Fine for driving under a brick in 2021. Are you deprived of your license for driving under sign 3.1?


What is the fine for driving under a “No Traffic” sign?

Who can issue a fine for driving after a “No Traffic” sign?

Typically, cameras record violations at stop lines at intersections. An inspector often fines people for a “No Traffic” sign.

In Moscow, cameras do not record violations related to the “No Traffic” sign.

Where is this sign located?

Road crews put up a “No Traffic” sign when cars interfere with pedestrians or repair crews. Most often the sign is located next to these areas:

  • pedestrian paths;
  • places where people gather on the occasion of a mass event;
  • section of the road where repairs are underway;
  • leaving the yard of the residential sector;
  • office buildings;
  • parks and recreation areas.

You can drive under the sign only for official reasons - more on that in the next section.

  1. For driving under a “No Traffic” sign, the fine is 500 rubles.
  2. If there are signs under the sign, its effect is limited to specific types of cars or direction.
  3. You can drive under the sign if you live or work in its area.
  4. Special services employees, disabled people and couriers can drive under the “No Traffic” sign.
  5. If you do not agree with the fine, file a complaint addressed to the chief inspector who issued the decision.

The peculiarity of the “no entry” sign is that it only tells the driver that the specified section of the road cannot be entered. However, it gives absolutely no information about what exactly awaits the driver at the specified section. In principle, this is quite logical, because a law-abiding driver simply will not drive under a brick.

However, if we consider the situation from the other side, then a driver driving under a brick cannot know in advance what punishment awaits him. It all depends on which road the car ends up on:

  • on the regular road
  • on a road with a dedicated lane for public transport,
  • onto a one-way road.

Let's consider each situation separately.

The penalty for driving under a “No Traffic” sign is defined in Art. 12.16 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. In accordance with this regulatory act, the fine for such an offense is 500 rubles.

Failure to comply with a traffic sign is a minor offense and may be punishable by a verbal warning. Art. speaks about this. 2.9 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

A fine for driving under a “No Traffic” sign can be paid with a 50% discount (Article 32.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation). In order to reduce the amount of collection by half, it is necessary to repay the debt no later than 20 days from the date the resolution was issued.

According to Part 7 of Art. 12.16 of the Code of Administrative Offences, crossing a “no traffic” sign by a truck in St. Petersburg or Moscow threatens significant punishment for the driver. In this case, the fine is 5,000 rubles, whereas in the regions the fine is 500 rubles (Part 6 of Article 12.16 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation).

The vast majority of road signs have conditions under which failure to comply with their requirements is not considered a violation. Index 3.2 also has its exceptions, prescribed in GOST R 52289-2004. The sign can be ignored:

  • cars transporting children and adults with confirmed 1st and 2nd group disabilities (as a driver or passenger);
  • route transport;
  • private cars that belong to citizens permanently residing or working in the “forbidden” territory;
  • Federal postal service vehicles (hereinafter referred to as FPS);
  • Vehicles serving enterprises or residential buildings located behind a prohibitory sign.

When crossing the “No Traffic” sign, you should make sure that you have documents giving you the right to move along this section of the road.

  • Persons living or working in such a territory need registration documents, a pass to the enterprise or an employment contract.
  • Vehicles that serve facilities located in a closed area - waybills with the address of the recipient of the cargo.
  • Cars transporting disabled people must be equipped with a special identification sign. The disabled person is required to present the inspector with a document confirming the status assigned to him.
  • The driver of the FPS car does not need to present any accompanying papers. The body of the postal vehicle must be blue with a diagonal white line on it.

All vehicles authorized to proceed, despite sign 3.2, must enter and exit the “forbidden” zone at the intersections that are closest to their destination.

So, sign 3.2 is used to inform the driver about the beginning of a section of the road along which one cannot continue. Entry under the sign is allowed to certain groups of cars. Persons driving cars from the exclusion list must have documents confirming the right to move in the designated area. If there are no such papers, then the traffic inspector has the right to impose a fine on the driver.

  • By car and driver
  • By resolution number

Similar prohibition signs

In addition to sign 3.2, there is sign 3.4 - Movement of freight vehicles with a permissible maximum weight of more than 3.5 tons is prohibited. The fine for sign 3.4 is 500 rubles.

There are several ways: check traffic police fines by driver's license, by car number, by resolution number.

Sign 3.3 (a red stripe around the perimeter of the circle, and a car on a white background in the center of the circle) - The movement of motor vehicles is prohibited. This includes all vehicles with motors, except mopeds, all-terrain vehicles, tractors and self-propelled vehicles. By the way, rights to tractors and other types of special equipment have several categories and subcategories.

Exceptions for the above prohibition signs

These signs do not apply to disabled people of groups 1 and 2, service and personal vehicles of persons living in this territory.

Fine for driving under a “No Traffic” sign in 2021

The imposition of a fine for “brick” is one of the most appealed violations. Inaccurate wording in laws, incorrect installation of signs and disagreement with the extent of responsibility lead many drivers to court to challenge the decision of inspectors. Those who were not driving the car at the time it drove under a brick, which was recorded on camera, have a greater chance of having their fine receipt invalidated. There are often positive decisions in favor of drivers when the installation of a sign is controversial or there is no direct evidence of the movement of the car.

Driving on a roadway where traffic is prohibited by a corresponding sign will subject the driver to a large fine. And if you violate it again, there is a huge chance of losing your driver’s license for a year. It is much more correct to drive along the permitted section of the road and not take shortcuts, violating the law. Saving five minutes is not worth a fine of 5,000 rubles. and deprivation of the ability to drive a car.

The amount of the fine for driving under a sign depends on its location.
Information about fines is presented in the table. Amount of fine for violation of sign 3.1

Place where the sign is installedAmount of penalty
When entering a road intended for route vehicles along a designated lane;1500 rub.;
When entering an adjacent territory into which entry from an adjacent direction is prohibited;Warning or fine 500 rubles;
When entering a road with one-way oncoming traffic;Deprivation of the right to drive from 4 to 6 months or a fine of 5,000 rubles;
For repeated violation of sign 3.1, prohibiting re-entry onto a road with one-way oncoming traffic.Deprivation of rights for a year and a fine of 5,000 rubles.

This prohibitory sign does not apply to public transport (buses, trolleybuses, minibuses, trams) moving along their route, on which there are stops.

Also, the sign does not apply to ambulances, fire departments, and police vehicles, but only if the blue flashing light is working.

If the “Brick” sign is not combined with other signs, that is, there is no information that the driver is driving onto a one-way road with the opposite direction, then in 2021 the fine for a brick in this case will be minimal - 1,500 rubles. For Moscow and St. Petersburg, fines are 2 times higher.

Such cases include the following:

  • Repairs are taking place on a section of the road, and therefore a Brick sign has been installed
  • The Brick sign is installed at the entrance to the local area.
  • the sign can hang over the arch of a multi-story building. Passage through the arch is prohibited by a sign.
  • bricks are placed at gas stations. As a rule, from the opposite end of the entrance or exit from the adjacent territory.
  • the sign is located at the entrance to a one-way road, but there is no sign at the beginning of that road.

The fine for driving under a brick in 2021 in the above cases will be 1,500 rubles, but sometimes you can get by with a warning. This is stipulated in Part 1 of Art. 12.16 Code of Administrative Offenses:

1. Failure to comply with the requirements prescribed by road signs or markings of the roadway, with the exception of cases provided for in parts 2 - 7 of this article and other articles of this chapter, entails a warning or the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of five hundred rubles.

Is it possible to challenge a fine?

When deciding whether to challenge imposed monetary sanctions, one should proceed from the principle of expediency. If the fine for driving under a prohibitory sign is 500 or even 5,000 rubles, there is no point in contacting the justice authorities, since legal costs, waste of time and nerves are not worth these amounts seized from the state. But if we are talking about deprivation of rights, then this penalty can be challenged if there are grounds for it. The claim must be filed with the court no later than 10 days from the date of drawing up the protocol.

Fine for driving under a “No Traffic” sign

It turns out that if in front of us there is a road with one-way oncoming traffic, then entry from our side onto this road is prohibited. For this reason, before entering it there is a road sign 3.1 “Brick”.

In this situation, part 3 of Article 12.16 of the Code of Administrative Offenses is violated:

3. Driving in the opposite direction on a one-way road entails an administrative fine in the amount of five thousand rubles or deprivation of the right to drive vehicles for a period of four to six months.

It turns out that for a brick located at the exit to a one-way road, a fine or deprivation of rights is provided .

If the Brick sign is paired with a “Lane” table, which only applies to the lane above which it is located. In this case, two options are possible:

  1. A brick hangs over the passing lane for route vehicles.
  2. A brick hangs above the oncoming lane for route vehicles.

The “No movement” sign belongs to the group of prohibitory signs . They mark those sections of the road and territory on which movement of any vehicles is prohibited.

It differs from a “No Entry” sign in that it is never placed on a one-way road section before a turn. This needs to be distinguished, since many people confuse the meanings of similar signs.

Sign 3.2 “No movement” is often confused with 3.1 “No entry”. In common parlance, the last plate is called Brick. It is also included in the category of prohibition signs. Externally, the Brick is a red circle with a white rectangle on it. There is a white border around the perimeter. Brick prohibits entry. However, leaving under the sign will not be punishable.

In some situations, installing a “no entry” sign is mandatory:

  1. A road on which travel is permitted in one direction only. It is mandatory to have appropriate signs (5.5 and 5.6) indicating the beginning and end of a one-way lane. A prohibitory sign will be placed to prevent vehicles from driving in the opposite direction. If the road surface is multi-lane, “no entry” must be installed on each of the lanes.
  2. A road on which only public transport vehicles (buses, minibuses, trolleybuses) are allowed to travel. Sign 3.1 is installed to prevent the driver from entering the specified lane.
  3. Carrying out repair work, the presence of other obstacles that require a detour.
  4. If movement through any territory (or entry into it from a specific direction) is unacceptable. For example, in a parking lot, gas station or in recreation areas, sign 3.1 is used to indicate the places of entry and exit from these areas.

In relation to violators of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, there are several options for sanctions:

  • Fine for a brick in the amount of 500 rubles. – the mildest type of penalty. Applicable if the driver drove under an installed “brick” at a gas station, parking lot and other areas adjacent to the road. This is evidenced by Art. 12.16 Code of Administrative Offenses (Part 1). In this case, rights are not deprived for a violation.
  • A fine of 1,500 rubles. Used in relation to drivers who entered the lane of public transport (according to Article 12.17 of the Administrative Code), ignoring road sign 3.1 “entry prohibited”. In Moscow, the fine is 3,000 rubles.
  • Fine 5,000 rubles. or deprivation of a driver's license for a period of 4 to 6 months. Sanctions are applicable if a vehicle enters a one-way lane under sign 3.1. The method of entry into the prohibited territory (reverse or front of the car) does not matter (Part 3 of Article 12.16 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation).

The sign can be installed only with the approval of the traffic police and on the basis of current legislation. If the “brick” is placed in such a way that the requirements for its visibility are violated, bringing the driver to administrative liability is unfounded.

Sign 3.1 - “entry prohibited” must be located directly before a turn, intersection or entry point into a prohibited area. Please note: in the latter case, you can place the “brick” only at a certain distance, namely:

  • 25 m – within a populated area. The height of the sign can vary between 2-4 m.
  • 50 m – outside the populated area. The required height is from 1.5 to 3 m.

When the “brick” is installed on the side of the roadway, the minimum distance to the latter should be 0.5 m. The visibility of the prohibition sign should also be taken into account. Its required indicator is 100 m. The presence of any obstacles (tree crowns, billboards, etc.) that interfere with the view of the sign will play into the driver’s hands when challenging the decision to impose a fine for driving under a brick.

In order to avoid being subject to a fine, you need to know the places where sign 3.1 can be installed. This procedure is regulated in accordance with GOST R 52289-2004.

“Entry prohibited” is established:

  1. In places and sections of a public road where it is necessary to restrict traffic in order to reduce congestion on a road intended for public transport. There are situations when a whole lane is allocated to him.
  2. In areas of the road where repair work is being carried out in order to avoid vehicles entering the repaired area.
  3. At gas stations, parking lots, as well as in public recreation areas to differentiate the exit and entry of road users.
  4. At entry points to certain institutions, such as hospitals, police stations and other public organizations.
  5. In places where you can get into the oncoming lane of one-way traffic, to prevent accidents.

Difference from the “No Entry” sign

Traffic police fines for “brick” (table)
Type of fine Article of the Administrative Code Amount of traffic police fine
1. Penalty for driving against the direction on a single-lane road where there is a “brick” sign Article 12.16.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation 5000 rub. or deprivation of rights for up to 6 months
2. Fine for driving “under a brick” into the yard Article 12.16.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation 500 rub.
3. Fine for driving under a brick in bus lanes Article 12.17 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation 1500 rub.
4. Repeated “brick” for “oncoming traffic” within 1 year. Article 12.16.3.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation Deprivation of rights (if employee) / 5000 rub. (if camera)

This sign is a red circle with a diameter of 70 centimeters, in the middle of which there is a white rectangle (“brick”). Even the youngest drivers are familiar with it, but not everyone can explain the difference between it and the 3.2 sign.

The brick is intended to prohibit movement in a certain direction, while the previously discussed sign is intended to prohibit movement on all sides in a limited area. Simply put, “Entry prohibited” is set if driving on the road is possible, but only in one direction.

Classic examples are the installation of a “No entry” sign in front of dedicated lanes for specialized transport (public), at the beginning of one-way roads, as well as when determining the direction of travel along the territory adjacent to the road (for example, at a gas station).

For which of these signs is there a fine? If we have dealt with the “Movement prohibited” sign, then regarding the “brick” we can say that the size of the sanction is not uniform. It will depend on the specific circumstances of the offense:

  • Violating the rules for driving on a one-way road is punishable by a fine of 5,000 rubles or deprivation of the right to drive a car for a period of 4 to 6 months.
  • Driving into a dedicated lane without sufficient grounds will result in the payment of 1,500 rubles (3,000 rubles for Moscow and St. Petersburg).
  • Improper movement in the surrounding area will cost 500 rubles.

Having familiarized yourself with all the above subtleties, each driver will be able to clearly understand how and in what direction he is allowed to move on public roads. Motorists will also have the opportunity to challenge the decision of a traffic police officer if he does not take into account the exceptions established by law or does not take into account the documents presented to him.

Reading time: 3 minutes

You need to know the rules of the road (traffic rules). They not only prohibit committing violations on the road, but also provide certain rights. Prohibition signs do not apply to all drivers and modes of transport.

The “No movement” sign in the basic rules for the driver is numbered 3.2 and is a white circle with a red rim.

We will tell you what it prohibits, who it does not apply to, and what the fine is in 2021 for driving under a “No Traffic” sign.

The basic laws for the driver are concentrated in the Rules of the Road. However, there are other regulations of the Russian Federation that directly determine the procedure for driving on roads. In this case, this is the state standard (GOST).

We invite you to familiarize yourself with: The procedure for compensation for damage in case of an accident

Specifically, GOST R 52289-2004 relates to “Movement is prohibited”. In paragraph 5.4.

3 of this document states that this sign on the road is used when it is necessary to introduce a ban on traffic on certain sections of the road. In the same document, paragraph 5.4.

Traffic regulations determine that it is impossible to move in the area covered by this road image in both directions. Therefore, it should not be used on roads with only one-way traffic.

Its effect applies to transport of any type. Drivers should be aware that they will be punished for illegal entry under sign 3.2. In this case, this is a fine, the amount of which we will discuss below.

However, like many prohibitory signs, “No Traffic” provides a fairly significant list of vehicles to which it does not apply. What exceptions are there?

The list of those who can safely enter the restricted area is quite large. It is established by GOST R 52289-2004. Clause 5.4.30 of this document indicates for which groups of people and vehicles “Movement is prohibited” does not apply.

Can enter:

  1. People living in the area within the scope of the sign.
  2. Drivers with disabilities of groups I or II, as well as drivers transporting persons of these groups or disabled children.
  3. Persons working inside the zone using personal transport.

What vehicles are allowed entry:

  1. Route transport, if the restricted area is located on the established route.
  2. Transport that serves enterprises and their employees within the “No Movement” zone.
  3. Transport of the state postal service, if it is indicated by a white inclined stripe on a blue background.

Naturally, the right to such travel, if necessary, needs to be confirmed, otherwise, at best, you will have an unpleasant conversation with the traffic police officers.

What documents confirm the right to move in the “No Movement” zone:

  1. Residents of the area covered by this sign must have a passport with the appropriate place of registration.
  2. Drivers who serve enterprises in this zone or deliver goods to them are required to have a permit or invoice that indicates an address within its coverage zone.
  3. Employees of enterprises in this zone also need something to confirm the fact of working in it. In particular, you can take your employment contract with you.
  4. If the driver is disabled, his vehicle must be marked with an appropriate sticker. It is necessary to have documents confirming the fact of disability.

There is a similar road sign 3.1 “No Entry”. Outwardly, it looks like “No movement”, only with a red circle inscribed in the center of which there is a white rectangle. For this addition it is often called a “brick”. But what is its main feature?

Sign 3.1 is more strict and assumes the presence of a real danger within its zone; in particular, it is installed before entering sections of roads with oncoming one-way traffic. Only passenger transport whose route runs through this territory is allowed to enter the territory of its operation.

Violation of traffic requirements, even if it did not entail any consequences, is a serious administrative offense.

Responsibility for such violations in the Russian Federation is provided for in the Code of Administrative Offenses (CAO) dated December 30, 2001 No. 195-FZ (as amended on August 3, 2021). Article 12.

6 of the Code of Administrative Offenses establishes that such an offense is punishable by a warning or a fine.

If your explanations do not satisfy the traffic police, you will have to pay a fine. For driving under a “No Traffic” sign in 2021, the fine is 500 rubles.

When you are fined illegally or erroneously, try to challenge the decision by contacting the traffic police or in court. In both cases, it is better to involve a qualified lawyer in the case.

If you agree with the decision on the fine, try to pay it on time. The presence of unpaid fines can lead to various unpleasant consequences, including refusal to travel abroad. You have 70 days to pay the fine. Ten of them are given to appeal the decision.

Fine for driving under a brick in 2021. Are you deprived of your license for driving under sign 3.1?

Another important nuance to be familiar with is that, unlike the vast majority of other signs, “Brick” does not have a coverage area as such. This means that its meaning can extend to the entire territory or strip located behind the sign, limiting the rights of drivers in the area, the definition of the boundaries of which can become a serious reason for all sorts of disputes and proceedings.

If we delve deeper into the meaning of the sign and the purpose of its installation, then in addition to regulating the entrance to gas stations, the territory of shopping centers, enterprises and residential buildings, it is used to restrict traffic in the oncoming direction on one-way roads.

In addition, “Brick” can be introduced to temporarily restrict entry into a site or territory for the purpose of holding festive and other events there. In the latter case, the sign may be supplemented with informative signs explaining the terms of its validity.

It is noteworthy that signs from this group can also be installed with the constant use of “Brick”.

Recently, signs have begun to appear more and more often on the territory of parking lots and various enterprises, prohibiting entry into the areas limited by them, which may not be accompanied by a sign. And most often, such methods are resorted to in cases where the legal installation of a sign is impossible, but the pressing issue of restricting entry is on the agenda.

Meanwhile, such actions should be regarded as nothing other than a direct violation of traffic rules, and in such cases one should be guided solely by the presence or absence of sign 3.4.

If a sign that is not included in the list of traffic rules information signs accompanies the sign, then it should be regarded solely as an explanation to 3.4.

As for the main difference from the white round sign with a red border and serial number 3.2, it lies in fewer restrictions. Thus, 3.2 prohibits the movement of any type of transport, while 3.4 allows passage:

  • residents of apartment buildings;
  • drivers with disabilities in vehicles with appropriate designations;
  • special equipment;
  • employees of enterprises located in this territory;
  • postal machines;
  • city ​​transport.

The amount of the fine for this violation depends on the location of the sign.
Let's present the information in a table. Amount of fine for violation

Sign location Responsibility
When entering a road where minibuses can drive in a certain lane; 1500 rub.;
When entering an adjacent territory where entry from the adjacent direction is prohibited; Warning or fine 500 rubles;
When entering a road with one-way oncoming traffic; Deprivation of the right to drive from 4 to 6 months or a fine of 5,000 rubles;
For re-entering a road with one-way oncoming traffic; Deprivation of rights for a year and a fine of 5,000 rubles.

The sign does not apply to the following road users:

  1. Public transport, provided that they are ordered to follow a specific route and only in the vehicle lane.
  2. Residents living in the area where this sign is installed.
  3. Drivers of special vehicles with a flashing light on.
  4. If there is a sign under the sign explaining which road users it does not apply to.

In all other situations, entry under the “Brick” sign is prohibited, regardless of the situation and conditions on the road, as well as the status of the road user.

What is the fine for driving under a “No Traffic” sign in 2021?

The sanctions and fines applied for non-compliance with the requirements of sign 3.1 may vary; their exact amount depends on several factors:

  • the specific situation on the road in which the offense occurred;
  • the category of the violator himself (this is the first time he violates this rule or there have been similar cases before);
  • means used to record the violation (photo or video equipment).

The penalties applicable for each type of offense are indicated in the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. The amendments made in 2021 do not increase the punishment for violators - its amount remains the same. Depending on various factors, the following sanctions may be applied to the violator:

  1. 500 rub. – the most lenient punishment of all possible, which is applied if the car has driven onto the territory adjacent to the road, in front of which a prohibitory sign has been installed (Part 1 of Article 12.16 of the Administrative Code).
    As practice shows, in the event of such a violation, a sanction in the form of deprivation of rights is not applied. But if you manage to pay within 20 days, then the fine will be 250 rubles.
  2. 1500 rub. – this amount of the fine will be for drivers who, despite the ban, entered a lane intended only for route vehicles (Article 12.17, Part 1.1-2 of the Administrative Code). It is worth considering that for residents of two federal cities - Moscow and St. Petersburg - an increased fine is provided - 3,000 rubles.
  3. 5000 rub. or deprivation of rights for up to six months - a more serious punishment, which is imposed on drivers who, despite the presence of a prohibiting sign, enter a one-way lane (Part 3 of Article 12.16 of the Code of Administrative Offenses). It does not matter how exactly the offender entered the road - with the nose of the car or using reverse gear. In both cases the punishment will be the same.

If the last type of violation occurs repeatedly, then the perpetrator may be subject to liability in the form of deprivation of the right to drive a car for up to 1 year (Part 3.1 of Article 12.16 of the Administrative Code). In the case where a repeated violation was recorded by special technical means (photo and video devices), the driver will be fined 5,000 rubles.

In order for penalties to be applied to the violator, the sign must be installed in accordance with legal requirements and with the consent of the traffic police. This sign is placed immediately before an intersection, U-turn or entrance to a prohibited area, and the distance from its beginning to the sign must be at least:

  • 25 m – in populated areas. The height of the sign in this case should be from 2 to 4 m;
  • 50 m – outside the populated area. The height of the sign is 1.5-3 m.

The distance from the sign to the roadway (if it is installed on the side of it) must be at least 50 cm. At the same time, there are requirements for the visibility of the sign - it must be at least 100 m. The sign must not be obscured by tree branches, advertising boards or other interference.

If these requirements are not met, the application of punishment to the violator will be unlawful, since it will be impossible to distinguish between intentionality and guilt in his actions.

Certain categories of drivers are not subject to the prohibition sign. These include:

  • drivers of route vehicles - in the event that we are talking about entering the lane intended for such vehicles;
  • drivers of vehicles who were moving in oncoming traffic or entered a prohibited area in reverse. this is a rather controversial and dangerous maneuver, since some traffic police officers still fine drivers for such a violation.

But if the driver can prove that such actions were forced and objectively necessary, and the maneuver itself was performed safely, he will avoid liability. For example, if it was necessary to park in a parking lot or avoid an obstacle on the road.

Anatoly My wife drove under a brick in January 2021 and didn’t even notice it at first. What threatens her now?

Answer Everything will depend on the specific circumstances. If there was a camera recording traffic violations in that place, then there may be a fine. But often drivers only receive a warning. And if a violation was not recorded, then nothing threatens at all.

Andrey Got a fine today saying I broke the rules and drove under a brick. Only in the photo you can’t see either the sign or the road markings. Just my car number on a white background. From this photo I can’t even understand where I could have violated. What can you do now?

Answer You need to go to court and appeal the administrative violation protocol. File a complaint in which you indicate that the photograph does not show the fact of the offense.

Alexey I was leaving the yard today and turned left and didn’t notice the prohibitory sign. As a result, I drove onto a one-way road in the opposite direction. The inspector drew up a report, now I face a fine or even deprivation of my license. Is there anything we can do now?

Answer You will have to challenge this protocol in court. If you have arguments or mitigating circumstances, then the court may side with you and choose the minimum punishment provided for in this article.

Sergey Today, the driver of a truck who was transporting materials for construction received a fine. He drove under a brick and was stopped by a traffic police officer. The sign was located five meters from the construction site. Where to turn now?

Answer You need to try going to court. In your situation, the fine may be canceled.

Vladimir I live in the yard, and we are doing road repairs here. We have to drive around this place a little. But where you can go around there is a prohibitory sign. Tell me, can I drive under a brick if I live in a house next to which this sign is installed?

There are rules that explain the reasons for placing bricks. For example:

  • The sign is on a one-way road. This measure helps prevent entry into the lane from the oncoming side. In the complex there are signs 5.5 and 5.6 on the highway, which limit the dangerous area.
  • Bricks are hung in front of fenced areas, which include local areas, underground parking lots, and areas for special vehicles near shopping centers. The ban is due to the movement of cars in this area and the increased risk of collision. Compliance with the rules reduces the accident rate.
  • On a highway intended for municipal transport.
  • In places of repair work. Temporary warnings are issued at the same time as the brick. Upon completion of the roadway restoration, warning buoys and signs are removed.

Fine for violating the “No Traffic” sign

There are exceptions that allow sign 3.1 to be ignored. These include:

  • driving on a single-lane road in reverse;
  • passage under a brick of route transport;
  • violation of the ban as a result of an emergency situation on the highway.

The driver can also drive under a brick installed illegally.

All the nuances are set out in the Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court dated December 24, 2006 No. 18. However, it must be remembered that ignoring the ban should not create a dangerous situation for other vehicles.

Often a travel ban violates GOST rules. This leads to a situation where the driver does not have time to react to the sudden appearance of a brick in the wrong place and automatically drives under it.

If the car owner considers the recovery to be unfounded, it is easy to go to court with a counterclaim. The application is sent to the authority to which the section of the route where the prohibition sign is installed is assigned.

To win the case, you need to collect significant evidence that you were right and that the traffic police officer’s actions were wrong.

Present photographs that indicate:

  • on the unreasonableness of installing bricks in this place;
  • for poor viewing of a prohibitory sign from the road:
  • on the poor condition of the road symbol.

It is advisable to visit the city planning department and obtain a plan where the areas designated for the installation of appropriate signs are marked. When a sign is placed at the entrance to a parking lot or local area, surveillance cameras will help achieve justice.

The minibus lane is not intended for the movement of drivers in private cars. According to Part 1.1 of Article 12.17 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, for such disregard of the rules the driver will receive a fine of 1,500 rubles. As an exception, only residents of Moscow and St. Petersburg can be singled out: natives of the actual and cultural capitals will be required to pay double the amount (in accordance with part 1.2 of the same article).

After Federal Law No. 437 came into force on December 22, 2014, all fines in one way or another related to the “entry prohibited” sign can be paid with a 50% discount during a grace period of twenty days.

The only violation for which the financial penalty cannot be reduced is repeated disregard of traffic rules within a year from the date of a similar offense. For persistent violators, the authorities decided not to apply a grace period for paying fines.

The specified road sign allows the car owner to move exclusively in a straight direction, prohibiting the use of other maneuvering options.

If a sign is installed at a road intersection, its powers affect only this intersection. If it is placed outside an intersection, then its influence extends within the road until the nearest intersection. In this case, there is no prohibition on turning to the right if you need to get into nearby territory. Route buses, trolleybuses and trams may not be subject to this restriction.

An important note is that the sign in question may be located in a break in the demarcation strip to prevent vehicles from turning left and making a U-turn.

A serious violation is the intentional or unintentional crossing of a solid line.

This sign warns the driver against entering the oncoming lane and driving on a one-way road. Since this is unsafe both for the owner of the car and for other car owners and pedestrians, this violation is subject to deprivation of rights.

It's no secret that almost every rule has a number of exceptions. This statement is also true for sign 3.2. Based on traffic regulations, the following categories of vehicles can ignore the prohibition that it carries:

Even though the so-called prohibition signs are considered to be simple, but drivers’ least favorite symbols are the so-called prohibition signs: they restrict traffic exactly in the place where you would really like to quickly pass. According to statistics, such violations are recorded by police officers every day: largely because the law in 2021 provides for a minor fine for driving under a “No Traffic” sign.

The legislation establishes traffic rules that are mandatory. Among them, there is a group of signs that prohibit travel or entry in certain places.

For confidence and peace of mind, you must have supporting documents with you. This may be an identity card with a registration address or a bill of lading with the address of the recipient in the area of ​​the sign.

Amount of fine

If a driver is driving a vehicle that is not exempt and runs a stop sign, he or she may be subject to penalties. Let's consider what punishment the driver faces, and what fine he will have to pay for driving under the “No Traffic” sign and other prohibiting signs.

For the road sign "No traffic"

When a driver has violated the rules and ignored a prohibition sign, the punishment may consist of a warning or monetary penalties. Thus, in 2021, traffic police officers will charge a fine of 500 rubles for a “No Traffic” sign. If the violator manages to make payment within 20 days, he is entitled to a 50 percent discount.

For the road sign “Trucks are prohibited”

There are also sections of roads in cities where truck traffic is restricted. The sign contains an image of a vehicle intended for the transport of goods and the maximum permissible weight. If the maximum tonnage is not specified, the ban applies to trucks weighing more than 3.5 tons.

Road sign “No trucks allowed”

What is the fine for driving under a “No Trucks” sign? For such a violation, you are required to pay a monetary penalty in the amount of 500 rubles. For car drivers transporting goods in Moscow or St. Petersburg, the amount of sanctions for driving after a prohibitory sign is much higher and can reach 5 thousand rubles.

Modern business related to the production or sale of products cannot be imagined without freight transport. Every businessman tries to reduce transportation costs and reduce the number of flights, which often leads to overloading of the vehicle. Each truck has a load capacity limit recorded in the registration certificate. Fines for individual entrepreneurs for overloading a truck in 2021 depend on the degree of overload and can range from 1.5 thousand rubles (per driver) to 500 thousand rubles (per company).

For the road sign “Traffic is prohibited for motor vehicles”

Mechanical types include vehicles, with the exception of mopeds, which are driven by an engine. In addition to cars, this category also includes tractors and self-propelled vehicles. Drivers of these types of transport are subject to the sanctions described above for driving in the area covered by a prohibitory sign.
