Another holiday season has highlighted a curious new police fashion of elegant “divorce for money” motorists. The victims are mainly lovers of long-distance travel and conquerors of relatively
Hugely expensive foreign holidays this summer forced a large part of the holidaymakers to forget about the warm seas and run across the vastness of the motherland in their own car. As a result, motorized tourists appeared in the remote and hitherto sparsely populated corners of our vast country. And a normal car traveler, planning to climb even into the relative wilderness, will not forget to take with him a can of gasoline or diesel: in case suddenly there will be problems with refueling near a remote place for outdoor recreation.
This is what the crafty traffic cops in the outback started using. The fact that the vast majority of motorists have no idea of ​​the rules for transporting hazardous liquids (especially petrol) in a car plays into their hands. Taking advantage of the fact that terrorists and saboteurs are now feared everywhere in our country, traffic police officers, having stopped a paroled “stray Muscovite”, ask him to simply show the trunk. No, no, no search, God forbid – you just have to look inside and be sure, dear driver!
And when the soldiers see a bus there, or even better a few, they start their circus. A pier, transport regulations for dangerous liquids are violated. And they even show the text of Art. 12.21.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses “Violation of the rules for the transport of dangerous goods.” The first part threatens the driver with a fine of up to 2,500 rubles or deprivation of “rights” for up to six months. And the car must be sent to the impound.
A person going on vacation is categorically not attracted by such a prospect and, as a rule, is ready to give bribes to “vigilant inspectors” so that they get behind him. Part 1, article 12.21.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses does not apply at all to private drivers. Part 2 of the same 12.21.2 is provided for them. The maximum penalty for this is a fine of 1,500 rubles and no deprivation of the VU!
As for the rules for the transportation of gasoline for personal use, they are regulated by the European Agreement on the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR) and are simple to the point of primitive. The driver must not carry more than 240 liters of fuel at a time in his vehicle, in containers not exceeding 60 liters each, and ensure that none of these leak or drip under normal driving conditions. These are the exhaustive requirements stated in paragraph 1.1 of Art. 31 of the Russian Law “On Highways and Road Operations”. It is to him that paragraph 23.5 of the Russian traffic rules refers.
So, even if you take at least a dozen standard jerry cans of gasoline or diesel in the trunk, and a particularly “smart” traffic police officer decides to sort them out on the way, you just need to list the above item numbers and document names. He will immediately understand everything and will be left in good health with the legally savvy “wise man”.
