Question 4882

This panel, placed below a prohibition sign, indicates...

  1. the distance to the start of the prohibition.
  2. the distance over which the prohibition applies in the direction of the arrow.
  3. the extent to which the prohibition applies on both sides of the roadway.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: the distance over which the prohibition applies in the direction of the arrow.

Below the no-parking sign, the “10 m” panel with an arrow pointing right indicates that you must not park along the next 10 m in that direction. If the distance indicated where the prohibition begins, the panel would have no arrow; with two arrows, it would apply on both sides.
