"Three traffic lights." Summary of a lesson on traffic rules in the preparatory group

Target: Give children knowledge that traffic light- this is a feeding device light signals.

Consolidate knowledge of the rules traffic, teaching children to behave correctly when crossing the street.

Practice orientation in road and transport situations.

Train in understanding the meaning traffic lights.

Develop logical thinking, the ability to express one’s thoughts, listen to others, train memory, observation, and attention.

Foster respect for the rules of behavior on the street and a desire to care for other children.

Activate words: traffic light, device, signal, rule, zebra crossing, crossing, pedestrian

Individual work: light n-word"warning"

Progress of the lesson:

Guys. I’ll tell you a riddle, and you listen carefully. Find the answer and find out what will happen today class.

Mystery: To help you my friend

The path is dangerous

Lights burn day and night

Green, yellow, red.

Did you guess it? Well done! This traffic light! (Show on the board) .

Let's start talking about three-eyed traffic light.

It’s not for nothing that it burns with colorful lights above us.

Guys, what is it? traffic light? (Children's answers).

Traffic light, feeder light signals regulating traffic on the street.

The very first device traffic light type was installed in 1868 on the streets of London, and

Electric tricolor traffic light appeared in 1918 in New York, here in Moscow in 1930.

let's consider traffic light what do they mean traffic lights?

Red light - stand order!

Yellow light- flashes to the people - get ready for the transition!

And the green light turns on - the path is clear, decide yourself: You can safely hurry, or you can take your time!

And now the guys will tell you poems about traffic lights. (Children come out).

1 child:Even though you have no patience, wait: red light.

Red the light tells us:

Stop! Dangerous! The path is closed!

2 child: Yellow light - warning.

Wait signal for movement

I inform you in advance

There is no more transition.

Do not hurry. Look.

Look up to the green light.

3 child: Green the light opened the way.

The guys can cross.

Now go boldly.

The path is open for pedestrians!

Come in, I allow it, it doesn’t matter that I’m alone

I reliably protect from trams and cars.

Thanks guys for the poems.

Guys, what do you think are the colors for traffic light chosen by chance or not.

What color is the emergency vehicle? What about the fire department? Only red.

This color is alarming, it reminds of danger. Seeing bright red fire truck, everyone makes way, stops, and gives her way.

Why yellow? This color is a warning. Be careful. Machines that work directly on the roads - bulldozers, cranes, rollers - what color are they painted? (yellow). Drivers see yellow from afar, slow down, and drive their cars carefully. And we, seeing yellow the signal must wait.

Green the light came on, now cross the road. Green color is calm and pleasant. This is the color of grass, leaves; In factories and factories, walls and machines are painted green to make work better.

So (showing colors)

Red - stop!

Yellow - wait!

Green - go!

Now let's play with our fingers and eyes. (finger gymnastics « traffic light» )

I show traffic lights,and you go through the motions:

Red – put your fingers on the table.

Yellow - raise your eyes, look at traffic light.

Green – fingers "walking".

Well done, you did a good job! Guys, tell me we need traffic lights?

Yes! Why? What could happen if not traffic light? (children's answers)

Let's do a warm-up:

Enye - enye - enye - we learn the rules of movement.

Or - or - or - very important traffic light.

No - no - no - we go only on green light.

If not traffic light how to cross the street? (children answer)

Now Artem will tell you this situation from the picture. Ksyusha will tell you which sign should help you.

Artem:

Where should you cross the street?

Remember the simple rule

Look to the left first

Look to the right later!

Ksyusha:

Walk across the street, there is a pedestrian where the crossing sign indicated to you.

I suggest you remember how to cross the road.

Words are activated: zebra crossing, crossing, pedestrian path.

Now let's play a game "Collect traffic light» .

Divide into 2 teams: boys and girls. From circles of red, yellow, Green colour need to collect traffic lights. We count 1 – 2 – 3 – we started.

Well done! I hope you remember the location signals at traffic lights.

Bottom line:

Guys, I liked how you handled the task. Did you like ours today? class? What interesting things did you remember about traffic lights and traffic rules? (children's answers). Now we go to visit the older children to give traffic lights.

Preparation: Illustrations, wands, colored pencils, sheets of paper, multi-colored mugs for the game, poems.

Michael, Hello.

If signs and/or markings allow turning from several lanes, then you can turn under the green arrow from any of the indicated lanes.

If there was a ban, then there would also be a clause in the traffic rules. However, since there is no prohibition, there is no clause in the rules.

Good luck on the roads!

Sergey-700

I drive through the intersection following the green arrow to the right, while the general red light is on, then I get a fine from the camera for not stopping in front of the stop line when the traffic light is prohibiting. I’ve been driving for 30 years, I’ve never heard that in this case you have to stop at the stop line and then continue driving along the arrow!

Konstantin-108

Can I, when the main green light allows only the right, enter immediately into the far left lane (two lanes not separated by markings)

When turning right, the vehicle must move as close as possible to the right edge of the roadway.

That is, if the right lane is free, then after turning you should be in the right lane. After this, you can change to the left lane.

Good luck on the roads!

Victor-154

Good afternoon. Question about the situation at an intersection controlled by traffic lights with an additional section. A street with two lanes (one into one, one into the other). before the T-junction, widening the right turn lane with an arrow. Can a car at speed, seeing that the light is straight green, but there are cars standing straight in the lane, go around them on the right in the right turn lane intended and drive straight through the intersection???

Good day! I am in a very difficult situation. Is it possible to prove in court that you are right in the following situation that happened to me. I was driving within the city limits and approached a traffic light with a speed limit of 60 km/h on a red light. My lane (middle) was free. When approaching a traffic light, the permissive traffic light (green) lights up, and I continue moving straight without stopping. But at the intersection there was a car, which I did not notice, since T.S.’s column was standing on my left. who was waiting for the traffic light to turn green, turned left onto a secondary road and did not let me pass. I caused a collision. During the trial, the investigator accused me and issued a fine due to non-compliance with clause 13.8 of the traffic rules. But the peculiarity of the traffic light regulation of this intersection is such that at the traffic light (T1) of the usual design (without an additional arrow to the left) on the opposite side of the movement, the permitting signal (green) lights up 20 seconds earlier. And it turns out that traffic participants who enter the intersection before do not have information about when the traffic light will turn on on the opposite side. Since there is no redundant traffic light and no sign "6.16 STOP LINE and, accordingly, markings 1.12. I think that at this intersection, according to GOST, a T1l traffic light + redundant traffic light should be installed and marking 1.12 with a sign 6.16 should be applied. Provided that the road surface at this section of the road has three lanes in each direction. I am sure that at least there is the fault of both participants. traffic accident. Do I have a chance to challenge the investigator’s decision in court? (The cars received very serious damage), it’s good that we ourselves were miraculously not injured.

I am more than grateful for your response.

Victor, Hello.

If there are no signs and (or) markings at the intersection regulating the directions of movement along the lanes, then you can drive straight in any lane.

Good luck on the roads!

Farhat, Hello.

Indicate which traffic lights were on for the oncoming car in the previous cycle (when yours was still red) and which signal was on when yours turned green.

Maxim, good afternoon!

He entered the intersection at the traffic light for 20 seconds. before me, but at the same time the traffic light signal that allows him continues to light until the end of the traffic light cycle. When my traffic light turned green, most of it remained green. The question is why should I give in to him? At the same time, I also had emergency braking. Neither the video is clearly visible when the green signal lights up for me, it begins to cross the dividing strip.

Thanks in advance!

Can a car at speed, seeing that the light is straight green, but there are cars standing straight in the lane, go around them on the right in the right turn lane intended and drive straight through the intersection???

Maybe anyway. If, when passing those standing on green, he does not violate the requirements of the signs and markings, then he will not violate the Rules when passing.

Farhat, it seems that you have already read clause 13.8 of the traffic rules. It says - the light turns green - let everyone who is already at the intersection pass. There is, of course, clause 13.4 of the traffic rules. You can appeal the decision of the investigator. Moreover, perhaps you did not have the opportunity to see the person turning and prevent a collision:

clause 10.1 of traffic rules - If a traffic hazard arises that the driver able to detect, he must take possible measures to reduce the speed until the vehicle stops.

Farhat, V in this case the driver of the other car violated the requirements of paragraph 13.4 of the traffic rules:

13.4. When turning left or making a U-turn at a green traffic light, the driver of a trackless vehicle must give way to vehicles moving straight or to the right from the opposite direction. Tram drivers should follow the same rule among themselves.

In this case, it makes sense to try to challenge the decision.

Good luck on the roads!

Nikolay-215

Crossroads, lit green light, there is a separate section to the left, it does not light up, can I turn if there is no obstacle or do I need to wait? And how much is the fine for this?

clause 6.3 of traffic regulations: Additional section signal turned off or the red light signal on its outline means that movement in the direction regulated by this section is prohibited.

Fine - Code of Administrative Offenses Article 12.12.

When turning left, you must give way to oncoming traffic no matter what traffic light they are going straight to.

That's right. However, it is no less true - when the traffic light turns on, give way to vehicles completing their movement through the intersection, because this is exactly what traffic violation Farhat is charged.

Hello! The configuration of the intersection is as follows - the intersection of a street and a highway (main road + backup road). At the traffic light, the arrow to the right turns red. Can I turn right onto the main highway (i.e. go straight through the first intersection), or can I only turn right onto the alternate? Unfortunately, it is impossible to wait for the main green one without disturbing others.

Hello! At one intersection there can be several directions to the right. The traffic light determines the order of movement in the intended direction and acts on all crossroads The exception is clause 13.7 of the traffic rules. Therefore, following the arrow, you are allowed to move in any direction to the right.

Unfortunately, in exam papers(questions 23-6 and 37-6) “correct” answers do not comply with the provisions of the traffic rules.

Konstantin-115

Good day, I have the following question: who should give in to whom in this case:

"A" Turn left from main to secondary

"B" Exit from the secondary road to the main road and turn left under sign 2.4

Konstantin-115, Hello. There are no main or secondary roads at signalized intersections. There is a permitting or prohibiting signal from a traffic light (traffic controller).

Vitaly-144

Good afternoon.

When making a right turn on the secondary green section, should I give way to a vehicle approaching the intersection on my right and turning around on the primary green signal?

Vitaly, Hello.

Yes, they should. You must yield to vehicles coming from any other direction. :

13.5. When driving in the direction of the arrow turned on in the additional section simultaneously with a yellow or red traffic light, the driver is obliged to give way to vehicles moving from other directions.

Good luck on the roads!

Good afternoon.

There is an intersection where for turning right and going straight there are 2 separate traffic lights, both with corresponding arrows. They work in such a way that when the traffic light is red to move straight, the second traffic light with arrows to the right is green and you can turn right. At the same time, cars from the opposite direction turn left. Those turning left have a traffic light with additional section, but this is not so important, because I can’t see if their main signal is on and, in principle, I would like to understand the situation with two separate traffic lights with arrows, how this is regulated.

Please tell me how to correctly drive through the intersection in my case? Does a separate traffic light with arrows to the right count as an "additional section", do I need to give way to cars driving on the left? Or should I assume that my main green light is on and I am making a right turn on the main green light?

Images of the intersection are attached.

Hello.

Paragraph 6.3 of the traffic rules:

6.3. Traffic light signals, made in the form of red, yellow and green arrows, have the same meaning as round signals of the corresponding color, but their effect extends only to the direction(s) indicated by the arrows. In this case, the arrow allowing a left turn also allows a U-turn, unless this is prohibited by the corresponding road sign.

The green arrow in the additional section has the same meaning. A switched off signal of an additional section or a switched on red light signal of its outline means that movement in the direction regulated by this section is prohibited.

In short:

There are 2 types of traffic lights (with signals in the form of arrows and with additional sections). The rules are different for them.

You only need to yield in the case of a traffic light with an additional section.

In your example, there is a different traffic light - with signals in the form of arrows. It does not oblige you to give way to vehicles from other directions.

Good luck on the roads!

Sergey-862

Driving through a controlled intersection: turn left, I’m standing at the intersection, I look at the traffic light on the front left, it lights up yellow, then red, do I have the right to start driving - turn left?

Sergey-862,

Good afternoon.

Traffic rules of the Russian Federation; 13. Driving through intersections; 13.7. A driver who enters an intersection when the traffic light signal permits must drive in the intended direction regardless of the traffic light signal at the exit from the intersection. However, if at the intersection in front of the traffic lights located on the driver’s route there are stop lines (signs 6.16), the driver must follow the signals of each traffic light.

When turning left, make sure that the red light is turned on for oncoming traffic.

Sergey-862, the rules allow you to complete your movement through the intersection (traffic rules point).

However, you must understand that turning on red for your direction does not guarantee that red will also turn on for the opposite direction. If oncoming cars are driving, you must first give way to them, and only then turn.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello! We have a 4-lane roadway, 2 lanes in each direction. Traffic light with an additional section to the left and a main round green one. With the additional section to the left turned off and the general green light turned on, do I have the right to make a left turn or a U-turn on the far left, or continue moving straight on the far left?

Egor-26, Hello.

A switched off signal of an additional section or a switched on red light signal of its outline means prohibition of movement in the direction regulated by this section.

You cannot turn left. The rules do not prohibit driving straight in the left lane (unless additional signs 5.15.1 and 5.15.2 are installed).

Good luck on the roads!

Sergey-750

Maxim, I would like to know your opinion on the topic - are there traffic lanes at the intersection if there are no 1.7 markings, if there are no signs or markings at all.

Maxim, let’s assume that before intersection 1.18 or 5.15.1 (5.15.2) it is allowed to turn left from two lanes. The one who is in the lane to the right will decide to move to the lane on the left. When changing lanes, he is obliged to give way or will have an advantage, because is a hindrance on the right side for another? There is no 1.7 markup. Perhaps we can’t talk about rebuilding here, because... both change the direction of movement and it remains to apply clause 8.9. Thank you for your answer and for the SDA-MASTER in general.

There are several intersections in St. Petersburg, with additional ones. sections at traffic lights for turning left. But! At the same time, the main section of the traffic light does not have any contours to indicate the direction of movement, and, thus, does not inform drivers at all about the operation of the additional one. sections. This is a pure provocation for drivers! Such a section was added at the corner of Fontanka and Nevsky Prospekt. But she didn’t work at all for two weeks, which led to bustle and traffic jams. And when it started working, no one for a long time I couldn’t understand that it was working (neither the red outline in the additional section, nor the black outline in the main one). Again, traffic jam, bustle, traffic cops. What should a driver do, what should he say to a traffic cop if you have turned onto the main green and there are no visible hints that the additional section is working?

Aoexei, in this case it makes sense to in writing contact the organization that is responsible for organizing traffic at the intersection. In your appeal, you must indicate that you are asking to correct the situation and put arrows on the main section of the traffic light. In this case, you can refer to clause 4.2.10 of GOST 52282-2004:

4.2.10 If there is an additional section, contour arrows of the directions of movement are applied to the diffuser of the main green signal. In this case, a traffic light without an additional section signal in the form of a red ring must be equipped with a white screen in accordance with GOST 33385 with a retroreflectivity coefficient for type A films in accordance with GOST R 52290.

Good luck on the roads!

Sergey-750

Maxim, about the example from the article, white will give way to orange, either because of changing lanes or because of interference on the right. This is avoiding the problem. But if the orange one decides to turn into the left lane, where the white one should turn. Why 8.9, when there are signs 5.15.2, valid for the entire intersection and allowing left turns in two lanes AT THE INTERSECTION. When changing lanes, orange is inferior. There is no uncertainty - clause 8.9 is not applicable. Do you agree?

Classic three-section traffic light.

Any of us knows from childhood that a red traffic light prohibits movement, and now both drivers are required to stop at the stop line.

But not everyone knows how a modern “advanced” traffic light works, what signals it may have and how exactly they alternate.

During the traffic police exam you will be asked:

What does the combination of red and yellow traffic lights mean?

The answer should not leave you in doubt - A brief combination of red and yellow signals informs drivers that the green signal will soon turn on.

Red and yellow lights go out, green lights turn on, and you can move in all directions (unless, of course, signs or markings indicate otherwise).

But don't rush to start moving. The author of these lines has seen so many troubles and tragedies when neighbors along the road blindly followed the green signal. And this is not just advice, it is a requirement of the Rules.

Rules. Section 13. Clause 13.8. When the traffic light turns on, the driver is obliged to give way to vehicles completing their movement through the intersection, and to pedestrians who have not completed crossing the roadway in this direction.

That is, before you start moving, you need to make sure that those who have now turned red have stopped. Someone may simply not have time to stop, but someone is in such a hurry that they are ready to rush through the intersection risking their lives (okay, only their own, but also someone else’s too).

Well, finally, the drivers on the road being crossed have stopped at their stop lines, and now they can start driving. We still see green light.

The green one burned, burned and blinked.

And again, during the traffic police exam, someone will definitely get this question:

What does a flashing green traffic light mean?

And again the answer is obvious - The flashing green light informs drivers that its time is expiring and the yellow light will soon turn on.

Is it possible to move when the green light is flashing? Don't doubt it, it's possible. Its duration is expiring, but it has not expired yet!

Another thing is that the green light will not blink for long - it will blink only three times and then go out.

Green will go out, but then yellow will light up. And this is what is said about the lonely yellow signal in the Rules, in paragraph 6.2:

« Yellow signal prohibits movement and warns about the upcoming change of signals.”

And this is where it is important for the driver to understand!If the lone yellow light is on, then red will be next! That is, you will definitely have to stop!

Now imagine that the yellow light turns on when there are 5 - 10 meters left to the stop line. At a speed of 60 km/h, you can only hold the car by applying emergency braking! And even then, you will have to stop at the intersection (by crossing the stop line and risking getting hit from behind). Novice drivers often do this (they brake sharply when the light turns yellow), and if an aggressive driver was driving behind them, “ experienced driver", then a blow from behind is guaranteed to a beginner in this situation.

Meanwhile, the Rules prohibit sudden braking anywhere and everywhere (except for cases when it is necessary to prevent an accident):

Rules. Section 10. Clause 10.5. The driver is prohibited Brake sharply unless necessary to prevent a traffic accident.

That is, if the driver of a brown car suddenly brakes now, he will violate the requirement of paragraph 10.5 of the Rules. And in in case of an accident Both will be to blame - the driver of the red car is to blame because he did not keep a safe distance, and the driver of the brown car is to blame because he braked unduly sharply.

The Rules treated this situation with understanding and allowed movement on a yellow traffic light (if it is no longer possible to stop smoothly in front of the stop line):

Rules. Section 6. Clause 6.14. Drivers who cannot stop when the yellow light turns on without resorting to emergency braking are allowed to continue driving.

And you may also be asked about this during the exam: “Are you allowed to continue driving if, when the traffic light turns yellow after the green light, you can only stop before the intersection by applying emergency braking?”

And here the answer should be absolutely clear to you - allowed. It’s simply allowed in any direction you want.

The lone yellow light will not burn for long - literally after a couple of seconds it will change to red, and the cycle will start all over again. But when the signal is red, drivers must definitely stop at the stop line.

And that's not all about traffic lights. If the traffic is not intense, then it is irrational to keep drivers at stop lines, and the traffic light can be switched to the so-called yellow flashing signal mode.

That is, red and green are not turned on at all, and only yellow is turned on all the time. Moreover, it does not just light up, but blinks at a frequency of once per second. This is how this signal is described in the Rules:

Rules. Section 6. Clause 6.2. Yellow flashing signal allows traffic and informs about the presence of an unregulated intersection or pedestrian crossing.

In this situation, drivers must independently determine the order of travel, guided by general principle"interference on the right."

There is a problem in the traffic police book (shown below), which you often make mistakes when solving. Some of you for some reason choose the third answer. Most likely, because they did not read the question carefully. And the question says “when the traffic light is flashing yellow”! And, consequently, this intersection has become unregulated. And, therefore, we must be guided by priority signs.

Traffic lights with an additional section (or with two additional sections).

A classic three-section traffic light can be equipped with an additional section (right or left) or two additional sections (right and left).

Such “rationalization” makes it possible to significantly increase the throughput of the intersection; it is only important that drivers correctly understand the signals of such a traffic light.

And, first of all, it is necessary to understand that movement in the direction of the arrow is only allowed when the additional section is turned on.

For example, traffic to the right is now open.

And only to the right and nowhere else!

Anyone who needs to go in other directions must stand and wait for the main green signal to turn on.

The main green signal is turned on, and note that there are black outline arrows on the main green signal.

This was not the case at a three-section traffic light, but for a traffic light with an additional section, the presence of contour arrows on the main green one is a must-have!

Now movement is allowed only in the directions indicated by the contour arrows.

But now traffic is open in all directions.


In what directions can the driver of the brown car continue driving?

1. Straight or left.

2. Just straight ahead.

What should he do if he needs to go to the right?

1. You'll have to go to the next intersection.

2. You need to stand at the stop line and wait for the right arrow to turn on.

Comment on the task

Now the traffic light allows you to turn left and make a U-turn. But only those in the left lane can do this. The driver of a brown car can only drive straight ahead at such traffic lights.

Traffic lights designed to regulate traffic in certain directions.

Creative thought does not stand still, and traffic organizers were not satisfied with the fact that they proposed adding additional sections to the traditional traffic light. If necessary, you can provide a classic three-section traffic light with additional functions without equipping it with additional sections.

You approach an intersection and see instead of one traffic light there are three (according to the number of lanes in your direction).

It should be assumed that the effect of each traffic light extends only to the lane above which it hangs. And since the red signal is on everywhere, it means traffic from all lanes is prohibited.

Students. But why do red arrows light up instead of the usual round signal?

Teacher. This is done so that drivers approaching the intersection can change lanes in advance.

And the same arrows will light up on the yellow signal, informing drivers about the directions in which they will be allowed to move from this lane when the green signal turns on.

Now traffic is allowed from all lanes.

BUT!

It is necessary to adhere to the instructions dictated by the arrows on traffic lights.

Traffic light with a flashing yellow signal.

The most dangerous intersections in the driver's path are an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing and an uncontrolled intersection. At these intersections, drivers must independently determine the order of passage, guided by the relevant requirements of the Rules.

Traffic safety can be significantly improved if simple traffic lights with one yellow flashing signal are installed at such intersections. The continuous flashing of the yellow signal informs the driver in advance that he is approaching an unregulated intersection or pedestrian crossing.

There was no traffic light at this intersection. We hung it here using the Photoshop graphic editor.

But if he were actually here, this accident most likely would not have happened.

And these two-way traffic lights with a flashing yellow signal are not at all superfluous at an unregulated pedestrian crossing.

Reversible traffic lights.

Until recently, roads with reversible traffic were almost exotic in our country (although they have always been in the Rules).

And today you can often see such a warning.

And here it is - a section of the road with reverse traffic.

The roadway has appropriate markings (double broken lines with long strokes), and reversible traffic lights hang above the lanes designated for reversible traffic.

Now we have green arrows on at all traffic lights, and while they are on, these three lanes are given over to traffic in our direction.

On this section of the road, only one lane is allocated for reversible traffic. And now at the reverse traffic light we see a red cross. And, therefore, now the reversible lane is given to drivers in the opposite direction.

In our country it is accepted right-hand traffic transport and, in principle, everyone understands that when clearing the reverse lane, you need to change lanes to the right.

However, the Rules also provide for a three-section reversible traffic light - the yellow arrow, firstly, informs about the upcoming signal change, and, secondly, shows drivers where to change lanes, freeing up the reversible lane.

Now is the time for the driver of the blue jeep to turn on the right turn signals and immediately change lanes to the right. At the next reversible traffic light, a red cross will already be on.

Traffic lights for regulating traffic through railway crossings.

To regulate the movement of traffic through railway crossings, the Rules provide for three types of traffic lights.

This can be either one red light flashing once per second.

Or two alternately flashing red signals.

Or, along with two red signals, a white-lunar signal can also be installed, which, if turned on, also blinks at a frequency of once per second.

Now let's see what the Rules say about this:

Rules. Section 6. Clause 6.9. Round white moon flashing signal located on railway crossing, allows movement Vehicle through relocation. When the flashing white-lunar and red signals are turned off, movement is permitted if there is no train (locomotive, handcar) approaching the crossing within sight.

That is, if one red signal is flashing or two red signals are flashing alternately, movement through the crossing is prohibited.

If the white-lunar signal is flashing, movement through the crossing is permitted.

If nothing is flashing, movement through the crossing is also allowed. BUT! Not just allowed. First, the driver must make sure that there is no approaching train (within visibility!). And if there is one, then movement through the crossing is prohibited.

In conclusion, we note that GOST allows the use of conventional traffic lights at railway crossings.

Four-section traffic light with moon-white signals.

The use of such traffic lights makes it possible to organize conflict-free movement of route vehicles at intersections. We are talking about trams, as well as buses and trolleybuses, if they move along a lane specially allocated for them.

Now at the traffic light all four white-lunar signals are on and, therefore, the tram (bus, trolleybus) can move in all directions.

If the bottom signal and the top left signal are on, the tram (bus, trolleybus) is allowed to move to the left.

If the lower signal and the middle upper signal are on, the tram (bus, trolleybus) is allowed to move straight.

If the bottom signal and the top right signal are on, the tram (bus, trolleybus) is allowed to move to the right.

If the bottom signal is not on, then the tram (bus, trolleybus) is turned on “brick” - entry into the intersection is prohibited.

Now the tram is allowed to go straight or to the left, and we are allowed to go straight or to the right.

Indeed, a conflict-free movement.

Now the tram is allowed to go straight or to the right, and we will stand at the stop line.

And again, no conflict.

But now the tram will be stationary, but we can go in all directions.

And again, no conflict.

Children, our friend is a TRAFFIC LIGHT.
Explains without stress
Traffic rules for children.

Listen and remember
And always follow them.
The RED light came on -
Stop, baby, there's no way through.

YELLOW light, look, it's on -
Get ready says.
And the light turned on GREEN -
Come in, my scientist friend.

Remember the traffic rules
Like a multiplication table!

Our green traffic light...

On the wide pavement
Stands in guard uniform.
He's standing under a traffic light
He sees everyone with a tenacious gaze!

The red light comes on:
Stop, guys! No progress!
There is traffic for cars -
Let's wait calmly, don't rush!

We look into the eyes of the traffic light:
He's cheerful, there's no doubt about it,
Every color is very important -
We are waiting for you - green light!

Let's walk along the paths
Striped like a cat
We won't rush
Let's not forget to be careful.

Do you remember everything, guys?
Let's walk along the striped zebra,
We are always waiting for the green light,
This will be our answer!

Red-stop! Be careful
The path to yellow is impossible!
Wait for the green light
Is it safe? - make sure!...

No and Yes

What is RED LIGHT?
- It's NO and NO and NO -
NO, don't go, don't run,
Don't walk - stand and wait.

GREEN LIGHT means YES,
Don't yawn, gentlemen!
YES - walk and go YES!
Wait? - no problem.

Between them is a YELLOW LIGHT.
YELLOW LIGHT - neither YES nor NO...

Three eyes...

Anna Samuilovna Shtro

A traffic light has three eyes.
Well, remember them, my friend,
Walk the streets so that soon
You could do it on your own.

That red eye... Be afraid of it!
When it burns, there is no way.
Flashing yellow - get ready!
Green light - go!

Nobody knows yet
What does a traffic light dream about?
But for me there is no mystery!
When the red light comes on
He dreams that everyone will freeze
At least for a few minutes.
And he turns on the yellow light,
When a little irritated
And wants to change something -
Run, jump, ring.
When the green light is on
The traffic light looks cheerful:
Gave permission signal
And I dreamed about movement.

And if our traffic light is broken,
He doesn't dream of anything.

Traffic light

Galina Tomashevskaya 2

Cars drive back and forth.
The traffic light blinks and never stops.
If it breaks
people won't like it
And many accidents will happen.


A real guard!
It's not in vain that he blinks -
helps to ride

A traffic light is a good, reliable friend.
Residents all around are happy about him:
Dads, moms, schoolchildren, kids,
The one who hurries to kindergarten in the morning.

Who needs to go, who needs to stand? -
Colors help to understand this.
The traffic light is in plain sight,
So that no one gets into trouble!

Even if you are in a hurry on business,
You will slow down in front of a zebra sign.
Follow the road rules!
Don't drive on the highway at speed!

Cars drive back and forth.
The traffic light blinks and never stops.
If it breaks
people won't like it.
And many accidents will happen.

The traffic light stands like a sentry,
A real guard!
It's not in vain that he blinks -
helps to ride
And saves you and me from troubles!

Ivan Radion

Let's sing in chorus guys:
We are friends with a traffic light.
He, like the Sun, is a faithful friend:
A ray of light instead of hands.

Red light - we stand in response,
Hello to those passing through.
If yellow light is visible,
Get ready - advice.

Green light ahead -
Drive or walk.
But look around -
And we will be lucky.

Who is not a friend to a traffic light,
He is preparing grief for himself.
I value true friendship:
Hello! - I will tell him.

Irina Gurina

Red eye traffic light
He looked at me point blank.
I stood and waited silently,
Because I knew for sure:

If the red light is on,
The pedestrian always stands.
If you see a red light
This means - there is no move!

Cars drove by
And the tires rustled quietly.
The tractor was driving, rattling,
The dump truck ran after him,

Long, long timber truck
I was carrying logs along the way.
The yellow light is on under the red:
It's still dangerous to go!

Transport began to slow down
To clear the way.
The yellow light came on -
There is no way for anyone.

Pedestrians don't walk
And the cars are waiting too!
The traffic light blinked and - time!
He lit up his green eye!

Striped transition
There are different types of pedestrians waiting for you:
Mom is walking with a stroller,
A lady is walking with a dog,

The baby is carrying a toy,
The old man leads the old lady
Two girls are walking
The cars are quietly waiting.

The green light is on
It's as if he's saying:
- Please go
But just don't run!

And if on the path
The ambulance will howl,
You'll miss it
And only then go!

Green - safe,
But red is dangerous.
Green - we're going
And yellow and red - we’re waiting!

Traffic light

Zinaida Berezina-Khrushch

And recently we have
There is a traffic light near the house.
It burns day and night
He tries to help everyone.

If the red light comes on,
Don't you dare rush.
Everyone knows it's red. -
The path is dangerous.

And don't go to yellow
Just stand still and wait.

Mom's hand - and we wait.
All the people are with us
The green one is waiting patiently,
To move forward.

There's a flash of green! Soon!
He winked: “You can’t stand!”
Soon the color of the traffic light
It will change to red again.

Who among us will boast
What does the third eye have?
Who, without knowing any worries,
Invariably one-legged
And stands without fuss,
Full of proud beauty?
I wish I could stand like this
Blink your yellow eye.
Flash red -
Stop, freeze!
Do not say anything,
Wait,
And maybe now
The green eye will sparkle!

I, a very strict traffic light,
I serve at crossroads
Any driver knows me
And pedestrians too.
I'm on duty day and night,
No day off
My eyes do not know sleep,
Don't get tired of blinking.
I allow it for pedestrians
Just go to the green light
And if I flash red,
You can't go! You, my ban!

Traffic light

Ollya Lukoeva

At the crossroads of two roads
There is a handsome man with different eyes.
He was completely chilled in the wind
He's probably lonely.

His eyes are full of love,
But he looks at passers-by with authority:
The green ones will wink - go,
"Stop!" will order the Reds.

And suddenly it lights up yellow,
Then be very careful
And don’t rush to catch up with your friends -
Your eye is not at all accurate.

Handsome guy knows all brands
Mopeds and cars.
It burns during the day and in the dark,
He offers to live only in peace.

He urges us not to joke
With speed, follow the light.
So that the thread of life does not break
Drive only for green!

There is a traffic light at the intersection,
Our eternal guard does not sleep,
His bright gaze does not go out...
Let your trust in him grow stronger!

Traffic light-2

Ollya Lukoeva

On the road there is swearing, arguing,
who will pass first now?
the traffic light will judge everyone -
he has nerves of steel.

In the wind, in the snow and heat,
guards the crossroads
from people's madness sometimes
protects with red light.

He has three eyes and many colors,
you must obey him,
only light turns green
there is movement. Be alive!

Don't be reckless, red eye
prohibits travel. Stop!
Life is not a toy for you
It’s bad to be under repair.

Everyone wishes a traffic light
and health and success,
because for a long time
does not serve people for laughs.

Olga Borisova 5

This vigilant traffic light
Prevents congestion from occurring.
Watches the cars
He leads them.
If yellow gives light,
Brake - there is no progress,
Wait for the next signal
Yellow warned you.
If the red light flashes,
There is a ban on movement,
And he will light the green one,
The path is clear - all forward!
What a miracle - a traffic light!
On the roads there is a conductor,
So that the machines know for sure
Pedestrians were allowed through.

Traffic light

Olga Shalimova

Two roads intersection
Suddenly they put it together,
We whispered only from a thimble,
We ran away at the same time
They alone know the point -
When will they meet again?
Or maybe never!
Or maybe not dots?

Well, what about everyone else?
To those who walk and run
Along one of two roads,
So they can knock each other down,
Let's start a clash!
How each other behave
Should I warn them in life?
Someone must speak -
Who should go and go,
And for someone - wait!

And then at the crossroads
A traffic light appeared -
Of course he is very strict
But go against
His opinion is not worth it -
Life is more valuable!
Harmfulness is nonsense!

His red eye is forbidden
Blocks the way forward -
Don't rush, even though life is fussy,
But he's waiting for you at home
The whole family is alive and healthy!
And why bother others?
Continue your journey alive?

The yellow eye tells me to finish,
Clear the way for others!
If you remember the rule -
We will all live long!

Finally the green light
Our traffic light has blossomed -
If you took all the advice,
He crossed the road!

The traffic light is happy and happy,
That he managed to please everyone,
And a miraculous smile
Give gifts to pedestrians!

Traffic light riddle


Sergey Vakhlyarsky 2

If you're not smart enough
Spend a little time
(Wait just a little,
So that the road is empty)
And turn the gas up to the floor,
And you’ll rush forward like an animal,
At least he still signaled: “No,”
There is a yellow light in that device -
You'll get into trouble.

After all, it is possible that now,
They also press on the gas on the right.

I reminded you about the device
Under the name...

Traffic light

Tamara Vtorova

We've been on the road for a long time
A traffic light helps -
Regulates movement
Where life is everywhere
Both cars and pedestrians,
He stands at the crossings:
If the red light is on -
Stop! Dangerous, he says!
If yellow is ahead,
Then wait a little
And the green light is on,
There is no danger here -
Go boldly on your journey
And don’t forget -
Traffic light,
Traffic light,
Like a friend
wink!

Traffic light riddle

Tatiana Gette

HE HAS EVERYTHING
Three eyes,
But not all
Open immediately.
If red
The eye is open
This means
He's angry-
On the move
Forward
Permission
Does not give!
Opens
Yellow eye-
Be careful
Now-
Wait green
Eye color.
And I saw-
Right there right away
You can go
And go!
And happy
Way to go!

Traffic light

Shalamov Andrey Vladimirovich

He regulates the movement
At the crossroads, from above,
Stands alone on a hill
It is full of austere beauty.

With your iron leg
He stands firmly on the ground,
Shows you and me
When we have to go.

Green if lit,
Cross the road
The path to all cars here is closed,
But still look around!

And if red flared,
Just wait a little
He gave us a ban on going,
Gave way to cars.

If yellow gave the answer,
The dangerous moment has come:
What kind of light will come on for us?
Green or red?

The green one will call us on our way,
And the red one will greet you strictly.
This is how life goes on the road,
Let everyone notice it.

Always cross the path
Be careful, it's dangerous here!
Always look around
And everything will be fine!

Traffic light


Elvina Aksenova

Previously, instead of traffic lights
There were stones at the crossroads.
Like, there is no need to go there,
And come here, people.

Instead of red, drawing
The snake's mouth!
If you run a red light,
Then your fate is an abyss...

Instead of yellow, for example,
A simple horse was drawn.
Don't go to the left, my friend,
It's better to stay here.

And to the right - a maple leaf,
Like a five, revealed!
This means the light is green,
The way is clear, he says!

And now at the crossroads,
Instead of a stone there is a traffic light.
Living now is easy and simple!
Do as he asks!
Traffic light

Yuri Gashinov

Our wonderful three-eyed friend,
He flashes everyone around.
And his task is strictly
Safe road.

The red light came on -
All drivers are prohibited.
There is an opportunity to relax
And then continue on your way.

A yellow light flashed through the window,
Get ready a little
But the passerby flies, hurries,
It's no good for us to scare him.

Is there a zebra lying here? Lying down!
So it's running correctly.

The flow of cars has started -
The green light allowed.
There is order because
Must follow it.


At first glance, traffic light signals are all very simple and we have all known them since childhood. Red - stop, yellow - get ready, green - go. This is a very simple rule. In this article we will look at this rule deeper within the framework.


Let's find all the pitfalls hidden in traffic lights. The most interesting signals will be those that are located in the additional section of the traffic light and what signals there may be in this section. We will look at Chapter 6 of the Traffic Rules regarding the regulation of traffic through an intersection using traffic lights.

6.1. Traffic lights use green, yellow, red and white-lunar light signals.

Depending on the purpose, traffic light signals can be round, in the form of an arrow(s), a silhouette of a pedestrian or a bicycle, or X-shaped.

Traffic lights with round signals may have one or two additional sections with signals in the form of a green arrow(s), which are located at the level of the green round signal.

We will not consider white-lunar traffic lights, in the form of a silhouette of a pedestrian or a bicycle, and X-shaped ones in this article.

6.2. Round traffic lights have the following meanings:

  • A green signal allows movement;
  • A green flashing signal allows movement and informs that its time is expiring and a prohibitory signal will soon be turned on (digital displays can be used to inform drivers about the time in seconds remaining until the end of the green signal);
  • The yellow signal prohibits movement, except in cases provided for in paragraph 6.14 of the Rules, and warns of an upcoming change of signals;
  • A yellow flashing signal allows movement and informs about the presence of an unregulated intersection or pedestrian crossing, warns of danger;
  • A red signal, including a flashing one, prohibits movement.

The combination of red and yellow signals prohibits movement and informs about the upcoming activation of the green signal.

This paragraph of the traffic rules describes round traffic lights. The most common traffic light, which is most often found on the roads.

6.3. Traffic light signals, made in the form of red, yellow and green arrows, have the same meaning as round signals of the corresponding color, but their effect extends only to the direction(s) indicated by the arrows. In this case, the arrow allowing a left turn also allows a U-turn, unless this is prohibited by the corresponding road sign.

The green arrow in the additional section has the same meaning. A switched off signal of an additional section means that movement in the direction regulated by this section is prohibited.

The first thing you should pay attention to is that the signals are made in the form of arrows, i.e. the arrow is a signal. The signal is not round. Traffic light signals with a contour arrow do not fit this definition, and clause 6.3 of the traffic rules is not applicable to them.

The second important point is that traffic light signals made in the form of arrows regulate only indicated directions. For example, if the red arrow to the right is on, then movement is prohibited only to the right; moving straight, turning left and turning around are not regulated by this signal.

The same applies to the green arrow signal, but only if the arrow is in the main section of the traffic light. Determining, for example, in the dark, whether this is the main section of a traffic light or an additional one is very simple - if the section is additional, then some signal in the main section of the traffic light must be on; if there are no other signals besides the arrow, then this means that the arrow is in the main sections.

6.4. If a black contour arrow(s) is applied to the main green traffic light signal, it informs drivers about the presence of an additional section of the traffic light and indicates other permitted directions of movement than the additional section signal.

This paragraph describes the purpose of the contour arrow of a traffic light signal. We see that a contour arrow can only be placed in the main section, and only on a green traffic light signal, and unlike a signal in the form of an arrow, a contour arrow allows movement only in the indicated directions. Traffic in other directions is prohibited.

We could finish our material here, if not for one very common situation in practice. We often come across a traffic light with the following signal:

In front of us is a traffic light with an additional section and a round signal. It would seem that according to paragraph 6.3, moving in the direction regulated by this section is prohibited.

But let's figure it out:

  • According to clause 6.2, a round green signal allows movement in all directions, clause 6.3 regulates traffic light signals made in the form of arrows, in this case clause 6.3 is not applicable.
  • The additional section may not be visible at night, and traffic light signals may not have different meaning depending on the time of day.
  • The direction regulated by the additional section is unknown to us, we only know that it is “different” from the signal in the main section, and in the main section we have a green signal that allows movement in all directions,
  • The additional section may not contain a traffic light signal at all, but can be used, for example, for a timer.

Thus, with a given traffic light signal, according to clause 6.2, movement is allowed in all directions, unless otherwise prohibited by signs or markings.

Response from the Ministry of Internal Affairs

Let's summarize:

  • The round traffic light signal extends to all directions,
  • The traffic light signal, made in the form of an arrow in the main section, applies only to the indicated direction and does not regulate traffic in other directions,
  • The traffic light signal, made in the form of an arrow in the additional section, applies only to the indicated direction and prohibits movement in other directions,
  • A round traffic light signal with a contour arrow on it applies only to the indicated direction and prohibits movement in other directions.

And this is how the TV show sees the situation “ the main road"on NTV.

Dear you without obstacles!
