Traffic priority signs. Traffic priority signs - what function do they perform? Priority signs and their meaning

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 small bridges, in situations of road repair and on other narrowings (including on mountain serpentine roads).

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.
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.

7. Service marks.

Service signs inform about the location of the relevant facilities.

7.1 "Medical aid station".

On this topic.

Priority signs establish the order of passage through intersections, intersections of roadways or narrow sections of the road.

This is the smallest group of signs, and they are easy to remember. Having studied the priority signs, you will never have questions about who should pass through an intersection or a narrow part of the road first, and who should give way.

2.1 "". A road on which the right of way is granted to unregulated intersections. As a rule, this sign is used in populated areas; if it is installed outside a populated area, parking on the roadway of such a road is prohibited.

2.2 "". This sign is installed at the end of the road, which had previously been the main road for several intersections in a row. Sign 2.2 in itself does not oblige the driver to give way.

2.3.1 "".

2.3.2 - 2.3.7 "". Adjacent to the right - 2.3.2, 2.3.4, 2.3.6, to the left - 2.3.3, 2.3.5, 2.3.7.

Signs 2.3.1-2.3.7 are usually installed outside populated areas and only on the main road (this is indicated by a thick line on the sign itself). These signs are similar to warning signs and can be installed 150-300 m before the intersection. Having seen such a sign, the driver must understand that he is on the main road. Signs 2.3.2-2.3.3 are installed if the angle between the axes of the main and secondary roads is 60-90°; if the angle is less than 60°, signs 2.3.4-2.3.7 are installed.

2.4 "". The driver must give way to vehicles moving on the road being crossed, and, if there is a sign 8.13, on the main road. The driver can pass this sign without stopping if it does not interfere with other road users. This sign is usually installed immediately before the intersection, but, in some cases, outside a populated area, the sign can be installed with a sign 8.1.1 “Distance to object,” informing the driver that there is an intersection ahead at which sign 2.5 is installed.

2.5"". It is prohibited to drive without stopping in front of the stop line, and if there is none, in front of the edge of the intersecting roadway. The driver must give way to vehicles moving along the intersection, and if there is a sign 8.13 “Direction of the main road” - along the main road.

Sign 2.5 can be installed in front of a railway crossing or quarantine post. In these cases, the driver must stop in front of the stop line, and if there is no stop line, in front of the sign.

Unlike sign 2.4 “Give way,” sign 2.5 “Driving without stopping is prohibited” requires the driver to stop the vehicle in any case, even if it does not interfere with anyone. Signs 2,4 and 2.5 are not valid at a controlled intersection if it is controlled by a traffic controller or the traffic light is in green-yellow-red mode.

2.6"". It is prohibited to enter a narrow section of road if this may impede oncoming traffic. The driver must give way to oncoming vehicles located in a narrow area or the opposite entrance to it.

2.7"". A narrow section of road on which the driver has advantage over oncoming vehicles.

Signs 2.6 and 2.7 are installed in pairs - one sign on one side of a narrow section of the road, the other on the other. The driver, having seen sign 2.6 “Right of way for oncoming traffic,” must give way to oncoming traffic only if passing is difficult. If oncoming traffic does not cause difficulties, you can move without stopping.

You can easily remember who has the advantage by looking at the red arrow on the sign, symbolizing the ban. If the red arrow on the sign is directed away from you (from bottom to top), oncoming traffic has priority; if the red arrow is directed towards you (from top to bottom) - you have the advantage.

Traffic priority signs are designed to establish the order of traffic at uncontrolled intersections, in places where it is impossible for two cars moving towards each other to pass simultaneously.
Guided by these signs, the driver can navigate and prevent an emergency from occurring at the intersection of roadways, exiting or turning onto another road.
Of course, safe traffic cannot be guaranteed if all participants, through ignorance or inattention, ignore the requirements of traffic regulations, in particular those related to priority signs.
So, let’s try, avoiding formal language, to tell you a little more about this small section of the Rules.

Traffic priority signs, their numbers and names

The image shows priority signs made in accordance with the requirements of the standard, their names and numbers.

Road sign "Main Road" (2.1)

Installed at intersections. If you see it in front of you when approaching the intersection of roadways, then you have an advantage over cars moving from other directions.
But if you need to make a left turn, then you must give way to cars moving towards you on the main road. Here it is necessary to add that the main road often changes its direction at intersections. In such cases, sign 2.1 is supplemented by plate number 8.13, which clearly informs the driver about the direction of the main road.
True, there are some oddities, and the depiction of the direction of the main road on a sign can take on a rather bizarre form, thanks to the creative energy of the artist who created it. Such “masterpieces,” although not standard, still inform the driver to a sufficient extent.
The coverage area of the “Main Road” sign is determined by another “End of the Main Road” sign (2.2), which is also installed at intersections.

"Make Way" (2.4)

A “Give Way” sign means that you are leaving a secondary road on or crossing a main road. In this case, you are obliged to give way to vehicles moving on the main road; its direction, if necessary, is also indicated using an additional sign 8.13.
If, when turning left, you have to cross the path of a vehicle moving towards you straight along a secondary road, the rules establishing the passage of intersections of equivalent roadways come into force, that is, you give up the right of way to it.
It should also be remembered that overtaking committed in a secondary direction while crossing the main one is punished quite severely, up to and including deprivation of your “rights” for six months.

Intersection sign with a minor road (2.3.1)

As a rule, it is installed outside populated areas; Rather, it has the meaning of a warning - after all, even when moving along the main road, you must be careful at intersections. The symbolism is quite clear - the secondary roadway is marked with a thin line.
Options for its implementation may include signs 2.3.2-2.3.7 – “Adjacent to the main road”.

Oncoming traffic priority sign (2.6)

A road sign indicating the priority of oncoming traffic is installed before entering a section of the road where the accident-free passage of two vehicles approaching from opposite directions is difficult or completely impossible.
This could be a narrow bridge or a narrowing of the roadway due to repair work being carried out on it.
It works “in tandem” with the sign of priority over oncoming traffic (2.7), which is placed at the opposite entrance to such a section.
Some drivers can be said to abuse their rights. That is, they can basically start moving, having the advantage established by the signs, when the oncoming car has already passed part of the narrow passage. But at the same time they forget that they are obliged to make sure that the road is clear.
However, for such behavior, such narrow-minded “drivers” are sooner or later punished - either by a traffic police inspector or by other road users.

“Moving without stopping is prohibited” (2.5)

Most often, such a sign is placed before passing through railway tracks, exiting highways loaded with vehicles, etc. A stop is needed so that you can more carefully assess the situation on the road, which will contribute to traffic safety.

Traffic lights and priority signs

No special comments are required here - priority signs when the traffic light is running at an intersection, let’s say, lose their force. If you need to cross the path of oncoming traffic, you will be required to give way - for example, when turning left and there are no additional traffic light sections with arrows.

Priority of signs over markings

What is more important – priority signs or markings on the road?
The rules are quite clear in such cases. When choosing what to follow in cases where markings and signs “contradict” each other, comply with the requirements of the signs.
To establish the traffic order, for example, when carrying out repair work on the roadway, temporary signs are installed with an image on a yellow background or indicating the detour direction.
In conclusion, if you do not understand any of the sections of the traffic rules, solve the tasks from the exam papers. The various situations are sufficiently clearly illustrated there. Having identified repeated errors, conduct a “debriefing” by picking up a thin brochure of the Rules. Believe me, this is a fairly proven method.
