Capital money sucker: a cunning trap camera appeared in Moscow
There are many difficult intersections in the Mother See, where even an experienced driver can easily make a mistake. What the city government successfully uses, “monetize” these intersections by installing traffic cameras. The AvtoVzglyad portal tells about such a trap.

The desire of the authorities to get into the pocket of an honest “mate” seems to have only grown stronger with the crisis. Many media have written more than once about signs that are placed incorrectly or in such a way that they are not visible. And about the cameras that ‘get wrong’, harshly fine motorists. One of them controls the exit from the inner part of the Third Ring Road at the Nizhnyaya Maslovka section to Marina Raskova Street. Apparently, the scheme worked out there seemed to work the cunning businessmen, and now it is used more elegantly, so that it is impossible to find fault.

So Znamenskaya Street, in the east of Moscow, has always been very quiet. There are few cars and accidents rarely happen here. However, general urbanization has reached the quietest corners of the city. At first, many signs appeared, from which the locals still wrinkle their eyes. And recently a traffic camera was installed on a pole at House 23. She “guards” the intersection with Potions Lane. And fines if the driver did not stop before the stop line. Well, the STOP sign is stuck nearby. It is clearly visible in the photo. And everything seems to be according to the rules: a mosquito will not undermine the nose. In reality, this is a typical trap.

The driver approaching the intersection along Znamenskaya Street should assess the situation. The view to the left is excellent. There are no questions for this. But on the right, moving cars are not visible at all due to the facade of the house, trees and parking. And even stopping at the stop line does not improve vision. The gaze rests on a large pillar, behind which a large tree grows, and behind it – again parked cars.

To notice even large vehicles, you need to drive past the sign. Only then will a complete and clear picture emerge. And this is a fine that is almost impossible to contest. No one will move the pole and also saw green spots. So the trap “settled” in the area for a long time. The saddest thing is that there are still a number of similar places to be found in the area. That is, the appearance of a “money sucker” and there is a matter of time. Drivers – be careful!
