Quite a few motorists practice the habit of skipping an intersection when the traffic light is yellow. However, not only is this quite dangerous, but it also turns
The incident that formed the basis of the case, which became a subject of consideration by the Supreme Court in early December this year, took place on January 16, 2022 at the intersection of Slavy Street and Bumazhnikov Passage in the city of Syktyvkar. The main character was local resident Alexey Kh, who crossed the intersection in his Skoda Octavia at the beginning of eight o’clock in the evening when the traffic light turned yellow. The driver did not take into account that this maneuver of his was recorded by a camera that automatically registered traffic violations. Apparently he was unaware of its existence.
The material was sent to the local automatic fixation center. During the inspection there, however, it turned out that this was not the first time that Mr. Earlier, on May 17, 2021, it turned out that he had also jumped a prohibition signal and was recorded by a police camera. He was subsequently fined 1,000 rubles under Part 1 of Art. 12.12 of the Code of Administrative Offenses for “driving through a prohibition light signal or following the prohibition gesture of a traffic controller.” Less than a year has passed between May 2021 and January 2022.
The citizen therefore turned out to be a repeat offender. That is to say, his “exceeding” was already within the jurisdiction of Part 3 of the same article. 12.12 Code of Administrative Offenses. In case of repeated violation, this implies a fine of 5,000 rubles or deprivation of “rights” for 4 to 6 months.
Since the case concerned the possibility of depriving a citizen of his driver’s license, it was sent to the Magistrate’s Court of the Emvalsky judicial district of the Ezhvinsky district of the city of Syktyvkar, where on April 15 our hero was fined 5,000 ruble was imposed. , 2022. Note that in this case the driver was not threatened with deprivation of his driver’s license: he was “beaten” by the camera. If the ‘slip’ had attracted the attention of the traffic police patrol, his chances of being left without a ‘permit’ would have been extremely high.
However, the driver did not agree with the verdict. Convinced that he had not committed a criminal offense, he appealed the judge’s decision. And eventually reached the Supreme Court. There they looked at the video recording from the traffic police camera, which immortalized the described events, and came to the conclusion that the car clearly passed the intersection “on yellow”.
In its ruling, the Supreme Court referred to Article 6.2 of the traffic regulations, according to which a yellow traffic light prohibits traffic. Except in cases where the car, after being turned on, cannot stop without making an emergency stop, already stops behind the stop line, hinders pedestrians or will lead to other similar consequences.
On this basis, the Supreme Court upheld the decisions of all lower authorities and left the citizen empty-handed.
