New fines are being imposed on drivers

Most drivers do not pay much attention to such a trifle as the color of their car’s direction indicators. But there are clear rules. Therefore, the police can fine the driver for abnormal headlights.

We previously wrote that Ukrainians are heavily fined for “summer” break.

According to the Road Traffic Rules, the front and rear direction indicators of a vehicle must be yellow. But American cars that have been imported in recent years have red turn signals. Many American car owners did not pay attention to the requirements, so they are facing huge fines.

according to Traffic lawyer, the color of the turn signals is clearly regulated. In 2017, new requirements appeared for the technical condition of cars, covering the color of the warning lights. As a result, paragraph 6.1.5 of GOST clearly states that turn signals on cars must be yellow. According to clause 9.1.a of the traffic regulations, direction signals are classified as warning signals. At the same time, according to Part 2 of Article 122 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 425 hryvnias is provided for the use and conversion of warning signs that violate standards.

Also, you should not update your car and install very bright headlights, or decorate them as much as possible. Replacing standard headlights with xenon, halogen or LED lights is a violation of the Road Traffic Regulations (TRAF). This is due to the danger to other road users, as bright lights can create a danger by blinding drivers in the dark. And it can cause a fine of 510 UAH. If they are violated again, the license can be taken away and the car will be taken to the impoundment area.

A fine is not just a punishment for breaking traffic rules, but a form of payment for road safety.
