Stavo guardando in modo casuale le immagini di Google Street View dei confini della Russia con l’UE e ho notato questa strana strada estone che attraversava brevemente il territorio russo e mi chiedo quale sia la sua storia. Il piccolo pezzo di terra è stato successivamente rivendicato dalla Russia dopo il 1991? Inoltre, la strada è aperta oggi? Se vuoi usarlo, hai bisogno di un passaporto? Sono sinceramente curioso. Grazie in anticipo!

I believe you are allowed to use it but never to change direction or move off the road
There’s no border control there. You can cross it via car. It’s not allowed to stop or cross it by foot. There are warning signs about it.

It’s called Saatse Boot
It is because of the border between ESSR and RFSSR. You can cross it only using a motorized vehicle, no stopping allowed. There are warning signs around and the area is monitored by the border guards. You don’t need a passport though.
Nothing spectacular to see there. I drove through (actually, there are 2 strips of road going through russia) that last summer. Some warning signs, cameras, and that’s pretty much it. No border patrol or anything. There’s were rumours that the Estonian government would build another road, avoiding those parts. Still wouldn’t fuck around there, because finding out wouldn’t be nice. Just follow the rules, and you will be fine.
Edit: locals living in that area don’t even notice it. Just drive through, and that’s that.
I wonder what will happen if my car abruptly breaks down in the middle of the road.
