Reduction of the normative level of speed of motor vehicles on the roads of the Russian Federation as a necessary addition to the national project "Safe quality roads"

The scientific article analyzes the traffic situation in the Russian Federation with statistical data. The experience of foreign countries in terms of speed limits and the introduction of amendments to the legal framework of countries is considered. The factors that directly affect the number of accidents, both in the urban area and on highways, are determined. The key problems in the speed limits approved as optimal for achieving road safety in the Russian Federation are identified. A solution is proposed - a gradual reduction in the speed limit for vehicles that drive on the roads of the country as a key task in the National project of the Russian Federation "Safe quality roads".
