Stop and parking (SDA). Stopping and parking of vehicles

One of the most important topics of traffic rules is stopping and parking. Traffic it is disclosed in maximum detail. Well, this topic is very important, especially for future drivers, so it's worth discussing it.

Rule number one

It begins immediately with the generally accepted provisions. And the first thing is to tell where the stop and parking is allowed. SDA reads: the vehicle can be stopped or parked on the right side of the road, and solely on the roadside. If it is not, it is allowed to put the TS near the edge of the carriageway.

And what is the left side? There in general it is impossible to stop? It is possible, but only in those cities / villages / village, where only one traffic zone operates for different directions. And if there are no tram ways along the center. It is still permissible to stop at the left, if there is a one-way traffic on the road . It is forbidden to do this only to trucks of cargo type (which weigh more than 3,500 kilograms). Is that for short-term loading or unloading.

Nuances and exceptions

So, above, one position has been described, relating to a topic such as stopping and parking. The SDA contains some explanations regarding this rule. So, it was said that the truck could pause on the left side of the road, but only to load the car or vice versa, to unload it. This is possible, but only if the place is marked with a special sign. It is called the "Beginning of the settlement". It looks like a sign with a white background on which black letters say, for example, "Krasnodar", "Rostov-on-Don", "Izhevsk", etc. But even then, stopping is not always possible. To the left you can stop only if the road is two-lane and the traffic there, respectively, is 2-sided. You can not do this if the middle of the road is divided by one solid one. In general, it must be considered and be attentive.

Rule number two

The following provision concerning a topic such as stopping and parking (SDA) states that a vehicle can be parked exclusively in one row and it must be parallel to the edge of the roadway. There can be exceptions. And these are the situations when the driver is in the place, the configuration of which allows you to put the car somehow differently. By the way, if a person wants to park a motorcycle, a moped or a bicycle, then you can do it in two rows. This is due, naturally, to the distinctive dimensions.

It is still possible to park the car at the very edge of the sidewalk, which borders directly to the roadway. However, this is permissible for drivers of cars and 2-wheeled vehicles. And in that place a special sign (numbered, as 6.4 and necessarily "backed up" by a label 8.6.2 or other similar) should be installed. On the plates and shows how exactly in this particular place you can put the vehicle, without violating the rule.

Another worth noting is the attention to one nuance, which hides in itself such a topic as parking and stopping. The traffic rules say that if the roadway is separated from the sidewalk by a lawn, then it is strictly forbidden to place the vehicle. Cases such were, because now it is already stipulated. You can not park a car on such a sidewalk.

Recreation

There is another point that is important to mention. Rest - for this purpose, it is also often provided parking and a stop. SDA says that for this there are certain areas. This is true. If a person is tired, and feels that he needs to exercise a little, or even requires a long rest - then you need to quickly find the sign that it allows. Usually it looks like a plate on which is depicted a tree and a nearby bench.

If there are no such signs along the way and it is not foreseen, then you just need to go out of the road and stop - that's also possible. The main principle is that the vehicle does not interfere with other road users.

Prohibitions

As it was already possible to understand, stopping and parking of vehicles is allowed not everywhere. It can not be made on tram tracks, but also near them. Because this way it will be possible to interfere with trams.

At railway crossings and 50 meters from them it is also prohibited, since it is life-threatening. Overpasses, tunnels, overpasses and bridges are also places not subject to parking and short-term parking. Also, you can not do this in a place where the road is too narrow. There must be at least three free meters between the car and the edge of the roadway.

Crossing, stopping buses and transitions

Pedestrian crossings are also not designed for stops. You can park, but not closer than 5 meters from it. Still, if there are any dangerous turns or convex fractures near the planned stopping place, then you also can not put the car. The intersection of carriageways for this is also not intended. As well as stopping minibuses. Must be at least 15 meters from the parking lot to it. Otherwise, the car will prevent buses and trolleybuses from driving to a stop. And, finally, the vehicle can not be put where it simply blocks some important road sign or, worse, the traffic. All this is fraught with rather big fines. So it's better to know what the traffic rules are. The rules of stopping and parking are the most important topic.

Punishment for parking where there is no need

Now we need to talk in more detail about where you can not park. Stopping and parking of vehicles is regulated rigidly. And if during the first driver is next to the vehicle, in the second case, he, as a rule, is excommunicated. And, leaving the parked car is not where it should be, you can, after returning, notice that the car there already is not. He was not hijacked - he just took the tow truck. Although now it is simply impossible not to be aware of the fact that this can happen. Since now except for signs "parking" is forbidden, under it the sign "the Evacuator works". To confuse the image is impossible with anything else. Because it flaunts the tow truck, taking away the machine.

This all is fraught with consequences for the motorist. Firstly, we will have to go for our car, which is clearly not included in its plans, to pay a fine for our oversight, to spend not too much time and not extra money. Therefore, it is better to be careful and spend ten minutes to find a "legal" place for parking, and not solve problems later.

Where you can not park

So, in the continuation of the above topic, it is worth to tell where else the traffic rules are forbidden to park. The rules for stopping and parking say the following: it is prohibited for a long period of time (which is considered to be 5 minutes or more for cars) to put the car outside the settlement on the roadway, which is indicated by the sign "Main road" (yellow diamond in a white frame, 2.1). And closer than fifty meters from the rail.

To be clearer, you need to clarify - the parking lot is called the intentional driver stopping the movement of his car. If he decided to park for five minutes - it's a stop. Parking takes longer. True, if the stop related to the landing of people (or their landing) or, perhaps, loading / unloading things was delayed, then there is nothing to worry about. Even if it lasts more than five minutes, you do not need to stop it - you have to finish it.

And, of course, you can not park there where it is, in principle, not allowed. This will now be discussed in more detail.

Layout

So, the above mentioned a little about the signs of parking and stops. SDA contain another important topic, and this is markup. There are some special "lines" that forbid the parking of private cars. Well, it is necessary to understand this and go back to the traffic rules.

Stopping and parking is prohibited on those road sections that are marked with a zigzag marking of yellow color. In these places can only park a taxi with the included taximeter and route facilities.

Cross the solid for parking, too, you can not - otherwise a fine of 500 rubles. Often a duplicate road sign is marked on the parking lot. Let's say the pointer "Place for the disabled". If a person ignores any rules and leaves his vehicle where it is not allowed, he faces a fine of 5,000 rubles.

Markup 1.4 (straight yellow line) is a "signal" that forbids anyone to stop at all. Intermittent, the same color, does not allow you to put the vehicle on the parking lot. That is, parking there is prohibited. If a person violates, he faces a fine of fifteen hundred rubles.

In general, as can be seen, stopping and parking of vehicles are prohibited by many markups and rules. Therefore, it is worthwhile to learn where everything is possible, and where it is impossible. It will not hurt.

Special situations

It happens that the person sitting behind the wheel has to stop the vehicle urgently. He was forced by circumstances. But if this happened, then he is obliged to take all possible measures to remove the car from the place where stopping and parking is prohibited. The action of the sign, if it is installed there, is not abolished by an emergency situation - one must understand this. But everything happens, therefore, in order not to introduce other motorists into confusion, a person should immediately turn on the alarm and put a "triangle" (ie, an emergency stop sign). In residential areas, this should be done at a distance of 15 meters. Outside the city should be put at least 30 meters.

What to do is forbidden

Talking about such a topic as stopping and parking of vehicles (SDA), it is worth noting still attention to what can not be done. Rule 12.7 states that even if you park, you can not open the doors of cars, if this in any way prevents other people involved in traffic. And it concerns not only the driver. Passengers also must comply with this requirement. Otherwise, all responsibility will fall on the shoulders of the one who sits behind the wheel. Therefore, before leaving the car, the passenger should notify the driver about it. And only after permission to leave. This is especially true for taxi drivers and taxi operators. Or rather for people who are in their salons. How many occasions when the driver has not stopped yet, but just braked (due to the fact that there was a traffic jam, you need to skip another motorist, etc.), and the passenger is already trying to get out of the car. For this, too, a fine is imposed, and on the one who is behind the wheel. It's not for nothing that the routeers refuse tearfully begging people "to slow down here." Stopping and parking in the settlements is allowed in specific places, so people do not need to get angry and scream - you just need to read the rules and be glad that the driver is neat and watchful.

Rules of behavior during parking

The last prescription (12.8) states that the driver has no right to leave the car without taking appropriate security measures. That is, if to express otherwise, it must ensure complete immobility of the car. Put on the handbrake, muffle, pick up the keys and lock the doors. This is advised to do, even if the parking lot is short-lived. Firstly, it is in the interests of the driver to do so (because in our modern age to steal someone else's car is a simple matter), and secondly, you can get a fine if you suddenly forget to put on the parking brake. The car will roll back and accidentally crash into the car, which fell on his way.

In general, as you can see, there are a lot of rules, but all of them are easy to remember if you make some efforts for this. And you need to know them. Firstly, when passing a theoretical examination in the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate it will come in handy, and secondly, it will definitely help in practice.
