Question 6870

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

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

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

Below a prohibition sign, this panel with “10 m” and a right arrow indicates that the prohibition applies for the next 10 m in that direction. A distance without an arrow would indicate where it begins, and two arrows with two numbers would indicate how far it extends on each side.
