Driver's actions in case of an accident

In case of a traffic accident with injured or killed, the driver involved in it is obliged to:

Put up a warning triangle

1. Stop immediately, turn on your hazard lights and display a warning triangle. Do not move objects related to the incident.
2. Call an ambulance or rescuers (from a mobile phone - call 112). Before their arrival, provide first aid to the victims. In exceptional cases, it is allowed to send the victims to the nearest medical facility in a passing vehicle or in their own vehicle. In the latter case, after delivering the victim to the hospital, the participant in the accident is obliged to return to the scene of the accident.
3. Report the incident to the police (from a mobile phone - call 112). Write down the names and addresses of eyewitnesses and wait for the police to arrive. The roadway can only be cleared upon command from the police. However, if the movement of other vehicles is impossible, then the driver must record in the presence of witnesses all traces and objects related to the incident and organize a detour around them. After this, you can clear the roadway.
4. Notify your insurance company about the accident. After registering an accident, police officers, together with other participants in the incident, fill out a Notice of Road Accident. Subsequently, the completed notice is submitted to the insurance company along with documents prepared by the police:
   a copy of the accident certificate;

6. a copy of the resolution in the case of an administrative offense.

Road accident without injuries

Road accident without injuries

In case of an accident without injuries, steps 1, 3 and 4 must be followed. Before the police arrive, you should carefully inspect the scene of the accident and the damage to your vehicle.

The information you collect can be very useful when filing an accident.

If there are no victims in an accident and there are no disagreements between its participants, then instead of calling the traffic police, it is allowed to independently come to the nearest traffic police post or police department with a road accident diagram drawn up and signed by both participants.

Since the road accident diagram is evidence in a traffic accident case, you can sign it only after making sure that everything depicted on the diagram corresponds to reality.

If only two vehicles are involved in an accident without casualties, the owners of which have valid MTPL policies, and there are no disagreements about the circumstances of the incident and the nature of the damage caused, it is permissible not to involve police officers in registering the incident, but to confine oneself to filling out an Accident Notice so that the insurance company compensates the victim harm caused.

At the same time, the victim must keep in mind that with a simplified registration procedure, the maximum possible amount of compensation is 25 thousand rubles. If the preliminary assessment of the damage caused exceeds this amount, it is necessary to register an accident with the involvement of traffic police officers.

Passenger Responsibilities

1. Passengers are obliged to:

• when traveling in a vehicle, wear seat belts, and when riding a motorcycle, wear a fastened motorcycle helmet;
• boarding and disembarking from the car should be done from the sidewalk or curb and only after a complete stop. Boarding and disembarking from the side of the roadway is permitted provided that it is safe for the passenger and does not interfere with other road users.

2. Passengers are prohibited from:

• distract the driver while driving;
• when traveling on a truck with a flatbed, stand, sit on the sides or on a load above the sides;
• open the doors of the vehicle while it is moving.

What is the responsibility of each participant in the DD?

All information about this issue is specified in the traffic rules. Just open the document and study the data presented. In a short version, it looks like this:

The listed rules must be observed unquestioningly, since any violation of them leads to an accident. For non-compliance, the driver is given a serious fine.

Responsibilities of pedestrians

1. Pedestrians must walk on sidewalks, verges or footpaths. In the absence of sidewalks, pedestrian paths and roadsides, pedestrians can move in one row along the edge of the roadway towards the movement of vehicles.
2. Pedestrians must cross the roadway at pedestrian crossings, and if there are none, at intersections along a line that continues the line of the sidewalk or curb. At unregulated pedestrian crossings and intersections, pedestrians can enter the roadway only after assessing the distance to approaching vehicles and their speed, and making sure that crossing the road will be safe for them. If there is no crossing or intersection in the visibility zone, it is allowed to cross the road strictly across the roadway, provided that the road section does not have a dividing strip or fences and is clearly visible in both directions.
3. In places where traffic is regulated, pedestrians must follow the signals of the traffic light or traffic controller.
4. If a vehicle with special signals (blue flashing light and siren) is approaching the place where a pedestrian is crossing the road, then the pedestrian must refrain from crossing. A pedestrian who is already on the roadway at this moment must immediately clear it without interfering with a special vehicle.
5. Waiting for a tram, trolleybus, bus, minibus and regular taxi is allowed only on landing platforms, and in their absence - on the sidewalk or on the side of the road. It is permitted to enter the roadway to board a vehicle only after it has stopped (this requirement also applies to boarding a tram that has stopped in the middle of the roadway).

Traffic rules for pedestrians

In driving schools, when considering situations involving pedestrians, drivers are directed to ensure that the latter are right.
This is a preventive measure and a good warning. According to the rules, a pedestrian does not have priority over vehicles. Traffic regulations give a clear interpretation of the term “pedestrian”. This is a person who is outside of transport and not working on the roadway. A pedestrian includes a person moving in a wheelchair, driving a bicycle, motorcycle, pulling a sled, cart, baby stroller or wheelchair.”

The definition clearly delineates entities that may have a dual role. The rules are clear:

• if you ride a bicycle, you obey the rules for the driver;
• If you drive a bicycle, you obey the rules for a pedestrian.

Major traffic violations by pedestrians

1. Violation of markings and signs

Everyone must know the definition of a pedestrian crossing. It is defined as a part of the road that is marked with signs and (or) markings and is designated for the movement of pedestrians. If there is no marking, the width of the transitions is set by the distance between the signs.

Depending on the situation, the transition is indicated differently:

• markings and signs;
• one marking;
• just signs.

2. Ignorance of the rules

The “Give Way” requirement means that a pedestrian cannot start, resume, continue moving, or perform maneuvers if these actions interfere with other road users who have priority over him. Most people do not know this requirement and the fact that traffic police officers in each specific situation may interpret it differently.

It must be remembered that the driver, pedestrian, passenger are equal participants in the movement. They have their own rights, duties and responsibilities.

Responsibilities of pedestrians traffic rules

The responsibilities of a pedestrian of the traffic rules are stated in chapter 4 and paragraphs of rules 4.3;
4.5 and 17.1. Chapter 4 of the Traffic Regulations for Pedestrians explains their responsibilities . It is necessary to know the points at which vehicular traffic intersects with pedestrian traffic and a question of dominance may arise.

Clause 4.3. defines the rules of a pedestrian, where he is obliged to move across the road :

• along a pedestrian crossing (underground and overground);
• if there are no crossings, then at intersections;
• if there is no crossing or intersection, then it is possible to cross the road perpendicular to the roadway.

It is worth remembering that crossing a road other than a crossing is an exception. You need to cross the road only at the pedestrian crossing.

Clause 4.5 determines the correct movement along an unregulated crossing . You can go out on the road only after assessing the distance to moving cars. You need to roughly estimate their speed and make sure that you can cross safely.

It must be remembered that when moving outside pedestrian crossings, a person should not interfere with transport. It is prohibited to get out from behind a stationary vehicle or other obstacle unless you are sure that there are no moving cars.

There are two important points to remember:

• own safety is the responsibility of the pedestrian;
• When moving outside the crossing, a pedestrian has no advantage over vehicles.

Clause 17.1 determines the movement of pedestrians in the residential area and courtyard areas . Pedestrians are allowed to move on sidewalks and roadways if they do not create unreasonable interference with traffic. In a residential area, pedestrians have advantages over vehicles
