Exist standard requirements and the rules under which the transportation of heavy and oversized cargo. SDA clearly regulate the features of their transportation on roads located on the territory Russian Federation.

What is oversized cargo?

Any object to be transported, with parameters exceeding the dimensions established by traffic rules, is called oversized (heavy) cargo. It does not have a clear definition and consists of a number of requirements that apply to the loading platform and the condition pavement.

The main parameters of cargo are height, length, width and weight. If an object exceeds the allowable values ​​in one of these indicators, it is considered to be an oversized cargo.

The difficulties of oversized transportation are primarily related to the peculiarities of the roads and the presence of tunnels and bridges along the route, which have restrictions on the height of arches and driveways, as well as the carrying capacity. This also includes the intersections available on the roads with railway crossings, as well as the presence of communication lines and power lines. Transport may still be limited weather conditions and type of road surface.

Some types of agricultural special equipment, boats and yachts, drilling rigs, turbines, concrete products and other objects of various shapes, sizes and large masses can serve as an example of oversized cargo. Thus, any object can be considered oversized if, due to the peculiarities of its shape, size, weight and other parameters, it cannot be transported by vehicle in closed(for example, using containers of standard sizes).

Rules for the transportation of oversized cargo

According to paragraph 23.3 of the traffic rules, it is allowed to transport oversized and heavy loads if they do not affect the quality of the driver's view, do not impair stability vehicle, do not block the visibility of reflectors, identification marks and lighting devices.

Oversized cargo should not create noise, impair visibility on the roadway for other road users by raising dust, cause mechanical damage to the road surface, and also have a negative impact on the environment.

Paragraph 23.4 of the SDA states that if the object being transported exceeds the size of the transport platform by more than 1 m in front and behind, as well as by 0.4 m on one or each of its sides, the cargo must be equipped with a special reflective sign " Oversized cargo.

Important: transportation of oversized items in conditions of insufficient illumination or at night is permitted only subject to following conditions: a white reflector or a lantern must be fixed on the front of the object, and a red reflector on the back. In addition, the vehicle must be equipped with orange and yellow flashing beacons.

When transporting oversized cargo by road, the speed of the vehicle must not exceed 60 km/h (when driving on bridges - 15 km/h). At the same time, the driver does not have the right to independently change the route, which is agreed in advance with government agencies. This is due to the load that the main routes, roads and structures located on a certain route can withstand.

Cargoes, depending on their weight and size indicators, are conventionally divided into 2 categories (taking into account the vehicle) - with a load on each axle and permissible dimensions (length, width, height). Thus, a car platform is considered a heavy load if its mass or axle load exceeds the established values. Oversized cargo is such transport (regardless of whether it is loaded or not), the dimensions of which exceed the allowable dimensions.

The instruction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation today regulates the transportation of oversized cargo and is the main normative document which permits their transportation by road. At the same time, any objects belonging to the category of heavy and oversized cargo are allowed for transportation subject to strict compliance with the traffic rules of the Russian Federation, transportation rules, as well as special requirements that are specified in the relevant permit.

An important regulatory document regulating the procedure for compensating for damage caused to roads and various structures by freight vehicles is Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 962 dated September 29, 1995. Its provisions apply to transport companies and drivers transporting heavy and oversized cargo by road, located on the territory of Russia.

Important: For the transportation of oversized items, the owners of transport companies need to obtain a special permit. This can be done by submitting an application to the relevant road authorities, which are located in the region from where the truck route is planned. To obtain a permit for the transportation of oversized items of all categories outside the Russian Federation, an application must be submitted to the Ministry of Transport of Russia or to any of its divisions. If the route passes through the roads of federal importance, with the corresponding application, you should contact the Federal Highway Administration Service. To obtain a permit for the transportation of heavy and oversized objects along the route that passes through the roads belonging to the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, you must contact the territorial authorities of the roads (at the location of the transport company-carrier).

According to the Instructions for the transportation of oversized and heavy cargo, an application from carriers is submitted in a strictly prescribed form. It must contain the following information:

• data on organizations coordinating the transportation of oversized items;
• the exact dimensions, category and nature of the cargo being transported;
• weight and size indicators of the vehicle;
• terms of transportation of oversized items of certain categories;
• detailed itinerary;
• type, name, purpose and throughput highways.

A permit for the transportation of oversized cargo can be issued by government agencies on a one-time basis or for a specified period. It depends on the category to which the objects to be transported belong, as well as on the type and features of their transportation. The received one-time permit indicates the exact route of the transport with the cargo, the terms agreed in advance. It is valid only once.

As for the documents issued for a certain period, they allow the transportation of oversized cargo of the first category and can be valid for 1-3 months. In order to obtain a permit for the transportation of heavy and oversized cargo of the second category, the trucking company must submit schemes:

• road trains with depicted vehicles taking part in the transportation;
• location of axles and wheels on vehicles;
• distribution of axial loads.

The carrier company receives permission in government bodies road management, which also coordinate the transportation of oversized items along the route with the balance holders of communications and various structures (overpasses, metro, underground pipelines, power lines, etc.), authorized bodies of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation, as well as regional departments of railways.

After obtaining the appropriate permission, coordination of transportation with the traffic police of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia is required. AT without fail requirements for the transportation of oversized cargo to ensure traffic safety are being coordinated. The carrier must obtain a special type pass from the traffic inspectorate, which gives the right to carry out transportation, which should be placed on windshield truck.

Without fail, representatives of the road inspectorate determine the need for escorting oversized and heavy cargo. For this can be used:

• traffic police patrol cars;
• tractors;
• cover cars.

Please note that cover vehicles are used to escort cargo without fail if the vehicle width exceeds 3.5 m, and also if the road train used to transport oversized cargo is more than 24 m in length. Tractors and cover vehicles must be allocated for the transportation of oversized cargo by the carrier company or the consignor of the cargo.

The traffic police patrol car takes part in the transportation of cargo if the vehicle is wider than 4 m, the length of the road train is more than 30 m, and the object being transported belongs to the second category. This should also include cases when the used automobile cargo platform is forced to occupy part of the road in the oncoming traffic lane.

Oversized cargo is escorted by patrol cars on a contractual basis. When using cover vehicles, the latter must be equipped with flashing beacons without fail. Such cars move at a distance of 15-20 m to the left in relation to the escorted transport that carries the goods, so that the width of its dimensions protrudes beyond the width of the escorted vehicle.

If you have to move across the bridge, the position of the vehicles and the distance must also be agreed with the traffic police, drawing up a specific driving pattern.

Important: if due to a number of circumstances it became necessary to change the route when transporting oversized cargo, the carrier company is obliged to obtain an appropriate permit.

Owners of motor transport enterprises, officials and drivers for violation of the rules for the carriage of goods and the operation of vehicles, which are established by manufacturers, are liable in accordance with the current legislation of the Russian Federation.

Permissible cargo dimensions for transportation by road

Transportation of heavy and non-standard cargo according to traffic rules is carried out by special vehicles. The oversized weight must not exceed the allowable values ​​set by the manufacturers. various kinds TS. As for the dimensions of the transported goods, they must not limit the visibility of the driver and not interfere with the control of the vehicle.

So, if the cargo protrudes beyond the limits of the vehicle, it must be marked with a special sign "Oversized cargo", and in the absence of the latter - with patches of red or white fabric, lanterns or reflectors.

For trucks

Transportation of extraordinary cargo exceeding any of the established standard parameters, is carried out according to the rules with the help of oversized transport. So, for objects transported by trucks, the following allowable dimensions:

• length - 22 m;
• height - 4 m;
• width - 2.65 m;
• weight - 40 tons.

If necessary, from the rear side of the vehicle, the length of the transported cargo can be increased up to 2 m, while the presence of identification marks is a prerequisite for transportation.

For cars

If the load exceeds the length passenger car by 1 m and a width of 0.4 m, it must also be marked with a special sign or a piece of red cloth. When transporting at night, an additional lamp or sign made of reflective material should be installed. It is forbidden to transport cargo, the height of which (from the level of the road) exceeds 4 m, and its weight is the values ​​​​set by the vehicle manufacturer.

Sign "Oversized cargo" - dimensions

The identification mark indicating the transportation of oversized cargo by road vehicles is called "Oversized cargo". SDA defines the dimensions of this sign, which looks like a square with a side length of 0.4 m. Inside it there are stripes of white and red alternating under a certain slope, the width of which is 50 mm (GOST R12.4.026-2001).
This sign must be applied to oversized cargo. It can be purchased or made independently in the form of a sticker or pattern from reflective materials.

Oversize fine

According to Art. 12.21 SDA in case of violation of the rules for transporting goods, the driver can be punished in the form of a warning or fined 500 rubles. This can happen if there is no special sign, the transported object is not securely fixed on the vehicle, the cargo makes a lot of noise or dust. These penalties apply to owners of vehicles carrying goods that do not require a special permit.

If a vehicle carrying an extraordinary load exceeds the allowable dimensions by no more than 10 cm in the absence of a special permit, or if the dimensions have a value not exceeding the parameters specified in the permit by 10 cm, or if the axle load of the vehicle exceeds the parameters specified in the permit from 2 to 10%, this entails the imposition of an administrative fine. For drivers, its size is 1-1.5 thousand rubles, for officials- 10-15 thousand rubles, for legal entities - 100-150 thousand rubles. If the above violations are recorded technical means photo and video filming, the owner of a trucking company can be fined 150 thousand rubles.

If the dimensions of the vehicle exceed fixed dimensions by 0.1 m (but not more than 0.2 m), as well as if its mass or axle load exceeds the permissible value by 10% (but not more than 20%) without an appropriate permit, the following fines are provided: for drivers - 3-4 thousand rubles, for officials - 25-30 thousand rubles, for legal entities - 250-300 thousand rubles. In the case of photo or video recording, the owner of the vehicle will be fined 300 thousand rubles.

If the dimensions of the vehicle are exceeded by 20 to 50 cm, and also if the mass or axle load exceeds the allowable by 20-50% without special permission, the following fines are provided. Drivers - 5-10 thousand rubles or deprivation of the right to drive a vehicle for a period of 2 to 4 months. Officials responsible for the transportation of oversized items can be fined 35-40 thousand rubles, legal entities - from 350 to 400 thousand rubles. In case of photo or video recording of violations, the fine will be 400 thousand for legal entities.

If the dimensions of the vehicle exceed the allowable values ​​by 50 cm, as well as if its mass or axle load is more than 50% of the designated norm with the appropriate permit, the driver will be fined 7-10 thousand rubles or deprived of their rights for a period of 4 to 6 months . For officials, a fine of 45-50 thousand rubles is provided, and for legal entities - 400-500 thousand rubles (500 thousand in case of photo or video recording of violations).

If the consignor provides inaccurate data on the dimensions, weight, route of transportation of the cargo, and also does not indicate the number and date of the special permit, penalties for drivers will amount to 1-1.5 thousand rubles. The fine for officials is 15-20 thousand rubles, for legal entities - 200-300 thousand rubles.

If the permissible weight, axle load of the vehicle, as well as dimensions exceed the values ​​specified in the permit, individual entrepreneurs or legal entities will be punished in the form of penalties. For individual entrepreneurs, their amount will be 80-100 thousand rubles, for carrier companies - 250-400 thousand rubles.

In case of non-compliance with the requirements of prescriptive road signs that prohibit the movement of vehicles whose mass or axle load does not correspond to those specified, administrative penalty will amount to 5 thousand rubles.

When is it not allowed to transport oversized goods by road?

There are certain situations in which the transportation of heavy and oversized cargo is not allowed. The rules for the transportation of oversized cargo prohibit:

• exceed the established speed of movement of vehicles;
• independently change the established route;
• transport cargo in icy conditions;
• transport oversized goods without permits and passes;
• to move along the road shoulders without a special permit;
• stop vehicles on roads in violation of traffic rules;
• carry out the transportation of goods on a faulty vehicle.

Carriers are obliged to strictly comply with the rules for the transportation of oversized and heavy cargo. This will avoid paying considerable fines, ensure the safety of road users and the quality of delivery.

1 . General provisions

1.1. The provisions set forth in these standards relate to the mass and dimensions of vehicles permitted for use in the Russian Federation on public roads, established based on the requirements for ensuring road safety, reliability and safety of roads and road structures, taking into account their bearing capacity and load capacity. The following restrictions on the weight and dimensions of vehicles do not apply to the production of vehicles, the requirements for which are established by other standards and norms. 1.2. Vehicles or parts thereof that form part of combined vehicles, the dimensions, as well as the total mass and axle load of which do not exceed the values ​​established by sections 3, 4 and 5 of these standards, are allowed to travel on federal and territorial public roads. For other highways designed and built for loads less than those specified in sections 3, 4 and 5, the owners of roads may set other (lower) maximum values ​​for the mass of vehicles, for federal highways - by the Federal Road Service of Russia, for territorial roads roads - by the executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, for municipal highways - by the authorities local government. Decisions to reduce the dimensions and weights of vehicles listed below are based on the results of a road survey and may be permanent or temporary. At the same time, the body that made such a decision is obliged, in the prescribed manner, to establish the appropriate road signs on the highway or its section, where additional restrictions on the mass and size of vehicles have been introduced and inform road users about this. 1.3. A vehicle and its part forming a combined vehicle, the mass and/or axle load of which and/or the size of which exceed the maximum values ​​established by these standards, may travel on roads only if there are special permits issued in the prescribed manner by the competent authorities. The movement of such vehicles on roads is carried out in accordance with the "Instructions for the transportation of bulky and heavy goods by road on the roads of the Russian Federation", approved by the Ministry of Transport of Russia on May 27, 1996. 1.4. In addition to the limit values ​​​​of the total mass and axle loads established by these requirements, the mass of the transported cargo and the distribution of the load along the axles must not exceed the values ​​\u200b\u200bestablished by the manufacturer for a particular vehicle. 1.5. For the purposes of these standards, the following concepts and definitions are used: Vehicle - a device designed for the carriage of goods and passengers on roads; Truck - a vehicle designed and built exclusively or primarily for the carriage of goods; Tractor - a vehicle designed and built exclusively or primarily for towing a trailer or semi-trailer; Trailer - a vehicle intended for the carriage of goods by towing by a tractor or truck; Semi-trailer - specially equipped for the carriage of goods, designed to be connected to a tractor in such a way that a part of this vehicle is located directly on the tractor and transfers a significant proportion of its weight to it; Road train - a combined vehicle consisting of a truck and a trailer; Articulated vehicle - a combined vehicle consisting of a tractor, articulated with a semi-trailer; Bus - a vehicle designed to carry passengers and their luggage, with more than nine seats, including a driver's seat; Articulated bus- a bus consisting of two or more rigid sections connected to each other and having a passenger compartment in each section, allowing passengers to move freely from one compartment to another; Combined vehicle- a combination of a truck, consisting of a truck connected to a semi-trailer; The maximum length, width and height of the vehicle - length, width and height of the vehicle with or without cargo, not exceeding the values ​​specified in section 3 of these standards; Maximum linear parameters of the vehicle - linear parameters not exceeding the values ​​specified in section 3 of these standards; Maximum vehicle weight- the mass of the vehicle with or without cargo, which does not exceed the values ​​specified in section 4 of these standards; - mass transmitted through the axle of the vehicle to the surface highway, not exceeding the standard value; Indivisible cargo- cargo which, when transported by road, cannot be divided into two or more parts without undue cost or risk of deterioration and which, when loaded onto a vehicle, would exceed its maximum dimensions and mass; Air suspension- a suspension system in which the damping element is air; Cart- two or more axles having a common suspension to the vehicle; single axle- an axle of a vehicle located at a distance of more than 1.8 m from the nearest axle of this vehicle; close axes- axes (two or more) of the vehicle, located at a distance between them of less than 1.8 m.

2. Measuring the mass and dimensions of vehicles

2.1. Vehicle length is measured in accordance with ISO 612-1978 clause 6.1. In this case, when measuring the length in accordance with the provisions of this standard, the following devices mounted on the vehicle are not taken into account: glass cleaner and mudguards; front and side marking plates; devices for sealing and protective devices for them; devices for fixing tarpaulins and protective devices for them; electrical lighting equipment; rear view mirrors; devices for viewing the space behind the car; air tubes; length of valves and connectors for connection to trailers or swap bodies; steps for access to the body; lift for a note tire; lifting platforms, access steps and similar equipment not exceeding 200 mm in working position and designed in such a way that they cannot increase the vehicle's load limit; coupling devices for towing vehicles or trailers. 2.2. Vehicle height is measured in accordance with ISO 612-1978 clause 6.3. Moreover, when measuring the height, taking into account the provisions of this standard, the following devices mounted on the vehicle should not be taken into account: antennas; pantograph in raised position. For vehicles equipped with an axle lifting device, the effect of this device is taken into account. 2.3. Vehicle width is measured in accordance with ISO 612-1978 clause 6.2. When measuring the width of a vehicle, taking into account the provisions of this standard, the following devices mounted on a vehicle should not be taken into account: devices for seals and seals and protective devices for them; devices for fixing tarpaulins and protective devices for them; devices for identifying damage to tires ; protruding flexible parts of mudguards; lighting equipment; steps in working position, suspended platforms and similar equipment which, in working position, do not exceed 10 mm on each side of the vehicle and facing forward or backward, the corners of which are rounded with a radius of at least 5 mm, and the edges of which are rounded with a radius of at least 2 .5 mm; rearview mirrors; tire pressure indicators; retractable or retractable steps; the curved portion of a tire's surface that extends beyond its point of contact with the ground. 2.4. Axle mass of a vehicle is measured under a dynamic vertical load transmitted through a single axle to the road surface from a loaded vehicle. The measurement is carried out by special automobile scales that have passed certification in the prescribed manner. The axle weight of a bogie located on one suspension, taking into account the design of the vehicle, is determined as the sum of the measurements of the mass of each of the axles included in the bogie. 2.5. The total mass of a vehicle or part thereof forming part of a combined vehicle is determined as the sum of the measured masses of all axles of the vehicle or part thereof.

3 . Maximum dimensions and other vehicle parameters

Often in the process of transportation it is necessary to transport various oversized cargo. There is no clear definition in the SDA for this.

It is generally accepted that the cargo is oversized if it does not meet the requirements and exceeds the dimensions of the vehicle itself, as a result of which the risk of accidents increases. Therefore, oversize must be allocated in such a way that other road users can notice it from a long distance and take measures to ensure safety.

There are two main types of this type of cargo:

• large-sized - exceeds the dimensions of the vehicle, may block part of the roadway;
• heavy - its weight is greater than the maximum allowable weight that this vehicle can carry.

If we are talking about freight transportation, then oversized exceeds the following parameters:

• its height is more than 2.5 m;
• weighs from 38 tons;
• length starts from 24 m;
• width - from 2.55 m.

What is the penalty for non-compliance?

It should also be recalled that the administrative code provides for punishment for wrong organization transportation of oversized and without the appropriate permission.

• In particular, article 12.12.1 part 1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses states that the driver will be forced to pay a fine of 2,500 rubles.
• The official who authorized such transportation will be obliged to pay 15-20 thousand rubles.
• And for a legal entity, liability is imposed in the form of 400-500 thousand rubles.

Under the same article, a driver may be deprived of his driver's license for up to six months.

Based on all these factors, the driver and the person in charge can receive not only a fine for oversized cargo, but also lose their rights. Therefore, it is necessary to study and strictly adhere to the rules for transporting oversized items, which are described in the SDA.

Bulky cargo sign

First of all, the vehicle is marked with a special sign "Oversized cargo". It is a metal plate with diagonal white and red lines. The size of the shield is 40x40 cm. It is also allowed to use stickers of the same size.

The surface of the plate must be reflective so that it is visible both in the daytime and at night.

In addition to this plate, any truck must be marked with the following signs:

• road train;
• bulky;
• long length (Long Vehicle).

It is necessary to install this sign on those parts of the cargo that protrude above carriageway. Reflectors are also used. In the front they should be white color, in the back - red or orange.

Oversized - transportation by cars

You can often see how cars similarly to cargo transport oversized cargo protruding above the roadway. For drivers of passenger cars, liability for violation of transportation rules is also provided, so they should be considered.

The following cargo is considered oversized:

• protrudes more than one meter from behind or in front;
• on the side - 40 or more centimeters.

If you are dealing with this type of transportation, then you must use the above plate (sign) and attach it directly to the protruding parts of the oversized cargo. At night, in addition to the sign for oversized cargo, use reflectors - white in front, red in back.

It is necessary to place the load in such a way that it does not block the driver's view, there is no risk of it slipping, and does not harm the road surface or auxiliary structures.

Please note that if the load protrudes from the rear or front by more than 2 meters, and the total width exceeds 2.55 meters, then its transportation in passenger vehicles without special permission is prohibited. If an inspector stops you, then there is a high probability that an appropriate protocol will be issued and you will be deprived of your rights for up to six months.

Organization of transportation of oversized cargo

If massive objects are to be delivered by car, for example, heavy equipment or large agricultural machinery, you must take care in advance of obtaining permission from the regional branch of the Ministry of Transport.

You will need to provide the following information:

• metric parameters of the transported equipment;
• the route along which the convoy will move;
• quality certificates and additional documents confirming the characteristics of the cargo: dangerous, bulky, non-hazardous, and so on.

It may take up to 30 days to coordinate routes and obtain permission. The Ministry of Transport will analyze the route, and if it turns out that there are any communications along this route that interfere with travel (low bridges, overpasses, overhanging power lines, narrow sections of the road), then the route may be revised. It is possible that you will need to use another mode of transport, such as rail or sea.

In special cases, they can provide escort in the form of several patrol cars with flashing beacons orange color. They will not give any priority in traffic, but will warn other car owners of a potential threat.

If a convoy consisting of several long vehicles is moving, the following requirements must be met:

• accompanying cars with flashing beacons in front and behind the column;
• the distance between each unit of transport must ensure safety;
• if dangerous goods are transported, the presence of another additional heavy vehicle will be required to transfer the cargo to it in case of unforeseen situations.

In conditions of poor visibility, all vehicles must be equipped with signal lights.

There are also such cases when transportation of oversized cargo may be refused:

• it is possible to transport it in other ways - railway, air or sea transportation;
• the cargo is divisible, that is, it can be disassembled without damage;
• 100% safety cannot be ensured, for example, if the route passes through settlements or near dangerous sections of the road.

Well, the most important point- only technically sound vehicles are allowed to such works. Therefore, before starting, it is necessary to undergo a complete diagnosis, eliminate any malfunctions. Drivers also undergo a mandatory medical examination and observe work and rest regimes.
