This article includes an analysis of the possibility of changing current axle load and total weight limits for vehicles depending on the type of the vehicle and the season of the year during a transport of goods with modern vehicles. The weighing control has shown exceeding an actual weight and the axle load comparing to the maximum values limited by federal regulations. Ineffective use of a modern heavy vehicles in a transport of goods forces the construction organizations to break the rules of transporting or acquire special permissions. The limitations of the maximum values for the axle load and the total weight are established for the whole calendar period which is incorrect, since the road structure turns into “the monolith” due to freezing in the winter period. This gives a prerequisite to believe that it is required to take into account the seasonal features of the behavior of road structures while imposing maximum limitations established by federal law. An important factor that has a destructive influence on the road construction is not the load or the weight of the vehicle, but a pressure arising in a plane of a tread pattern on a road surface. The destructive influence on the road pavement could be insignificant with a large weight of vehicle and a certain diameter of tread pattern.
