Question 5737

In this case of a contradiction between signs of the same type, which one prevails?

  1. The least restrictive one.
  2. None of them, since in the event of a contradiction the signs are void.
  3. The most restrictive one.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The most restrictive one.

Both signs in the image are posted signs and appear to contradict each other, because one prohibits only parking while the other also prohibits stopping. When signs are of the same type, obey the more restrictive one, so you must not stop or park. Conflicting signs do not lose their validity.
