The maximum width of the transported cargo, height and weight must not only comply with the dimensions of the vehicle, but also fit the rules of carriage approved by regulatory documents. For the majority of cargo transportation, coordination is not required, as the products are easily placed in the back of a car of the appropriate size and carrying capacity. When transporting bulky and heavy items, you must follow the rules.

Traffic regulations regarding the carriage of goods

The rules of the road, operating in the territory of the Russian Federation, clearly defined the maximum allowable dimensions of the goods transported by road, as well as the mass and purpose of products. The owner of a truck when performing a commercial flight or when using equipment in person must comply with the following requirements:

  • Each vehicle has a maximum permissible load on each axle as established by the manufacturer. These parameters must be observed under all conditions.
  • Dimensions of the width of the transported cargo, its length and height are not significant in case of poor installation and fastening of products in the car body. For placement and fixation of goods is the responsibility of the driver.
  • Transportation of cargo must be carried out without limiting the driver’s view, creating traffic obstructions, including other vehicles.
  • The maximum length of the transported cargo must match the size of the body. If the product is more than a meter, it requires a special designation. With a higher excess, the product falls under the category of large-size and is indicated by special signs.
  • The permitted dimensions of the cargo carried in width and height are also strictly regulated.
  • Transportation of products that pose a danger to the public, or with overall parameters in width, height or length of 2.55 meters, 4 meters and 20 meters, respectively, falls under the oversized category. In such cases, the rules provide for the issuance of a special permit.

Cargo taxi "Gazelkin" will transport any product, including large-sized. Our equipment fully complies with the requirements of traffic police regulations, and transportation is carried out with the necessary precautions.

Responsibility for exceeding the dimensions of the transported cargo or transportation conditions

Compliance with the restrictions on the height of the transported cargo, the maximum allowed width and length is a prerequisite for each carrier. Cargo taxi "Gazelkin" bears full responsibility for compliance with the requirements of regulatory documents and does not take up work that does not comply with the rules of traffic regulations.

Cargo safety and road safety are the main criteria for this kind of work. The admission of the dimensions of the transported goods is checked by the police, and if the conditions are not observed, penalties are imposed:

  • In the absence of designations on the cargo, protruding beyond the body.
  • If the transportation of large-sized or oversized products is carried out without a special permit or for any requirements does not meet the information in the document.
  • Penalties apply if the maximum permissible axle load is exceeded.
  • Violation of traffic rules by drivers who transport products or items is not allowed.
  • If the shipper has submitted incorrect information about the composition, weight and dimensions of the goods, he is also subject to sanctions.
  • Not the dimensions of the cargoes transported by road, transported in excess of the permissible vehicle weight, lead to the removal of the vehicle from the route.

When accepting an order, loading and fixing it in the body, it is necessary to take into account that the fine is imposed on the driver, officials and the owner of the transport company.

Basic rules for the carriage of oversized cargo

The maximum allowable height of the transported cargo from the ground or the permitted width of the transported cargo on the trailer, as well as the mass of products are not the only criteria for high-quality and safe transportation. Freight taxi "Gazelkin" when taking orders takes into account a large number of factors that allow to perform the work as efficiently and effectively as possible.

Qualified employees have the exact information on how much you can transport by length according to the rules, how to lay and fix various objects in the body, with what parameters a permit is required. In order that the customer does not have problems, the following requirements are met:

  • At the bottom of the body are placed heavier items. Such an arrangement makes it possible to achieve greater vehicle stability and, consequently, driving safety.
  • Products are placed in the body evenly, and the gaps between objects are filled with soft linings, foam and other similar materials.
  • All products in the body are carefully fixed, and during movement, control over deviations from the regular places is carried out. When any suspicion of products fastened again.
  • To inform other road users, on the extreme, protruding part of the sign "Bulky cargo". Possible additional installation of reflective elements.
  • When transporting special goods issued the appropriate permit.

Vehicles with an external and internal turning radius of no more than 12.5 and 5.3 meters, respectively, are allowed to use.

In accordance with the accepted rules, the cargo is suitable for large-sized with a total mass of loaded equipment not exceeding 38 tons, and also if its length and width does not exceed 24 and 2.55 meters, respectively, and the height is 2.5 meters. With any deviation, the products are oversized and require the issuance of a special permit.

Appealing to the Gazelkin cargo taxi is an opportunity to quickly and inexpensively resolve the issue of transporting any cargo, regardless of the distance of transportation. The presence of technically trained and serviceable machines of various capacities, as well as professional staff ensures impeccable execution of the application. The car will arrive at exactly the specified time to the right address, and all related questions can be discussed with the manager, available by phone or email.

Rules of the road of the Russian Federation regulate not only the order and principles of traffic and pedestrians on the roads of our country, but also what rights they have in the process of this movement. According to the provisions of the road legislation, drivers have the right to transport in their vehicles.

The latter is divided into overall and oversized, the transport of each of which is regulated by the road inspection in different ways. In today's material, our resource will consider in detail the traffic regulations regarding the transportation of oversized things, as well as penalties for their non-compliance.

Oversized cargo is bulky or overweight baggage

In the traffic regulations of the Russian Federation, the concept of “oversized cargo” is interpreted as “oversized or heavy luggage”. Regardless of the interpretation of the definitions, they are understood to mean that the load exceeds the legal norm allowed for a particular type of transport.

Before sending any baggage, it is extremely important to define this provision specifically for your case, so as not to run into traffic inspectors. To date, oversized cargo is considered to be luggage, which:

  • or significantly exceeds the size of the transport carrying it, as a result of which it is capable of blocking a part of the carriageway and creating a potential danger to other road users (large cargo);
  • or exceeds the parameter of the maximum allowable weight for the transport of transport (heavy cargo).
  • SDA define these concepts quite clearly, but it is worth understanding that their final interpretation depends on the transport on which the carriage of a particular cargo is considered. For example, with respect to the transportation of baggage on trucks, oversized cargo is any cargo that exceeds:
  1. 2.5 meters in height;
  2. 38 tons by weight;
  3. 24 meters long;
  4. 2, 55 meters wide.

Of course, if transportation is carried out on a small truck, then the calculation is carried out on the basis of its dimensions. But legally for freight traffic it is fixed above the parameters of oversized baggage.

Despite the relative subjectivity of the concept of “oversized cargo”, the traffic regulations of the Russian Federation say that baggage must be considered as such for all types of vehicles. More precisely, on the following:

  • the transported cargo protrudes 40 centimeters or more on the sides of the car and more than 1 meter behind and in front;
      The transported cargo exceeds the allowable weight for transportation on this vehicle.
  • That is, in the presence of the above circumstances, the traffic police officer has the full right to issue a penalty for the transportation of oversized cargo, but only with the condition that it is carried out in violation of the rules established by law.

Transportation rules

Oversized cargo should be transported according to the established rules.

As noted earlier, in the traffic regulations of the Russian Federation, not only the concept of “oversize” is indicated, but also the rules for its transportation. Observing those, you can avoid getting fines for transportation of oversized baggage. The general list of rules for the transportation of "oversized" is as follows:

  • A passenger car can carry cargo that does not exceed 2.55 meters in width, 2.5 meters in length and the weight of transportation allowed for this car. At the same time, oversized cargo must be installed in such a way that it does not close the view to the driver of the vehicle and is visible to other road users.
  • In addition, on the car you need to install a sign that says about the transportation of oversized cargo. Its size should be at least 40 by 40 cm, and it should also be reflective.
  • For other types of transport, the previously mentioned rules apply, which cannot be violated. In the process of transportation of "oversize", for example, a minibus or small truck must also be installed on the car.

In rare cases, it is permissible to transport oversized cargo in excess of normal dimensions, which are established by law. In such a case, it is necessary to obtain the appropriate rastsheniya, observe a number of rules of transportation and, if necessary, to enlist the escort (with a baggage width of more than 4 meters).

Such rules cannot be ignored, since for their non-observance in the territory of the Russian Federation some administrative responsibility is in effect. It should be noted that when drawing up a protocol, traffic police officers should take into account the permissible measurement error “+/- 10 centimeters”.

That is, given the size of the cargo that is transported by passenger car, 2.58 meters wide and 2.53 meters in length, the driver has the right to demand that he be released. Reference in this case is the corresponding decree of the authorized organizations (GOST).

Punishment for violations

For improper transportation - fine!

For the transport of oversized cargo on a vehicle with non-compliance with the rules of this procedure or with a strong excess of permissible standards, traffic police officers are entitled to impose on the driver.

If the rules for the transportation of "oversize" are enshrined in the traffic regulations of the Russian Federation, then violations for offenses regarding the transportation of such goods are governed by the Code of Administrative Offenses (CAO). According to Article 12.21 of the Code for the improper transportation of oversized cargo, the following types of penalties may be imposed:

  • for the driver - either a fine from 1 500 to 2 500 rubles, or deprivation of rights for a period of 2 to 4 months;
  • for the official who allowed this type of transportation in violation - a fine of 15,000 to 20,000 rubles;
  • for a legal entity, that is, an organization whose driver transported the cargo in violation of the law - up to 500,000 rubles.

It should be noted that responsibility is not always imposed on the officials and legal entities, as a rule, it is the driver who is punished. Despite this, by decision of a judicial body or in some other situations, all subjects of legal relations who are somehow guilty of improper transportation of “oversize” can suffer.

It is important to understand that the size, severity and other nuances of penalties for such misconduct depends on how seriously the rules were violated. The “seriousness” of the violation is determined based on the presence of such circumstances as:

  1. the presence or absence of warning signs and their compliance with the norms;
  2. correct placement of cargo and its dimension;
  3. the speed of the car that was transporting oversized cargo.

Of course, if the “oversize” was transported without special signs, blocked the review to the driver and was potentially dangerous for other road users, then the punishment could be the most serious. But in that case, if the rules of carriage were observed, but the special sign was absent, the driver is fully entitled to expect a relatively frivolous penalty from the traffic police.

In any case, when transporting oversized cargo on a particular type of transport, you need to follow the traffic rules. It is important to bear in mind that some violations in the process of transportation of such baggage can be dangerous not only for the driver who was carrying it, but also for other road users. Are the health or even the lives of people worth transporting large loads? Definitely not.

In general, the rules for the transportation of “oversize” are quite accessible and clearly articulated in the traffic regulations of the Russian Federation, and the penalties for their violation are in the Administrative Code. You can get acquainted with them most accurately if you thoroughly study the 23rd chapter of the Road Code and 12.21 article of the code, the main information from these legislative acts was presented in today's article. We hope the material was useful for you and gave answers to your questions. Good luck on the roads!

What fines threaten for non-compliance with the rules of transportation of oversized cargo? Look for answers in the video:

In a passenger car cargo can be transported in the cabin, in the trunk, and on the trunk. But in compliance with certain requirements.

1. Shipping is prohibited if it restricts the driver to review.

If the transported cargo covers the rear view, then this is permissible only if the car is equipped on both sides with exterior mirrors.

However, if the cargo closes the view on the right or left, or, God forbid, in front, then the transportation of such cargo is strictly prohibited.

2. Shipping is prohibited if it makes it difficult to drive a vehicle.

To place the load, the driver strongly moved his seat forward.

Now it will be difficult to drive a car. And, therefore, such shipping is prohibited.

3. Shipping is prohibited if it violates the stability of the vehicle.

The car is sensitive to the displacement of the center of gravity. If the load is heavy, then with such an arrangement, the car will inevitably pull to the left.

And it’s better not to talk about turns or turns.

This is how to arrange the load. And does not contradict the requirements of the Rules.

4. Shipping is prohibited if it closes external lighting devices, as well as registration or identification marks.

I can not imagine the load that closes the headlights, and even more so, the front rooms. That is, you can imagine - let's say the load on the trunk and hangs to the ground. But in this case, the load necessarily closes the driver review. And this alone is enough for such shipping to become impossible.

But if the load closes rear   numbers and block rear   parking lights, it does not interfere with the move.

But the rules of such shipping is prohibited.

5. Shipping is prohibited if it interferes with the perception of signals given by hand.

The rules mean a situation when the direction indicators or brake lights are out of order and you need to get to your destination somehow. In this case, as you already know, the driver is obliged to give signals by hand. So, if the transported cargo prevents other drivers from seeing these signals, further movement is prohibited.

6. Shipping is prohibited if it is noisy, dusty and pollutes the environment.

How cargo can dust or pollute the environment, you can imagine. But how can he make a noise, by golly, I do not know.

7. If the load is in favor of the dimensions of the vehicle.

less than 1 meter ,

If the load is beyond the dimensions of the vehicle in front or behind more than 1 meter , then…

... during daylight, the load and the front and rear should be marked with the identification marks "Bulky cargo" ...

... and in the dark or in conditions of insufficient visibility, in addition to the sign in front, the load must be marked with a white lantern or retroreflector, and a red lantern or retroreflector behind it.

If the performance more than 2 behind meters, the transportation of such goods must be coordinated with the traffic police unit, on the territory of which the transportation route begins. That is, for us, this simply means that the transportation of such cargo is prohibited.

Interestingly, the rules did not limit the protrusion of the cargo in front. And, therefore, here the driver must focus on common sense.

8. If the load is in favor of the dimensions of the vehicle from the side.

As for the protrusion of the cargo from the side, here the Rules have set a difficult task for the drivers. It is necessary to measure the distance not from the extreme point of the size of the car, but from the edge of the side lamp.

If the protrusion of the load from the edge of the side lamp   does not exceed 0.4 meters, and the total width of the load   no more than 2.55 meters, nothing to worry about. You can safely carry such a load.

If the protrusion of the load from the edge of the side lamp exceeds 0.4 meters, but the width of the load is not more than 2.55 meters, it is permitted to transport such cargo. Only it should be marked.

During daylight, such a load must be marked on both sides with the identification marks “Bulky cargo”.

At night, and in conditions of insufficient visibility, the load, in addition to signs, must be marked in front with white lights or retro-reflectors, and behind them, red lights or retro-reflectors.

If the cargo width exceeds 2.55 meters (no matter how far it is from the side), consider that the carriage of such cargo is prohibited.

From time to time, any of our vehicles carries not only passengers, but also cargo. It is good if the goods are placed in the back or trunk, and sometimes it is necessary to carry and bulky cargo. And just then the question arises, how to transport the cargo, while not "fly" on a fine. And if there is a fine, what? We will talk about this.

Rules for the carriage of goods (speakers)

Before “diving” into the depths of all sorts of rules and laws, let us immediately say that we will be interested in cases concerning the carriage of goods up to a certain size, that is, we will not touch upon the topic of the carriage of oversized cargo. What we begin.
  The first thing to turn to is the traffic regulations. Here it is worth quoting 2 points:

23.4. The load, protruding beyond the dimensions of the vehicle from the front or rear more than 1 m or more than 0.4 m from the side from the outer edge of the side lamp, must be marked with the identification signs “Bulky cargo” and, in the dark, and in conditions of insufficient visibility In addition, a white lantern or retroreflector is in front, and a red lantern or retroreflector is behind it.

Here there will be such a picture. If the load is up to the specified dimensions and inclusive, then the sign is not needed.

Here you can say that if you violated the rules for the transport of non-bulky cargo, that is, up to these limits, the penalty will be minimal or even a warning. (Article 12.21 of the Code on Administrative Offenses). This applies to cases:



(requirements from the same traffic rules).

If the dimensions "got out" beyond these limits, then we hang a sign, or rather the sign "Bulky cargo." Does this mean that going beyond more than 1 meter back and forth, with respect to dimensions and more than 0.4 m on each side with respect to the side lamp, the vehicle will be bulky?
  Well, let's turn to 257 FZ, find a definition for a large-sized vehicle.

large vehicle - a vehicle whose dimensions with or without cargo exceed the permissible dimensions established by the Government of the Russian Federation

If at least one of the dimensions of the vehicle with the load exceeds the set value by the traffic regulations, the load is considered to be large

At the same time, bulky cargo of a certain size is required to be transported according to the rules, in accordance with paragraph 23.5 of traffic rules. We quote this item.

23.5. Transportation of heavy and dangerous goods, vehicle movement, the overall parameters of which with or without a load exceed 2.55 m in width (2.6 m for refrigerators and isothermal bodies), 4 m in height from the surface of the carriageway, in length ( including one trailer) 20 m, or the movement of a vehicle with a load protruding more than 2 m beyond the rear end of the vehicle, as well as the movement of road trains with two or more trailers are carried out in accordance with special rules. International road transport is carried out in accordance with the requirements for vehicles and transportation rules established by international treaties of the Russian Federation.

Note that we have not one size left, when the load of the rear is more than 1 meter, but up to 2 meters. In this case, a cargo with such a size is not required to be transported according to the rules, but it is necessary to attach a “Large-size cargo” sign to it.

Actually, you can already sum up some results.
  If the dimensions do not exceed 2.55 m in width, 20 m in length, 4 m from the road in height and 2 meters behind, then this even if it is a large cargo, is transported without special rules, that is, only according to traffic regulations.
  If the dimensions are more than that, then according to the federal law of the Russian Federation of November 8, 2007 No. 257-FZ “On Roads and Road Activities in the Russian Federation and on Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation” it is prohibited for users of highways carriage of large-sized cargoes by road without special permits.
We will not talk about these permissions, that is, as we said right at the beginning of our article, we only touch upon cases for ordinary motorists, and not for professional carriers. Tell us better about the fine, if your cargo is beyond the limits specified in the last picture.

Penalty for transporting protruding cargo (Article 12.21 and 12.21.1 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation)

It turns out three options with what may be a penalty for the goods. The first, when the requirements of traffic rules for shipping are violated:

Does not limit driver's review;
- does not complicate management and does not violate the stability of the vehicle;
- does not close external light devices and light reflectors, registration and identification marks, and also does not interfere with the perception of signals given by hand;
- does not create noise, does not dust, does not pollute the road and the environment.

The second is when it is necessary to install the sign “Bulky cargo”, in case the cargo is in favor of the clearance behind it more than 1 meter, but not more than 2 meters. If this sign is not installed, then ... For these two options, a fine will be issued under Article 12.21 of the Administrative Code of the RF.

Violation of the rules for the carriage of goods, as well as the rules of towing - entails a warning or the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of 500 rubles.

However, the third option is when the cargo is bulky, and, moreover, requires special permission, that is, it stands for dimensions. This will already be a penalty under Article 12.21.1 of the Administrative Code.

If the size is exceeded no more than 10 cm (without the issued permission available) - 1000-1500 rubles (physical person) (part 1);
- if the size is exceeded by 10–20 cm (without the issued permission available) - 3000–4000 rubles (physical person) (part 2);
- if the size is exceeded by 20-50 cm (without a issued permit available) - 5,000-10,000 rubles (physical person) (part 3);
- if you exceed the size of more than 50 cm (without issued permission in stock with or with it) - 7000-10000 rubles (physical person) or deprivation from 4 to 6 months (part 6).

Actually it is clear that the most terrible thing is if the load is more than 50 cm. In this case, a very large fine or deprivation of a special right for up to six months.

Detention of the vehicle during transportation of the protruding cargo

It is noteworthy that for violation in accordance with Article 12.21.1 of the Administrative Code of the RF, that is, for our third case, detention can be applied. This possibility is spelled out in article 27.13 of the Code of Administrative Offenses. Moreover, if your car can not be loaded onto a tow truck, you can simply install locking devices. We read 27.13 of the Administrative Code.

... If it is impossible according to the technical characteristics of the vehicle to be moved and placed on a specialized parking in case of an administrative offense provided for by paragraph 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 of Article 12.21.1 or Part 1 of Article 12.21.2 of this Code, the detention is by stopping movement with blocking devices.

In the end, and will stand up until you eliminate the reasons for the detention.

Is it possible to pay a penalty for a shipment at a discount of 50 percent

  If you still could not avoid the fine, you should not forget about article 32.2 of the Administrative Code of the RF. Thanks to her, respectable motorists have the opportunity to pay a fine at a discount of 50 percent. This article allows you to get a kind of "discount" if the penalty is paid on time from the moment it appears in the database of traffic police fines, but no later than 20 days from the date of the ruling.

Question-answer on the topic “Penalty for acting cargo”

Question: With what kind of cargo performance for clearance and side lights can you drive “painlessly” without installing signs?
Answer: Forward and backward no more than 1 meter relative to the dimension, up to 4 meters and on the sides no more than 0.4 meters relative to the side marker lamp.

Question: Up to what size can the protruding load be transported from behind without special permission?
Answer: Up to 2 meters, with the projection of the load from 1 meter to 2, you will need to hang the sign "Bulky cargo."

The safety of the goods is determined by the quality of its transportation. When the property has large dimensions, it is necessary to approach the choice of the carrier’s side with great care. Properly chosen transport company is security, integrity and timely delivery of cargo.

In the transport service industry a large selection of offers, the main thing is not to be mistaken. In particular, the Pit-Stop transport company has existed on the freight transportation market for more than 7 years, has an excellent reputation, well-deserved partnerships, a fleet with a wide range of special equipment. Delivery of oversized cargo to all regions of the Russian Federation is the main focus of the organization’s bona fide activities.

Exist international rules for the transport of bulky goods, their observance is regulated at the legislative level of the Russian Federation. The specifics of the activities of transport companies is the high-quality transportation of various types of cargo.

Overall cargo. Restrictions

Transportation of goods, according to the rules of the road, is carried out by special dimensional transport. The same rules spell out the allowable dimensions for the transport of goods in accordance with established international standards.

  • Cargo weight  should not be more than recommended by the manufacturer for each type of vehicle;
  • Cargo dimensions should not limit driver visibility, interfere with or limit the management of transport;
  • Dimensions of cargo, protruding beyond the vehicle  (in length - 1 m, in width - 0.4 m), it is necessary to designate identification marks (reflector, lamp, flap of red or white fabric).

All transportation of non-ordinary cargo (heavy, dangerous, specific dimensions, etc.), which exceed standards by any parameters, is carried out by oversized transport in the prescribed manner of the rules.

Maximum permissible dimensions  transported cargo:

  • width - 2650 mm;
  • it is long - 22000 mm;
  • height - 4000 mm;
  • total weight - 38-40 tons.

maybe increase the allowable size of cargo along the length, from the rear side of a motor vehicle no more than 2 m. In this case, the presence of identification marks (signal lights, reflector, red cloth) is a prerequisite.

In conditions exceeding the permissible norms, for transportation of bulky and heavy goods, it is necessary to obtain special permission and traffic police escort service.

Consequences for violation of the rules of transportation

Cargoes exceeding the established norms can create difficult or emergency situations on the road.

For safe transportation it is necessary to consider condition of the transport webits compliance with the expected loads:

  • passability;
  • presence and proximity of electrical wires;
  • loading capacity of a transport cloth;
  • presence of tunnels, bridges and other interferences on the way.

For violation of the rules and regulations for the transport of heavy and bulky goods from the owners (companies) of vehicles charged a fine. The system of fines provides for recovery of up to 500 thousand rubles.

Cargo organization

Conscientious specialists of transport companies work in accordance with the norms of the Russian legislation, which ensures competent organization of cargo delivery.

The cost of current tariffs for shipping can be found on the website of the company pit-stopp.ru, the whole range of available equipment is also provided there. Transportation of valuable, non-standard cargoes should be trusted only to competent logistics specialists who have a good reputation and certain experience in this type of activity.
