Highway 180. Federal highway A180 "Narva"

The federal highway M-11 "Narva" (A 180 "Narva") originates in St. Petersburg and ends in Ivangorod at the checkpoint "Ivangorod". The track is in fairly good condition. From Kingisepp to the border - excellent.

The road has one lane in each direction. Since the route is borderline, the traffic on the route is quite dense. Approximately 5 kilometers before Ivangorod, the first passport control point is located (it used to be closer to the city, now it has been moved a little). After this point, the entire right side of the road is occupied by trucks waiting for their turn at the border.

If Ivangorod is not your final destination and you plan to cross the border with a preliminary refueling (in Estonia, the cost of gasoline is 2 times higher), then keep in mind that there are 4 gas stations between the entrance to the city and the Ivangorod checkpoint (3 on the left side and one on right). After passing through passport control at the entrance to the checkpoint, at the checkpoint itself, stand in the far right lane, this lane is intended for Russian cars.

In order not to hang in line at the crossing, try to catch it before 9 am. After 9 o'clock the queue grows before our eyes and by 10 am the entire transition from the Estonian to the Russian checkpoint is densely packed with cars. It is impossible to unequivocally assess the severity of inspection on the Estonian and Russian sides, since it is not necessary at times. They can inspect with dogs, or they can do a cursory inspection. If you arrive at the crossing at 7-8 in the morning, then it will take about 30 minutes to cross the border, perhaps this is the minimum crossing time.

To enter Russia from the Estonian side, there is a preliminary registration in an electronic queue (for leaving Russia, there is such a queue only in the city of Pechery, Pskov region, the Kunichina Gora checkpoint, there is no such queue at other checkpoints). You need to register in the queue, or directly at the border. Registration is paid (6.5 euros, see the registration website for more details) and mandatory, without it you will not be able to get back to Russia. It’s better to register in advance otherwise you will end up in a live queue, and you can stand there for a very long time, especially if you plan to return to Russia on Sunday or immediately after the holidays.

As for the transportation of alcohol and cigarettes to the territory of Estonia, here, in order not to fall under the distribution of buns in the form of additional. payments, it is better to adhere to their rules - 2 packs of cigarettes and a liter of strong alcohol (champagne is for some reason considered a strong drink, but wine is not, you can bring up to 5 bottles) per person. The duty free system at the border is arranged in a rather Jesuit way - it works only in the direction of exit. Accordingly, everything that you bought in a dutik at the border in excess of the norms allowed in Estonia, you must drink and smoke before crossing the Estonian border or pay a fee there. You can get around this moment only on the way back and as follows:

You move to the Russian side, walk back to the crossing and cross the Russian border. You go to the dutik and buy whatever you want, then, without entering Estonian territory, you return back.

If your travel route further runs through Estonia, then keep in mind that the rules of the speed limit are very strictly observed there (in general, all the rules are very strictly observed there) - 50 km / h in settlements and 90 - 110 km / h (where such speed allowed) outside of them. There are video recorders along all Estonian roads (and also marshals ride in cars without special signs) and fines for violation are very large. Permissible limit deviation - 7 km / h. You won't be able to "negotiate" with the police, don't even try.
