What does the road sign two hammers mean?

Visibility of the sign is at least 100 m

So, to determine the requirements for the visibility of signs, it is necessary to refer to GOST R 52289-2004 “Technical means of organizing traffic”.

Question and Answer Is a fine issued in the absence of a sign legal?

In accordance with Article 4.3 “Rules for the use of road signs, markings, traffic lights, road barriers and guide devices”, signs and traffic lights are placed in such a way that they are perceived by the traffic participants for whom they are intended and are not obscured by any obstacles (advertising , green spaces, outdoor lighting poles, etc.).

Installation should ensure ease of use and reduce the likelihood of damage.

The document further states that on sections of roads where the markings defining the traffic mode are difficult to distinguish (snow, mud, etc.) or cannot be restored in a timely manner, signs corresponding in meaning are installed. And finally, the key provision, in my opinion, is formulated in article 5.1.4. and it sounds like this: “The visibility distance of the sign must be at least 100 m.”

Thus, the rules fully ensure the rights of drivers, establish guarantees for their observance, and also provide the grounds and procedure for canceling illegal and unjustified fines imposed in violation of the law.

Such different snowflakes

Please note that snowflakes on the road can be different:

with red border on a white background;
in a yellow triangle with a red border;
there is a blue snowflake in a white triangle with a red border;
snowflake or star in a rectangular white sign.

Of course, considering snowflakes in a rectangular sign does not apply to this material, but we will still answer that this option indicates that work is carried out only on weekends and holidays.

That is, if you see such signs, then they indicate that the signs above will only be valid on weekends and holidays.

Road sign 1.15 “Slippery road”

Road sign 1.15 “Slippery road” warns that there is a section of very slippery road ahead. Therefore, it is necessary to slow down and remember how to behave while driving on a slippery road.

Sign 1.15 is mainly used in winter. But I would like to note that in summer it can also be slippery. For example, when it starts to rain. Or in the morning hours, when the fog falls on the asphalt. And also in hot weather, when the binder comes to the surface of the asphalt.

So be careful all year round!

Warning sign 1.15 outside populated areas is installed at a distance of 150 - 300 m, in populated areas - at a distance of 50 - 100 m before the start of the dangerous section. If necessary, the sign can be installed at a different distance, which in this case is indicated on plate 8.1.1.

For simplicity, let's not consider “hammers”. Let’s just note that not only in Moscow (I won’t say for the whole of Russia) but also in some large cities of the Moscow Region, dedicated lanes marked with sign 5.14 were also equipped with a “brick” 3.1 hanging above this lane, with a “down arrow” sign. This created confusion among taxi drivers: are we allowed or not? Those who dared to check received a 500 ruble fine from the cameras for each case. TsAFAP inspectors explained that, by virtue of 3.1, these lanes are only suitable for route public transport, i.e. buses and trolleybuses, but taxis are not allowed, because although they are public, they are not route buses. Yes, that's right, not a route one. What do you think, if 3.1 hung without 5.14, what would that mean? This would mean exactly this: only route vehicles are allowed to move. But 3.1+5.14 is nonsense, two contradictory signs, and the traffic rules do not provide for this. Only the contradiction between a temporary sign and a permanent one is provided for—here priority goes to the temporary. The unfortunate combination 3.1 + 5.14, when both signs are constant: one allows the movement of someone else (in particular, taxis), except for trolleybuses, and the other prohibits it - this is stupidity and misleading the driver. Driving a taxi on a dedicated lane in this situation does not constitute an offense! Find in the traffic rules the text that the brick is most important. It's not there. I urge all taxi drivers who have suffered from this nonsense to complain to the Moscow prosecutor’s office about the actions of the Data Center and TsAFAP, to demand the cancellation of all decisions received, and the return of fines paid, if they have already been paid.

Is there a flaw in my arguments? Be that as it may, from the end of December 2015, the data processing center began removing bricks from all allocated areas in Moscow, and from January 2021 they were gone. Even electronic billboards appeared: “All legal taxis can move on all designated lanes in Moscow.”

Well, to hell with them and their allocated funds... I didn’t go anywhere and I don’t go... because I’m tired of replenishing the budget. On Leningradskaya in one place they hung some signs regarding the allocated area, and after 200 meters there are others hanging...

As for foreigners, I don’t see any problems. I was going to Finland by car, reading notes about their rules. They also have signs with the days of the week. Learned it. If I didn’t learn it, I wrote it down. If you don’t write it down, you’ll be fined once, then you’ll learn it right away. And with these dedicated cameras, I try to never go into them, just in case, otherwise the date or time on the camera will go wrong and then go prove that the shadow from the car is from the sun on the Sun, and not from the full moon on Mon. Well, if I have to stop by, I always make sure that the hammers are hanging.

Until now, speaking about additional information signs (or plates), we have noted the restrictions or additions they introduce, which relate to the distance, direction of action or type of vehicle.

In other words, the signs installed with these plates were effective on a certain section of the road, which was characterized by these three signs.

However, the Rules provide for a large group of signs that limit the effect of the signs installed with them according to a different criterion - time.

It is not at all difficult to guess that these signs indicate a certain period of time - either certain days of the week, or some chronological period. And a sign installed with one of these signs will only be valid for the specified period of time.

Let's look at the first sign - with a “red snowflake”. It is called "Saturdays, Sundays and holidays" (8.5.1). A “Red Snowflake” sign installed with any sign means that this sign will “work” only on weekends (Saturday, Sunday) and holidays. And never again.

Judging by the image, entry to this section of the road will be prohibited only on Saturdays, Sundays or public holidays (i.e. holidays prescribed in the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). On other days of the week (of which, by the way, there are much more), the ban on entry to the specified section of the road from this direction does not apply.

Or here's another example.

The combination of the sign we are interested in and the “Parking (parking space)” sign (6.4) means that parking on this section of the road will be allowed only on weekends and holidays. On weekdays, parking here is not allowed.

Thus, sign 8.5.1 “Saturdays, Sundays and holidays” (“red snowflake”) informs drivers that the effect of the sign installed with it will only apply to a specific period of time - on non-working days of the week.

If this information was useful to you, please write about it in the comments. If you have any questions, write, I will definitely try to help you.

Days of the week signs

The last three signs that will be discussed today indicate specific days of the week when the road sign installed above them is in effect:

- Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. In simple terms, this sign can be called “non-working days”. Those. it operates only when the population working a 5-day work week rests.

- work days. The sign is the opposite of the previous sign.

- days of the week. The sign indicates specific days of the week when drivers must heed the sign posted above it.

A similar combination was installed near one of the markets in the city of Ryazan, where pedestrians may appear on the roadway on weekends. However, on weekdays on this section of the road you can drive at a speed of 60 km/h.

The next article in the series will look at a few more additional information signs .

Signs for paid services, duration, parking with the engine not running.

Good afternoon, dear reader.

As part of the series of articles “Traffic Signs”, dedicated to a detailed study of current traffic rules, today we will consider the next group of signs and plates. Let me remind you that the signs have only additional meaning and should be used in conjunction with other road signs, the meaning of which they complement.

So, this article will cover the following road signs:

- Time of action.

— Method of parking the vehicle.

— Parking with the engine not running.

- Paid services.

— Limitation of parking duration.

Let's get started.

Validity sign

The “action time” sign is similar in meaning to the days of the week sign discussed earlier. Its meaning is that it indicates certain hours during which the sign installed above it is valid:

There are also combined signs that simultaneously indicate both the day of the week and the time of day:

— the sign is valid on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays from 8.00 to 17.30.

— the sign is valid on weekdays from 8.00 to 17.30.

— the sign is valid on Monday from 8.30 to 9.30.

For example, on the road you may encounter the following combination of road signs:

It prohibits stopping on Mondays from 8.30 to 9.30. This combination can be established, for example, if a section of road is cleaned weekly at the same time. I would like to note that stopping in the selected area at another time is not a violation of the rules and does not entail traffic police fines.

Sign on how to park a vehicle

The “Method of parking a vehicle” plate can be used in conjunction with only one road sign - parking space:

Please note that the first plate listed applies to any vehicle, and all other plates apply only to cars and motorcycles. Otherwise everything is very simple. The car must be parked near the sidewalk exactly as it is shown on the sign. By the way, the signs listed above are the only legal way to park a car on the sidewalk.

If you have never parked your car on the sidewalk before, I recommend that you carefully read the article “How to drive onto a curb?” It will help you avoid unnecessary troubles.

Let me also remind you that an article “Rules for stopping and parking” was previously published on pddmaster.ru. where the use of signs “Method of parking a vehicle” was discussed in detail. Well, in the analytical review by Anatoly (one of the readers of pddmaster.ru) you can learn about the peculiarities of stopping and parking cars in a sidewalk parking lot within the framework of imperfect Russian legislation.

Parking sign with engine not running

The parking sign with the engine not running can only be used in conjunction with sign 6.4 “Parking area”:

This combination means that parking is allowed only with the engine not running. For violation of this requirement, the driver will be subject to a warning or a fine of 500 rubles (Table of traffic police fines 2021).

Paid services sign

The “Paid parking duration limitation” sign indicates the maximum time that a vehicle can spend at a parking location:

A similar combination can be installed, for example, at airports, railway and bus stations, to eliminate delays in the parking of vehicles belonging to those greeting or seeing off.

Well, in the next article in the “Traffic Signs” series we will look at the next group of signs.

Good luck on the roads!
