Special sensors will monitor the axial load

very Few carriers supervision of the state. Little spending on the "Plato" and "ERA-GLONASS". Little reporting. In the foreseeable future, the government will introduce another method of control to tighten the screws to companies engaged in transport services. Soon all vehicles weighing over 3.5 tons will necessarily be equipped with special sensors that measure the axial load. About this initiative soobshaet "Vedomosti".

Amendments to the technical regulations of the Customs Union are already developing industry and trade and the Ministry of transport. It is expected that the final bill will be ready by the end of 2021. If all goes according to plan, then the law will take effect in 2024.

With a clever new sensor carriers will not be able to overload your machine. And it's not only about the control on specially equipped points: any deviation from the norm will be transferred "up". And the fine for legal entities of a solid — up to 450 000 rubles.

Now on Federal highways organized by the 27 control points in 18 regions. It is expected that the number of such items will increase to 387.

So the government is fighting for the safety of roads and safety on roads. Because it exceeded the permissible axial load suffers from the roadbed, besides the truck with the transshipment worse is controlled and slow, in an emergency situation can lead to accidents.

Launched in the Vologda region the pilot project showed that the average trucker is coming with an overload of 30 %. At the same time for the year of monitoring points, the proportion of offenders dropped from 40 to 4 %.

as for the new sly sensors while we are talking only about installation on new trucks. Thus, we are not talking about refurbishing the existing fleet. Meanwhile, experts estimate the cost to completion of one machine in the amount of from several tens to several hundreds of thousands rubles.
