Horse on the slider is one of the best ways to reduce traffic jams in places where there are pinch points. Normally, approaching the stenosis, the drivers try as soon as possible, take the lane in which it is possible to continue driving. As a result, a large part of the belt which tapers (usually the left) is empty, which increases the blockage. On the other hand, drivers who are going to the very end, they reluctantly admitted by those who descended on him before.
Horse zip lies in the fact that the cars are going in parallel until an obstacle, and finally the driver driving in the right lane lets one car from the next. Boards informing about driving on the slider can be used today (eg. In the case of the introduction of temporary traffic organization in connection with the renovation) as a complement to the sign A-30, or other hazards. Except that shown on the sign on the driving slider is not a requirement for managers, but only a suggestion.
Green light for slide …
Now it has to change. The Ministry of Infrastructure and Construction has already begun work on the large amendment to the Regulation on Road Signs and Signals (Journal of Laws of 2002 no. 170, item. 1393, as amended.), As well as the so-called. red book, which is the Annex to the Regulation on detailed technical conditions for traffic signs and signals. One of the changes is to be just the introduction of a new character that will oblige the drivers to drive on the slider.
– A driver who fails to comply with driving behavior resulting from the character commits in this situation offense Article. 92 paragraph. 1 of the Code offenses – says Adam Jasinski, a lawyer specializing in traffic law.
It is of little significance that, in accordance with art. 22 paragraph. 4 of the Act – Road Traffic Law driver, changing the occupied lane, is obliged to give way to the vehicle rider to the lane, he intends to enter, and vehicle wjeżdżającemu this lane on the right.
– Under Article. 5 of the Act directing must first adhere to road signs, even if the provisions of the Act due to different behavior – indicates lawyer.
This means that if at narrowing bearing the sign of driving the slider reaches the bumps should be the one who went contrary to the order.
– for a long time we teach students to commuted the end of the runway, which ends, as well as to in accordance with the method of driving the slider culturally Recessed drivers with such a belt. Even when there is no mark. Such cooperation driver works perfectly, especially as stenosis occur not only due to renovations, but eg. Breakage – says Roman Stencel, president of the Polish Chamber of Commerce Training Centres drivers. – After entering a character, so that you will be able to enforce such a way that driving is a chance to accept it also among the drivers who have long been driving – he added.
… yellow for sekundników
however, one should mention the spoon of tar in this barrel of honey. And this is the timing of the changes. A new character to be introduced in the framework of the recasting of the regulation of signs and red book. And this requires a lot of work and long-term public consultation. – For now underway interministerial consultations. According to the plans of the Regulation is to be ready in the fourth quarter of 2018. – Said Jakub Dabrowski from the Ministry of Infrastructure and Construction.
It is possible that in the context of the amendment could be introduced regulations governing the use of red light sekundników, showing the time remaining to change the lights.
Although this type of device is used already in several cities (eg. Wrocław and Kraków), is, according to the MIB current law does not allow them to use. Moreover, in April resort he was of the opinion that the use of sekundników not only improves security, but may even worsen them. These findings came from a survey conducted in 2014. Grudziadz, which increased the number of cars entering at high speed at the intersection on a red light.
However, in other cities, where used second hand, the experience was positive.
– Opinions on sekundników are different. The vast majority of instructors, driving schools, however, is yes. This solution liquefies movement and is very useful especially for people who are just learning to ride. With information on how much light changes, they can prepare to move off without hampering with this movement – suggests Roman Stencel.
Therefore resort still examine the idea of sekundników.
– We will surrender the idea under consultation – we hear in the ministry.
