From empty to empty: passed a law regulating the installation of cameras on the roads

Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law regulating the installation of photo and video cameras on the road. This will take effect on 1 September 2024 and from that moment on, caier owners must meet a number of conditions for their placement. That still doesn’t stop anyone from using drivers-hated gadgets as an ambush, though.

So, in particular, the document already prescribes 150-300 meters from the zone controlled by the device to install a road sign warning of the operation of restraint systems (however, now they can be placed not only by regional authorities, but also by the owners of the highway in cooperation with the Ministry of the Interior). There is also a list of places where cameras are allowed to be installed. These include intersections, pedestrian crossings, hazardous sections of highways and streets (i.e., those with four or more accidents during the year), roads with a dedicated public transportation lane, roadworks, and areas with prohibited parking or stopping.

In a word, this novella did not bring fundamental changes to the car life of the country, because the head of state simply collected previously existing regulations on this issue and combined them into one document, giving it the status of a federal law.
