It is indicated that there was no universal traffic rules for the entire Soviet
Union in 1920s, they were worked out at the local level. The rules contained requirements
for drivers: existence of the driving licenses and road sheet; requirements for
the registration signs; requirements for the cars and their registration; the rules of
exploitation of certain types of cars were described. They contained traffic speed limits
in the city, including at night time, records of vehicles and inspectors’ work. The
responsibility for the compliance with the rules was put on inspection of transport
department of the relevant local council. The traffic was regulated in order to create
the conditions for traffic safety, longstanding jams were neutralized, high transport
capacity of streets and convenience of highway service were guaranteed, technical
transport speed was increased and its use was improved. From 1921 militia officers
were offered to learn not only political literacy, arithmetic and Russian language, but
mandatory traffic regulation. As the number of automobile transport was increased it
was militia, which was responsible for traffic regulation.
