Sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” and additional information signs (plates)
Hello, dear readers! Today we will look at the prohibitory sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited”, its coverage area and its use with additional information signs (placards).
3.27 "Stopping is prohibited." Stopping and parking of vehicles is prohibited.
As follows from the Rules of the Road, the coverage area of sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” extends to the nearest intersection, and in the absence of an intersection, to the end of the populated area.
In order to maintain the restrictions imposed by the sign before the intersection or the end of the populated area in accordance with GOST R 52289-2004 , sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” must be re-installed directly behind the intersection or after the end of the populated area.
So, in order, if we see (in the picture below) a prohibitory sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” installed, then vehicles are prohibited from stopping after it.
In the picture there is a prohibitory road sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited”.
Throughout the sign’s coverage area, sign 8.2.4 “Validity Area” (up and down arrows) can be used, which informs drivers (for example, leaving areas adjacent to the road) that they are within the coverage area of sign 3.27 “No Stopping”.
In the picture, the use of plate 8.2.4 “Availability area” together with the prohibitory sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited”.
If it is necessary to reduce the coverage area of the prohibitory sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited,” then use plate 8.2.3 “Validity area” (down arrow), which informs that after the sign the previously entered prohibition on stopping is no longer valid.
The picture shows the use of sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” and sign 8.2.3 “Availability area”.
When the effect of the sign does not extend to the nearest intersection, then sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” can be installed with plate 8.2.2 “Validity area”.
In the image, the joint application of 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” and 8.2.2 “Area of action”.
Sometimes on the roads you can see the use of sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” together with markings 1.4 (yellow color - indicates places where stopping vehicles is prohibited), in this case, the coverage area of the sign is determined by the length of the marking.
In the picture, the use of sign 3.27 and marking 1.4.
When stopping or parking is prohibited along one side of the square, the facade of a building, etc., signs 8.2.5, 8.2.6 “Area of Action” are used.
In the photo, sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” with sign 8.2.6 “Validity area”, prohibiting stopping on the left side of the sign.
We have sorted out the coverage area of the prohibitory sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited”. Let's consider other cases of combined use of sign 3.27 and additional information signs (plates).
In the image, sign 8.18 “Except for disabled people” indicates that sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” does not apply to vehicles driven by disabled people of groups I and II or transporting such disabled people.
In the picture, sign 8.5.4 “Validity time” indicates that stopping is prohibited from 18:00 to 8:00 am (the sign’s validity time).
The following example, sign 8.5.5 “Validity hours” installed with sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited,” informs that stopping is prohibited from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., but only on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
And in the example below, sign 8.5.6 “Validity hours” says that stopping is prohibited on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
In the image below, sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited”, used with sign 8.5.1 “Saturdays, Sundays and holidays”, as well as with sign 8.2.6 “Validity area”, it is prohibited to stop before the sign on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
In the picture, with sign 3.27 “Stopping prohibited”, sign 8.24 “Tow truck is working” is used, which informs about the possible detention of the vehicle and its placement in a specialized parking lot.
There are few examples of the joint use of road signs, which is not provided for by the rules for the use of road signs.
Application of 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” and signs 8.3.3 “Direction of action”.
In the image, prohibitory sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” and plate 8.3.3 “Direction of action”, which should not be used together.
Another example, sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” and sign 8.2.3 “Area” on the contrary.
Application of 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” and signs 8.2.1 “Availability area”.
Plate 8.2.1 “Area of Operation” should not be used with sign 3.27 “Stopping Prohibited”.
This concludes today's review. If you have any questions, write, we will try to solve it together. Have a safe trip everyone and make the right stop!

No stopping sign
The moment when you need to go into a state of calm is called stopping or parking. These words are similar in meaning, but in the eyes of inspectors they have completely different interpretations. That is why, if you see the sign “Stopping is prohibited” in Stary Oskol, you need to drive through without stopping for a minute.
A “No Stopping” sign indicates to the driver that parking is not permitted in that area. Such signs are installed to ensure that cars do not interfere with other road users.
Parking in the wrong place interferes with travel, and in some situations causes congestion or traffic jams. To prevent such traffic incidents, the traffic police installs “Stopping is prohibited” signs. They help normalize traffic.
Coverage area
The coverage area of the “No Stopping” sign extends from the installation site to the nearest intersection beyond it. If there is no road intersection nearby, the driver is prohibited from parking until leaving the populated area.
In this case, the influence of the “No Stopping” sign applies exclusively to the side of the highway on which it is installed. If a sign “End of all restrictions zone” is encountered along the way, it is allowed to direct the vehicle to the sidewalk.
If you're wondering what a "No Stopping" sign looks like, imagine a red circle. The area inside it is painted blue. It is crossed by two solid lines, however, you can see this in the picture below.
If you see a “No Stopping” sign with a down arrow, this means that this rule applies from the installation site and back. Simply put, such a sign says that the influence of the zone has come to an end.
If there is a “No Stopping” sign with an arrow and a certain number of meters is specified, you will have to give up the opportunity to stop driving for the specified distance. The coverage area starts from the sign and beyond. A double arrow indicates that you are currently in range.
In some cases, under the "No Stopping" sign there are two arrows pointing in different directions. In addition, the number of meters is also written on them. Typically, such signs are installed near the facades of buildings of historical value.
Simply put, these two signs prohibit parking along the facade at a certain distance. Unfortunately, they can easily be confused with “Site Distance” signs. To prevent this from happening, pay attention to the distance between the arrows and numbers. In the first option it is much smaller.
Important! The area of influence of the “No Stopping” sign can be canceled by the white letter “P” on a blue background. This symbol indicates the possibility of parking, thereby canceling the previous designation.
There are a number of signs indicating the area of action of a red circle with two lines:
- name of the city - you cannot stop until the car crosses the line of the above-mentioned settlement;
- the name of the city crossed out means stopping traffic is prohibited until you leave the territory of the populated area;
- “End of all restrictions zone” - cancels the effect of the ban.
In the traffic rules, the “Stopping is prohibited” sign has the digital designation 3.27. On the road surface it can be duplicated by a yellow demarcation line.
What are the exceptions?
Naturally, there are exceptions in the traffic rules for the “No Stopping” sign. For example, the presence of a sign “Except for the disabled” indicates that people with disabilities can stay here.
Even without the above designation, the prohibition does not apply to:
- disabled people of the first and second groups (there must be an appropriate designation);
- postal machines;
- route transport.
In all other cases, the prohibition must be followed. Route transport includes:
- trolleybuses;
- trams;
- buses.
They may make a planned traffic stop near the sign. All others, except for the above exceptions, are subject to the “No Stopping” sign.
Fines
Unfortunately, the mere understanding that parking under this sign can cause a lot of inconvenience for pedestrians and drivers is not enough to comply with the rules. That is why, if you leave your car where stopping is prohibited, you will be fined. Moreover, the offender is required to pay for the services of a tow truck.
The standard fine for parking under a “No Stopping” sign is 500 rubles, but Article 12.19 of the Administrative Code contains a number of important clarifications:
- The fine will be from 3,000 to 5,000 rubles if disabled people can park in this place.
- If you create a dangerous situation and interfere with other transport, the payment amount will be 2000.
- If this happens in a city of federal significance, you will have to pay from 2500 to 3000 with the possibility of detaining the vehicle.
The fine for stopping under a “No Stopping” sign cannot be called particularly impressive, but buying a car from the penalty area is not a very pleasant experience.
Attention! There are a number of places where there are no signs prohibiting parking or stopping, but you still have to pay a fine.
According to clause 12.4 of the traffic rules, you cannot park in certain places, including:
- overpasses;
- railway crossings;
- tunnels;
- pedestrian crossings;
- intersections;
- tram rails;
- narrow roads.
There are a number of mitigating circumstances that allow you to get off with a simple warning. For example, if you temporarily parked at a “No Stopping” road sign to drop off passengers or unload/load a car, as an exception, the inspector may issue a warning.
Attention! The size of the fine varies in different federal districts.
Separately, it is necessary to mention the sign “Stopping is prohibited on even days.” Its serial number in the traffic rules is 3.29. This sign prohibits parking only on the side of the road on which it is installed.
The exact opposite of the previous road sign is the sign “Stopping on odd days is prohibited.” Sometimes there may be two of these signs on the same road. In this case, parking the car is allowed during the time period from 19:00 to 21:00.
However, there are a number of exceptions in which parking is permitted. If the vehicle belongs to the federal postal service and has a white line pasted on the side, temporary parking is possible. The same rule applies to taxi drivers, provided the meter is running and vehicles of disabled people of groups I and II.
The scope of the signs extends according to the same principle as in the “No Stopping” sign. At the same time, the sphere of influence is not limited to entry from territories adjacent to the road. The same applies to places where secondary roads adjoin the main highway.
What signs prohibit further movement without stopping?
The “Customs” sign prohibits further movement without a forced stop. The fine for violation is 500 rubles. The stop line is a road marking. The sign can only be installed directly next to the customs office. Sign" 3.17.3 "Control" works on the same principle.
Nevertheless, the most common “No driving without stopping” sign is the white STOP letters on a red background, well known to every motorist. Having seen them, the driver is obliged to reduce speed and stop at the stop line or edge (if there is none).
Useful nuances
Advice! If there is a "No Stopping" sign on the right side of the road, you can make a small circle and park on the left. In urban environments, this will help you find a parking space.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ws4EUF9NMhQ
Oddly enough, many drivers are interested in how long they can stand under the “No Stopping” sign, although the law clearly states that this is only allowed for route vehicles. A similar incident is connected with the external similarity of the two signs that you see below:
According to traffic rules, the owner can indeed park for a short time at the second sign. This is usually done to drop off a passenger or pick up small cargo.
Unfortunately, comments in forums dedicated to the “No Stopping” sign are full of questions about 5-minute parking. The result of such inattention is a fine.
Ambiguous traffic situations requiring detailed explanation
Pay attention to the sign with two red lines crossed out and a yellow line, is it possible to stop after it ends?
The yellow line is drawn specifically to indicate the place where the vehicle cannot be stopped. It is enough to drive beyond its limits and you can direct the car to the sidewalk.
Imagine that there is a gap in the median strip, is it possible to stop driving behind it?
The answer is definitely negative. According to the current rules, the gap is not considered an intersection. Accordingly, stopping the movement is impossible.
Who is allowed to stop under the “Except for Disabled Persons” sign?
As stated earlier, there are a number of exceptions in which it is not necessary to stop moving. However, there are important nuances that you need to be aware of:
- people who transport disabled people of the first and second groups have the right to stop traffic;
- cars with a “Disabled” sticker can drive up to the sidewalk;
- The stop is permitted for motorized wheelchairs.
Taxi drivers are not allowed to park under this sign, even with the meter on.
My car broke down right next to the sign, what should I do?
The traffic rules clearly state that in such a situation the driver must turn on the hazard warning lights and display a sign. Then it will not be considered a violation. It also wouldn’t hurt to call a tow truck so as not to create a dangerous situation on this section of the route.
The traffic controller demands to drive up to the sidewalk, what should the driver do?
In some cases, the actions of traffic controllers may contradict the designation installed on the route. Despite this, according to paragraph 6.11 of the road rules, the owner of the vehicle is first of all obliged to comply with the orders of a law enforcement representative.
Results
From all of the above, we can conclude that stopping under a “No Stopping” sign is impossible even for a short period of time. Although there are exceptions for certain categories of drivers.
Warning! Violating stopping rules can cause traffic jams and create dangerous situations on the road.

Look at the topic - What is the coverage area of the “Stopping and parking prohibited” sign?
The coverage area of prohibition signs is clearly specified in the legislation. Moreover, not only in the traffic rules (although the main extents of the distribution of these signs, except for exceptions, are still spelled out in the Rules), but also in GOST.
In particular, in the article we will find out what is the coverage area of the prohibitory sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited” for 2018, including when it is in effect with signs of the sign’s coverage area, and if this sign is temporary.
We will also find out in which cases such action periods do not apply.
So, the coverage area of the signs is regulated by Appendix No. 1 of the Traffic Regulations and GOST R 52289-2004 “Rules for the use of road signs.”
According to these legal acts, the area of effect of prohibitory signs can be limited either by the nearest intersection, the end or beginning of a populated area, a corresponding sign installed along with such a sign and indicating with upward arrows the extent of its action, or a sign of the cancellation of the corresponding ban introduced earlier by the sign.
But there are certain subtleties in the use and, most importantly, reading of such signs, as well as exceptions to the general rules.
What is the coverage area of the “No Stopping or Parking” sign?
Sign 3.27 “Stopping is prohibited”
So, in 2018, the “No Stopping” sign is installed in places where both stopping and parking are prohibited.
The coverage area of the “No Stopping” sign, in order of priority, extends depending on the signs or the organization of traffic ahead of the sign.
The effect of the “No Stopping” sign before the sign with a sign with an arrow down
If after sign 3.27 the same sign is installed, but with plate 8.2.3 (see figure below), then the downward arrow at the sign indicates that the stopping prohibition is in effect before this sign with the plate.
The “No Stopping” sign is valid until the end of the distance indicated on the sign
But the very first “No Stopping” sign can also be installed with a corresponding plate - 8.2.2: an upward arrow, and below it the distance in meters or kilometers. Then the coverage area of this sign with a plate extends to the distance indicated on the plate.
How you measure this distance is up to you. But often after such a combination of signs there is the same sign as above - with a down arrow, meaning that the distance of the sign’s coverage area has been passed, and stopping is now allowed (if other signs or traffic rules do not prohibit it).
In the diagram above we see that the sign begins to operate from the beginning of its installation and for 10 meters after this point. And at the end of the zone of operation of the “No Stopping” sign, road services prudently installed the end of the no-stop zone with the same sign with a sign indicating the validity of the sign before it, with an arrow down.
Action of the “No Stopping” sign with up and down arrows
In addition, if the sign prohibiting stopping and parking is installed together with plate 8.
24 with an arrow pointing both up and down, then the stop prohibition applies both before and after the sign.
This combination of sign and plate is installed when the stop prohibition period is very long, and thus reminds the driver that stopping is still prohibited.
Effect of the “No Stopping” sign with markings
Sign 3.27 can also be installed with roadway markings - line 1.4, which is analogous to a solid line at the side of the road, but only yellow. In cases where the “Stopping is prohibited” sign is installed, and after it the marking of the roadway 1.4 is applied, the effect of the sign extends until the end of such marking.
The effect of the “No Stopping” sign until the end of the zone of all prohibitions is valid
Instead of sign 3.27 with a sign with an arrow down, an end of all restrictions sign can also be installed. In this case, it is, of course, canceled and the prohibited stop previously introduced by sign 3.27.
The “No Stopping” sign applies to the nearest intersection or populated area
If sign 3.27 is installed without any sign, this does not mean that its coverage area is endless.
Not at all! According to the 2018 traffic rules, in this case the sign extends either to the first intersection, or to the end or beginning of the populated area (depending on whether we are inside the populated area or on the highway). Whatever comes first will cancel the effect of the sign.
It should be borne in mind that the beginning and end of a settlement are not indicated by some vague concepts (the beginning or end of residential buildings, respectively, or the beginning or end of a forest/field, etc.), but by specific information signs.
The beginning of a settlement is indicated by its official name on a white background or by painted black residential buildings on a white background. Accordingly, the end of the settlement is also indicated, but in this case the sign is crossed out.
| The beginning of the settlement | End of a settlement |
Make sure that immediately after the settlement sign there is no sign “Stopping prohibited” again, otherwise a new section of the road will begin with a prohibition on parking and stopping.
But most often the effect of sign 3.27 is canceled by the intersection. But not just anyone. The appendix to the traffic rules provides a clear commentary on intersections.
Thus, the effect of the signs is not canceled by exits from adjacent territories, which in principle are not intersections, as well as such intersections when the main road is adjacent to field, forest roads (mainly on country roads) and other secondary roads without corresponding signs of the main road.
What if the coverage area of the sign on the sign is greater than the distance to the intersection?
In rare cases, there are situations when, together with the sign 3.
27 there is a sign with an upward arrow and the distance of the coverage area, for example, 1 kilometer, but the nearest intersection or the beginning or end of a populated area is less than a kilometer away.
In this case, what should we believe, what has priority: the coverage area of the sign on the sign or to the intersection/populated area and what has priority, because they contradict each other?!
This situation is not specified in the traffic rules. But a clear answer to this question is not given by GOST on road signs. So, paragraph 5.9 of this GOST states that:
As you can see, GOST refers us to clause 5.4.31. What is written there? And the same as in the traffic rules - that the “Stopping is prohibited” sign is valid either until the intersection, or until the nearest populated area or the end of the populated area, indicated by the corresponding information sign.
What is the fine for violating a “No Stopping” sign?
If you made a stop in the area covered by sign 3.27, then you will be fined 1,500 rubles if you violated it in the regions of Russia, and 3,000 rubles if you are in Moscow or St. Petersburg. Such fines are regulated by parts 4 and 5 of Article 12.16 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, respectively.
In what cases is there no fine for illegal stopping?
A fine cannot be imposed if your stop is forced.
A forced stop includes any stop due to a technical malfunction of your car, an accident, or if you as a driver feel unwell.
At the same time, you should keep in mind that according to the traffic rules you are obliged to take all possible measures to remove the car from the area where stopping is prohibited, as well as put up an emergency stop sign and turn on the emergency lights.
Can a stop against a sign be recorded on an auto-recording camera?
Yes, both prohibited stopping and parking as of 2018 can be recorded by cameras that automatically record violations.
Only most often these are not stationary cameras, but traffic police cars driving along the route through areas with prohibited stopping and parking, recording violations on camera.
Also, a prohibited stop cannot be proven through ordinary photographic recording, because with such recording it is not visible whether the car is stationary or moving - video recording is required.
Does the discount apply to a traffic stop fine?
Yes, both fines can be paid with a 50% discount within 20 days after the decision is issued.
Is evacuation provided for stopping in violation of the sign?
Yes, for violations of stopping and parking rules, your car may be towed to an impound lot.

No stop sign - coverage area and installation locations
The more time passes from the moment you graduate from driving school, the more all sorts of nuances from traffic rules are erased from your memory.
Drivers often confuse the “No Stopping” sign prohibiting stopping with the very similar “No Parking” sign.
It is proposed to focus on the distinctive features of the technical means of road safety mentioned first. What does the stop sign mean, read below.
Peculiarities
This sign belongs to the prohibitory category.
They set restrictions on certain actions of the motorist on the road and are characterized by the following general features:
- huge variety;
- widespread on roads;
- a large number of exceptions when using them.
It is not easy to understand all these intricacies.
The sign in question is included in the group that establishes or cancels the specified traffic mode.
It is advisable to note the following exception to the rules of its application: the sign does not apply to minibuses. Drivers of these vehicles have the right to ignore it.
The action of the sign in question begins directly from the place of its installation.
Sign options: photo
Traffic regulations prohibit stopping in the area of the sign, which is a blue circle with a red outline around the perimeter, crossed out by two crossed red stripes. This is what the standard version looks like. It assumes the presence of markings: a solid line of bright yellow color determines the sign’s coverage area.
See the photo below for what the no-stop sign looks like.
An up and down arrow means you are still within the sign's range
If there is a sign under the sign, then the car owner’s task is made easier. He does not need to remember where he is allowed to stop. The number provides information about the sign's coverage area.
Arrows, one pointing up and the other pointing down, prohibit parking, and so on. The plate also depicts the type of vehicle that is subject to the ban in this case.
Installation with a sign specifies the sign's coverage area and tells the driver how to behave on the road within the framework of current traffic regulations.
The difference between a stop and a parking lot
In the eyes of most car enthusiasts, these two actions have a barely discernible boundary. It is not surprising that conflicts often arise between drivers and inspectors, the outcome of which is punishment for incorrect interpretation of the rules.
In the terminology of traffic rules, stopping and parking are differentiated mainly by the time factor.
The duration of the stop does not exceed 5 minutes. The need for this action is determined by one of the following reasons:
- Boarding and disembarking passengers.
- Loading and unloading of goods.
Parking as a result of stopping traffic takes more than 5 minutes and does not force the driver to explain or somehow justify its necessity.
A “No Stopping” sign does not give the driver the right to stop or park.
As an exception, interrupting movement for a short period of time is allowed in three cases:
- sudden appearance of an obstacle on the roadway;
- technical malfunction of the car;
- driver's health problems.
What they have in common is the possibility of an accident if the movement continues. You should immediately put up a warning triangle and try to fix the problem as soon as possible.
A parking ban does not automatically entail a ban on stopping. If it is not allowed to stop, then parking is even more prohibited.
Parking within the area covered by the “No Stopping” sign will result in penalties.
Where is it installed?
The scope of application of this sign extends to roads on which any interference in the path of traffic flow is highly undesirable.
Among them it is advisable to name the following:
- highways;
- narrow roads in cities.
A detailed answer to this question is given by the traffic rules. In accordance with established requirements, the sign can be found:
- near tram tracks, in order to avoid interference with trams from passing cars;
- in front of bridges, tunnels, crossings over railway tracks, overpasses, if there is a road with one or two lanes;
- in narrow places on roads, when when a car stops, the space for traffic to move along the lane may become less than 3 meters;
- in front of sections of roads with a high risk of travel and with visibility of less than one hundred meters;
- at the intersection of roads and closer than a five-meter zone from the edge of the crossed roadway;
- close to designated public transport stops, including taxis.
If necessary, stopping vehicles can be prohibited in other places by installing the road sign in question.
The operation of the stop sign is prohibited
The sign loses its meaning in cases common to all prohibition signs. The ban ends:
- upon reaching the nearest intersection;
- when leaving a certain locality;
- when a sign indicating the cancellation of all restrictions appears.
The specificity of this technical security measure is that there are additional rules that override its effect. It is advisable to list them:
- the appearance of a “Parking” sign with an information plate about its range of action;
- end of yellow solid line;
- completion of the distance indicated on the sign below the sign.
The sign prohibits stopping only on the side of the roadway on which it is installed.
Installed together with which signs?
It was previously noted that the installation of a sign may be accompanied by restrictions on its coverage area.
It is proposed to systematize this information. So, the duration of the ban is determined in the following ways:
- by installing, together with the sign, a standardized “Area of Action” sign of type 7.2.2, indicating at what distance the restriction applies;
- duplicating the sign with the "Validity Area" plate of modification 7.2.4 located below with a bidirectional up and down arrow, prompting the driver that he has not yet left the restricted area;
- the appearance under the sign of a sign “Area of Action” of variety 7.2.5 or 7.2.6, indicating the direction and distance of the prohibition of stopping along a certain side of the square or facade of an industrial building;
- placing a repeated sign with an information plate “Area of Action” type 7.2.3 underneath, on which a downward arrow indicates the lifting of the restriction;
- the appearance of the “End of the zone of all restrictions” sign, after passing which the motorist will be able to stop.
Sign with additional plate
If there is no supporting information contained on the signs, you will have to remember the basic and additional rules for lifting the ban mentioned above.
Penalty for violation
Failure to comply with traffic regulations is punishable in accordance with the Administrative Code. The violator will have to part with a certain amount of money. In addition, as an interim measure, the detention of a vehicle with its subsequent placement in a specialized parking lot is often used.
The amount of the fine is determined depending on a number of the following factors:
- the driver committed a primary or repeated violation;
- on which section of the roadway the illegal action was carried out;
- in which region did the motorist ignore the traffic rules?
Violation of the rules in the area covered by the “no stopping” road sign is subject to a fine of 1,500 rubles. The same thing in Moscow or St. Petersburg entails payment of 3,000 rubles. (Article 12.16 of the Administrative Code).
If the car was stopped in an inappropriate place and did not create serious obstacles to the movement of other types of transport, then you will have to pay 500 rubles. For the same offense committed in Moscow or St. Petersburg, a fine of 2,500 rubles is imposed.
Those stopped at a pedestrian crossing face a fine of 1,000 rubles.
A stop in the tunnel will force you to part with 2000 rubles. The same violations detected in Moscow or St. Petersburg will empty the car owner’s pocket by 3,000 rubles. (Article 12.19 of the Administrative Code).
Failure to stop on railway tracks is punishable more severely. A fine of 1,000 rubles is imposed, and a relapse is fraught with deprivation of rights for a year (Article 12.10 of the Administrative Code).
In most cases, additional expenses are added to the penalties:
- payment for towing the car from the scene of the violation;
- compensation for storing a vehicle in a specialized parking lot.
The amount of costs is determined by orders of regional authorities and differentiates depending on the type of vehicle.
In Moscow and St. Petersburg, violators will have to pay more.
Financial losses are aggravated by the psychological state of a person who does not find his car where he left it. The location of the vehicle will have to be clarified at the police department, but information will not be received there right away. A couple of hours will be enough for the unlucky driver to have doubts and become suspicious of the theft.
Before evacuation, the inspector draws up a protocol and takes a photo of the car. If the driver manages to return to the stop, he can avoid additional expenses, but he will still have to pay a fine for the violation.
Punishment can be imposed on the motorist after the fact, provided that the committed offense is photographed.
Any unused information tends to be erased from memory. In order not to get caught in small things and to save his own money, a motorist should regularly look at the traffic rules and leaf through at least those articles of the Code of Administrative Offenses that are relevant to his daily life behind the wheel.

For violation of traffic rules in 2018, quite serious fines are provided. At the same time, it is not so easy to navigate among the numerous road signs. Today we will look in detail at the coverage area of the “No Parking” sign and what its specifics are.
There can be many nuances that arise during the movement. For example, even stopping a car directly under a “no parking” sign will not always constitute a violation of the rules.
Drivers need to know what kind of liability is provided for violating the rules, and when it can be avoided . Of course, it is important to be attentive.
No-parking signs are usually installed on areas of the road with heavy traffic, near construction sites, gas pipelines and intersections, as well as in any place where stopping a vehicle could pose a potential danger.
Parking and stopping
First of all, it is important to understand the essence of the “No Parking” sign . Motorists often barely distinguish it from the “No Stopping” sign.
The question arises: if parking is prohibited, is stopping allowed? In this case, when it comes to the “No Parking” sign, it is necessary to define the word “parking” in this context.
Parking is generally understood as stopping the movement of a vehicle for a time interval exceeding 5 minutes. At the same time, parking is not associated with boarding, disembarking people, or moving luggage.
If we are talking about a “No Stopping” sign, then a short-term stop is already provided for, less than 5 minutes. You can stop under the “No Parking” road sign, but not for long. This is allowed by the rules.
In addition, the vehicle can stop if it is necessary to wait for a passenger, unload or load luggage.
Thus, in accordance with sign 3.28, it is prohibited to park vehicles on the side where the sign is located. You can stay in this area.
These signs are installed on the following sections of the road:
- where a standing car blocks the movement of pedestrians and cars;
- where stopped vehicles can reduce the safety of other participants;
- where a stationary vehicle provokes other drivers to break the rules.
Now it's time to determine how the "no parking" sign works. According to the rules, it has the following effect:
- at intersections with secondary roads;
- at exits from sites adjacent to the highway;
- from the installation site to the end of the settlement, if there is no intersection;
- from the sign to the nearest intersection.
Also, a road sign is sometimes installed along with markings.
It is a dashed yellow line that goes after the sign along the curb or border of the road or sidewalk. In this case, the sign will be valid throughout the marking until its end.
Sign influence zones: installation of additional signs
Additional signage elements can also influence the area of influence of the “No Parking” sign.
Let's look at the types of pointers:
- A “no parking” sign with an arrow down, an arrow up, a horizontal arrow and indicating meters. The sign explains that in this direction, at the designated distance, it is valid, that is, it prohibits parking. These could be dangerous forks, congested sections of the road, or areas along buildings.
- A round road sign with five black slanted lines on a white background cancels all previous instructions.
- An additional sign with an arrow pointing down may be installed. It also complements the no-parking sign, indicating a specific zone.
- A sign with an arrow that simultaneously indicates the direction down and up indicates that the vehicle is already moving in the area of the prohibition sign.
- When a sign depicts specific types of transport, it means that only those types of vehicles are prohibited from standing within the area of the sign.
- If a "Parking" sign is combined with a sign, it indicates the distance at which it is valid.
- There are signs that indicate specific times and days of the week. This is information about the parking ban during the specified periods. In this case, working days are indicated by two hammers, and weekends are indicated by a beautiful snowflake.
There are also varieties of the “no parking” road sign: with one or two light vertical stripes, which are located inside the crossed-out field.
On even days of the month, parking under a sign with two stripes is prohibited, and on odd days – with one.
Now you know where the “No Parking” sign extends, what its specifics are, and what additional signs it has.
Be aware of the rules, follow them, so as not to create emergency situations and not pay fines.
