Citizens are accustomed to that somewhere constantly the sirens. Motorists are required to give way to transport with special signals, but sometimes they do not have time to do this and very expensive pay for it.
In Cherepovets, the son of Mikhail Sokolova died when he was driving on green, and at the intersection it was racing a fire truck. The man more than once wondered: how did the son who did not hear Sirena? He found out the answer when he himself was at this intersection.
Mikhail Sokolov, the father of the deceased driver: "It takes an ambulance not on mad, but at normal speed. The signal was only surrounded by the house, after the machine flew the intersection. "
Who is to blame for a fatal accident, find out for more than a year. The criminal case has not yet been initiated.
In Altai, the ambulance registrar recorded how the coach rushes to red, and Mikhail Olkin did not have time to come to the right. In the accident he vinit the driver soon. After all, the drivers of special transport can retreat from the rules, only making sure that they are inferior to the road. But Mikhail admitted the culprit, although the experts found that the driver of the car could not prevent the collision.
Sergey Radko, lawyer: "If there is an included special signal and light, then, as a rule, the courts believe that the drivers of such a vehicle have an advantage."
But it happens that the guilty of the specialists are responsible. The ambulance driver Waha Bisolentans swear, which has always dropped the speed to see what the road is free, but did not assume that the expensive crossover will be used. The examination found that Audi was rushing at a speed of almost 70 kilometers per hour with permanent 40, the driver had the opportunity to assess the situation, but the driver of the emergency was to blame.
Igor Smelov, Expert, Autotelery, Candidate of Law: "What is his fault? Ambulance is already driving around the intersection, and this one is just approaching. He can't not see her. True, for this you need to look around. "
For not missing the car with special signals, punish a fine to 5 thousand rubles or deprivation of rights up to the year. But scientists confirm that there are too many sounds in the city noise: hinders a loud music, confuses the echo that walks between buildings.
Sergey Sysoev, Head of Independent Environmental Expertise: "It's not entirely visually understandable, where this sound is heard, it can reflect and not immediately reach the ear of motorists."
Minimize the number of such accidents are trying engineers and programmers. In America, the "smart" intersection has already experienced. A similar system with cameras and sensors are tested in Samara, Tambov, Novosibirsk, Kursk and Volgograd.
Yaroslav Fedoseev, representative of the company - developer alert system: "Drivers will receive information in advance that the ambulance car is approaching, traffic police, fire or any other emergency response machine."
So that the technology earned, the transmitters need to be put into all specialists. The program "The Main Road" advises: Drive - Listen to the city, reduce the volume of the radio, slow down in front of the crossroads, look around, it will save a lot of time to courts and expertise.
