Comments on priority road signs. Traffic rules priority signs for road traffic Priority signs regulating pedestrian traffic on the road

Priority signs establish the order of passage through intersections or intersections of roadways, as well as narrow sections of the road. That is, they determine who has the right of way and who must give way.

Note that road signs have only three shapes: triangular with a base at the bottom, round and rectangular. And only three signs have a different shape - “an inverted triangle with the base at the top, a square and an octagon placed on the corner. All these unusually shaped signs are priority signs. And the original shape is needed so that the driver can unmistakably recognize such a sign “from the back” that is, from the reverse side. This is important when driving through intersections, when it is necessary to determine who has priority and who must give way.

Priority signs are the only group of signs that are canceled traffic light or traffic controller. That is If the traffic light is working, then the priority signs do not work.

Let us remind you that the main road is always a highway in relation to the adjacent road, and also the main road is a paved road in relation to a dirt road and any road in relation to the exit from the adjacent territory (link - Main road. (you need to know this by heart!)

In addition, the main road may be clearly marked with a "Main Road" sign. The road marked with this sign may pass through several intersections or junctions of roads. That is, the effect of the “main road” sign does not end at the nearest intersection.

The main road ends with an "end of main road" sign.


Cars on the main road have priority over cars on the secondary road; they will pass the intersection first. Cars on the secondary road must yield to them.

If a car at an intersection does not drive straight, but turns, it must first follow the priority signs, and then take into account the obstacle on the right. A car on a secondary road cannot interfere with a car on the main road on the right.


"Main road" and "give way" signs may be equipped with a "Main Road Direction" sign - in case the main road changes direction at an intersection.
In the illustration: the main road turns right, as indicated by the signs. Thus, The first cars to cross the intersection will be those entering it from the main road. Moreover, it does not matter which trajectory he will take - further along the main road, or he will move onto a secondary one. Only one fact matters: he entered the intersection from the main road or not.
Two cars entering an intersection on a main road follow the "interference on the right" rule. Thus, the first one to cross the intersection will be the one who has no obstacle on the right. This is car number 2. Car No. 1 will follow him. And only after it will the remaining cars leave the secondary road. Guided among themselves by the same rule of “interference from the right.”

The main road may also be marked with "intersection with minor road" and "junction with minor road" signs. This sign only applies to one intersection..

Give way sign

Installed at intersections and junctions of a secondary road with the main one. The driver is obliged to give way to a car moving on an intersecting or main road.

Stop sign

Installed in front of railway crossings and medical quarantine posts. Obliges the driver to stop before the stop line, and if there is none, before the sign.
In addition, stop signs are installed at intersections and junctions of a secondary road with the main one. In this case, the driver is obliged to give way to a car moving along an intersecting or main road. In this case, a stop is required.
The driver must stop before the stop line, and if there is none, before the edge of the intersecting roadway, that is, already inside the intersection.


Sign "Distance to object"

The sign is installed only together with the “give way” sign and warns that there is an intersection or junction with a “Stop” sign ahead.
A stop sign can be installed at railroad crossings and quarantine posts, while a yield sign can only be installed at intersections. Thus, the combination of these two signs warns that there is an intersection ahead with a stop sign.

Signs “Give way to oncoming traffic” and “Take advantage of oncoming traffic” regulate the passage of a narrow section of the road. The round sign “Give way to oncoming traffic” obliges the driver to give way to oncoming traffic.


The “steep descent” and “steep ascent” signs have a similar effect, which in narrow places on the road oblige a driver moving downhill to give way to a car moving uphill.



The material is presented on the basis of a program developed by teachers

Priority signs are an important part of traffic rules. Using them, drivers navigate difficult places: areas under repair, various intersections, crossroads and narrowings. Who goes first and who waits - all this is regulated by the indicated group of signs. Let's take a closer look at the traffic priority signs, pictures with explanations.

2.1 “Main Road” sign

At intersections where there are no traffic lights, it regulates which part of the intersection is the main road. Vehicles moving along it travel first. Outside populated areas (villages, cities, etc.), parking within the radius of the “Main Road” is prohibited.

The radius covers the entire intersection, no matter how many intersections it contains, and sometimes ends at sign 2.2 (see below).

To increase the information content, it is supplemented with the sign 8.13. On it, the main one is marked with a black thick line indicating the trajectory of movement along it.

Installed at intersections:

  • immediately upon entry;
  • behind him; then it acts on a piece of the path, including the nearest intersection.

2.2 Sign “End of main road”

Informs that you need to let vehicles pass at the nearest road intersection, since the driver is already driving along a secondary road.

Sometimes 2.4 is added - “Give way”. Means: it is necessary to freely let through traffic traveling in the main direction. And only then move on and perform maneuvers.

When no such addition is observed, the intersection roads are equal. A car (or other traffic participant) driving on the right is allowed to pass.

Located near a road intersection.

Priority signs 2.3.1 to 2.3.7

They operate under the same placement rules, range, and restrictions. They differ only in the angle formed by the secondary and main directions:

2.3.2, 2.3.4 and 2.3.6– right-hand junction of the secondary track;

2.3.3, 2.3.5 and 2.3.7– the same, but left-handed;

sign 2.3.1- they intersect.

They are placed before reaching the intersection:

  • 50–100 meters within a populated area (village, etc.);
  • in other versions - 150–300 meters.

The signs of the considered group are placed when the intersection or junction is difficult to see for those who are driving due to the relief features of the area.

2.4 “Give way” sign

It means that the traffic participant is ordered to slow down and let traffic traveling along the main road pass, and not interfere with it.

This sign is supplemented by several more:

  • sign 2.2 – end of the main one.
  • sign 8.13 – explains the trajectory of the main road.
  • sign 8.1.1 – informs about the distance to the intersection where the driver will need to give way. Then the complementary sign (2.4) will stand straight when entering the intersection.
  • sign 8.1.2– also reports the distance to the intersection, but with a note that driving through the intersection without stopping and looking around is prohibited. In this case, the traffic participant will see a second sign - 2.5, calling for a stop.

Sign 2.4 is placed as the main one before the intersection, or before it - as a backup sign.

2.5 Sign “Driving without stopping is prohibited”

Octagonal, different in shape from all other signs. Notifies the driver of the requirement to stop driving near the STOP line, and in cases where it is not provided, before crossing. If at the same time you come across a railway crossing that is not equipped with a barrier, and there is no line, you need to stop near the sign.

Located:

  • near the intersection;
  • near the railway crossing.

Signs 2.6 and 2.7

2.6 temporary 2.6

Indicate the presence of a tight space where vehicles traveling towards each other need to pass each other.

sign 2.6 "Advantage of oncoming traffic" says to let oncoming traffic pass;

sign 2.7 "Advantage over oncoming traffic" allows you to enter a tight space first.

They are installed when driving onto narrow bridges, in situations of road repair and on other narrowings (including on mountain serpentine roads).

  1. In most cases, a tram should be allowed to pass, even if its rails are a secondary road and it exits onto the main one.
  2. Priority signs cease to operate when there is a working traffic light, or if traffic is controlled by a traffic controller.

Compliance with priority signs is the key to preventing emergency situations.

Video: Traffic rules Traffic priority signs with explanations

The group of priority road signs is one of the smallest, but quite important. They regulate the order of passage of intersections, the order in places where traffic lights are not installed or there is no traffic controller. In other words, priority signs determine when it is necessary to give way and when it is possible to pass first. They must be followed in order to prevent an emergency and not create a safety hazard for drivers and pedestrians.

This group consists of 13 symbols, which have serial numbers starting with the number 2. In the traffic rules, priority signs are listed with comments. So, having studied the rules, it will not be difficult to understand their effect. You can also find on the Internet the priority group of traffic signs in pictures and with explanations.

These signs determine the rules of passage, taking into account which road they are located on - on the main or secondary road. Depending on the situation, the motorist must react and reduce speed in advance or perform another maneuver.

The general significance lies in the need to organize traffic in areas where other control means are insufficient to optimize the flow.

Road priority signs come in different forms:

  1. Yellow diamonds with a white frame indicate which road is the main one and where it ends (2.1–2.2.).
  2. White triangles with a red frame indicate types of intersections. They talk about the location of main and adjacent roads (2.3.1–2.3.7).
  3. A white triangle, upside down, indicates the advantage of one driver over another (2.4).
  4. The requirement to stop before an intersection is indicated by an octagonal red sign with the inscription “STOP” (2.5).
  5. Signs that regulate the flow of cars with oncoming traffic look like a white circle with a red frame (2.6) and a blue rectangle (2.7) with arrows.

Often priority indicators are installed in combination with additional designations. For example, " can be set together with the symbol . It is also often located with a sign requiring you to stop.

The location of the signs is determined by the territory of their operation. Installation procedures outside populated areas and within city limits may vary slightly.

Any motorist needs to clearly know the meaning of priority signs and installation rules. But remember that legislators periodically make changes to road rules, so before studying the information, make sure it is up to date.

List of priority signs with descriptions for 2018

Signs that determine the priority of drivers on the roads are established by the Government of the Russian Federation (Resolution No. 1090 of October 23, 1993), and are numbered in accordance with GOST R 52289-2004. Let's look at a detailed description of each.

the main road

Tells the motorist about entering an uncontrolled intersection where he has the right of way. It applies to the entire length of the intersection or intersection.

When following the sign, remember that there is more than one entrance in the area regulated by this sign. When two cars pass, the advantage is determined by the obstacle on the right. This means that you need to yield to vehicles located on the right hand side of the driver. Often the designation is combined with a complementary sign indicating the direction of the road if it changes.

End of the main road

Based on the name, it is not difficult to determine the meaning of the sign: it indicates the termination of the motorist’s right of priority passage, which he enjoyed in previous sections. Without installing other designations, it defines the intersection as equivalent. Therefore, the driver determines the right of way using the “right hand” rule.

Most often, the sign indicating the end of the main road is combined with a “Give Way” or “STOP” sign. With such combinations, the intersection must be regarded as unequal.

It is allowed to place it a few meters from the intersection, as well as duplicate it directly in front of it.

A rather large subgroup of signs are usually located outside populated areas. They show that the driver is moving along the main lane (it is indicated in bold), and shows on which side the secondary roads adjoin it or cross it.

The appearance of these signs is very similar to warnings. This is due to the coincidence of the rules for their location - 150–300 meters before the intersection outside the city and 50–100 meters within the populated area.

Give way

Calls for priority to be given to those traveling on the main road. When changing its direction at an intersection, the sign is supplemented with a special sign. It can be installed at exit points from areas bordering the road, when motorists cannot independently determine the advantage.

A unique octagon-shaped indicator, the color and shape of which prevents it from being confused with others. It indicates the obligation to let cars passing on the main road and at the same time stop for a short time. If there is no traffic on the main road, you still need to stop.

When "STOP" is used:

  1. Before intersections with poor visibility.
  2. Before moving railway transport, which is not regulated in any way.

A sign requiring a mandatory stop of the car allows you to fully assess the situation and take timely measures to avoid an accident.

You must park in front of the stop line, and if there is no such sign, in front of the edge of the road. On railway tracks, if there is no line, you need to stop right in front of the sign.

So, “STOP” says that you need to make two maneuvers - give way and stop at the same time to assess the situation, regardless of whether there are passing cars on the main road.

Advantage of oncoming traffic, advantage of oncoming traffic

Signs with similar names, but with completely opposite meanings. The first carries a requirement to give way, and the second communicates priority. These designations are used only for narrow roads where entering the oncoming lane is difficult due to some circumstances.

The first sign requires you to give way to oncoming motorists. It is similar in form to prohibitive. The second one establishes an advantage over oncoming traffic and gives the motorist the right to pass first.

Coverage area

Priority signs are quite an important thing that helps regulate traffic. Another point you need to know is the coverage area of ​​the signs. Applies entirely to the intersection in which they are installed.

Location varies by area. If this is a city road, then 50–100 meters from the intersection, outside the city – 150–300 meters. The sign identifying the main road will be an exception, since it is duplicated immediately before the intersection.

If there is a working traffic light, then priority signs lose their effect. For example, in the situation shown in the photo, when the green signal is on and there is a sign requiring you to stop, you must move without stopping, following the signals. This is how priority signs and traffic lights installed at one intersection operate.

If you need to cross the path of an oncoming car, you must give way. For example, if you are turning and there are no additional symbols with arrows on the traffic light.

As for the dividing markings, everything is quite simple. The contradiction of road markings and installed signs to each other indicates the mandatory compliance with the requirements of road signs. Sometimes it is possible to install temporary yellow signs.

The advantage is indicated by a blue circle with counterclockwise arrows. But this pointer alone is not enough. Priority travel around the roundabout is permitted if “Give way” or “STOP” is installed together with sign 4.3.

The second group of road signs are priority signs. Perhaps the most important. Simply, priority signs are used to regulate the order of passage of vehicles at intersections of roadways (including intersections), as well as on narrow sections of the road (for example, in places where road repair work is being carried out).

Priority signs determine the order of travel at intersections and narrow sections of roads

Failure to comply with the principles of priority is probably the most “popular” cause of accidents. That is why we will try to consider this group of road signs as efficiently as possible. Moreover, it is not so voluminous.

One important note. As a rule, all road signs (with the exception of priority signs) have a uniform shape or color scheme. And only the priority signs are not similar to each other.

"Main Road" (2.1)

The most popular place to install a sign is at the entrance to an intersection, and its coverage area most often extends to the intersection (or intersection of roadways). And in this regard, the “Main Road” sign indicates to the driver that he is entering an intersection where he will have priority when passing it.

It’s just important to remember that there are (at least!) two main “entrances” at the intersection. And two vehicles with priority must pass according to the “right hand” rule, that is, giving way to the obstacle on the right, or give way to the tram as - see the figure above.

Very often, the “Main Road” sign is installed together with one of the options for the “Main Road Direction” sign (8.13). This is done when the main road at the intersection changes its straight direction.

In this case, the rules for driving through the intersection do not change: drivers leaving the main directions have priority (correlating the order of their passage with the “right of hand” rule).

Thus, the “Main Road” sign indicates the right of way at an unregulated intersection.

"The End of the Main Road" (2.2)

The name of the sign speaks for itself: it is installed in front of an intersection and indicates to the driver that he will no longer have the advantage that he previously enjoyed when driving through previous intersections.

If the “End of the main road” sign is used independently (not in combination with other priority signs), then the driver must regard the upcoming intersection as equivalent. When passing, he must apply the “right hand” rule (give way to obstacles on the right).

However, most often this sign is displayed together with the signs “Give way” (2.4) or “Driving without stopping is prohibited” (2.5). In this case, the driver must regard the intersection as unequal, at which he no longer has the right of way, because he is entering it from a secondary direction.

The rules allow this sign to be placed previously (at some distance before the intersection), as well as again - immediately before the intersection.

"Intersection with a minor road" (2.3.1)

“Junction of a secondary road” (2.3.2 - 2.3.7)

A large family of “related” signs that are installed, as a rule, outside the populated area. All of these signs indicate to the driver that at the intersection they will drive in the “fat lane”, that is, take advantage of drivers moving on the intersecting (or adjacent) road.

The triangular shape of the signs with a red border makes them very similar to warning signs. This similarity is not accidental: the rules for installing both one and the other signs are the same - 150-300 meters before the corresponding intersection outside a populated area and 50-100 meters in a populated area.

"Make Way" (2.4)

This sign, unlike previous priority signs, indicates to the driver that at this intersection he will have to give priority to drivers driving on the main road.

If at an intersection the main road changes its direction, the “Give way” sign is installed together with the “Main Road Direction” sign (8.13).

The sign can also be installed before exits to the main road from adjacent areas. This is done in the case when drivers will not be able to clearly determine priority when passing such intersections.

“Moving without stopping is prohibited” (2.5)

This is the only sign with an octagonal shape. The original shape and color scheme will not allow it to be confused with any other sign.

Video - traffic priority signs with comments:

The sign instructs the driver to take the following actions: give way to drivers moving along the main road and make a mandatory short stop. And even if there are no vehicles on the main road that need to be given priority, it is all the same: making a short stop is the responsibility of the driver.

Thus, the principle of operation of the “No stopping without stopping” sign is similar to the “Give way” sign. But the sign we are interested in has an additional requirement - a mandatory short-term stop.

This sign is used in two main cases:

1) before intersections (intersections) where sufficient visibility of vehicles approaching the intersection along the main road is not ensured;

2) before unregulated railway crossings (without traffic lights, barriers and guards).

The requirement of a sign on the mandatory cessation of traffic in such areas will allow the driver to adequately assess the situation and take the necessary safety measures.

The question of where to stop a driver driving under this sign is of fundamental importance.

Before an intersection you should stop like this:

1) in front of the stop line;

2) in its absence - in front of the edge of the crossed roadway.

Before a railway crossing, the stopping rule is slightly different:

1) also in front of the stop line;

2) in its absence - in front of the sign.

Thus, the sign “Driving without stopping is prohibited”, installed before the intersection, requires not only to give way, but also to make a short stop (regardless of the presence or absence of a vehicle moving along the main road).

"Advantage of oncoming traffic" (2.6)

"Advantage over oncoming traffic" (2.7)

These are “related” signs with directly opposite principles of action: the first obliges to give way, and the second, on the contrary, notifies about the right of way in traffic.

Video lesson - traffic priority signs:

A logical question arises: “Why create another pair of signs indicating the priority of movement?” The fact is that this pair of signs is never posted at intersections and other intersections. They are designed specifically for narrow sections of the road where oncoming traffic is difficult to pass.

The first sign, “Give way to oncoming traffic,” is very similar in shape to prohibition signs. This is further evidence that the driver, when moving under this sign, is obliged to give way to oncoming vehicles.

The second sign, “Give way to oncoming traffic,” is reminiscent of information signs and, as the name suggests, gives the driver priority when driving through a narrow section of road.

When moving under this sign, the driver has the right to pass first.

Let's summarize

Priority signs are a very important means of regulating traffic. They determine the order of passage through intersections and narrow sections of the road.
