Watch the video. And after that we will analyze each case separately.
Episode One - "Roadside"
Traffic rules allow stopping and even parking on the side of the road, if this is not additionally regulated by road signs. In addition, vehicles may stop on the sidelines in the event of a technical malfunction. But curb driving is prohibited:
Clause 9.9. The movement of vehicles on dividing lanes and curbs, sidewalks and footpaths is prohibited …
What happened in the first episode clearly shows what is fraught with violation of this paragraph of the SDA. And it’s good that after the collision the intruder was not thrown into the oncoming lane. But this almost happened, and then everything could be much worse.
Tip: do not go to the side of the road, especially at such a high speed.
Episode Two - "Wet Asphalt"
A typical case of "aquaplaning." While the car with the registrar was driving behind the wagon, the car obediently obeyed the actions of the driver. But as soon as the driver went to overtake, the situation changed dramatically. The condition of the tires and the thickness of the water layer on the road at high speed have become critical - the driver wants to take a place in a row in front of the truck and cannot do this. The car loses control, it turns around. Well, even a greater distance to the oncoming car allowed to avoid an accident.
paragraph 10.1. The driver must drive the vehicle at a speed not exceeding the established limit, taking into account the traffic intensity, features and condition of the vehicle and cargo, road and weather conditions, in particular visibility in the direction of travel. Speed should provide the driver with the ability to constantly monitor the movement of the vehicle to meet the requirements of the Rules.
Tip: Slow down during rain.
Episode Three - "Transport with a Special Signal"
Do not make out a fire truck with a siren and a flashing beacon on at an intersection - you have to try hard. And I will never believe that the driver did not know this paragraph of the Rules:
Section 3.2. When approaching a vehicle with a blue flashing light turned on and a special sound signal, drivers must give way to ensure unhindered passage of the specified vehicle.
Tip: do not obstruct special vehicles.
Episode Four - "Overtaking and Detour"
The driver of the jeep is about to overtake, but does not give a left turn signal. At the last moment he notices a passing car, which has already begun the same maneuver a moment earlier. A sharp movement of the wheel, and the SUV begins to skid. As a result, the motorcycle was damaged.
Clause 11.1. Before starting overtaking, the driver must make sure that the lane to which he intends to leave is free at a sufficient distance to overtake and that during overtaking he will not create a danger to traffic and interference with other road users.
Tip: follow the rules of overtaking and do not make sudden movements with the wheel in an emergency, especially if you do not have the appropriate skills.
Episode Five - "Left Turn"
It seemed that the driver of the car with the recorder was doing everything right: pressed against the axial and, I hope, turned on the left turn signal in advance. Ahead, the oncoming strip is free as far as the eye can see.
But the driver of a heavy truck violates the Rules in part of clause 11.2:
The driver is not allowed to overtake in the event that a vehicle moving ahead in the same lane has given a left turn signal.
And he is certainly to blame. And stopping the overloaded timber truck that went on overtaking is not so simple.
