridges, overpasses, overpasses, under which cars have to pass. Exactly the same signs are placed in front of the entrance to the tunnels. Even a child will be able to understand why this is being done, since the space of the structure itself has a certain size, so it will certainly be difficult for a larger vehicle to squeeze into it.

Traffic sign requirements

The road sign "Height restriction" indicates to the vehicle driver a specific height restriction. In this case, the driver must take into account not only the parameters of the vehicle itself, but also the cargo that is transported, respectively, rises up, acting as a specific obstacle.

If you ignore the requirements of this sign, in the event of a vehicle passing by, the value of which exceeds the permissible limits, under certain engineering structures, it will not be possible to avoid disastrous consequences. In particular, heavy trucks can damage the structures themselves, followed by other unforeseen troubles. Due to the destruction of structures, if the car touched and damaged the crossings over the road, created specifically for the safe movement of citizens. Due to exceeding the specified parameters, video surveillance systems and lighting devices may fail.

A vehicle driver who ignored the prohibition of the established sign actually violates traffic rules. As you know, in case of violation of traffic rules, it is impossible to evade responsibility. When trying to drive on a road on which a height restriction is established, the driver clearly violates the traffic rules, for which he is forced to bear administrative or civil liability, depending on what the consequences have arisen.

Sign installation rules

The installation of the sign is carried out on several sections of the road, including even before the moment when the car approaches the engineering structure. This is done so that the driver, having noticed the restriction that applies to his car, make a maneuver that involves changing the route. In this case, the driver will not have to panic about the fact that he is perfect, therefore he does not understand which way it is easier for him to turn in order to freely proceed further, bypassing the restricted area for him.

Below the numerical limit, circled by a red line, an additional indicator must be installed, on which an arrow is depicted indicating in which direction it is better to continue driving. On the structure itself, a sign is re-posted in case the driver was previously inattentive and missed the initial important warning.

On the sign itself, a numerical indicator of the maximum height is indicated. The calculation of the permissible values is carried out by specialists, taking into account a certain additional margin, the value of which can reach forty centimeters. Such a margin is important, since over time, the roads need to be repaired, respectively, a new road surface can be laid, after such actions, the total value between the structure and the road is reduced by several centimeters.

It doesn't hurt at all to pay attention to the color background on which the numerical indicator of the restriction is spelled out. If the background is accompanied by a white background, then the height ban is in effect on a permanent basis. If you notice a yellow background, then the restrictions are temporary.

Whatever the color of the background, its paint is accompanied by reflective characteristics, so the driver of the vehicle will easily detect the warning even at night.

Responsibility for violation

Every driver must strictly observe the traffic rules. However, it should be borne in mind that the consequences that may arise due to non-compliance with the requirements of traffic rules may be different. If a driver tries to rush along a road on which a ban has been put forward related to limiting the vehicle in height, such rash actions will be followed by a disaster. A large cargo simply will not be able to pass unhindered under the engineering structures, therefore mechanical damage to the vehicle itself, as well as to the engineering structures that it encountered along the way, will follow. Unfortunately, in such situations, a person driving a car risks not only his own health, and sometimes his life, but also those road users who, by chance, happened to be nearby at the time of the accident.

Even if the driver took a risk and rushed under the structures without damage, but at the same time the height of the vehicle still exceeded the permissible indicator, the driver is subject to administrative liability, which implies a strict five hundred rubles.

So, it is important enough to be extremely careful during the entire period of driving. This will ensure that no traffic warning is overlooked. "Assistants" will help car owners to proceed to their destination quickly, while easily bypassing all obstacles, as well as getting away from unpleasant adventures associated with the destruction of structures, damage to the car or the cargo being transported.
