Dug tanks, many kilometers of queue in which to stand for 10 hours, travel bans and total searches of cars - that's what scares some media and Internet resources when they write about what is happening on the road checkpoints on the Crimean-Ukrainian border .
A week ago, I wrote about how the reality of the process of crossing the border, if you are traveling by train, today will tell you how and what happens when you cross the border, if you go by car.
So, we had to go for Sevastopol in Zaporozhye - four people in a car with Sebastopol rooms (two women and two men).
Fearing that the border will be a long time, left early in the morning to catch in Zaporizhia during the working day.
Maybe it was the right decision, and maybe did not make sense to leave before dawn - at 9 am from the Crimea at the checkpoint queue Chongar was not at all - we were less than a dozen cars. Non Donetsk, Zaporozhye, Crimea and Sevastopol.
Compared to the end of spring, checkpoint seriously changed - equipped with flow divider on the cargo and several cars, as well as for buses, installed stationary premises registration and organized site for inspection.
Despite the small number of machines, the process of admission is rather sluggish - customs introduced into the computer data from the vehicle registration certificate and passports of all who cross the border. Once the data is entered, the guards inspect the car, asked everyone to get out and open the doors of the passenger compartment and trunk. Our trunk was full of bags with personal belongings, but to get them and offered for inspection did not ask, just briefly visited and wished a happy journey.
Machines Donetsk numbers asking to drive off the pitch inspection and remove all the things that sufficient carefully inspected.
Trucks are separate corridor and feel, are in the process of registration and inspection even faster than cars. True, most likely the one wagon, which is made right in front of us was empty, so that its inspection did not take long.
Immediately in front of us, very meticulously examined 31st Volga numbers 46 regions of Russia, which was under the roof crowded b / agricultural spare parts. Poor guy made literally break the entire stretch, which countersigned the same type of parts, cut all the boxes, spread all his wealth over a large area around the Volga, carefully examining every piece of metal
Then moving towards Ukrainian checkpoint.
Before leaving a checkpoint should tank directed towards Ukraine.
Ukrainian checkpoint is located a few hundred meters from the Russian. Here, too, there is no queue at all.
Border clearance procedure completely analogous - vehicle registration and inspection certificates with the introduction of data entry into the territory of Ukraine.
No inspection is not carried out, not even asked to open the trunk.
Total entire process took us exactly one hour and at 10 am we were already moving through the territory of Ukraine.
In contrast to enter Ukraine, at the entrance to the Crimea all have, and quite large, the truth is it is completely out of the fur, which are very meticulous "shake" for prohibited to import products, thorough customs inspection and clearance.
Ukrainian tanks directed towards Crimea photograph I did not dare, because surrounding the military with weapons at the ready could perceive it aggressively, given the number of our Sevastopol machines and all taking place in the region of the event. Let me just say that they stand at the checkpoint, which is located just outside the Gulf Sivashskaya.
In Ukraine, we drove another two seriously equipped checkpoints, which are on duty traffic police and the military.
At both checkpoints stopped us, but only checked documents on the machine and enter the data about it in a special journal.
