Abstract

In today's conditions, high-quality and proper use of all means of work, comfort, use, etc. provided to a person is important. As a result of the full use of certain resources, it is possible to satisfy human needs for the simultaneous, rational use of the provided opportunities. Traffic rules define many indicators, norms and rules for the proper use of roads, overpasses, tunnels, field roads, etc. One way or another, each of these objects is a separate species in the study of road traffic rules and the use of the road surface on it. The use of such road parts of the vehicle route as bridges is gaining importance today. Under the term given in the Road Traffic Rules, a bridge is understood as a structure designed for the movement of vehicles across a river, ravine and other obstacles. At the same time, the boundaries of which are the beginning and end of span structures. It should be understood that the introduction of this term is due to the peculiarities of certain traffic modes, in particular, stops and parking of vehicles on and under bridges. According to the classification, there are several such structures. A bridge is a crossing over a water obstacle or unevenness of the landscape, i.e. ravines. But, for example, an overpass is a crossing when two roads cross at different levels, and at the same time there is an opportunity to enter or exit from one road to another road, or a crossing with a railway at different levels. This work presents a study of the patterns of movement of freight vehicles on the bridge, taking into account the signs. In this regard, the following main tasks were put forward for the study: – conduct a study of the city bridge with active traffic; – show the presence of prohibition signs on the bridge corresponding to the assigned task; – analyze the movement of several cargo vehicles, both with and without a trailer, semi-trailer; – analytically calculate violations or their absence when using the bridge by the presented vehicles of different brands; – the research should be conducted in general on trucks used in the transportation of grain. The result of the research carried out in this work is the obtained regularity regarding possible underloading of vehicles involved in the transportation of grain by individual objects specified in their routes.
