A pedestrian. Pedestrian safety (continued)

The Road Traffic Regulations define the general responsibilities of pedestrians

. Let's look at the main ones.

• Pedestrians must move on sidewalks or pedestrian paths, or, if there are none, along the roadsides. (If there are no sidewalks, footpaths or shoulders, or if it is impossible to move along them, pedestrians may move along a bicycle path or walk one after another along the edge of the roadway.)
• On a country road, pedestrians must walk towards the movement of vehicles. Pedestrians using non-motorized wheelchairs, as well as those driving a bicycle, moped or motorcycle next to them, must follow the direction of travel of vehicles.
• Pedestrians can cross the carriageway at pedestrian crossings, or, if there are none, at intersections along sidewalks or roadsides.
• In the absence of a pedestrian crossing or intersection, a pedestrian is allowed to cross the road at right angles to the edge of the roadway in an area without a dividing strip or fences. In this case, the road should be clearly visible in both directions.
• When there is a traffic controller on the road, pedestrians must follow his signals; pedestrian traffic can also be regulated by a pedestrian traffic light; In the absence of a traffic controller and a pedestrian traffic light, you must be guided by the signals of the transport traffic light.
• At unregulated pedestrian crossings, pedestrians may enter the roadway only after they have assessed the distance to approaching vehicles and are sure that the crossing will be safe.
• When crossing the roadway outside a pedestrian crossing, pedestrians should be especially careful. A pedestrian should not enter the roadway due to any obstacle (a car standing at the sidewalk, etc.) that interferes with the view of the roadway until he is sure that there are no approaching vehicles.
• Once on the roadway, pedestrians should not linger or stop unless this is related to ensuring traffic safety.
• Pedestrians who do not have time to complete the crossing must stop on the center line separating traffic flows in opposite directions. It will be possible to continue the crossing only after making sure that further movement is safe and if the traffic light signal (regulator) allows the crossing.
• When approaching a car with a blue flashing light and a special sound signal on, pedestrians are required to refrain from crossing the roadway, and those on the roadway must immediately clear it (step back or quickly cross to the right side), giving way to such a car.

• Pedestrian behavior patterns

when organizing traffic.

Pedestrians must move on sidewalks, pedestrian paths, bicycle and pedestrian paths, and, if there are none, along the roadsides. Pedestrians carrying or carrying bulky objects, as well as persons using non-motorized wheelchairs, may walk along the edge of the roadway if their movement on sidewalks or shoulders creates an obstacle for other pedestrians. 4.1.

If there are no sidewalks, pedestrian paths, bicycle paths or shoulders, and also if it is impossible to move along them, pedestrians can move along a bicycle path or walk in one row along the edge of the roadway (on roads with a dividing strip - along the outer edge of the roadway). 4.1.

When walking along the edge of the roadway, pedestrians must walk towards the movement of vehicles. Persons moving in wheelchairs without a motor, driving a motorcycle, moped, or bicycle, in these cases must follow the direction of travel of the vehicles. 4.1.

When driving along the side of the road or the edge of the roadway in the dark or in conditions of insufficient visibility, pedestrians are recommended to carry objects with reflective elements and ensure that these objects are visible to vehicle drivers. 4.1.

The movement of organized pedestrian columns along the roadway is permitted only in the direction of movement of vehicles on the right side of no more than four people in a row. In front and behind the column on the left side there should be escorts with red flags, and in the dark and in conditions of poor visibility - with lights on: in front - white, in back - red. 4.2.

Groups of children are allowed to drive only on sidewalks and pedestrian paths, and in their absence, along the roadsides, but only during daylight hours and only when accompanied by adults. 4.2.

Pedestrians must cross the roadway at pedestrian crossings, including underground and overground ones, and in their absence, at intersections along sidewalks or curbs. 4.3.

If there is no crossing or intersection in the visibility zone, it is allowed to cross the road at right angles to the edge of the roadway in areas without a dividing strip and fences where it is clearly visible in both directions. 4.3

.

In places where traffic is regulated, pedestrians must be guided by the signals of a traffic controller or a pedestrian traffic light, and in its absence, a transport traffic light. 4.4.

At unregulated pedestrian crossings, pedestrians can enter the roadway after assessing the distance to approaching vehicles, their speed and making sure that the crossing will be safe for them. When crossing a roadway outside a pedestrian crossing, pedestrians must, in addition, not interfere with the movement of vehicles and exit from behind a standing vehicle or other obstacle that limits visibility without making sure that there are no approaching vehicles. 4.5.

Once on the roadway, pedestrians should not linger or stop unless this is related to ensuring traffic safety. Pedestrians who do not have time to complete the crossing must stop on the line dividing traffic flows in opposite directions. You can continue crossing only after making sure that further movement is safe and taking into account the traffic light signal (traffic controller). 4.6.

When approaching vehicles with a blue flashing light (blue and red) and a special sound signal on, pedestrians are required to refrain from crossing the roadway, and pedestrians on it must immediately vacate the roadway. 4.7.

Waiting for a route vehicle and a taxi is allowed only on landing platforms raised above the roadway, and if there are none, on the sidewalk or side of the road. In stopping places for route vehicles that are not equipped with raised landing platforms, it is allowed to enter the roadway to board the vehicle only after it has stopped. After disembarking, it is necessary to clear the roadway without delay. 4.8.

When moving across the roadway to or from the stopping point of a route vehicle, pedestrians must be guided by the requirements of paragraphs 4.4 - 4.7 of the Rules.

2. Models of behavior of cyclists when organizing traffic.

Responsibilities of cyclists.

24.1. Cyclists over 14 years of age must use bicycle paths, bicycle pedestrian paths, or bicycle lanes.

24.2. Cyclists over 14 years of age are allowed:

• along the right edge of the roadway - in the following cases:

• there are no bicycle and bicycle pedestrian paths, a lane for cyclists, or there is no opportunity to move along them; the overall width of the bicycle, its trailer or the cargo being transported exceeds 1 m; cyclists move in columns;
• there are no bicycle and bicycle pedestrian paths, a lane for cyclists, or there is no opportunity to move along them;
• the overall width of the bicycle, its trailer or the cargo being transported exceeds 1 m;
• cyclists move in columns;

• on the side of the road - if there are no bicycle and bicycle pedestrian paths, a lane for cyclists, or there is no opportunity to move along them or along the right edge of the roadway;

• on the sidewalk or pedestrian path - in the following cases:

• there are no bicycle and bicycle pedestrian paths, a lane for cyclists, or there is no opportunity to move along them, as well as along the right edge of the roadway or shoulder; a cyclist accompanies a cyclist under 7 years of age or transports a child under 7 years of age on an additional seat, in a bicycle stroller or in a trailer designed for use with a bicycle. However, if you simply roll your bike nearby, you are automatically considered a pedestrian, which means you can walk on the sidewalk. The same applies to crossing an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing: dismounted, you can enjoy the privileges of pedestrians and cross the road with a bicycle, having priority over motor vehicles
• there are no bicycle and bicycle pedestrian paths, a lane for cyclists, or there is no opportunity to move along them, as well as along the right edge of the roadway or shoulder;
• a cyclist accompanies a cyclist under 7 years of age or transports a child under 7 years of age on an additional seat, in a bicycle stroller or in a trailer designed for use with a bicycle.
• However, if you simply roll your bike nearby, you are automatically considered a pedestrian, which means you can walk on the sidewalk. The same applies to crossing an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing: dismounted, you can enjoy the privileges of pedestrians and cross the road with a bicycle, having priority over motor vehicles

24.3. The movement of cyclists aged 7 to 14 years should be carried out only on sidewalks, pedestrian, bicycle and pedestrian paths, as well as within pedestrian zones.

24.4. Cyclists under 7 years of age should only ride on sidewalks, pedestrian and bicycle paths (on the pedestrian side), as well as within pedestrian zones.

24.5. When cyclists move along the right edge of the roadway in the cases provided for by these Rules, cyclists must move only in one row.

A column of cyclists may move in two rows if the overall width of the bicycles does not exceed 0.75 m.

The column of cyclists must be divided into groups of 10 cyclists in the case of single-lane traffic, or into groups of 10 pairs in the case of double-lane traffic. To facilitate overtaking, the distance between groups should be 80 - 100 m.

24.6. If the movement of a cyclist on a sidewalk, pedestrian path, shoulder or within pedestrian zones endangers or interferes with the movement of other persons, the cyclist must dismount and follow the requirements provided for by these Rules for the movement of pedestrians.

24.8. Cyclists are prohibited from:

• ride a bicycle without holding the handlebars with at least one hand;
• transport cargo that protrudes beyond the dimensions by more than 0.5 m in length or width, or cargo that interferes with control;
• transport passengers if this is not provided for by the design of the vehicle;
• transport children under 7 years of age in the absence of specially equipped places for them;
• turn left or turn around on roads with tram traffic and on roads with more than one lane for traffic in a given direction;
• cross the road at pedestrian crossings.

24.9. Towing of bicycles, as well as towing with bicycles and mopeds, is prohibited, except for towing a trailer designed for use with a bicycle or moped.

24.10. When driving at night or in conditions of poor visibility, cyclists are advised to carry items with reflective elements and ensure that these items are visible to drivers of other vehicles.

3. Patterns of passenger behavior during traffic management

4. Models of behavior of vehicle drivers when organizing traffic.

Nine unwritten rules for drivers

Traffic rules require compliance from all drivers. If everyone drives as they know how, want or as they like, chaos will begin on the road, resulting in injuries, accidents and death.

The driver must be clear

What this phrase means is that the driver must be predictable on the track. Thus, such predictability includes the smoothness of all maneuvers, timely change of lanes before a turn, exit, etc. On the road, you must give signals about your actions - turn on your turn signals, including for pedestrians.

Calculate your movements several steps ahead

Professional drivers are different from those who drive according to traffic rules

A professional always pays attention to the situation around his car and tries to predict the actions of other motorists and pedestrians

Of course, you can’t learn this right away; it’s something at the level of intuition that comes with driving experience. As practice shows, experienced drivers can tell that the next car will soon be turning, and its driver has not even turned on the turn signal yet.

Looking at the back of your head

Many drivers are mistaken in believing that they should only look in their mirrors when changing lanes. But that's not true. You need to constantly look at them every 20-25 seconds, even if you are driving on an empty road.

It is important to know what is happening not only in front, but also behind the car. After all, if any obstacle arises ahead, you need to know whether to brake sharply or try to go around it

Think ahead

Here we will give a simple example. If the driver sees that a red traffic light is on ahead, it is recommended to take your foot off the gas and stop smoothly. Or, you notice that a truck is trying to overtake, you don’t need to overtake with it, so that later you don’t have to brake sharply and create an emergency situation on the road.

Make way for the "fools"

This is the golden rule. After all, emergency situations on the road often arise not because someone does not know the traffic rules, but because someone is in a hurry and does not comply with them at all.

At a distance from the inadequate

Always try to keep your distance from bad drivers. If you observe that someone is speeding at a prohibited speed, playing checkers on the road, driving fast, and then suddenly braking for no apparent reason, then it is better to stay away from such motorists. It is possible that the driver is under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or is simply an inadequate person.

Hold the steering wheel with both hands

Modern cars amaze with luxury and ease of operation, as a result of which many drivers hold the steering wheel with one hand. After all, it is light. But you need to hold the steering wheel with both hands not because you want to hold it, but because you need to turn it in time if an obstacle arises. But it is difficult to do this with one hand.

Safe speed limit only

The safest speed is 5 or 10 km/h higher than the total flow. But in Russian realities, all drivers already drive 20 km/h faster than recommended, so it’s better to adapt to the flow. In addition, it is recommended to take into account the number of cars on the road, the condition of your own car and the track itself.

Safe distance on the road

Accidents often occur on the highway due to failure to maintain a safe distance. You can drive relatively fast, be close to other cars, and have no consequences. Or you can drive at a speed of 50 km/h and get into an accident if you press too hard against the driver in front.
