New signs 2018
New sizes
The first innovation concerns the dimensions of the road signs used, including the existing ones. The current GOST allows the use of signs with standard sizes from 600 to 1,200 millimeters (in diameter or per side, if the sign is square, rectangular or triangular).
The new standard “in order to create a comfortable urban environment and improve visibility” recommends the use of signs of a size of 400 and 500 millimeters - they will be installed on roads with low speed limits and in dense buildings, and outside settlements - on unpaved roads and on single-lane roads. It is assumed that reducing the size of the sign will not affect its readability, but will improve appearance streets.
New signs
New stop and parking prohibition signs "are allowed to be installed perpendicular to the main road signs, including on the walls of buildings and fences."
Thus, when choosing a place to stop and park, now you will have to not only take into account existing conditions, such as odd or even days, but also inspect walls and fences for additional clarifications on which part of the street these restrictions apply.
The sign "entry to the intersection in the event of a traffic jam" was created for "for additional visual designation" of intersections with "waffle" markings 3.34d.
Thus, this is the third indication in the traffic rules prohibiting driving to a clogged intersection: after all, in addition to the above two, there is also paragraph 13.2 of the traffic rules, which says exactly this, and paragraph 12.13.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses provides for a fine of 1,000 rubles for this violation.
Reverse traffic signs are designed to indicate a section of the road where movement in any direction other than the reverse is prohibited.
Two such signs were introduced at once, but their scope seems to be very limited - so much so that the compilers of the Standard left them without illustrations.
The "dedicated tram lane" sign, like some others, performs a duplicative function: it can be installed above dedicated tram tracks in addition to the appropriate markings.
Its use may be justified in certain areas, for example, in winter time when the markings are hidden under a layer of snow.
Three more new signs indicate the direction movements for public transport .
Unlike other signs like the "lane for route vehicles" and variations of entering the road with it, which are designed to prevent violations of traffic rules by "ordinary" drivers, these signs are not entirely clear, since in fact they are addressed exclusively to drivers of the route vehicles themselves, who, even without them know their daily route. In other words, all other drivers simply do not need them.
A group of signs regulating the direction of movement along a lane or lanes replenishes the cohort of existing signs.
Moreover, the scope for creativity here is very wide, since the Standard “allows free arrangement of arrows depending on the trajectory and the number of directions of movement from the lane”, and on the arrows themselves “signs of additional information can be placed”.
The next group of signs are the signs indicating the beginning and end of the strip. The former, as well as traffic along the lanes, can have a different configuration and contain additional signs, and the latter, in contrast to signs 5.15.5 and 5.15.6 already in the SDA, contain information about the priority when streams merge.
Signs informing about the change to a parallel carriageway and the end of a parallel carriageway will be installed in addition to the usual "Give way" and "Main road" priority signs.
Theoretically, they should simplify the life of drivers in such areas - but the priority signs on them actually duplicate the existing ones, but in a smaller size, and only the scheme itself can provide new information to traffic participants. The only question is whether this information is needed to pass the site.
The combined stop sign and route indicator does not change anything in the life of drivers.
Its purpose is only to combine information in one sign, which is now divided into two separate ones - this will make life easier for public transport passengers, and the sign itself does not become more difficult for road users to perceive.
Additional signs denoting a pedestrian crossing legitimize special reflective frames around an existing sign - however, only at unregulated pedestrian crossings and at crossings located in places without artificial lighting or limited visibility.
On the one hand, this is logical - but on the other hand, given the quality of lighting on many city streets, and indeed the “painlessness” of these frames for perception and their great benefits, it would be possible to allow their use in certain areas within the city.
A couple more new signs related to pedestrian crossings indicate for drivers diagonal crosswalk.
The Standard's indication that these signs should replace the "regular" Pedestrian Crossing signs gives hope that there should not be more signs at major intersections. The sign itself is effective primarily in those conditions when the zebra is not visible on the road. By the way, for pedestrians, the new signs are supplemented with a special information plate indicating the possibility of crossing diagonally.
A very important and theoretically useful sign for drivers introduced by the new Standard - “ give in to everyone and you can go right».
Both the idea and its trial implementation are not new - an experiment on the application of such a rule was carried out several years ago. Judging by the fact that the mark also appeared in the new preliminary Standard, the results turned out to be rather positive, and the mark has a chance to become permanent.
A series of signs that looks good and bad at the same time is " direction of traffic at the next intersection».
Both good and bad in these signs are obvious: on the one hand, they facilitate orientation on multi-lane roads for drivers who are not familiar with them, allowing them to pre-occupy the correct lane for traffic, and on the other hand, this large canvas will be installed above the signs "direction traffic lanes” that regulate traffic at the current intersection. That is, instead of one large block of signs above the intersection, two will hang - and at least at first this will make it difficult to perceive.
Bicycle zone– innovation of the preliminary Standard. The sign will be installed on sections where "only pedestrians and cyclists are allowed to move in cases where pedestrians and cyclists are not separated into independent flows" and "vehicles are allowed to enter."
This sign differs from the existing sign 4.5.2, indicating a cycle path with combined traffic (in particular, a complete ban on the movement of cars and a mandatory marked start and end).
A huge layer of new signs introduced by the new Standard concerns parking. First, the signs paid parking"combined the existing signs 6.4 and 8.8, and to designate paid parking for some reason they introduced as many as two equivalent signs. Sign " disabled parking", Fortunately, remained in the only version, but it was also obtained by combining the sign 6.4 and 8.17.
Off street parking now it is also indicated by its own signs - intuitive, but also duplicated.
Combined parking sign with additional plates 8.6.1 - 8.6.9 and for the signs " parking with a way to park the vehicle"- this is done" to save space and materials. In addition, herringbone parking has appeared here - and also in as many as two equivalent variations.
Two signs now indicate parking with an indication number of parking spaces.
Here, the number of signs is obviously justified by the type of parking - paid or free.
But even that didn't seem enough. By analogy with the above-mentioned stop and parking prohibition signs, new signs were also introduced directions for parking, which "are allowed to be installed perpendicular to the main road signs, including on the walls of buildings and fences." In general, there are much more reasons to look around and look around walls and fences.
Well, the last part of the new preliminary Standard contains new signs of additional information - information plates. Yes, the sign time limit» is installed in addition to parking signs and can contain any required time.
The seasonality of certain signs may be indicated by the sign " months».
Under sign 6.4 "Parking (parking space)" in cases where the width of the parking spaces is less than 2.25 m, there will now be a sign " width limit”, indicating the maximum allowed width of a car allowed to park - that is, owners of large cars should brush up on their knowledge by checking the exact width of their vehicle in the owner's manual.
Now, a quarter of a century after the approval of Russian traffic rules, they have a sign "deaf pedestrians", which has become a pair of the already existing sign 8.15 "Blind pedestrians". Surprise is caused not so much by the appearance of this sign, but by the moment of its appearance - was it really not necessary before?
Another new sign to be seen with the introduction of the Pre-Standard is the sign with the vague name " Vehicle type". Together with sign 6.4 "Parking (parking space)", it will create specialized parking lots for tourist buses where necessary.
Practical use
So far, all these signs will be used only in three cities of federal significance: in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Sevastopol. The experiment will last until November 2020, after which the traffic police will draw conclusions, which is more from new system- benefit or confusion.
As soon as your baby starts walking further than the playground near the house, he will certainly notice the road signs. The most common signs for children are: “Pedestrian crossing”, “Children”, “Tram stop”, “Bus stop”, “No entry”. An inquisitive child will see other signs, because sometimes you have to travel with dad or mom.
I believe that it is necessary to teach a child about road signs from an early age. From what? Yes, since the baby will cross the road with you or drive a car. Why not tell the child about what a "Zebra" is and why there is a beautiful sign a man walking along the stripes. By the time the child begins to walk Kindergarten and in first grade, he will already know the most basic road signs.
Today I want to show you pictures of "Road Signs". A detailed and simple explanation will be provided for each picture with a sign.
Pictures for children - Road signs
"Crosswalk" is an information sign.
He points to the place of the ground crossing of the carriageway of the street. Such a sign is installed near the special markings for pedestrians - "zebras".
Pay attention to the child that there is another similar sign, but triangular. It is a warning (triangular) sign, which is also called "Crosswalk". It does not designate a crossing point for pedestrians, but warns the driver that a crossing is approaching.
"Underground pedestrian crossing" is an informational sign. This sign indicates the location of the underpass of the carriageway of the street. Installed near the entrance to the transition.
If you have an underground passage on your way to kindergarten or school, be sure to show it to your child.
"Tram stop"- it is also an informational sign. He informs and points out to us that public transport stops at this place.
Parents should explain to the child that this road sign, like the previous one, is important for both pedestrians and drivers.
The pedestrian on it will find out where the stop is, and the driver will be attentive, because there may be people (and especially children) at the stops.
When talking about this sign, be sure to repeat to the child how the kids should behave at the bus stop (you can’t run, jump out onto the roadway).
"Bus stop"- it is also an informational sign. He informs and points out to us that the bus stops at this place.
This sign is installed close to the landing area - the place of waiting for transport for passengers.
"Bicycle lane" is a prescriptive sign. Permits movement only on bicycles and mopeds. Other modes of transport are not allowed to enter it. Pedestrians can also move along the cycle path if there is no sidewalk or footpath.
If your child already knows how to ride a bike, then you should explain to him that he can ride his bike only in the courtyard of the house. And the one where there is such a sign.
The bike paths are designed specifically for cyclists. Perhaps your city has such areas for cycling.
"Footpath"- prescribing sign. Sometimes on the streets they arrange such a special path, designed for pedestrians only.
On this path, you must follow the general rules of behavior for pedestrians: keep to the right; do not interfere with other pedestrians.
Children should be taught not to play games on footpath, sledding. Cycling on the footpath is also prohibited.
"No entry" is a prohibition sign. All prohibition signs are red.
This sign prohibits the entry of any vehicles, including bicycles, on the section of the road in front of which it is installed.
It does not apply only to public transport, the routes of which pass through this section. The cyclist, having seen this sign, must get off the bike and drive it along the sidewalk, observing the rules for the movement of pedestrians.
Remind your child that if he carries his own bike and does not ride it, then he is considered a pedestrian.
"Bicycles are not allowed"- another prohibition sign.
This sign prohibits the movement of bicycles and mopeds. It is installed in places where it can be dangerous to ride a bicycle.
Usually this sign is placed on streets with a lot of traffic.
It should be remembered that cycling is prohibited on motorways, even if there is no prohibition sign.
I believe that every child should know this sign and the rules related to cycling, because children love to ride so much and, if possible, they will want to drive along the road.
"Children"- warning sign.
This sign warns the driver about possible appearance children on the road. It is installed near a children's institution, for example, a school, a health camp, a playground.
But parents should warn the child that this sign does not indicate a place for children to cross the road! Therefore, a pedestrian child must cross the street in a place where pedestrian crossing is allowed and there is a corresponding sign.
"No Pedestrians"- prohibition sign.
This sign prohibits the movement of pedestrians. It is installed in places where walking can be dangerous.
This sign is often used to temporarily restrict the movement of pedestrians, for example, while roadworks are being carried out or the facades of houses are being repaired.
It should be remembered that pedestrian traffic is always prohibited on motorways and carriageways, even if a prohibition sign is not installed.
Of course, this article does not cover all road signs. But the ones you see in our pictures are the signs most often seen by pedestrians.
If you want to teach your child all the signs, you can download a picture and print each road sign. With the help of these homemade road signs, you can play with your child, and at the same time teach him.
Just cut out the signs, stick them to matches or toothpicks, place them in prepared plasticine holders and place them on the toy track.
Let the kid roll his own car and tell you what kind of signs he meets on the way.
Road signs are an integral attribute of roads, carrying all the information necessary for drivers: a warning about danger, speed limits, repair work, and much more. The study of road signs is necessary for all road users, since not only drivers can be the culprits of an accident, but also illiterate pedestrians, cyclists, etc.
If you are just going to become a driver and are preparing to pass exams, then you simply need to study road signs, because traffic police tickets contain questions on this topic. Here you will find all the most up-to-date information for 2015 according to road signs.
First of all, you should know that road signs are divided into groups.
Group 1 - warning signs starting with the number "1". The signs of this group are designed to carry information for drivers, for example, about approaching a dangerous section of the road, narrowing of the carriageway, road crossing, etc.
Group 2 - priority signs starting with the number "2". A group of these signs informs about the distribution of priorities when passing through intersections and narrow parts of the road, for example, a sign of the main road, an intersection with a secondary road, etc.
Group 3 - prohibition signs starting with the number "3". The signs of this group carry information about the prohibitions in force on a given section of the road, for example, a ban on the movement of certain vehicles, prohibited overtaking, parking, stopping, etc.
Group 4 - prescriptive signs, beginning with the number "4". The signs of this group oblige vehicles to move only in a certain direction, and also limit the minimum speed, etc.
Group 5 signs - signs of special requirements starting with the number "5". The signs of this group serve to designate a residential area, pedestrian crossings, zones of artificial unevenness, etc.
Group 6 - information signs starting with the number "6". The signs of this group carry information about road numbers, parking lots, etc.
Group 7 - service marks starting with the number "7". They carry information about cafes, hotels, gas stations, etc. available on the track.
Group 8 - signs of additional information starting with the number "8". They are needed to indicate on the road the beginning and end of the operation of the signs under which the plate is placed, as well as to indicate the method of parking, etc.
9 group of characters - identification marks. These signs are designed to inform drivers that dangerous goods, children, etc. are being transported in this vehicle.
In order to better master road signs, we recommend watching a training video on this topic. Good luck on the roads!
How much road signs mean to motorists, because there are more and more cars on the roads every day, so non-compliance with traffic rules is not uncommon now. Signs - are an integral part, they help drivers navigate the roads. Your safety and the safety of others on the road will depend on compliance with traffic signs. But not all car owners follow the rules of the road, and some sometimes do not even know what this or that sign means. To be more literate on the road and not get into various unpleasant situations, you must be able to read traffic signs. We will consider some of these signs in this article, and in order to make it easier for you to remember, we will look at traffic signs in pictures.
To date, according to traffic rules, there are eight sections of traffic signs:
Each group of signs carries its own meaning, which is immediately evident from the name.
Road signs and their designations
Here we will consider each group of signs separately, and what they carry in themselves.
1.20.1 - 1.20.3 "Narrowing of the road"
Narrowing on both sides - 1.20.1, on the right - 1.20.2, on the left - 1.20.3.
This sign indicates a narrowing of the road on both sides or one of the lanes and warns the driver to slow down and be attentive to oncoming traffic so as not to create a traffic accident. These signs are installed in front of the areas where repair work, in front of narrowed bridges.
Also, recently there have been a lot of drivers who ignore the prohibitory traffic light sign and do not think about the consequences, especially if a pedestrian crosses the road at that time. For this violation, a fine of up to 1000 rubles is also provided, and if this leads to a tragedy and deprivation of vaults.
Priority signs
The next group of road signs are priority signs, which differ from warning signs, they are different in shape, color and meaning. All signs that are included in this group are designed to determine the order of passage of intersections or intersections of individual carriageways, or narrow sections of roads and carry the meaning of "give way" or "advantage on the road." this sign can lead to a serious accident, as such signs are installed where it will be difficult for cars to pass. In this group there are 13 characters that are easy to remember.
These two signs mean for the driver that he has advantages over other road users moving in the oncoming lane or from secondary roads. 
2.3.2 - 2.3.7 "Adjacency of a minor road".
Adjacency on the right - 2.3.2, 2.3.4, 2.3.6, on the left - 2.3.3, 2.3.5, 2.3.7.
2.3.1 "Intersection with a secondary road."
On these signs, the main road is marked with a thick line in the center, and the secondary road is marked with a thin line adjacent to the main road. This sign warns drivers moving on a secondary road that when entering the main road, you need to give way to a vehicle moving on the main one.
Mandatory road signs provide for a certain action of the road user, in particular, they indicate the direction of movement, that is, the movement is only in the direction indicated on the road sign, and the minimum speed limit.
This type of signs defines for a vehicle on such roads as a motorway, a reverse road, one-way roads. Roads at the entrance to settlements, where the beginning of the settlement is indicated and where there is a restriction speed limit. If at the entrance to the settlement there is no limiting speed limit sign, then the speed should not exceed 60 km per hour. Sign 5.1 "Motorway" is installed on roads with a maximum allowable speed of 110 km per hour; on other roads that do not pass through populated areas, the permitted speed is 90 km per hour. Sign 5.20 "artificial unevenness" is usually installed in front of pedestrian crossings, so that the driver slows down.
Road signs carry this or that information for all road users, but there is also a group of signs that carry only information.
This is a type of signs that inform road users about the direction of movement on the road, where settlements are located, how to get to them. So, for example, sign 6.10 indicates the direction and distance to the settlement, this sign can also indicate the direction to museums, reserves. These signs also indicate the direction of the streets, how to get to them, detour routes in case of road repairs. There are signs for pedestrians with the designation of pedestrian crossings and information about bus stops and route numbers.
These signs tell drivers and pedestrians where the hospital, car wash, gas station, telephone, catering, hotels and motels, toilet. That is, at the direction of these signs, you can find where you can refuel your car, stop for the night, get. This is especially important for drivers who go to long way and travel to unfamiliar places.
Additional Information Signs
Such marks clarify or limit the effect of the marks with which they are applicable. Very often we see signs 8.5.4 - 8.5.7 "Validity time", which indicate the time of day when the sign is valid, basically, it can be found near houses, shops when parking a car. We often see sign 8.15 “Blind pedestrians” next to the pedestrian crossing sign, it indicates that blind people can cross in this place and the driver needs to be more careful, because this person needs more time to cross the road.
From July 1, 2013, we will have another additional information sign "Photo-video fixation", which will indicate that on this section of the road automatic shooting of traffic violations will be carried out by automatic means of photo-video fixation.
In this article, we examined traffic signs and their designations, it is better to navigate the road, both for beginners and experienced drivers. Obey traffic signs, safety on the roads depends on this.
