Road sign settlement on a blue background. “No Parking” sign: features, coverage areas

Almost every modern driver has experience driving outside the boundaries of his “home” city. Obviously, in this case completely different rules of conduct on the road begin to apply. Not that they were used separate rules traffic, but some sections of them have been adjusted due to high-speed travel conditions. In particular, every motorist knows that within the city limits it is allowed to drive at a speed of no higher than 60 km/h (and even then not in all areas), while outside it on the highway this limit rises to 90. In order to differentiate these two zones use the road sign " Locality”, establishing secretly speed limits for movement. About what they are, where they are installed, about the coverage area and legal aspects Let's try to understand their applications further.

Form and general provisions

If you refer to the current Traffic Rules Russian Federation, then the signs mentioned above can be found in the information and directional category. Their main purpose is to inform drivers, pedestrians and other road users about the location of nearby settlements and other infrastructure facilities. In addition, some of them are used to organize the direction of movement (for example, at intersections, on broadband roads) or its modes (setting priority speed).

A special feature of the signs “Beginning of a settlement” is a combination of informational and indicative qualities, which automatically classifies them as an independent group of special instructions. IN new edition Traffic regulations and information signs are divided into two categories - informational and special regulations. In this context, it turns out that they simultaneously perform two functions:

1. They inform the driver about the approach to a certain city or town along the direction of the vehicle’s movement or its end.
2. Separate speed limits are introduced on designated sections of the road.

The group includes three main signs, each of which is paired (one conventionally indicates the beginning of a settlement, and the second its end):

• the Settlement sign on a white background is numbered in the Traffic Rules as 5.23.1. On the surface of a rectangular plate white you can find the letter name of the city/town itself. It is duplicated by the sign “End of a populated area” (5.24.1), visually repeating the base 5.23.1, but it has a red line that crosses out the name diagonally;

• sign “Image of a populated area” 5.23.2 and duplicate 5.24.2. Has the same White background and the same shape as the previous one, but instead of the name of a specific locality, it contains the contours and outlines of several buildings closely located to each other;

• "Settlement" sign on blue background (serial number in Traffic Regulations 5.25) and its duplicate version (5.26), indicating the end of the coverage area special regime movement, is in form and content a complete analogue of the first group. The main visual difference is that the sign is used of blue color, and the contour border and the name of the settlement are white.

As for the sizes of these signs, they are fully regulated state standard Russian Federation GOST R 52290-2004. It standardizes, first of all, the height of the font used to display the name of the locality. It is selected from the approved range from 75 to 500 mm. This range of sizes is due to the fact that in both the old and new editions of the standard there is a gradation of sizes from small (I) to very large (IV). Accordingly, each of the standard sizes is used in suitable road conditions. For example, smaller letters are applicable within the city limits or on its border, while large ones are forced to be used in highway conditions, where the situation needs to be assessed in advance.

In addition, during production, one should take into account the fact that the signs of the first and third groups belong to the category of individual design objects. This is due to the fact that each settlement has in its name different quantities letters, which forces us to make a sign of different lengths (with conditionally the same height). At the same time, 5.23.2 and 5.24.2 do not belong to this category and their dimensions in height and length have the same ratio for all four categories.

Why are there so many signs?

Many people who are far from automotive affairs, and even drivers, often have a question: why use as many as six road signs to indicate the beginning and end of populated areas instead of two? The question, of course, is logical on the one hand, but in the legal field everything is not obvious. The fact is that the concept of a populated area from the point of view of the Traffic Rules and the same geography, that is, common sense and logic, which guides the majority of those asking, can be very different.

For example, in administrative-territorial terms, the boundaries of a city and a village are tied to geographical coordinates, cadastral plan etc. If we completely simplify this issue, then let’s say that the village ends where the border of the last house, fence or garden is.

At the same time, the Traffic Rules of the Russian Federation, as well as those of the rest of the world, tie city boundaries to main, regional, and local roads passing directly through or near a populated area. Exactly last statement and becomes the reason that in practice as many as three groups of signs are used instead of one, but more on that later.

Signs on white background

Let's consider a situation where a car is moving behind in this direction approaches a city or town along a road that directly crosses it lengthwise from beginning to end, that is, formally crossing the city limits, the car enters a section of the road where, by definition, traffic rules begin to apply auto Vehicle in populated areas.

This means the presence of intersections, traffic lights, pedestrian crossings, etc. along the route. Here, of course, you will have to deal with a lot of markings regulating traffic, but the main thing is why a road sign Settlement on a white background will be installed at the beginning of the city current restriction maximum speed at 60 km/h. The coverage area of ​​such a sign does not extend, as in most cases, to the section of the road up to next intersection, and ends exactly where the duplicate sign is (5.24.1).

Signs on a blue background

If the route passes near a populated area, conditionally not through the center, but away from the main area, then most often it will be established blue sign settlement, and there is no point in limiting the speed from 90 (or 110 for highways) to 60 km/h. It can also be used if the road runs within a city or town. Then an indispensable condition for the operation of highway speed limits should be the presence of bump stops on the roadsides and in the central part separating the directions of vehicle movement. It should also be mentioned that, according to GOST R 52290-2004, if there is a need to install such a sign on a highway, then its background is changed from blue to green.

However, in 2013, a third pair of road signs on a white background were introduced, namely "Dense Development" (5.23.2) and "End Dense Development" (5.24.2). If the first of them is installed after the Settlement road sign on a blue background, then it automatically sets the speed limit to 60 km/h, as in city limits.

international experience

In addition to the fact that motorists have to travel far and wide domestic roads, some of them have the opportunity or need to travel abroad in a personal or corporate car. And here a logical question arises - “are there signs for limiting speed limits in populated areas, like in Russia?” As an example, we can take the experience of the closest former USSR EU countries - Poland.

Many motorists know that the speed of a car in a populated area and outside it are different. In particular, outside the city limits on the highway, driving at a speed of no more than 90 km per hour, and within a populated area no more 60 km per hour. The peculiarity of these signs is that they do not correspond to geographical indicators. Their installation has an informative purpose, and knowledge of the symbols is mandatory for every driver.

Important! The “settled area” sign is installed in order to distinguish between traffic rules and speed limit within the settlement and beyond it.

The meaning of the locality

According to traffic rules, a populated area is a territory that is built up residential buildings, entry and exit to which is indicated special signs: sign "beginning of settlement" and sign "end of settlement".

The main meaning of these signs is informing drivers, as well as pedestrians, about the location of populated areas that are found on the road. Also, the "settlement" sign is used at intersections to indicate the correct direction of movement.

According to traffic rules, there are signs: special instructions or informative. Thus, the sign “name of a locality”:

The signs are paired and differ only in that the “end of settlement” signs are always crossed out with a red line.

Did you know? In Europe (for example, in Poland) there are only two types of signs indicating a populated area. This is a sign of dense buildings and indicates settlement and its end.

Locality, general rules

According to the traffic rules in the populated area and on all roads that pass through it, the speed limit for transport is as follows:

• buses that transport groups of children, cars with trailers and motorcycles - 80 km/h;
• vehicle with drivers with up to 2 years of driving experience - up to 70 km/h;
• trucks that carry passengers in the back - up to 60 km/h;
• buses (except minibuses) - up to 90 km per hour;
• other vehicles: on a road marked with a “populated area” sign - up to 60 km/h.

Important!In order not to break the speed limit traffic rules in populated areas, you need to know what the settlement sign on a white background means, as well as the blue settlement sign. This will help you immediately determine whether a change in speed limit is necessary or not.

Traffic in a populated area with blue background

The blue 5.25 "settled area" sign means that the rules adopted in populated areas regarding speed limits in this area do not apply. It is duplicated by the same sign 5.26, only crossed out with a red line. According to traffic rules, if a motorist passes the name of a settlement on a blue background, the speed does not need to be reduced, since the speed limit is 90 km per hour. Be sure to pay attention to the signs that may appear after it - there may be a speed limit.

Traffic in a populated area on a white background

The sign itself is quite easy to recognize: the white rectangular plate contains the letter name of the city or town. It is duplicated by the same sign, only crossed out diagonally by a red line - “end of a populated area” 05.24.1.

A town sign on a white background 5.23.1 warns that the speed limit is changing. Now the driver can drive no more than 60 km per hour. But if the city has a special permit sign, then the speed may vary.

Sign for the beginning of dense development

Sign “Image of a populated area” 5.23.2 and its duplicate 5.24.2. has a white background and shape like sign 5.23.1. It differs in that instead of a letter name it depicts the outlines of buildings adjacent to each other.

This sign is used to designate a section of the road with construction that is not part of a populated area - suburban village, enterprises, facilities under construction, etc. The city road sign on a white background is installed: at the beginning and at the border of residential development, at secondary entrances at a distance of more than 500 m.

Did you know?All signs are made of galvanized metal with double flanging for rigidity, 1 mm thick.

Thus, the “populated area” sign is very important for every driver, regardless of the type of vehicle. It carries information about the location of the motorist himself and that there will now be intersections, traffic lights, sidewalks on his way, which means that the speed of movement is changing.

The rules provide for different speed limits depending on where the road lies: within the city and village or outside it. So that the driver can clearly know and comply with the permitted speed, three road signs have been introduced, and accordingly, the same number canceling their actions.

Locality signs

Signs “beginning of a populated area” perform 2 tasks:

• They warn the driver about approaching a settlement or about leaving it.
• Put into action provided for by the rules, speed limits.

A completely predictable question arises: what do these signs prescribe and how do they differ. The boundaries of a settlement in the traffic rules do not coincide with our ideas.

For a person, the end of a settlement is where the houses or other buildings end. And traffic rules extend borders to main, regional, local roads that pass through the settlement or near it.

Signs on white background

If a car is moving along a road that leads to a populated area, then information signs will be installed at the entrance:

• with the name of the locality in black letters on a white background 23.1;
• sign with a graphic image of a settlement 23.2.

For the driver, this means that the rules provided for populated areas begin to apply. Signs warn that there will be intersections, traffic lights and pedestrian crossings along the way. The main thing is that the sign obliges reduce speed to the maximum allowed in urban areas - 60 kilometers per hour. Thus, all sections and traffic rules with the words “in a populated area” refer to highway immediately after this pointer. They will operate until signs 5.24.1, 5.24.2 that cancel them are encountered along the way.

Sign 5.23.2 depicting dense buildings differs from 5.23.1 in that there is no indication of the name of the city or town. And one is installed if there is a building along the road that does not belong to any populated area.

Signs on a blue background

A sign with the name of a city or town written in white on a blue background is also mounted near a populated area, but if you follow this road, you will not get there. Therefore, the driver must follow the rules outside the settlements. Function of the sign: to inform that since the settlement is not far away, pedestrians may be encountered along the way.

If the sign is located in a populated area, then the speed limit is the same as on a highway. In this case, the road must be equipped with bumpers along the road and in the center to separate road lanes. If there is a sign under the sign depicting dense buildings (5.23.2), then it prescribes speed limit up to 60 km/h.

Frequent misconceptions of drivers

After amendments were made to the traffic rules in 2013, many drivers have a question: at what speed are they allowed to drive behind the blue and white “beginning of a populated area” sign. Someone suggests - just like in the settlement, someone thinks that at a speed of 90 km/h. And both of these answers are wrong.

In amendments to traffic rules related to speed limits, it is allowed speed 110 km/h if oncoming lanes outside the territory of a populated area are separated by a lawn, a bumper, or it is a road with markings. The sign in question does not prohibit this speed. A if there is a sign of dense buildings underneath it, then the speed must be reduced to 60 km/h.

Failure to comply with the speed limit leads to administrative responsibility in the form of a fine. Its magnitude will depend on how much the speed is exceeded. According to the new rules, the fine is set up to 5 thousand rubles. Exceeding more than 80 km/h will entail deprivation of rights for driving a car. Drivers, especially in big cities, you should be prepared for the fact that the speed is recorded not only by traffic police officers, but also by an automatic video recording system.

Knowing and following the rules will help you avoid road accidents, material costs, and sometimes even save human life.
