Default speed limits in Russia

There are four implicit speed limits specified in Russian traffic regulations:

Vehicle type Residential zones, cycle zones and yards

Urban roads Rural roads Motorways
Cars and goods vehicles under 3.5 t, motorcycles 20 km/h 60 km/h 90 km/h 110 km/h
Buses with seatbelts 20 km/h 60 km/h 90 km/h 90 km/h
All other buses 20 km/h 60 km/h 70 km/h 70 km/h
Vehicles towing a trailer, goods vehicles over 3.5 t 20 km/h 60 km/h 70 km/h 90 km/h
Cargo vehicles transporting passengers in the back, buses transporting children 20 km/h 60 km/h 60 km/h 60 km/h
All vehicles when towing another vehicle 20 km/h 50 km/h 50 km/h 50 km/h

The owner of the road may raise the speed limit on a road if the conditions and design allow for it. In this case the speed limit must not exceed 130 km/h on roads signed with sign 5.1 (motorways) and 110 km/h on roads signed with sign 5.3 (roads for automobiles). On other roads the speed limit for specific vehicle types may be raised if it is safe for them to travel at a higher speed, but the speed limit for these vehicles must not exceed their speed limit on motorways.[1]

Speeding Tolerances and Fines

[edit]

There is no fine for exceeding the speed limit by less than 20 km/h. The fines set out in the Code of Administrative Offenses are as follows:

  • Exceeding the speed limit by more than 20 but less than 40 km/h incurs a fine of 500 rubles
  • Exceeding the speed limit by more than 40 but less than 60 km/h incurs a fine of between 1000 and 1500 rubles
  • Exceeding the speed limit by more than 60 but less than 80 km/h incurs a fine of between 2000 and 2500 rubles or driving license confiscation for 4 to 6 months
  • Exceeding the speed limit by more than 80 km/h incurs a fine of 5000 rubles or driving license confiscation for 6 months
  • A repeat offence of exceeding the speed limit by more than 40 but less than 60 km/h incurs a fine of between 2000 and 2500 rubles
  • A repeat offence of exceeding the speed limit by more than 60 km/h incurs driving license confiscation for 1 year (if the offence was captured using automatic speed cameras the fine is 5000 rubles)[2]
