For placing a phone, navigator or video recorder on the windshield, you can receive a warning or a fine of 500 rubles, the State Traffic Inspectorate told Autonews.
The department explained that operating a vehicle is prohibited if objects mounted on the glass obstruct the driver's vision. The exceptions are rear mirrors, windshield wipers, radio antennas and elements of glass heating systems.
If the gadget significantly restricts the view, the driver may be liable under Part 1 of Art. 12.5 Code of Administrative Offenses.
However, the mere presence of a device on glass is not considered an infringement. The decision on a fine is made considering the circumstances of a particular case.
The traffic police recommends placing gadgets so that they do not block the view and do not distract from driving.
