Question 5777

When two signs of the same type appear to contradict each other, drivers must obey...

  1. the more restrictive sign.
  2. both signs, since they are of the same type.
  3. neither of the two.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: the more restrictive sign.

When two signs of the same type contradict each other, obey the more restrictive one. In the image, the yield sign and the STOP sign are on the same pole, so the motorcyclist must come to a complete stop before the intersection and then yield. Neither sign is canceled out.
