Many residents of the central regions of Russia go to Belarus for summer vacation: lakes, nature, reasonable prices and a limit on a civil passport are enough conditions that allow you to make a choice in favor of your closest neighbor. Of course we go by car, because the route is ideal, wide and traffic jam-free over the entire distance, and in Belarus itself there is an autobahn with virtually no restrictions.
The speed limit for passenger cars is 120 km/h, but it is no secret to anyone that the fines received remain there: so far it has not been possible to achieve full database synchronization by number. And let’s face it, it’s unlikely to succeed in the foreseeable future. Stepping on the gas without fear and reproach? The first revelation for a Russian driver in Belarus will be the “non-penalty threshold” – only 10 km / h, as opposed to 20 Russian ones. And the second – the violation will necessarily be punished. And very, very fast.
There are still police on the roads there, and a Belarusian traffic cop works with the good old “hair dryer”, the existence of which has already been forgotten in Russia. The offender stops, receives a ticket, and then receives an offer to pay a fine on the spot. No, not in your pocket. Moreover, it is not worth offering to solve the problem “amicably”, because for this you can even go to prison – give a bribe to an official on duty. And the deadlines in Belarus after the well-known events are generously distributed. The fine is paid in cash or by card at the terminal, the employee enters the data into the database and lets go. This is the first option, but there is also a second one.
