What's all the fuss about the spike sticker? All about the sign of the spikes on the car The law on the sticker of the spikes on the car.
From April 4, 2017, there are changes in the road rules in Russia that relate to the presence of the “Spikes” sign on cars. Drivers suddenly had to remember about the triangle with a capital letter “Sh”, which, it seems, was not even always talked about in post-Soviet driving schools. There are also a lot of those who drive in our editorial office, so it was also interesting for us to find out the answers to the most important questions on this topic.
Spike sign: mandatory or not, absence penalty 2017. What does the Spike sign show?
Not such a strange question as it seems at first glance. It is important to remember: the “Spikes” sign does not just inform other road users that in winter you are using wheel tires equipped with spikes. The sign warns that due to the presence of spikes on the wheels, your braking distance on slippery roads can be much shorter than other drivers think. And, therefore, it makes sense for all of them to literally stay away from you - that is, at an increased distance, so that in the event of your sudden braking, they simply do not crash into your ass.
In addition, since studded tires are still available in varying quality, studs coming out from under the wheels of vehicles in front is still a common occurrence. So, fellow travelers behind you should be warned: if they do not want to get a solid object identical to the notorious “pebble” in the windshield, then again they should keep at a more respectful distance.
Penalty for the absence of a spike sign 2017: article of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation
Yes, it's a must now. By government decree (No. 333 of March 24, 2017), the absence of the “Spikes” sign is included in the number of malfunctions in which the operation of the vehicle is prohibited. Thus, starting from April 4, any traffic inspector who did not find this sign on your car can not only write you a fine of 500 rubles (incriminating you with a violation of paragraph 2.5 of part 1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses - failure to comply with the conditions for ensuring road safety). It is in his power to simply forbid you to move on - until the corresponding malfunction is fixed, that is, until you place the missing sign on your rear window.
The Sign of the Thorns: What other consequences can come from the absence of the Sign of the Thorns?
Another possible nuisance can become a "makeweight" to another - when someone crashed into your car from behind. As we have already said, the spike sign warns the person behind you that your stopping distance may be much shorter than theirs. Accordingly, if there is no such warning, then the traffic cop can easily admit mutual guilt, no matter how you poke him and the other culprit of the accident in the book with traffic rules (clause 9.10 on the need to keep a distance). What this means in your further communication with the insurance company, it is probably unnecessary to explain.
Spike sign in summer: And if I have Velcro or is it already summer outside?
If you do not use studded tires, then the presence or absence of the "Spikes" sign does not concern you - at least not yet. It is possible that after some time the legislator will return to this issue at the suggestion of the traffic police. In principle, it will be logical: like spikes, the lip-system on wheels is designed to fight against slipping on a winter road, and therefore shorten your braking distance in case of emergency braking.
(In fact, according to tests, at low temperatures, the braking distance on the "Velcro" is even less than on the spikes, and in this case it is not very clear what the "Spikes" signs should inform other drivers about. But let's leave it to the conscience of the legislator ).
Now about the seasonal factor. The only rule you need to know is that the “Spikes” sign on your car must appear in sync with the appearance of studded wheels on it. However, it is worth remembering that the operation of summer tires in Russia is legally prohibited from December to February, as, by the way, riding on spikes from June to August inclusive. The rest of the time is a period that is at the discretion of the driver himself, who must be guided by weather conditions. In addition, the will of the local legislator is provided, which can increase or, conversely, reduce the summer and winter periods by regional law, again based on the climatic conditions of the area. The duration of winter in the Krasnodar Territory and Yamal, you see, is somewhat different.
At the same time, the law does not provide for the responsibility of the driver for the presence of the sign "Spikes" on the rear window in the absence of spikes on his wheels. This means that if you have not removed this sign for the summer period, no one will punish you. So it’s not necessary to suffer and peel it off in order to return it in six months, or even in just a couple of months. We would even strongly recommend everyone to have it, regardless of the season and preferences in the type of winter tires. Who knows, maybe a warning that you are on spikes and you have the appropriate braking distance will save you from unnecessary trouble on the road?
Penalty for the absence of the spikes sign 2017. Rules for installing the spikes sign. How to glue (attach) the Spike sign?
According to paragraph 8 of the Basic Provisions on the admission of the vehicle for operation, vehicles with studded tires must also be equipped with the appropriate sign of an approved sample in the form of an equilateral triangle with a side length of at least 20 centimeters, with an inner red outline (width stripes - 10% of the length of the side) and a large letter "Ш" in the center of the triangle. The background of the sign is white.
The requirements of the legislation are due to concern for the safety of all road users - spiked wheels can cause a traffic accident:
- The braking distance of a car with studded tires is an order of magnitude shorter than that of a vehicle of the same model and configuration, but without studs. It follows that the driver behind the car is likely to fail to stop in time, as most rely on their own experience and keep a safe distance based on the average stopping distance of a vehicle with standard tires.
- Poor-quality rubber studding, which manifests itself in the form of spikes flying off during movement. The coincidence of several factors (the speed of the car with spikes, the trajectory of the stud that has flown out, the proximity of the vehicle behind the car with spikes) can damage the windshield of the car behind. In addition to spikes, stones often fly out from under the wheels of an upgraded vehicle.
NOTE: The absence of the “Spikes” sign on a car with studded wheels in most cases is the reason for the refusal to issue a diagnostic card when passing a technical inspection of the car.
The sign must be clearly visible at a distance of 20 meters or more, so it must be mounted on the rear window of the car, and with tinted windows, it must be on the outside.
Thorn sign: Can I make this desired sign myself?
The question is not idle, given that now, in the wake of the general excitement, the “Ships” sign has become a real deficit, and its cost sometimes even exceeds the very 500 rubles that will have to be paid for its absence. In some regions, as in the Sverdlovsk region, the leadership of the territorial divisions of the traffic police even met the drivers halfway and announced a temporary moratorium on the application of sanctions for a formal violation.
Practice shows that excitement is a short-lived matter. But if there is no way to endure (you need to drive), and traffic cops in your area turned out to be not so loyal to those who are driving, then it is quite possible to get by with a temporary replacement of the “factory” sign.
In any case, it is useful to remember that each similar product mentioned in the rules has its own GOST. So "Thorns" is a sign in the form of an equilateral triangle white color top up with a red border, in which the letter "SH" is inscribed in black. The side of the triangle must be at least 200 mm, and the width of the border is 1/10 of the side of the triangle.
It is also important not to forget about the visibility of the sign - after all, you hang it not for yourself, but for other road users. It should be clearly visible from a distance of at least 20 meters, including at night, which should also always be remembered. If the rear window of your car is tinted, then the sign must be glued to the outside.
In general, if you can meet these requirements, then the Internet will help you - there you can find and print an image of a sign of quite acceptable quality. In this sense, it is easier for residents of big cities, where there are a lot of firms, where you can quickly and cheaply make any sign and sticker to order. On the other hand, residents of smaller settlements may not face a rush demand for this rather specific product: it was probably delivered in sufficient quantities to the local Rospechat.
Thorn sign: What else is important to know?
The requirement for the presence of the “Spikes” sign on the car applies to all drivers without exception. But the fact is that this is not the only sign that, by the mentioned 333rd government decree, has become mandatory for the admission of vehicles to operation. Starting from April 4, 2017, the car cannot be operated if, depending on the circumstances, it also does not have signs: “Road train”, “Transportation of children”, “Deaf driver”, “Training vehicle”, “Speed limit”, “Dangerous Cargo”, “Oversized Cargo”, “Slow Vehicle”, “Long Vehicle” and “Beginner Driver”.
Most of these signs are special. For example, the sign "Transportation of children" applies only to buses, and "Long-length vehicle" - as a rule, is hung on freight transport. It is important to pay attention to the “Beginner Driver” sticker if your driving experience is less than two years. After checking your rights and not finding the appropriate sign on your car, the traffic cop will fine you and prohibit you from driving further.
In Russia, starting from April 4, 2017, legislative amendments come into force that provide for a traffic police fine for the absence of a “studded” badge on a car in the case of using winter studded tires.

Initially, the traffic police fine in the amount of 500 rubles for the lack of a “Sh” badge on a car was perceived by the Russian motorist community as an absurd April Fool's joke. Against the background of understandable to all or his appearance seemed nonsense.
With bewilderment to the new illogical rule regarding the "spikes" badge, including the traffic police themselves. A note in the Arguments and Facts newspaper received a great response, in which the deceitfulness of the law was reported with reference to the regional offices of the traffic police.
Unfortunately, after a detailed investigation, the news about the fines of the traffic police for the lack of a sticker "thorns" turned out to be true. The amendments to the legislation were personally signed by Russian Minister Dmitry Medvedev.
Unfortunately, on April 4, 2017, a fine of 500 rubles for the absence of a thorns sign is reality
Here is an excerpt from the news from the official website of the traffic police:
In addition, a ban has been introduced on the operation of vehicles in the absence of identification marks on them, which must be installed in accordance with the Basic Provisions for the admission of vehicles for operation and the duties of officials to ensure road safety. These are such signs as "Beginner driver", "Spikes", "Transportation of children", "Deaf driver" and others. Driving a vehicle that does not have the indicated identification marks, in accordance with the Code of the Russian Federation on Administrative Offenses (part 1 of article 12.5), entails the imposition of an administrative penalty in the form of a warning or an administrative fine in the amount of five hundred rubles.
It follows that the fine under Part 1 of Art. 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses from April 4, 2017, Russian drivers shine not only for the absence of the “thorns” (“Sh”) triangle sign, but also for the absence of the “novice driver” sign (we have already reported about this) and the absence of the “Transportation of children” sign, "Deaf Driver"
This circumstance is perplexing. This confusion is justified on several counts. Firstly, a deaf driver on winter tires and with children will have to hang all the glass with badge stickers, and secondly, some car statuses change very quickly, for example, “a child in a car” - the sticker crate is extremely inconvenient in such cases.
Well, the biggest complaint of motorists sounds like - "Why?". A long time ago in the USSR, the sign "spikes" was hung up due to the loss of spikes on low-quality rubber, now this phenomenon is in the past. The difference in the braking speeds of cars is also a strange point of justification - in large cities everyone already rides on spikes, and they recently wanted to make the introduction of such rubber mandatory. And if they are all the same, why mark it. Yes, and these ideas about rubber are outdated. Expensive friction tires without studs in a pair slow down better than studded ones - in this way the “studded” sign will even be harmful, it will mislead other drivers.

According to government decree No. 333 of March 24, 2017, from April 4, 2017, the state traffic inspector may prohibit the operation of a car with studded tires that does not have the “Spikes” sign. Sanctions for the absence of the sign "Spikes" are provided for in Part 1 of Art. 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. This is a warning or a fine of 500 rubles.
Rules for installing the “Spikes” sign According to paragraph 8 of the Basic Provisions on the admission of the vehicle for operation, on vehicles with studded tires, the corresponding sign of an approved sample in the form of an equilateral triangle with a side length of at least 20 centimeters must be installed without fail, with red inner contour (band width - 10% of the side length) and a large letter "Ш" in the center of the triangle. The background of the sign is white.

In addition to spikes, stones often fly out from under the wheels of an upgraded vehicle.
The sign must be clearly visible at a distance of 20 meters or more, so it must be mounted on the rear window of the car, and with tinted windows, it must be on the outside.
Responsibility in case of an accident
Ignoring the reasonable requirements of the law, you need to be prepared for negative consequences. In the event of a traffic accident, the formally guilty driver of a vehicle that crashed into a car with studded wheels has every right to sue a careless car enthusiast who did not bother to warn about the features of his car. As practice shows, judges often recognize mutual responsibility for an accident, which is of great importance when resolving issues with an insurance company: as a rule, repairs to a damaged car have to be done at their own expense by both participants in the accident. Driving a vehicle requires compliance with traffic rules and a respectful attitude towards others. Ultimately, such behavior affects the safety of both the driver and other road users.

DOCUMENT OVERVIEW
Novice drivers were banned from driving cars without a special sign.
Restrictions have been introduced for drivers with a driving experience of up to 2 years. Thus, they cannot tow the vehicles they drive other motor vehicles. They are also prohibited from transporting people on a motorcycle (drivers with category A, A1) or a moped (drivers with any category).
Even for novice motorists, a ban on the operation of cars without an identification mark "Beginner Driver" has been introduced, which will make it possible to bring the violator to administrative responsibility. At the same time, the obligation to place the said sign on mopeds (other than tractors, self-propelled vehicles and motorcycles) is excluded.
As stated in the explanatory note to the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation, decisions taken aimed at reducing the accident rate with the participation of novice drivers.
The traffic rules also allow the movement of motorcycles on motorways at a speed of no more than 110 km / h, on other roads - no more than 90 km / h. Previously, on all roads, these vehicles could move at a speed of no more than 90 km/h.
With the onset of the winter period, it is time for drivers to be extra careful on the roads. As a rule, in winter there is a lot of precipitation in the form of snow or rain, and this, after a slight frost, turns the road into a real skating rink. Due to the ice crust, the grip of the wheel rubber of cars with asphalt, concrete or dirt roads is reduced. This impairs the effectiveness of braking, so cars often skid.
Is it obligatory to install the sign "Spikes"
In order to safely drive a motor vehicle in icy conditions, many drivers use anti-collision spikes to equip their vehicles. They control the passage of the car on slippery road gaps. But, such an installation somewhat changes the parameters of the machine. In order for other drivers to be able to navigate and secure their ride on the road, an appropriate sign must be installed on a car with studded tires. A pictogram to warn rear riders is mounted on the rear window.
In practice, less than half of the drivers use this necessary measure and ignore the installation of the "Spike" sign. This is fundamentally wrong. The rules of the road clearly state the mandatory installation of this identification mark..
The law requires mandatory installation, since studded wheels can lead to a traffic accident. How it happens in practice:
- A car with studded tires has a distance covered by the brakes several times less than an equivalently equipped vehicle of the same model, but with standard wheels. If we take into account that the driver on ordinary rubber rides behind and counts on the average braking distance, then a collision may occur if a car with an unmarked studded vehicle suddenly stops abruptly. Even despite the sufficient distance between the vehicle. If a sticker is attached to the car, the driver behind will already foresee possible options and avoid an accident, guided by the necessary and safer distance.
- Studded tires are often of poor quality. Often the spikes fly right out from under the wheels. If several negative factors coincide, such as a rather high speed of a car with a stud, the proximity of another vehicle, the desired trajectory of a stud that has jumped out of the wheel, all this leads to damage to the windows of nearby cars. In addition to the departure of spikes, stones often fly out from under the wheels of a reinforced car, which, in turn, also serve as a source of damage to neighboring vehicles.
All these reasons and there is a need to install a sign that warns drivers, “a modernized car is nearby, be careful!” This designation is designed for visibility from a long distance, about 20 meters. If the car has tinted windows, the “SPIKES” sign should be fixed on the outside of the glass.
There are such “carriers” who ignore legal requirements, not realizing that they will have to pay for their “jambs”. And it's not about the fines.
Imagine a situation in which an accident occurs. A car with ordinary wheels crashed into a fancy car with spikes. If we disassemble the formalities, then he is the culprit of the collision, but if we look at the situation, then he may well go to court against another motorist for carelessness and the absence of a sticker denoting spikes.
Judicial practice shows that in such cases, responsibility is divided in half, and this is a very important point related to vehicle insurance. When settled by the insurance company, drivers repair their cars themselves.
With respect for yourself and others on the road, you will avoid unpleasant collisions that can not only damage the vehicle, but also be a threat to the health and life of people.
Does the absence of a sign affect seasonality?
Spring has come, and you changed your "shoes" on the car, and the sign remained in its place of your AC, this fact is not terrible. It is not an offense. Of course, if the tires were replaced with a summer version, the sign is somewhat inappropriate, the owner of the car decides here whether to remove the warning or not.
Government Decree No. 333 on amendments to the Rules of the Road!
Briefly reviewing the document issued by the government, the situation is as follows:
- Several limited the rights of drivers whose experience is less than two years. They have no right to take other mechanical vehicles for towing with their car. They cannot also transport people on their motorcycle with categories A, A1, and it is forbidden to transport people on a moped regardless of the category.
- Those who are new to the road and have only recently received a license are strictly prohibited from entering the road without a “Beginner Driver” sign so as not to cause an emergency. If the driver nevertheless, despite the ban, entered the roadway without a sign, he may be subject to a fine or administrative liability. It is not necessary to place such a designation only on mopeds, motorcycles, self-propelled machines and tractors. All these necessary measures, according to the government of the Russian Federation, are aimed at reducing the number of accidents on the roads, in which beginners are often to blame.
- The rules of the road prohibit motorcyclists to move on the motorway at a speed of more than 110 km/h, on other roads the speed should not exceed 90 km/h. The changes took place in the maximum speed mode, before the speed was limited everywhere to 90 km / h.
Here, briefly about the changes that were the main ones and made to the traffic rules in the spring of 2017.
Sizes of a sign for self-production
Any driver who has studded their wheels can purchase a badge from an auto shop, but you can also make your own. When making your own, you need to take into account the necessary conditions:
- It must be triangular in shape, in the middle with the letter W written in black on a white background.
- In order for the sign to be visible at a fairly large distance, its parameters must be 20 cm or more. The sides of the figure are equal to each other.
- The red border along the edges of the triangular background is at least 10% of the size of the side length.
There is a special regulation for the manufacture of the sign personally, where the size is specified. It is regulated by traffic rules. A4 cut sheet is ideal for one length of 20 cm.
Making Tips:
If you decide not to engage in "needlework", but to buy a ready-made identification mark, consider the following:
Pictograms in the finished form often do not correspond to the established sizes. If you install a sign that does not meet the requirements, you can get into an unpleasant situation. After all, a small pictogram will not legally count, and you will be fined.
Where to install the sign
Following what is stated in paragraph 8 of the main rules, it can be understood that the main requirement for installing a pictogram is to attach it to the rear of the car, so that everyone who rides behind can clearly see.
There is no other information on this subject. Therefore, each driver can, bypassing his vehicle, think about where the best location of an important alert will be. This can be the rear window on the outer or inner side, some part of the luggage compartment, the rear side of the body, an awning or a bumper. The main thing is that there is enough space for the identification badge and its attachment.
Penalty for the absence of the sign "Sh"
Since April 04, 2017, not having a sticker has become equated to breakdowns or other malfunctions of the vehicle. Considering that if a car has malfunctions or other prohibitive actual conditions for its operation, penalties are imposed, when driving onto the roadway, it means that the absence of a sign is also subject to penalties.
Traffic police officers can be issued according to:
Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, Article 12.5. Driving a vehicle in the presence of malfunctions or conditions under which the operation of vehicles is prohibited, or a vehicle on which the identification mark "Disabled" is illegally installed
1. Driving a vehicle in the presence of malfunctions or conditions under which, in accordance with the Basic Provisions for the admission of vehicles to operation and the duties of officials to ensure road safety, the operation of the vehicle is prohibited, with the exception of malfunctions and conditions specified in parts 2 - 7 of this article,
entails a warning or the imposition of an administrative a fine of five hundred rubles.
Penalties for non-compliant tires
It is clear that as soon as the "re-shoe" of the rubber has occurred, it is immediately necessary to glue the badge. Usually, drivers change wheels according to the weather conditions of their region. Everywhere conditions are different. The legislation provides for a reduction in fines for non-compliance of rubber with the season from five to two thousand rubles and gives the right to the constituent entities of the Russian Federation to determine the seasonality and the number of summer and winter months themselves.
There were several bills that decided which months to limit summer tires. For studded tires, the period was assumed to be from November 1 to March 31. For non-studded wheels, the restriction was generally proposed to be removed. If the draft law was violated, the drivers had to be fined from 1 to 5 thousand rubles. Regional decisions on their own bans were also envisaged here. This policy has caused controversy and controversy.
Now there is a new project that has come into force since 2015, which applies to all countries participating in the Customs Union. Based on this law, it is prohibited to operate a vehicle in the winter period without a complete set of wheels corresponding to the seasons. The ban on studded wheels is in effect from June to August.
At the moment, there is no specific answer to the question, since legislators cannot decide what period of the year which tires should be changed, how much poor drivers should be fined, and meanwhile, each traffic police officer is free to do whatever he pleases and repair his reprisal on the road. You often hear complaints from motorists that they find fault with trifles, they say, they hung a sticker in the wrong place, but outweigh it, again nit-picking and sometimes fines.
One was fined for one thousand rubles, the second for two, is it really so difficult to solve such a simple and obvious question, and finally, to start repairing roads on which you can leave not only spikes, but also wheels.
Passing inspection without the sign "Ш"
The intention to pass the technical inspection with studded wheels without the identification mark "Spikes" will fail. Without it, you should not even try to obtain a permit to operate the vehicle. Since there is a fine for a car malfunction, and the absence of a sign, this is a malfunction, the driver will urgently have to run to the store and purchase a sign.
There is an option to pass inspection on a different rubber. Let's put it down, before checking the readiness of the vehicle for operation, you changed the wheels and put on ordinary winter tires, and for the duration of the inspection, but "the skin is not worth the candle." The sign in the store will cost 100 rubles, and replacing the wheels is much more expensive. So, do not neglect the advice on acquiring this sign, if you are determined to drive in bad weather on studded tires, take care of compliance with traffic laws.
Outcome
A necessity on the roads is mutual respect and mutual concessions. Part of that kind of respect for others is putting an important and warning sticker on the side of your motor vehicle, like the "THORNS" sign. It will help to avoid conflicts on the freeway and negative situations between drivers.
