1. General provisions

1.1. Traffic regulations * the Kyrgyz Republic (further - Rules) - complex expression of behavior on roads of participants of traffic, developed on the basis of long-term practice in the most characteristic road situations.

The purpose of Rules is - establishment of single procedure in use of roads by the land transport and other participants of traffic.

Basis of Rules constitute the right:

on life and health of the person;

on safety of complex of roads, vehicles and material values;

on providing ecological safety of the state;

on control of observance of requirements Governed participants of traffic.

These rules establish single procedure for traffic, relation between his members and the authorized staff of law-enforcement bodies performing special control, supervising and allowing functions in the field of safety control of traffic in all territory of the Kyrgyz Republic.

1.2. In Rules the following basic concepts and terms are used:

"Highway" - is expensive to high handling capacity, intended for high-speed movement of vehicles, having at least two driving lanes for each direction, separated from each other by lane line (in case of its absence - road barrier), without intersection at grades with other roads, railway or tramroads, pedestrian or bicycle lanes, designated by sign 5.1 (**).

"Emergency situation" - the situation arising in the course of traffic in case of which action or failure to act of participants of movement creates threat of emergence of the road accident.

"Road train" - the motorized vehicle linked to trail car (trail cars).

"The safe distance" - distance to the vehicle moving ahead on the same strip which in case of its sudden braking or stop will allow the transport driver, moving behind to avoid collision without emergency braking.
