What our compatriots simply do not hang on the dashboard, windscreen and rear-view mirror. However, a seemingly harmless accessory hanging in the passenger compartment of a car can play a cruel prank on the driver. Why, explains the portal “AvtoVzglyad”.
If there is a smell dangling from the rear view mirror and a radar detector flaunts on the windshield, then the car owner will have no problems. But in the event that the interior of the car turns into a supermarket shop window, then wait for trouble. For example, innocent-looking boxing gloves or cuddly toys adorning the interior of a car can result in a fine for the driver.
The fact is that in the “List of malfunctions in which the operation of vehicles is prohibited” it is indicated: it is forbidden to drive a car if additional items are installed or coatings are applied that limit visibility from the driver’s seat. In other words, clause 7.3 of the SDA “Other Structural Elements” does not allow driving a car when something obstructs normal vision, creating a risk of an accident.
According to paragraph 1 of Art. 12.5 of the Administrative Code, the fine for “hangers” limiting visibility is 500 rubles. Admittedly, if desired, roadside officers can limit themselves to a verbal warning. But you still have to remove the jewelry.
By the way, for those who are not in the know, we remind that it is not recommended to install additional “prichindala” not only on the windshield of the car, but also on its back. It also poses a threat to the driver and his companions, as well as other road users. Again due to limited visibility from the cab.
Although, oddly enough, the rules provide for the possibility of hanging a decorative curtain or blinds on the stern. But provided that there are adapted side rear-view mirrors on both sides of the vehicle body.
Meanwhile, cameras for automatic photographic fixation of traffic violations are often fined for accessories hanging around the cab. Moreover, even the State Duma was concerned about the regularity of such “appearances”: for more details, see here.
